That cracked tone is basically him singing like a old person that he respects .
@Jacobs John he is trying to sing like grandma
@Jacobs John oh🥰 thanks 💗
Its a lamenting tone
Yes he is @joey
He is singing like how his grandmother used to describe the events.
Some comments were straight fu*ked up.
I repeat this is TAMIL not Hindi. And fyi Tamil is the one of the Oldest language still spoken today in this era!!
This mv has subs Joey!
Yes you are right tamil is world's mother language
Who is saying this is hindi this is madurai tamil which is very old
@@hemeshwarreddy6403 on the right of the screen there are comments passing which are saying Hindi
agreed
Not one of the oldest language... It is the oldest language
came across this song 4 days ago and yes it is on loop ...such a good song
Basically that scratchy voice is of grandma's telling about her grandson. The whole song is about how ancestors safeguard and lived along with nature and passed it to next generation and it is our duty to safeguard as they did and pass it on to next generation.
That scratchy voice is called as Oppari .. In Tamil Nadu ( india) they use to sing this for mourning.
You finally did!!!! Thank you 💕💕💕💕
This is in the Tamil Language, one of the oldest language in the world. This song is about nature, life, farming, living as one with nature just as how the ancestors of our land lived and also how the animals are also inheritors of this world. The guy changed his voice to resemble a traditional song which is used among Tamil speaking people to lament the death of someone. In this song they are lamenting the loss of connection with nature and the traditions our ancestors have shown us.
THERE ARE SUBTITLES
South Asian Language.. Not only spoken in South of India. Many states of India and also across many countries!
rightly said.. but I would like to tell you that Tamil is the official language for 3 - 5 countries in the world but not an official language in the country where Tamil people live,
@@sathyanaudiobooks sri Lanka , Singapore and somewhere in Africa I think Cameroon
It's not one of the, it's the only one oldest living language till now
Oldest language is the sign language, tamil is one of the oldest languages in India.

The raspy voice you were talking about is called Oppari in Tamil.
It is an art form unique to Southern India especially Tamil Nadu. This art form consists of a singer usually a female, singing in a false voice with considerable vibrato and slide notes. It was widely used in funerals. The lyrics would consist of the achievements, memories and good things about the demised person and how much his/her friends miss that person.
It is also used as a medium to spread any bad news in a village (in those days, messages were conveyed to people of a kingdom by singing songs and beating a type of drum called 'Murasu').
The Tamil society was, many years back, split into different cultures with one group of people belonging to an upper caste, educated, wealthy sector, while the other group belonged to a more suppressed and poor socioeconomic class. Oppari used to be one of the art forms of the latter. Luckily such socioeconomic disparity and diversity is becoming less common in this modern era.
Even the people belonging to the upper class during those days have their own artforms which are also very highly celebrated in India called 'Carnatic music and hindustani'
India has such wide diversity of music and in this era people are more open minded and everybody is starting to appreciate every art form in India. This multi-religious, multi-casteic nation has helped us witness a large number of different types of music forms. Thanks for reading. Your reaction was great.

Hey, love your comment...its very enlightening...I was just searching for some analysis of the music video due to my curiosity of culture. Can you please decode the song( its message and visuals).❤
There are English subtitles available. It's a very meaningful song.
At 5:50 someone commented the song to be Hindi! Nooo... It's a TAMIL SONG. One among the world's first languages to be spoken till date!! Tamilans give a Likee👍
Stop saying one among blah blah. Thamizh is the first language. If a Thamizhan like you say things like this, then how will the truth come out?
@@StarkEdits11 This is Tamil not Telugu or Malayalam , singing girls in Tamil Nadu, while as a Tamil I can’t understand it a bit , Because this is Nadutamil and I am Eelamtamil
@@deutsches_mapping_karten I know it's Tamil. I'm just bashing him for saying Thamizh as " one among the first languages" instead of "the first language of world."
This song is so amazing and I am sure it touches our DNA where all human beings are a part of one source and nature belongs to all the creatures of the world not just human. Tamil is the oldest language in the world. So no doubt it connects rightly with every human. Thanks for the review
Wonderful comment Bro

Pls like comments which say, it has English subtitles*.... He should know the meaning to understand the feeling
My forehead vein popped when someone in the stream chat mentioned Arivu is singing about mad bit***s. Bruh.
No he was saying that there are lots of women in the music video
The scratchy voice is a representation of an aged villager who explains about the pain. The song had loads of meaning in it.
Here is one of viewers explanation

Hi Guys... First of all, thank you so much for your genuine reaction. Also, as an Tamilan, I have my responsibility to explain this song with the exact meaning which is missing in the English subtitles.
“Parai” & “Murasu” (Musical instrument) is played in the beginning of the song.
“Parai” & “Murasu” is purely belongs to Tamil tribes (everyone thinks it's an African music played in the beginning) but it's not, followed by they showed “Salangai” wears in both the legs & hands which is followed by the Tamil tribes to express their feelings by the way of dance. This is mostly during auspicious moment, festival, wartime etc.,. Hope you have seen Salangai” wore in “Bharatnatyam” which is a major form of Indian classical dance that originated in Tamil Nadu. Bharatanatyam is also one of the oldest classical dance traditions in India which is often are used to express Hindu religious stories and devotions.
So all this shown in the beginning of the song to make positive vibes. And then the soil is shaking. That means, the land is shaking/hearing/feeling/enjoying to the music. And the girl opens her hand from hiding and coming out to say what is emerging right now... rest is the song...
Grandpa is called as “Thatha” in Tamil
She is also singing “Cuckoo Cuckoo” hope everyone know it's a bird. But which bird? The answer is given in the next line. “Annakili Annakili” which is a name that has Tamil origin for girl/women and also it's name of the bird as well which is seen widely in Tamil Nadu 50 years back and now no more because of the expansion of development like Cellphone tower, the loss of forests, plains and other natural systems into agriculture, mines, and urban developments, the draining of swamps and other wetlands, and logging reduce potential habitat for many species
Let's move on further, somehow now you got the context of the song but still the subtitles are not the exact meaning represented in English which caused not understanding the deep message.
So the song start with saying Grandpa weeding out the fields and he finds a kingfisher bird in the trunk hole. The frog is swimming in the water. And here lyrics says the caterpillar is sister. How come? 🤷♂️ Because frog eats all kinds of worms except caterpillar since it has a toxic body condition. So caterpillar can go and stay near the frog without fear. This is the concept of these lyrics...
Further, the rapper is singing that my grandma’s has shrink bag (wallet) with betel (Paan) and nuts (Supari) which we have seen already in our life. And then he is telling his own lifestory about his grandma which you can refer the subtitles.
Now the girls is saying that our ancestors left this soil with all these blessings. Our forefathers lived across the river banks and did fertile fields. So at that time, every birds and animals felt safe and happy. Our ancestors also fertile the fields across the river and live happily. She also say that the lakes and ponds belong to everyone, not only for humans that includes birds and animals.
During middle of the song, especially, when the male singing part comes, it is consider as the Mother Nature is singing or saying that “I planted fives trees, Nurtured a beautiful garden, My garden is flourishing, Yet my throat remains dry” that means the Mother Nature gave us 5 element. They are Earth, Space, Water, Air and Land, then why are you still struggling to survive in this world? Because we have failed to save and look after nature. That's why people suffer from not being able to live with nature everywhere in the world. Everyone thinks that this guy is enjoying and dancing 🤦🏻♂️that's not the actual meaning of the video.
To conclude the song... the Mother Nature is also asking (when male singing part) ... This is a serious statement “What the matter my dear? my sugarcane? my grandson? and then it says “Bitter Gourd in my canopy, it has given us seeds, Left by our mom and dad... (By the time they shows the old man smiling and feeling happy) Everyone thinks that they are Farmers or Someone came without meaning... actually they are all our ancestor, they left the seeds through our mom & dad... so what is meant by “Seeds” (it's a hidden message) the exact meaning of “Seeds” represent the “Current modern lifestyle” who failed to save the mother nature. In result, Air pollution, Water pollution, poor management of waste, global warming, growing water scarcity, preservation and quality of forests, biodiversity loss, and land/soil degradation etc we face today.
Mother Nature is crying and lamenting to express the own grief and also want to share and assuage. Because of this strong message, this album got very popular all over the world.
At the end of the song, they show the group of people which is a root of how humans diversified from our ancestors to till date.
Thank you once again for your valuable time to read this lengthy message to get understand about this song 🙏🏼 ❤️ from Canada
6:32 the man is literally spitting out facts! Talking bout how their ancestors left this place cuz of discrimination 📈💯
Listening to this song without understanding the meaning is equivalent to having your food without your taste buds ON..
Even i cannot understand anything but im vibing
Im marathi
True🔥
arivu 🔥🔥the lyrics has lots of meaning
The 2 parts where scratchy voice came is representing old woman singing. It's called "Oppari" art form and it's performed at funerals by old people of village in Tamil culture.
He does the 'scratchy voice' when he's quoting his grandmother.
The title “Enjoy Enjaami” has so much of meaning.
To the people who are unfamiliar about the title, “Enjoy” is combination of two words, En + joy (thaayi), narrated by the Rapper Arivu. “En” means “My” in tamil, "thaayi" is actually "Mother" in Tamil. Combinedly it is "My Mother" ... “Enjaami” is combination of two words, En + Jaami. “En” means “My” in tamil, “Jaami” is actually “Saamy” it means “God” in Tamil, combinedly “My God”.
“My God” i.e. "Enjaami" is how elderly people call their grand children or their loved ones in Tamil
Culture which is so so cute to hear that.
Even the farmers and labours use to call their Masters (Landlords) as "Enjaami" as a respect giving.
Likewise singer Arivu is called everytime as “Enjaami” by his Grandmother Valliammal affectionately in real
life.
That respected Grandmother Valliammal is shown in this ENJOY ENJAAMI official video song at the end … take a look… ROCK ENJOY ENJAAMI…
Dude please do one more video after watching the subtitles on so that you can get to know about this song better coz it has such a good message in the song
This song was mostly made to enhance the importance of the South Indian culture, its a tamil song with such a great lyrics that teaches us that as the world is evolving we are forgetting about the importance of the soil, land, forest and traditions handed over to us by our ancestors.Especially talking about deforestation and also about the toll it takes on the farmers.
I like South Indian culture more than North Indian culture.
Don't spread wrong facts. It's not made to enhance south indian culture. This song is purely Tamil culture and if not, it shows Indian culture. The other south Indians can't benefit by saying this song as south Indian culture. Like wtf is wrong with you? Why are you guys credit stealing?
the male voice modulation is when he is singing on behalf of his old/ancestor grandmother who is sharing her perspective on earth and how it helps us
From Kerala ❣️🤩🤩
This song is a dedication to the Tamil ancestors. The format is called OPPARI. Its the Tamil version of a ODE. Oppari is a song sung at funeral. It's an ode to nature.
Interesting to see a music producers perspective on my countrys music..the song is in tamil language btw..The instrument is an accordian , we call it harmonium
Well, Harmonium does looks like Accordian but the personality is really really different imo. Harmonium has a mode melodic and peaceful... Kinda like a nostalgic vibe to it. Well, Accordian also has it but... What should I say... it's a bit different
This video is a product of A R Rahman's production.. you can't predict any rhythm in his work. And that's the beauty of it😊
DEI this is not music by Ar Rahman....the music composer is Santosh Narayanan! Santosh music Rhythm and beats is far more better than your so call Edm Arr.
@@ramanandhadas8374 I know this music is not composed by AR rahman.. but the production is his..
It’s not his production too. It’s by moca studios guys just Google plz
@@Jaekln I think I did. Even 2 years ago I checked facts before writing on the internet.
From Wikipedia-
Enjoy Enjaami" (transl. Enjoy, My dear /Enjoy, M'lord[1]) is a Tamil-language song recorded by singer Dhee featuring Indian rapper Arivu and Indian producer Santhosh Narayanan. It is written and sung by lyricist Arivu, Dhee debut single, composed and arranged by Narayanan under the music label/management Maajja, an independent platform launched by Indian producer A. R. Rahman.[
Joey - you have a great clarity of thought and articulation. Like your review.
Context: Tribute to forefathers of the land
Coarse voice: Its a folk form of lamenting at funerals called Oppari
That scratched tone is how professional mourners sing at deaths ... its very eerie..makes one cry harder. It's almost a way of announcing someone's death. They say good things like how much they'll miss the dead person...so that his spirit can hear. It's called oppari...mainly practiced in Tamil Nadu villages
Tamilanda 💪💪
🔥🔥 verithanam
Edhu tamilan gethuna, olagathuku teridu pathiya🔥🔥🔥
This song has a huge backstory
Glad you react to this Masterpiece Tamil song (the oldest language in world). I am Tamilan too but not from India. The voice texture you caught taken back is called OPPARI singing tunes. This normally sang by elderly people in a wake (funeral normally). It is the form of expression of pain from heart for loss of life. In this song though, it was for the pain of loss of heritage and nature. Normally many people who have empathy soul will start tears up hearing that tunes unknowingly.
Every 10 comments you see a tamil proud of his culture explaining what the song is about, not criticizing anyone just pointing it out.
This is my first Tamil song i know and i ❤️😘
search for ilayaraja symphony... you will discover another world of Tamil music
@@BalaChennai wow! That's a nice suggestion!
You can't enjoy this song fully without reading subtitles
That change in his voice was he singing in his grandmother's voice. This song is basically about farmers and our ancestors who worked so hard to make this earth a great place to live but they are not given the due respect that they should get.
The first time he sings in his grandma's voice the lyrics go - I planted trees and made a garden. The garden grew to be very beautiful but my throat still remains dry. Its basically his grandmother mourning.
This song has really meaningful lyrics.
joey the instrument you were thinking about was i guess an old indian instrument called "SHENAI" which was there since the MUGHAL EMPIRE in india from the 17th to 18th century during the reign of emperor Aurangzeb. the shenai sounded very irritating to him so he banned it everywhere. but now after the mughal empire ended, the shenai is still used today.
@@i.loveyou he said it wasnt an accordion. it also kinda sounded like that but idk tbh. shehnai was my closest guess.
It's actually parai from south India
This song is about their home land, the importance of it and their ecosystem and the guy when he sings with a scratchy voice he's mimicking a old lady
Thats drums are called parai that's South India's traditional musical instrument
Subscribed just because of this Tamil song
Turn on subtitles.... deeep meanings
Male Rapper name is Arivu he is really good at his work. Female singer is Dhee one of the versatile singer in down South India. Please do check and React Arivu's " Vaathi Raid" Video. He has nailed it
Love from Malaysia.Wishing a prosperous Tamil new year wishes.Tamizh putthandu vazhthugal.♥️
Its about her grandma's story of landless farmer oppression which her people suffered!
That scratchy old voice represent his grandma's voice
Try listenin to it with the subtitles and u will get even more obsessed with the song ..its a tamil song which I am really crazy of rite now cuz it's an amazing effort put forth to enhance the tradition,customs,afforestation and about the struggles of the farmers of south india.
when the man stretches the song it is related to his grandmother calling him and trying to tell her story to his grandson
At the time 8.33 seconds, when you wonder whether he is saying the deepest stuff?.
Yes, he means something very deep that means alot to most of the tamilians.. And the real nature lovers. Who wants to safe guard the nature as it was before..
The writer tries showcase the roots of the origin of the tamil culture and not to forget, from where he has come .. and express deep feel if emotion in a "Oppari(ancient form of lamenting folk song)" to safe guard the nature and to conserve forest and its wildlife..
And when you say the scarchy vocal for the male. Thats the Oppari..
This is an ancient Tamil oppari song. Complete Tamil
5 mins song of 50 years pain
I know right.♥️
This is not just a song, it's a feeling.we should conserve mother Nature is the deep message in this..
You should check the lyrics. Its lit🔥 and has a great historical meaning.
Watch it with the cc turned on. You wont understand but it lead native Tamils to tears.
Joey (Lucky Boy) Nato,
Ya know, if you click on the cc button you get Closed Caption subtitles, right? That's where the translated lyrics of this song reside.
The singer/rapper/writer here wrote this after long talks with his grandmother. Their people are the forest people of southern India who have been living in those forests for tens of thousands of years, since before agriculture became a thing in the world, perhaps even before spoken language became a thing. Yet, they are losing all rights to those very same forests.
This is a soft protest song in the voice of his grandmother who, along with others, spent 20 years shipped off to perform manual labor in sugar cane fields in another country. She was sent back without any promised money or land. She then went to work in the fields of local farmers in order to be able to afford to educate her son.
Her son went on to become a college professor who raised his own son and paid to educate his son to get an engineering degree, and then to get an MBA. That son chooses instead to follow his heart and became a rapper, singer, song writer who writes protest songs for the local film industry.
Its Tamil, folk song, there are lot of stories in this.
I'm actually interested in him listening to it again after reading some of the amazing comments here. It will give you more context. Like Oppari singing and the whole vibe of Tamil
Sounds beautiful thanku lovely joey always such a pleasure much love an god bless x
8:30
The song is about how we forgot nature, farming and all the essential things. And that instrument is Accordion
Yes see with the subtitles. Beautiful meaningful and touching Tamil song. Proud to b a tamilan and the singers and music producers are from Tamil Nadu our place
Thanks for this joey
basically this song she dedicated to her grandmother
Background is oppari which is done in death ceremony praising the person who died and then consolling them
I am obsessed with this song....
Love from Sri Lanka.....
Enjoy enjaami fans like
It only takes a few seconds to turn on captions.
You can’t appreciate the depth of this song, language and it’s lyrics with your limited background in western pop which in itself is hollow, fleeting and throwaway.

When a song starts and you immediately start shakin' your head to the beat....you know it's a good song...😌😌
Bro it's hard for u to find those instruments bcause they used old tamil instruments which are 2000 to 3000 years old...its the power of the language...
a legend created this song
You should have had the subtitles on. The scratchy voice is the guy differentiating his voice. His grandmother is telling a story in the song so he changed the voice to sound like her
This is Tamil and comes from AR Rahman special production house... It basically says preserve nature, your originality your culture your mother nature, Your ancestors
Very meaningful lines. So deep..
Meaning of Oppari:
Oppari is an ancient form of lamenting in Tamil culture performed (cry singing) by a group of women emotionally when someone lost their loved ones, in which this ancient practice is still exists in Tamilnadu and other states of south India...
Formation of Oppari:
A group of women form a circle holding each other's shoulder and facing each other and cry singing in a funeral spot..
Content of Oppari:
The group of women cry singing the Oppari about the person who passed away, mentioning how good he lived his life in the past, his love towards the family members, his likings, his sacrifice to the family members, his happiness and sorrow, how much the family members loves him too, Praising him for what he did for the nature, everything..
Why Oppari?
Oppari cry singing is not only a way of conveying messages to the public related to the deceased person in a funeral ceremony, but also a scientific way of releasing the stress of the person suffering from the loss of their loved ones. i.e. Psychologically helps to deal with emotions ..
“I PLANTED FIVE TREES, NURTURED A BEAUTIFUL GARDEN, MY GARDEN IS FLOURISHING BUT YET MY THROAT REMAINS DRY” IS A LAMENTING PHRASE USED IN OPPARI SONG USUALLY PERFORMED IN A FUNERAL PLACE IN TAMIL CULTURE.
The song is all about saving animals and natural
So Happy to see you reacting to this mate! Wish u understood the lyrics, it talks about slavery and many more. Thank You for reacting! Been following for a longtime and always love ur attention to detail
6:07 the distortion/scratchiness : He is singing like how his grandmother used to describe the events.
Oh I wish you clicked the CC button during reaction
The part where you have no idea , where the guys voice cracks and sharpens is called " Oopari " , the voice is to bring the deep sadness out

That raspy voice is actually that of an old lady folk singer.
6:05 he was singing like grandma...
its a Tamil song, its " THE DRUMS YOU ARE SPEAKING OF IS PARAI".. very ancient instrument used in tamil culture
Hey bro, that scratchy vocal part is to represent the voice of a old woman singing in grief.
The song is all about the culture.. basically about the struggles.. Etc.. Etc.. And the false voice in which he is singing was like an old lady saying about the pain.. Maybe his own grand mother it seems.. Because in those initial lines, the name of his grandmother was said.. "valliyamma"...
This song talks about how we need to respect nature and live in harmony with nature.
Hi Joey, that sound panned to the left could be a melodica or an accordion? Additionally, this song was composed by a Tamil composer - Mr Santhosh Narayanan - has worked in more than 20 films and counting - creating songs and original background scores.
This ain't Bollywood, and Indian songs and movies are not just Bollywood fyi..
Dhee is the girl singing, Arivu is the guy rapping in Tamil and who also penned this song, recalling the stories (based on what I've understood from the song) of what his grandmother used to tell about appreciating and celebrating their roots and how mankind used to co-exist in harmony with nature - like how man lived to form a civilization.
The 'oppari' mentioned in the comments, are actually laments or wailing/ sobbing due to a sad situation, it jives with the meaning of the song. The meaning of the song can always be found on the internet, and it has deep meanings, it starts off really groovy and all but goes into this melancholic feeling halfway to the end.
Just my 2 cents... Thank you.
This song is all about nature, wholesome expresion of nature.... and this song is from sri lanka
