Hey everyone, I wrote a song about something that has seduced us for centuries. The fragrance of soil that wafts in the air just before rain fall - Petrichor... It's also a true story I once got out of a bus in the middle of nowhere, on a highway between two cities because our rickety interstate bus had broken down. As I stood there holding my guitar and luggage and waiting for our rescue vehicle, I found myself standing on the sides of a dusty road, watching the rain, seemingly walking towards us from afar. As the fragrance of the soil rose all around me, I was possessed by a sudden urge to write a song. 5 minutes later and considerably wetter, I was sitting in the next bus writing the lyric, when suddenly a thought hit me! Why does the soil do that? After all, isn't the soil is supposed to be on the earth? Why does it rise up at the mere promise of rain? And that made me think how this would make a perfect love song... because in the presence of certain people, we break all our rules. This is for you 💕 Suraj #ThePerfectLoveSong Ignoring Gravity Lyrics: Ignoring gravity Ignoring gravity Ignoring gravity Ignoring gravity There's a fragrance to the air That curls and spirals around me Of soil, that rises to meet the rain Wilfully, ignoring gravity There's a line where a shower stops If you watch it across a parched road A languid perimeter of raindrops Sensuous, endless, in its approach There's a dance, centuries old Beating like a drum inside me You're the promised storm, Milady I'm the soil, ignoring gravity You're a languid perimeter of raindrops Sensuous. Endless. Approach You've got me Ignoring gravity You've got me Ignoring gravity © Suraj Mani Credits: Vocals and Guitar - Suraj Mani Guitar - Naveen Thomas Written, Composed and Produced by Suraj Mani Mix & Technical Production - Dinkar Nayak Mastering - Vivek Thomas at VTP Studios Song Recorded at Aum-I Artistes Studios Video Animator, Editor - Jobin Sebastian Follow the Journey: Facebook:- https://bit.ly/3emdTEm Instagram:- https://bit.ly/2HX86cn Twitter:- https://bit.ly/363QSCs Mailing-list:- https://bit.ly/3mReUHR

Unfinished Business What is the Sun, without his rays? What is a night, without 2 days? What lights up her eyes, on the hills of east? What is Beauty, without her beast? How sweet can be longing, without real space? How real can be love, without a face? Oh how she blooms, the lily; in his gaze Like unfinished business, from another time & place We've unfinished business, from another time & place Unfinished business, (from) another time & place She whispers these words As she cradles his face "What is the Sun without his rays? What is a night, without 2 days? How sweet can be longing without real space? How real can be love, without this face?" We've unfinished business Now's the Time, and Place... © Suraj Mani Credits: Unfinished Business - Suraj Mani & The Tattva Trip Vocals, Acoustic guitars - Suraj Mani Bass - Dinkar Nayak Electric guitars - Naveen Thomas Written, composed and produced by Suraj Mani Mix - Dinkar Nayak Master- Steve Zavros Video Director- Sumesh Lal Produced by- Aum i Artistes Editor- Alby

I was once asked to write a song for Valentine's Day. Here it is as imagined from the perspective of someone who truly understands love.. Lyrics: It seems to me, from where I'm standin You're truly runnin scared of something Cos this ain't about what you are, or are not doing This is about what you believe in It seems to me, from where I'm standin You'll always lose if you keep wondering So let me tell you something Oh, I do hope you're listening Love's reward is not to find A recipient who's deserving Love's reward, my dear; is love (Which is) the ability to be loving Now ain't that something Ain't that something Ain't that something Ain't that something © Suraj Mani Credits: Ain't That Something - Suraj Mani & The Tattva Trip Vocals, Acoustic guitars - Suraj Mani Bass, Backing Vocals - Dinkar Nayak Drums - John Melvin Acoustic & Electric guitars - Naveen Thomas Written, composed and Produced by Suraj Mani Mix, Master & Technical Production - Dinkar Nayak Video Direction, Storyboard & DOP - Jobin Sebastian, Akhil Venugopal Editor - Jobin Sebastian Produced by Aum-i Artistes Actors- Pooja Athreya Cookie Location courtesy : FeelHome Copyright - Suraj Mani

A song about living in the 'Here' and 'Now" Tathagata: Every now and then, some men Walk this world and Live forever knowing what we don’t seem to understand Unafraid, nay, happy to be just who they are for in the ordinary they’ve seen eternity Tathagata He who lives in the ‘now’ Who knows no other time Tathagata He who lives in the ‘Here’ Who knows no other space Tathagata He who’s learnt the dance of the universe What’s in is out, What’s out is in, What’s in is out Tathata Read the inspiration behind the song... http://www.surajmani.in/tathagata-new...
