Ente Yahova by Kuttiyachan

Ente Yahova is one of those rare Malayalam tracks that manages to feel both fresh and familiar the moment it begins. Alexander Karuvelithara's arrangement gives the track a layered quality that rewards repeated listening.

The voice of Kuttiyachan carries Ente Yahova effortlessly, which is the highest compliment a song can give its singer. a talented ensemble cast gave the film its soul, and Ente Yahova is the song that most directly channels that feeling into music.

In 2020, Malayalam produced many songs, but Ente Yahova was one of the handful that genuinely cut through. There is no right time to listen to Ente Yahova. There is only the moment you press play and realise it was the right choice.

The concision of Ente Yahova — just 3:46 — is part of what makes it work. There is nothing here that should not be. Ente Yahova endures because it was built on feeling rather than formula — and that is the one thing streaming numbers cannot manufacture.
