Kanneer Poovinte - Another Johnson Masterpiece

Today I am presenting another song composed by the Melody King of malayalam music Shri.Johnson. My earlier post was 'Thane Poovitta Moham'. Johnson is a prominent South Indian composer of film scores who has given music to some of the most important motion pictures of Malayalam cinema. He is noted for his lyrical and expressive melodies together with simple but rich tonal compositions of thematic music. His skilful integration of textual rhythm of the lyrics together with rich tonal arrangement, redefined songwriting in Malayalam cinema, since the late 1980s. In his film scores, Johnson combines native South Indian melodic patterns with the harmonic structure of European classical music and this has attained an expressive form of narration through film score. The song I am presenting here is 'Kanneer Poovinte' from the superhit film 'Kireedam'. Kireedam is a movie that redefined Malayalam cinema about a Keralite youth whose hopes and aspirations are shattered by a combination of fate and human failing.This has been a great composition on the lyrics of Shri.Kaithappram. M.G Sreekumar won the Kerala State Award for the best male playback singer for this song. M.G Sreekuamr is well known for his own unique style in rendition. I have tried to do justice to his wonderful rendition. Song 20

Great job Murali, I can hear the pain in your voice, pretty neat rendition. There is a song similar to this in Telugu, I don’t exactly recollect that now, but your voice is too good. Keep going....

I've no special knowledge of music but all I know is that I enjoyed the song very much. You have sung it your own style and I for one can't think that the original version is any better.
Keeping singing....
