I repect your point but personally, my all time favorite has to be GNB



[GCLwins]

TM Krishna is the cream of the cream among Carnatic classical vocalists today. His technique and musical sensibilities are so phenomenal as to be almost superhuman.

There are singers who have flawless structure like Semmangudi, singers with speed and power like GNB, singers with complexity and intelligence like Seshagopalan, and singers who rule on neraval and RagamTanamPallavi like KV Narayanaswami, but TM Krishna combines ALL their strengths with astonishing precision.

One of the best.

[TheCarnaticmusician]

@GCLwins I dont think TMK has GNB's power of speed. He stretches a lot of his music in songs. If you listen to GNB, all of his music is very fast paced.

[GCLwins]

@TheCarnaticmusician - Yes GNB had exceptional speed, but by some accounts that also led to a loss of shruthi in his final years. TMK can bring exceptional speed when he wants to, but can just slow it down drastically in some ragas like Neelambari (Amba Neelayadhakshi) to achieve exactly the opposite effect. His control is quite remarkable.

[Prasad92751]

What I meant to say was, actually, that was what I meant to say.

[Prasad92751]

I cried in pain.

[1976pallavi]

WOW!!! This raaga aalapana of Bhairavi is absolutely wonderful. TM Krishna 's style is very appealing. He has brought out all of the typical sanchaaras of Bhairavi ragam beautifully. Bhairavi is a tough raagam to sing.

[AdiVenk]

What a wonderful and classical Bhairavi!! TMK is truly a genius!

[astrohari25]

All that a singer needs in TM Krishna & a good lesson on accompaniment by UKS.

[sasa110]

He came to melbuorne last year, and thoh i havent been to many carnatic concerts, his was the best i'd been to. His voice has great depth, bhava and flexibility. I hardly felt the 3 hours pass and felt so sad when it ended! He's coming to Sydney in June and I can't wait! I really think he's one of the best out there!

[uchoob00]

This song was a big hit in the west at one time. Now they only sing it in India

[cassanato]

hahahahahhahahahhahaha

funniest you tube comment ever!

[karthiksuresh2000]

He is probably unaware that there is a word called SOWKYAM in carnatic music.... Technically good though...

[ss8791]

Do you know what is sowkhyam?

It was wholly present in his rendering.

Only very few intellectuals can relish it .

First, try to understand the essence of music.

[vgguha]

ss8791 Very true that only few intellectuals can relish it. Unfortunately you dont belong to that few

[SunRaIV]

Me from Europe: what you mean with SOWKYAM ?

[worlddominator62]

Very very nice, I just don't particularly like so many microphones set up

[ranjithkh]

awesome... this is music.

[whitethursday]

Where Can I find more of this kind of music . I have fallen in love .

[sukkot54]

enter Carnatic in you tube, but look at Kiranavalli, Bombay Jayashree, TM Krishna, M.S. SUBBALAKSHAMI, are good places to start.

[sasa110]

wow...thanks so much..hardly see videos of tm krishna on utube! He's so good!

[VaarakiW]

Any Idea as to when this was?

[shanks0817]

This concert is from 2007 Thyagaraja Aradhana Festival @ Thiruvaiyaru and telecasted twice in Podhigai Channel in July' 2007.

[razorblade42069]

love it. would you happen to know, I saw concert footage where as the singer sang, men, in a frenzy, would approach the stage and throw money in the air & at the stage. I am not sure if it was a Krishna concert?
