This mini-page is dedicated to K.J.Yesudas, who has soothed so many
hearts with his inimitable voice. Call him Yesudas or Jesudas or whatever, his
is a voice which lingers on in everyones hearts long after they have heard the
song ! Basically amongst male singers, I like two,
Kishore Kumar and Yesudas. There have been
so many Yesudas clones who've sung quite well indeed, like Jayachandran, Unni Menon,
Unnikrishnan. But quite frankly, you'd agree, there can be only ONE !
I'm not THAT fanatic about Yesudas as I'm about Kishore (a pointer to
which is the fact that I have 240 songs of Kishore but 50 odd of Yesudas) but
still, I just thought of indexing all the songs in my collection. Amongst the
songs are Hindi and Tamil songs. My ideal combination would be an Ilayaraja
composed song sung by Yesudas, that would be heaven !! As for Hindi, he really
didnt get many chances, sung in few films. Quite definitely his best songs are
in Malayalam.
But before you go onto my list of Yesudas songs, here are links to articles on
the man.
