Listening to some nice Tamil songs! 🤭 😃 🎵

@strawberryfieldsforever @mur2501 Thankyou (and thanks to Youtube-dl), this is really beautiful music. As subtitles, (when I try to look at it around 18 min, I enjoyed the music at background before, very nice for working) "[Music]" ^^. But the sound is already very good enough by itself.
@strawberryfieldsforever @mur2501 I didn't noticed song changed, there are subtitle on first one :). I see at 3:35 some camels. Are (I suppose South-East, as the language is Tamil) Indian camels a one or two hump camels please? Two humps one has lot of very hot-preserving hairs during winter, but loos everything during summer too.

😁
Most Indian camels have one hump, while some rare breeds in the city of Ladakh have 2 humps! 😃

@strawberryfieldsforever @popolon
The Dromedary/Arabic Camel (one humped) is found mainly in the deserts of Rajasthan in India they are the hot desert camels. Bactrian Camels (Two humped) are found in the Central Asia(Gobi desert and most of Silk road) and the Tibetan Plateau(Indian part of which is the Ladakh Region - it's not a city!!) They are cold desert camels though the temperature range they live in ranges from -40°C to +40°C.

@mur2501 @strawberryfieldsforever I rided both the one hump when I was really young (<10), this was so high at the top of the hump, especially for some-one about 1m high ^^. I ride the two hump in loss plateau, in inner Mongolia, that's far more comfortable, secured by two humps. I seen other 2 hump in Dunhuang (one of monumental human history with tons of book of Tang, Tibetan, Uyghurs Empires, accumulated during several centuries in Mogao grottoes) in Gobi desert. I seen some other near Beijing toward going Great Wall, around 2005. There are few videos of camels caravans in Beijing around 1900. Mongolians invaded and controlled Tibet and placed their lama (dalai is a Mongolian word meaning ocean) in 1642, so they probably come with their two humps camels too, some lakes still have Mongolian names (-noor/-nur meaning lake) in western Tibet). I know Muslims from Kashmir/Ladakh helped local people to resist to Tibetan-Mongolian invasions at this time, so there was (until Bush era :( ) great respect for Muslim population from Ladakh Buddhist. I seen few texts about lot of interreligious marriages, where procession goes to buddhist and muslim temples to celebrate it.

Really love this one, and more generally long female voices in Indian music. Don't know if there is a name for this kind of son, in Mongolian music, this is a specific style called ᠤᠷᠲᠤ ᠶᠢᠨ
ᠳᠠᠭᠤ / Уртын дуу (urtyn duu), meaning long voice/long chant.

I don't particularly know it is a style of singing or maybe just how the language is sounds when singing.
Though stretching sounds while singing is a component of Arabic singing.
Here is a fusion of Tibetan, Indian and Arabic singing

@mur2501 @strawberryfieldsforever Interesting. After the description woman like buddhist monk is Nepalese, not Tibetan, but it's name is Tibetan at least in part (Choying Drolma), I listen other music from her, I feel it is halfway between pentatonic Tibetan music and microtonal Indian one, looks like this is really a Nepalese style. I just understand I didn't know Nepalese music at all. If I'm not wrong, Buddha itself was born in Nepal and Nepalese ranjana are still used in some calligraphy in the whole buddhist world, but the main religion is Hinduism.
