lot of effort. very nicely made karaoke track. Pronunciation in tamil could be improved a bit. For e.g "muL meedhu Enadi thoongach cholgiraay" etc.. innum konjam muyarchi eduththaal romba nalla paNNalaam.

Balaji
came here through Jo
Wonderful job, you have arranged/reproduced the track beautifully, its not easy considering the amount of time one has to spend on right from gettingh chord progression correct down the vocals

Looking forward to hear more from you. Do post our original compositions as well.
