I have read all the delightful reviews presented here on my alltime favourite singer'dasettan', but none have been presented on his mother tongue i.e Malayalam. Although Yesudas has proved with a decade of singing in almost all the languages in India and even in English, that music transcends all language barriers, some of his alltime bests have been in Malayalam. I am sure many would agree with me if I say that the MD's who have been outstanding in bringing out his classical background in malayalam songs have been, the great Dakshinamoorthy swamy and the late Raveendran Master. I have taken the liberty of putting together a list of 10 malayalam songs and these are not in any order of priority but those that I think are his greatest hits.


1) Who can forget his sublime rendering of Nadhabrahmathin from the movie Kattu Kurangu, music directed by Dkashinamoorthy. The ease with which he sings this remarkable song is astounding.


2) The song Kattile Pazhmulam is another one also by Dakshinamoorthy


3) Exhilarating song Eazhu swarangalum from the filim Chiriyo Chiri, Music scored by Raveendran


4) The song sangeethame amara sallapame also by raveendran


5) The national award song Ramakatha from the filim Bharatham scored by raveendran


6) One of the best semiclassical melodies to hit the malayalm filim charts, Pramadavanam from the film His Highness Abdullah, music by Raveendran


7) The be all of Malayalam film song, a song which any aspiring singer in malayalam tends to sing without any success, harimuraliravam from aram thampuran, music raveendran


8) Ethi nidrathan from the film Ayal Kadhyezhuthunnu, Music raveendran


9) Vaalkannezhuthiya, a sweet melody from the filim Paithrikum


10) and last but not the least, Gangae from the yet to be released filim vadakumnathan, where he shows w/o a doubt that age has not diminished his singing prowess in any way, a classicla combination of raveendran and yesudas on ce again, and the last music score done by raveendran prior to his demise.


Its really difficult to pick out just 10 songs. The readers each may have an individual best 10's. Any comments on the above is welcome.
