Most of my friends who has a copy of the latest mixes seem oblivious to the fact that it is missing the song Kadal. Thats because I didnt have the heart to show it to any one. I messed up the lyrics in the second half. It was too mediocre. It is passable but I cringe every time I listen to the last part. Beautifully rendered by Manjari but sloppily written by me. Ok. Enough of whining.
So I decided to redo the song. Perfectionism showed its ugly head again. I called Manjari and booked a time for next week. I am going to Trivandrum to redo the song. This time I will get it right.
How far is too far? I really don't know. But if it is worth putting in my album, it is worth making it right. No regrets.

Dear Rajesh- How exciting!! The creative process continues and your words sound like that of an expectant mother :)
I have only heard the charanam of the song "Kadal" and it was superb! I am sure the rest of the song is OK too - but you want to make it not just OK, but GREAT! Looks like you have already come up with the lyrics that would be better crafted than the previous one. Awesome!
I agree with you- an unseen force is helping you all the way! (Manjari has a date, you are within driving distance from the studio etc. etc.) Make use of it and be appreciative of your own strengths!
I am SO looking forward to the album.
