*******CHARACTERISTICE OF THE BEST SINGER IN INDIA*********
1.MELODY:Jayachandran is melody,i am ashamed of stating about such a great person that "JAYACHANDRAN IS
HAVING MELODY ALSO".But yesudas now and then had it.
2.RANGE:Jayachandran's 90% songs had this characteristic.Let me point out some songs which have some less range
Ninpadangalil
Nunakkuzhikavilil
Bhoolokarambhayute
Yesudas's songs have range but equally there are songs which don't have range.It is like 2 faces of a coin
3.SPEED:There is no speed in yesudas's songs.Noone can show a speedy song sung by him.He tried to sing sometimes
like
pavataprayathil
which have not succeeded since it resembles a conversation.
Jayachandran is superb in speed.
Take for eg the song
pa pa pa pa pa nisa manohari
ma ma ma ma ma vikaramanjari devasundari
To pronounce it properly and sing it speedily yesudas is not at all perfect.Jayachandran was fully perfect.
4.VIBRATIONS:Vibrations are made by both singers.Both are equally good in it.Jayachandran's
vibrations in prayam nammil was beautiful.
5.DEPTH:Jayachandran has much depth than yesudas.In depth yesudas is nil in front of jayachandran.Even in a simple
padam like karivarivandukal kurunirakal in DEVARAGAM take the part "kaikalo-o-o-
jalapushpavalayangalo-o-o-o-o"
He has the depth there.In all songs this is coming into picture.As Ajith show above,yesudas was unable to maintain raaga
at high pitches is About this aspect.
6.SOFTNESS:Even now when he is not getting chances as yesudas he maintains the softness like the song
Ariyathe ariyathe-e in RAVANAPRABHU.But Jayachandran is not the master of this it is Hariharan.But Yesudas is
nothing in this,he is always noty soft.But some songs like Kattile pazhmulam thandil ghe approached it.Jayachandran and
Hariharan are 2 good in it.
7.VERSATILITY:Altogether more versatile is Jayachandran but due to luck yesudas was more famous.It does not mean
that jayachandran is less versatile.He was not recognised as he should be.
If Jayachandran was given more chances he would have shown up the world.But when politics or other pressure comes
against a singer what the most versatile singer can do?
That is why i consider him as most versatile.If he should have remained there in bollywood,he would have been famous
like his students.
Jayachandran is the most talented singer ever India had seen.
Sri P JAYACHANDRAN is undoubtedly the 'best singer' India has ever produced.
he has proven his potentiality in all the major characteristics needed for a vocal singer.
1. melody
2. range
3. speed
4. vibrations & oscillations
5. depth
6. softness
7 versatality (ability to shine in film music, classical, devotional, semi -classical light music, festive music etc..)
no other singer in India has proven his ability in such diversified kinds of vocal singing!
and nobody can match him in vocal characteristics mentioned above. Other singers may have the first 3 but not the other
ones. Some other singers may have the last 3 but not the initial ones. There has not been a single singer in INdia that has
proven in all the above mentioned vocal characteristics !!

If he is not No. 1 at least he is next to Yesudas. Now he has been sidelined. He still has got unlimited talents and it has to be tapped.

Mr.P.JAYACHANDRAN is a everking and his simplicity is giving good lesson to tamil cinefield to learn.

Who the hell's Rekha P. Nair? Has she been living under a rock all her life?
Characteristics of a good singer - what a ridiculous comparison between Yesudas and Jayachandran
I regret to say both names together.
Yesudas is way way ahead of any singer in India except maybe Mohd. Rafi.
Jayachandran should be born 10 times to reach anywhere near Yesudas.
I will give just a simple example. In Nakhakshathangal, the two songs Kevalamarthya and Neeraaduvan. I bet you Jayachandran will empty his bowels if he attempts even the initial humming of Neeraduvan.
The person with the list of 7 characteristics has dangerous levels of ignorance and she should be ridiculed very severly for posting such a comparison.

Hello Sam who told you that Jayachandran cannot sing the sort of songs that you specified.Hear 'raagam sree raagam ' .A very difficult song to sing.I think you are a mad fan of Yeusdas.Any way I am also a a great fan of Yesudas. .But to me Jayachandran is on a par with Yesudas.Your lines 'Jayachandran should take 10 births----' is merely out of sheer blind support.Jayachandran in this birth itself is already on a par with him
