Beautiful Telugu song by Shankar already lost

[donna]

Hi!

Recently I had to buy the mp3 of the Mahesh Babu movie Dookudu for the title song, sung by Shankar - the combination of Shankar and Mahesh is always a pleasure! We don't usually buy mp3s, we prefer audio CDs, this one came with 8 film scores. Well, my husband found real treasure yesterday on his day off. A 2011 Telugu film called Priyudu which was a huge bomb right from the first screening. The md is "new" from what I can find out, his name is Mohan Jona (can't find much information about him). If anyone has a chance, find the soundtrack online and listen to the last song, Cheliya Cheliya, sung by Shankar. I had goosebumps, I could not believe everything he did with his voice in this song. Sorry, but please remember I can't understand the words as I don't know any Telugu. We listen as thought the voice is an instrument, not that I am being dismissive of the vocals in any way at all. It is the power of music, a song in a language you don't understand can bring you to tears or send chills down your spine, it is an amazing experience. Then there is the fact that Shankar recorded this song, for someone new, and quite obviously gave it his all. Naturally, one begins to wonder what else is out there that is being missed.

fond regards,
donna

p.s.
listening to Cheliya Cheliya now, getting completely lost.....
