Yeithoa Ninaivugal - Memories of Another Day

[Oldposts]

Raj / Saravanan -

Thank you for your patience! I don't aspire to get the data or lyric right as much as I strive to keep remembrance well-oiled...

And you guys are amazing memory-mechanics!

[Oldposts]

Naaz....Ur poongothu reminds me of this...

Ponnenbado Poo venbado kaadal XXXX
Kalyana XXXX

Alas most the words of this SPB number fail my rusted memory, could anybody supply the missing lyrics ? I am sure Saravanan would come to my rescue. The charanam especially is a beautiful takeoff by SPB........Help!!!!!

[Oldposts]

Naaz, 'Neeya azhaithathu'
is a duet by SPB and SJ. MD: IR .I haven't heard this song post 84

[Oldposts]

Saravanan........I share ur perception on the Kunkumam song..right from the first time I saw the film sequence I am still wondering how Nigar thilagam could do such a fantasic lip sync for TMS's rendition!!!!

And I have always loved the slow lilting caressing songs and nothing is a more perfect example from the yester years...

Pon Enben Siru poo enben SJ/PBS- PK Magal?

Listen to this song all alone on a starry moonlit night with a nip of blossom in the air......

[Oldposts]

Thaen Sindhudhey Vanam: As Raj said, it is from PoNNukku Thanga Manasu starring Sivakumar and Jayachitra drenched in rains... The owner of lovely tune GKV used this in Telugu and later came to Tamil and Kannada. Tel-version was an soothing solo by PS. Anayasamaaga paaduvaar :-)

Janakan Pon Maane is by SPB+PS from Oru peNNin kadhai (this also tuned by GKV; all songs are hit sung by PS with SPB and PJ). Aruna and Sumathi acted in this song seq with a newcomer in between. Sudhakar and Rathi were the lead pair.

Mayakkum Malai Pozhudhey Nee Po Po: As Raj mentioned, it is lovely duet by Jikki and AM Raja. I listened to the same song in Gangai amaran's music prog some time in 1995 where Jikki sung the song with her son Mahesh (100/100 same voice of AMR). The song featured MGR with "Meesai" G. Varalakshmi :-)). She never allows MGR to touch her hahahha

Niththam Niththam Oru Puththam Pudhiya Sugam: Superb solo by TMS for the energetic hero Jaishankar from Nootrukku Nooru (dir: KB). Music by the ever-melodious V.Kumar. TMS sings as if he acts in that song... superb mannn
Naan Thedinaen...

Moham Vandhu Muththam: is from Nermai by PS (Solo, I think)

Mythila, Raj, Saravanan, Subbu, Surya -

Thank you for joining this OMNIbus of memories, medleys, and "mis"placed lyrics...This community of Lost & Found songs is, as Saravanan said, a real "solai" for those of us in the (tamizhilla) "paalai". I am just happy to recall these songs, it is like having a conversation with a long lost friend!
(This is also the closest I've been to Vividh Bharati in more than a decade :-))

Surya - VON was by MSV. It had another fine duet "Vaendum Vaendum Indha (or Ungal?) Uravu, Vennpaniththendral Ulla Varaiyil"... and with that...

I can feel the internal tape spool...and spool...

[Oldposts]

Surya/Subbu/Naaz/Raj/others: Excellent going. I believe sigappu sooriyan is by MSV. Samudhra raaajakumaari, vEndum vEndum undhan uravu, thangachchi siriththaalE, pachchai vanna megam kondu, are all good MSV numbers. Many thanks for bringing back memories. The songs in Thirisoolam were great too -- 1) kaadhal raani katti kidakka 2)irendu kaigal naangaanal 3) Malar koduththEn kai kulunga vaLaiyal ittEn etc. Is number 3 from Thirisoolam?

[Oldposts]

m4e: yes, it is from Thirisoolam. So is

5. Rukku Rukku Rukkuru rukkuru rampam pam pam pam

[Oldposts]

Surya,
Moham Ennum Ragam padum - Elaikum Kalam Varum - V Kumar.
This movie also has another melodious SPB Solo - Oraiyram Karpani Noorayiram Sindhani. It is a class song.

[Oldposts]

Surya, Number 4 is good too. I am unable to recall the tune of Number 5, however. I sure can visualize Sivaji and his immortal thoppai even now.

[Oldposts]

The lyrics of "Ponnenbadho Poovenbadho" are as follows:

Ponnenbadho poovenbadho kaadhal penne
Kannaana Kannenbadho

Kaaviyame paadum kannil ragasiyam thudikkindradhu
Oviyampol aadum nenjil adhisayam pirakkindradhu
Idaiyenna idaiyo kodivandha malaro
Azhage uyire poochcharame

Mogaththile vaadum ullam pudhumaiyai rasikkindradhu
Moodupani vaadai thendral ilamaiyum kodhikkindradhu
Iniyenna thadaiyo inikkindra kaniyo
Varuvaai tharuven idhazh rasame


Wonder what movie this is from - I've forgotten, even tho' I remember the lyrics so clearly!!

[Oldposts]

Have to mention this song "Sugam sugam, adhu thunbamaana inbamaanadhu" by Suseela from "Thangai" - absolutely unforgettable rendition - the charm & innocence is really overwhelming! The lyrics also portray a higher form of love which is very refreshing to hear.

[Oldposts]

Raj- why do you torture me thus? Ever since I noticed your mention of Pon enbatho poo enbatho this afternoon, I have been in another world— a world far way, in time and in place- oh the exquisite bliss that the memory gives- fleeting images of schooldays with Thenkinnam and Thayir saadham at 7.45 PM—and vacations in my village with hot afternoons glued to Radio Ceylon—Oh, why does one ever grow up?
Paadi paadi paarthen—what a spellbinding song it is—among my favourite SPB solos ever- evalo rasichu rasichu paadi irukkiraar- how his voice caresses, pouts, cajoles, sulks, smiles, yearns in turn in different lines-
Pon enbatho

Kaathal pennae
Kannana kann enbatho

Thiru Vadapalani Films’ Annaparavai-1980 starred Srikanth, Sudhakar, Latha & Radhika. Latha who was still acting as heroine at that time, did a surprise act by appearing as Radhika’s mother in the film. Music was by R Ramanujam. Other songs that became popular from the film were ‘Gopala yaen sir’ by MV & chorus and by SJ.

Raj- inikku officela naan senja thapukkellam you are solely responsible!

[Oldposts]

Rebby, lovely song -- ponnenbadho poo-enbadho.

I finally got the tune after some difficulty!
This is unbelievable.

Is the music by S-G?

[Oldposts]

Oh, sorry Rebby, didn't notice that you have already posted the lyrics! Wonderful song, isn't it?

I seem to have missed mentioning the song that SJ sang in Annaparavai- it goes 'Aadi padhinettu'.

[Oldposts]

Saravanan, yes I remember Annaparavai. Did R.Ramanujam compose music for any other movie?

[Oldposts]

Music4ever, I am "cut-pasting" from what I wrote in the VJ chronolgy, while dwelling on the lovely VJ solo' Thamizh vendhan Pandiyanin angam' from Ananda Bhairavi-1978.

Rangasami Ramanujam is the younger brother of Rangasami Parthasarathy (of Oriental Records fame). Before settling in the U.S. and embarking on a flourishing business in marketing music, Parthasarathy had composed memorable music for films like Magadhalanaattu Mary, Kalyana Mandapam, Avan Piththana, Paalmanam and Kalyana Oorvalam.

Ramanujam was born the last of five children and grew in a household where music was loved and nurtured. Unfortunately, he could not be as successful as his illustrious brother. Ananda Bhairavi was his first film, and he gave a brilliant account of himself. His next film was Annapparavai-1980. Annapparavai had that
spellbinding SPB solo-‘Ponnenbatho poovenbatho’. MV’s ‘Gopala-yen sir’ became an instant hit. SJ’s ‘Aadi padhinettu’ was another catchy number.
Ramanujam’s next film was the MGC Sukumar- Vanithasri starrer Aval Oru Kavariman, which doesn’t seem to have been released. The film had some good songs like ‘Pallavai naan paada’(VJ) and ‘Poonthendral kaatraaga poonjolai vandaaga’(PS, Jolly Abraham?). Another stillborn film for which Ramanujam wasted his efforts
was Puththampudhunayagan. I have heard that in the aftermath of MGR’s demise, Ramanujam brought out a cassette on the Puratchi Thalaivar, which did brisk business. Ramanujam has several devotional albums to his credit.

All the songs in Ananda Bhairavi are truly memorable- ‘Umayavaley Mariyamma, varam tharuvaai Mariyamma’ in the great S Varalakshmi’s brigha-laden tenor is an aural treat. And while ‘Sirithaai- andha sirippil oru mogam’ is an all-time favourite SPB-PS delight, ‘Kodi kodi ennam adhu kondu vandha sondham’ is a breezy TMS-PS duet.

[Oldposts]

Saravanan: Much indebted to you for your response.

[Oldposts]

Surya, Raj -

Thanks for the details and ditties.
Sigappu Sooriyan also had this MVD-VJ duet: Adi Mundhanai Pandhada Vandhale Semmangani...

[Oldposts]

raj -

I factored in current day inflation :-)
Thanks for the SES confirmation.

[Oldposts]

‘Janakan pon maanae’ is from Pennin Vaazhkkai, not Oru Pennin Kathai.

‘Moham vandhu mutham ketkkum raathiri’ is definitely a JC-PS duet. I think it is from Perumai, not Nermai.

Moham ennum ragam paadum is from Ezhaikkum Kaalam Varum. Not sure abt. the MD, perhaps V Kumar.

Poonkodiyae Poonkodiyae is a great SPB-SJ duet from School Master.

Megamae thoodhaaga vaa is a lovely SPB-PS duet from Kannan Oru Kaikkuzhandhai

Mohana Punnagai oorvalamae- class act by KJY-Uravu Solla Oruvan


Naaz- I know you are a perfectionist, but addressing us in alphabetical order is carrying it too far : )))))))

[Oldposts]

Saravanan....I am hoping that u did a decent job at the office today........:-)And thanks to you and Rebby for that lyrics and the class write up on Ramanujam.

BTW I had the very same memories particularly on Radio Ceylon. Right from 7:00 AM it used to be a treat, starting with Pongum Poompunal....Saravanan gnabakam irukka????? Some of the fantasic morning songs included Saptaswaram Punnagaiyil Kandaen(SPB/VJ from Nadagame Ulagam), Vaa Ponmayile(SPB from Poondalir)....the list is endless. I have associated morning with these songs!!!!! One more song which I had previously posted on this thread but couldnt get the film name was the classic
Engey Unnai Kandaal Looda Nenjil kondattam(SPB/SJ)....Konjam film name sollunga.Would luv to hear this song ....:-(

Some of the KJY songs which I have permenantly associated with Ceylon Radio are:

Gangai Nadhi Oram Raman Nadandaan(KJY/VJ Film??)&

Eriyile Oru Kashmir Roja

There used to be the fantasic Sunday Spl programs...peru marandupochu..compered by K S Rajah... a top ten song list...I still remember the Sippi Irukkudu song being No 1 for weeks no end!!!!!!

I am now lost in that mist of time.......and as u put it right why at all did we grow up????????There now I hear the faint strain of SJ and malaysia singing..

Malargalile Aaradhanai
Maalai neram..............

[Oldposts]

Wanted to add a footnote to the effect or rather an omnibus statement...my post is for everyone just that I got carried away as if I am having a conversation with Saravanan..........BTW thanks to one and all who recreated the late 70's early 80's for me!!!!


And just in time another SPB solo

Azhagiya Sennira Vaanam
Adile In Mugam kandaen.........

[Oldposts]

Nadagame ulagam! Ah, memories! This was the 1st film I saw, dragged along with a bunch of protesting kids to see the hulk of K R Vijaya doing serious damage to our car's hood (one of our cars had gone 'shooting' to Ooty, and to go in the same car to the theatre was someone's warped notion of social status) in a dance sequence. Just for a nanosecond appearance of our crusty white ambassador..

As you can see, my initiation into the world of cinema was anything but memorable. Worse was to follow - 'aattukkara alamelu', 'varuvan vadivelan', 'annan oru koyil', 'benz vasu'... Sensing all this was turning me senile and movie-phobic and that I deserved a better introduction to cinema, my uncle took me to see 'Elippathayam' on a 1st day show at Quilon that had me sprinting at the sight of him for several months since.

Sorry folks for the intrusive digression, you're doing a wonderful job bringing back some cherished memories... keep it flowing..

[Oldposts]

Saravanan -

Trust you to notice my little quirks, especially when it comes to a long list of names...
Here's hurling "perfectionist" back at you!

[Oldposts]

There was a :-) after the second line. The page ate it up!

[Oldposts]

Naaz :))

Raj: Today, I refuse to be drawn into to your trap! engey unnai kandaal kooda- no- no- I don't want to think abt. it--help!- yekkam theera serthukkolven--from the film Chithira sevvanam- I'll think abt. it tommorow-safe- it is a holiday!

Today evening- Dubaila Star Show iruukkey! I'm going-- Hoping to have fun.

[Oldposts]

Naaz,

1. Is it not "parangi pazham pazhutha pazham" or the order you mentioned? anyway aedhO oru pazham :-)... Naaz, I think the dance was by Jayamalini Or is it "Nilavu neram..."? Thalai mudi narachu pochu Naaz :-((

Though am mad after PS's voice, I literally hate this song... not just too much double meaning song, it did not come out well for me to say WoW :-(

2. "Anbu Megame": A small note on this. Engamma Sabadham came out when Jayachitra was at peak and she was lovely in the song seq. In her very early "malarum ninaivugaL" of Madras DD, she chose this song highlighting that it was one of the early bird songs to promote "slow motion" techniques of film gimmicks. She and Sivakumar formed a lovely pair, I believe. Fyi, yesterday "AlaigaL", a popular mega serial in Sun TV got over with "subam". JC was in one of the main roles as "Savithriamma". She still maintains good acting talents with expressions but amamamamamaaa her figure... Thaanga mudiyalada saaami (in Koundamani's language) :-))

3. In Pallandu vazhga, for the same heroine Latha, 3 different singers sang PS, VJ and TKK, but KJY was retained for MGR in all the duets, if am correct.

[Oldposts]

Subbu -

Andha Paata Kaettu 15-20 varusham achchu. Appavey Asinga Pazham-na ippo nichchayam Azhugiya Pazham! :-)

The film is Anbukku Naan Adimai, with Rathi performing some roadside show to distract the crowd from Ranjnikanth's insane plots. In the same film, there was another PS song:
"Ondrodu Ondranom Anbodu...Kondadumum Inbangal Nenjodu..." Do you recall this one?

Pallandu Vazhga was a slightly cheapened remake of Do Aankhen Baarah Haath. Usual MGR, Neraiyya Latha :-)

[Oldposts]

Raj- It is now the right time for indulging in nostalgia at leisure- Here are the lyrics for this lovely song- SJ is scintillating in every line and every endearing expression- SPB is at his naughty best- konjalil oru kaviyam- konja neram nammai marappom-

Dhanasekari Enterprises’ Chithira Chevvanam- 1979 had Srividya in the lead- I think Jaiganesh or perhaps Vijayakumar was the hero. Music was by MSV, and another popular song was VJ’s ‘Pon vanna veenai poonthendral ragam’.

Naaz- No memory travels today?

The memories of those days brings a couple of songs to memory, especially those where female names occur in the song and the folks in our group(I am trying to be purest of the pure!!!) used to sing it standing in the street corner/junction, with our cycles, whenever "our heart throbs" pass by !!!!!

PS: No eve teasing offence committed as IMO the females seemed to enjoy the attention and time given to them!!

One more PS....the last song( Ramba Urvasi..)mentioned was murdered ruthlessly to include the names, appropriate for the occassion!!!

[Oldposts]

Raj: That sinungal is something I cherish too- but didn't know how to put it in words, that's why I skipped it! For that matter, in the very beginning, as SPB sings each line of the pallavi, SJ gives some great reactions, which I am at a loss to know how to write--!

SPB's gentle style is really unforgettable in this song. Really romantic, as are the rest of the words in the song!!

[Oldposts]

Surya -
Wasn't ILU Sujatha from Vidhi? Mohan / Poornima and Sujatha? Music was SG, I think? Or am I confusing it with some other film?

Imayam Kandaen was BSS, I am pretty certain. Mayagugiral is VB, you're right.

[Oldposts]

Naaz, Surya is correct. "sujatha.. ILU" is from Kotteswaran magaL. I think the music was by Chakravarthi (famous telugu MD). Cast was Sivakumar and ShankarabaraNam Rajalakshmi along with Sowcar and Thengai forming a suspicious pair leading to lots of comic scenes. The film had another duet by SPB and PS besides "Sujatha..". In SPB+SPB voices, there was one more "unai naan ariven enai nee arivai..." a lovely duet.

[Oldposts]

Thanks for clearing my doubt, Subbu. I think I confused it with some song in Vidhi which I vaguely remember....It had a similar "I love you" aspect perhaps? I remember the phrase written in BOLD letter on the beach and Mohan and Poornima dancing around it...adhanale than kozhappam-nnu nenaikiraen.

Looking back on Surya's post, I am sure she is right about Kodiswaran Magal. Did this film come right after "Sujatha" (Nee Varuvai Ena...) which also had Rajalakshmi? Everything seems familiar and vague at the same time :-)

[Oldposts]

Naaz,

In my release-list (hope this is correct), "Koteeswaran magaL" under 1981, "Sujatha" under 1980, whereas "Vidhi" is under the year 1984 !!!!

Naaz,

Day-before yesterday, I listened to the song from Savithri (1980), a Menaka-Somayajulu's brother starrer. It was non other than "Vazhdhaal unnodu vaazhndirupen endru vanam pugundhaaL seethai" sung by VJ.
Such a great song with superb punches. Few examples:
- aazh kadal aanaalum aayiram aanalum avar avar vidhi padi ye
- InbamO thunbamo veLiyinil illai.. idhyathil uruvaagidum (correct words???)
- Mangalam kuraiyaamal manjaLum azhiyaamal vazhvadhu nalam-allvaa (excellent extension of laya by VJ...)
- maNa vinai naaL (wedding day !!!) andru vediyar palar sollum mandiram adhu allavaa...

Though Savithri had to marry an old man, who can never be match & in sync with her beauty, youthfulness etc etc, she says "I have to live with what I am", that too without any crib and whoel-heartedly.. I guess Vaali wrote the lyrics.

Sathiyamaaga solgiren... I just became emotional when I was listioning to this... Lyrics, Music (very simple by MSV), Rendering with such an involvement and the song seq with Menaka's simple actions are the culprits to make my eyes wet :-)

I should have posted this in VJ thread... but good things can be said anywhere... :-)

[Oldposts]

Naaz: Surya is a HE!!!

[Oldposts]

And the vidhi song you are referring to is
L O V E love thaan love bird inge naan thaan..

[Oldposts]

Subbu -
Vazhndhaal Unnodu is a beautiful song. Simple and sublime at the same time. MSV and VJ also gave us "Naan Padikkonde Iruppaen" (first version) which was along similar lines. Meaningful lyrics and expressive singing. Thanks for reminding me!

Surya -

My apologies. (He He He! I will not forget now!:-)

[Oldposts]

I have a bit different opinion on "naan paadi konde iruppen" and "Vazhndhaal unnodu".

The "Sirai" song, was in very good of the heroine Lakshmi and she has been enjoying every day in her life with her partner Prasanna.

Whereas Menaka (Savithri) was so unlucky to get married to an old man with whom... what kind of life she can enjoy? But she still accepts that life and this song comes out with a bit virakthi but somehow accept and live upto her commitment.

If you again listen to the Savithri song, you will see the difference. And we are so fortunate to listen to that kind of portray of expressions in that song.

[Oldposts]

Subbu -
I agree wtih you. The situations in both films were entirely different as you point out.
I was only pointing out "expressive" singing in both the solos. Vazhndhal and Naan Padikkonde are both meaningful songs, with minimal orchestration, and both depend on the singer to "emote". It was this "emotion" in the rendition which I was emphasising. Not the film or the situation.
Yes, MSV-VJ team gave us many good solos and memorable songs. I can add my voice to the "fortunate" chorus - we are lucky to have been TFM listeners during the best period!

[Oldposts]

I dunno how many of you remember the mind blowing PS solo number from an unreleased film Panchami MD : IR
'Udhaya kaalame
Nanaintha megame
Mozhiyin kadhavu thirandhadhu
vizhiyil vidiyal pularnthadhu'. I can still hear PS's reverberating laughter in that great song.

[Oldposts]

this was the first song by PS for VM's Lyrics

[Oldposts]

'Mazhalikalamum veyil kalamum' is also fantastic song by PJ & VJ from Savithiri.
NaaZ,
Is 'Ninaththu paarkiren en nenjam inikkindradhu' availabale anywhere in the net? What a great composition by MSV.

[Oldposts]

raj, if you have the link for that Panchami, why don't you please post it in PS thread and/or here...

[Oldposts]

Naaz,

engey ungal naazanjali?

How about this song naaz... "chandira pirai paarthen thozhi sandhippu nigazhndhadhadi..." a great VJ song in a happy mood with ghazal shades.. Is it from "Kizhakkum merkkum sandhikkindrana"?

I have heard many songs in this style sung by PS too like "paithiyame konjan nillu vaithitayidam pOi sollu", "Ranga rangaiaah engey ponaalum"...

PS-SPB-VJ. Is it from Perum Pughazum or Sonnadhai Seiven, or wrong on both counts? :-)

[Oldposts]

Naaz,

- Sridevi Varam Kaetkiral is from "Deviyin Thirumanam", music scored by MSV. One of the KRV dominated movies. That 'ho ho' is very dear to me. Both the giants say that in their own style :-)
- Nalamo Ena Naan Kaetpaen is one of the sweetest songs of VJ, that I like :-0
- Kandaen Kalyana Penn Pondra Megham is from "Mayor Meenakshi" (Madurai thirumaran-KRV combination). Excellent song this is... efforless singing by PS. In charaNams, Konjam vitta abaswaram aagi vidum... Romba carefull-aa paadi irukkanga :-)

[Oldposts]

Subbu -
Thanks for the details.
Sridevi Varam Kaetkiral is a beautiful Three-et, and the singers all leave their own special impression.
Nalamo Ena Naan Kaetpaen is, in my books, one of TRs challenging compositions (in scale, lyrics and singing too it is excellent.) I've always had a softspot for some TR tunes, and this is one of them.
I did not know that Kandaen Kalayan Penn Pondra was from Mayor Meenatchi. I remember Thirumurugan Aruginile Vallikkuraththi, but for some reason I did not associate this song as being from MM.
It is another good duet.
Somehow, a host of KRV films in the late70s/early 80s had good songs - Annapurani, MM, Nadagame Ulagam, Rowdy Rakkamma, Annapparavai, Neelamalargal...
Thanks for sharing.

[Oldposts]

Wasn't Srividhya the herione in Rowdy Rakkamma?

[Oldposts]

Surya -
Yes.
Srividya, Kavitha and (maybe) Jai Ganesh. Music was by SG.

[Oldposts]

Surya -
I just saw the mistake in my pre-previous post. Thanks for pointing it out. I guess I just saw "girth" and substitued KRV for SV :-)

[Oldposts]

I just recalled the following MSV song and SPB the singer

Kannadasan, MSV, SPB and of course the master director KB all deserve their part.
The song comes in bits at different situations in the movie.

I may have MSV part in vasantha kaala. But that may be in the old casette collection recorded from the film. Give me some time to dig out that song . The quality may not be good I think so.

[Oldposts]

Sathya kabali-ofcourse i do. We both posted this song in the 'lryics written aptly for the situation' and you gave the correct version of the lyrics.

Please take your time and dont mind about the quality of the recording.

Sathya kabali i would like to add one more song to my wish list

'poochudum samayathile poi vittaye amma' haunting solg from 'paar magaLe paar'.

[Oldposts]

I vaguely remember one song, but couldn't tell from which movie it is from. I know the tune, but unfortunately not the lyrics.

Anyway let me try the lyrics. It is a female solo, probably SJ and came during early 80s. The song starts like this..

Thaenoorudhu Aasaiyo Nooridhu (or vooridhu)
Dheagam w1 w2 w3 (w1,w2,w3 are unknown words)
Naaney pudhu roja..

I would be happy if someone can give me some details about this song.

[Oldposts]

L- Thenoorudhae aasaiyo meerudhae, dhegam thaane poraaduthae- from the film Vallai Pura Ondru-1984. Directed by Gangai Amaran, produced by AVM Kumaran. Music by IR, yes by SJ. Filmed on Silk Smitha.

The song vasantha kAla nathikaLilE doesn't end with MSV part.

Rajni sings:

maNa vinaikaL yArudanO
maayavanin vithi vakaikal
vithi vakaiyai mudivu seyyum
vasantha kaala neeralaikaL!

Finally the song ends with Sridevi (after getting married to Rajni's father - Calcutta Viswanathan) singing these lines:

neeralaiyil nadanthathellaam
nenjiraNdin ninaivalaikaL
ninavalaikaL mudintha idam
thaay maganaam soozhnilaikaL!

What en end to this song! Now the song and the story are complete.
Nowadays we miss such situation songs with lyrics aptly written for the story.
Yesterday I was seeing the movie 'Kasethan kadavulada". The whole month I was seeing new DVDs like Album, Dhool, Lesa lesa, Maunam pesiyathe....like that. After these bunch of new movies Kasethan kadavulada with natural performances by Manorama, Muthuraman and Thengay was a welcoming change.
Vaali has written a very good comedy song jambulingamE jadAtharA (Kovai S.Rajan, Veeramani and Tharapuram sunderrajan) very aptly written for the situation. it is really difficult to write such comedy songs.

[Oldposts]

Sathya kabali i didnt know that last part. Thanks for sharing.
Was that bit there in the movie?

Though i watched it 2 decades ago, i dont remember this bit being played.

Did VJ sing that part too?

[Oldposts]

dada- the song (and its a wonderful one with SPB at his caressing best!) goes like 'En kannmani en paadal keladi, en ponmani en gaanam kettu thoongu poonkodi, kannae kana varum---'

I found it in a recording shop, the record had actor Rahman's photo on the cover, and the movie was titled as Nianivo Oru Paravai (perhaps unreleased)- Music was credited to Amaldev.

Sathya Kabali- 'Jambulingamae' is a rollicking fun song- have you noticed the cries 'Mahadeva' and 'Viswanatha' in between- I used to imagine a reference to KVM and MSV!!

[Oldposts]

Yes, Saravanan. Vaali would have definitely thought of those two when he wrote those lines. romba kuRumbu pudichcha aaLu.
I had to pause the video every 2 lines; to follow the lyrics along with the video.
With Thengaay blaberring the funny lines like
paamabai adikkum aaNdavaNe
Vaali immediately follows with praising Shiva
"pambai adikkum aaNdavanE"
another line goes like this
"hotel kaRiyai kEttavanE"
piLlai kaRiyai kEttavanE".
The whole song is like this Now after seeing the movie I have started to like this funny.. song more and more.

Jayalalitha acted with Shivaji for the first time in Kalatta kalyanam he wrote "nalla Idam nee Vandha idam vara vendum" .. she came from MGR films... he meant that too

Saravanan, a request. If you have the time, can you list/recap some rare(in your opinion) IR gems/hits that have either missed being discussed about or have been long forgotten. Kind of like the VJ number from "Sonnadhu nee dhaana". I am talking about the 76-82 period mainly. You can post your list here probably

Naaz and raj: What do you think of the other great (in my opinion) songs from Naan Aanayittal?
Kodukka Kodukka (PS -MSV)and Piranda Idam Thedi
(LRE)
RR

[Oldposts]

RR -

As far as MGR films are concerned, I think he was (in music sense and the ability to spot a good tune) up there with Raj Kapoor in HFM. I would find it equally difficult to choose between songs in (most) RK films.
And the MSV-MGR combination was a sterling example of immpeccable music chemistry. Virallum Veenaiyum Pola.
Is there a link to Piranda Idam Thedi? I have not heard it so many years! But I don't recall the PS-MSV song (I am sure I would if I heard the first line again.) These are the unfortunate breaks in my memory, doubly compounded by the complete absence of Vividh Bharati in the geography where I now make my home. My presence in this thread is primarily to keep the little that I know of TFM from that era from slipping away...They say that writing things down keeps one's memory working. And I think it does :-)

[Oldposts]

Naaz: I am not aware of a link to Piranda Idam Thedi. I found the combination of band music and Nadaswaram in the prelude and interlude appealing.
In fact, i bought the Naan Aanaiittal casette just for this song and to my disappointment found the quality to be mediocre. There was even a cut
in the song. when I asked the shop owner about the authenticity, he said that most of the old
recordings of HMV was destroyed in a fire accident and in fact, in the casette HMV had acknowledged someone for providing a copy. The same fate for one of the songs in Oli Vilakku.
as well as for many songs in Kalangarai Vilakkam.
Anyway, see if the following lines can help you recall the 'Kodukka' song:
Kodukka Kodukka Inbam Pirakkudey,
Adai Thadukka thadukka Vetkam...,
Ninaikka Ninaikka Nenjam Inithadey,...
I do not recall the words exactly but this is part of the pallavi. MSV provides only the humming.
RR

[Oldposts]

RR- What about 'Megangal thirandu vandhaal' song- amazing lyrics by Alangudi Somu, and sung so feelingly by Seergazhi Govindarajan & PS- if I were to select the best from Naan Aanai Itaal- this song would be my choice! Pirandha idam thedi would be a close second though!

When Pramila comes home from Hyderabad for Jayasuda's wedding, the whole house is brimming with joy and happiness; she is the one who lost her innocenseand happiness; now deeply immersed in guilt and sorrow. Her sister is studying alone in a room. Pramila is watching over a picture of Lord Shiva,she asks her sister to sing a paasuram."appA manasu kashtamA irukkumpOthellam pada solvArE; ippO oru pasuram pAduviyA?"
That's Pramila's sobbing in the background.When she is singing Pramila just breaks down lying in her lap.

When the truth about Pramila's profession is blown out, Kamal pushes and throws her out of the house. Senthamarai (Sivakumar's father) comes to her rescue and picks up a fight with Kamal.The younger sister to calm things down, sings this slokam in front of Devi's picture with Pramila and Senthamarai leaving in the background. The camera moves on and captures everyone's emotions.

When seeing this movie you can feel the essence of these verses. so emotionally packed in different situations.

very well sung by T.V.Rathnam. (I can't imagine it is the same TVR who sang "aaLai aaLai paarkkiRaar " in Raththak kanneer.)

Sathya Kabali,

Thank you for these couplets- My search of many years has ended at last- Thanks to you! I just listened to them right now--and reading your lucid descriptions-- kaatchigalum kann mun arangeruvathuppol irundhadhu! Thanks again for taking the time and trouble!

RR- sorry it should be 'Megangal irundu vandhaal'. In fact, the song starts with a stirring thogayara by the inimitable Seergazhi:

Odi vandhu meetpatharkku
unnmaikko kaalgal illai
Oindhirundhu kettppatharkku
neethikko neramillai
paartha nilai solvatharkku
Paramanukko uruvamillai
pazhi sumandhu selvathindri
ivanukko paathai illai--

Then the pallavi starts:

Megangal irundu vandhaal
adhai mazhaiyenakkolvathundu
manithargal thirundhi vandhaal
adhai pizhaiyena kolvathundo?

A moving song--and among my all-time favourites!

Naaz: Good choice of reminiscences again!

[Oldposts]

Saravanan: I will not contest your choice in Naan Aanaiyittaal. Probably teh least heard but the most moving piece. In fact, after seeing your posting yesterday I went back and listened to the song and came prepared with the four lines in
the "Thogaiyara" but you beat me to it. Also, thanks for reminding it is penned by Aalangudi Somu. He has also written Piranda Idam Thedi.
Is there a thread on Aalangudi Somu in TFM?
By the way, the song"Kodukka Kodukka" by PS is written apparently by V. lakshmanan. Have you heard of this lyricist? Other songs in Naan Aanaiyittaal: Nalla Velai Naan.., Thai Mel AAnai,
Naan Uyara Uyara...
RR

[Oldposts]

RR: Vidwan V Lakshmanan is a famed astrologer who is more popularly known as 'Balajosiyar' Lakshmanan. He was a great friend of the late Manian, along with whom he produced MGR films like Idhaya Veenai & Pallaandu Vaazhga. He was also among those who were considered to be in MGR’s coterie.

He wrote lyrics for some good songs- The two songs sung by Panigrahi in Aval Yaar-1959: ‘Naan thedum pothu’ and ‘Kann kaanum minnal thaano’ were perhaps the first songs he wrote. He was the lyricist for all the songs in S Balachandar’s Bommai-1964.
‘Amma endraal paal tharuvaal’- Karpooram-1967, ‘Manam oru kurangu’ and ‘Aruppokkottai machchaan’- both Manam Oru Kurangu-also 1967 are other songs by V Lakshmanan that I recall.

[Oldposts]

There was this song I remembered:

vaazvil sowbhakyam vandhadhu
vandhEn endradhu
thEn thandhEn endradhu

Was it from thoondil meen and music by V. Kumar?

[Oldposts]

Yes.. it is from Thoondil meen.. Not sure if it is by V.Kumar.

[Oldposts]

I vaguely remember that the MD was viyajabaskar

[Oldposts]

[Oldposts]

Yes Music4ever & surya,
MD was indeed V Kumar for vazhvil sowbaghyam vandhadhu from Thoondil meen. It also had ennodu ennennamo adhisayam .

bb: appadi nenachu thaan naan thoosi thatti eduthu pOtten.. appadiyum sathame illai.. :(

[Oldposts]

bb: I don't know whether you consider it rare, but here is one I like:
eNNi eNNi paarthu manam inbam kondaadudhe
ennai ariyaamal uLLam thuLLi viLaiyaadudhe
eNNi...
konji konji pesi isai kuyil pola paaduven
kola mayil pola vegu aanandhamaai aaduven naan aanandhamaai ...
en kaadhal raajan en naathan koodave en naaLum vaazhuven naan ennaaLum vaazhuven

I think the song is from Vaazhkai. It was released in late forties or early fifties. This was a popular song during my lower secondary school years. The tune is copied from 'chup chup kadu' in Hindi.
Saravanan probably can shed more light!

[Oldposts]

Yes, Raj, that's a good song from Vaazhkkai (1949/ AVM/ T.R.Ramachandran & Vyjayanthimala). Sung by M.S.Rajeswari, Music by R.Sudarsanam. MSR had a smash hit in 'Un kann unnai yemaatrinaal' from the same film. Lyrics by K.P.Kamakshisundaram.

[Oldposts]

Saravanan: 'un kann unnai' was very popular among us kids(in those days!) to tease others. I don't remember the whole song. But , it goes like:
mana mevum aasai mohanaa maaraa ikkobam nyayamaa
un kann unnai yemaatrinaal en mel kobam undaavadhen
college padichum payanillai kaarotta therindum payanillai
....

I have been searching for these songs for sometime now.

[Oldposts]

Vaazhkkai was apparently filmed for the most part in my grandmother's house. I've heard her talk about Vaijayanthimala as the most beautiful girl she's ever seen.

A song that always puts me in a good mood is "nallavan enakku naanE nallavan". It has an excellent rhythm and good beats. Was it one of the "dance floor" songs of that time?

[Oldposts]

guys,
which movie is this song from....have been running in my mind for a while..it goes something like this

"Athannin nenjukkulley tikk tikk tikk
ammalin kannukkuley bakk bakk bakk"

[Oldposts]

Senty, 'athanin nenjukkuley' is from the film Revathi-1986. (Suresh, Revathi, Sujatha, Jaishankar). Sung by KJY & SJ. Music by S-G.

[Oldposts]

Raj- ippothaan gavanichen: lower secondary school in the late 40s?? Sir, you're older than my father :) Its wonderful that you are taking part in these discussions with enthusiasm! Hope you continue to share your memories and knowledge.

'Un kann unnai emaatrinaal' is a great fun song- it goes like this: (there may be a few errors!)

manamevum aasai nathanae
maara ikkovam niyayama?

Mr.Nathan--oh sorry, Mr.Asokan,
un kann unnai emaatrinaal
en mel kovam undaavathen

Penngalai geliyaai pesuvathil aasai yen

I vaguely remember there being a TRR version too.

[Oldposts]

Andha neram poruthirundhaal

Isn't this lovely song from Thillu Mullu? There is a song in Ayutha Ezhuthu which somehow reminded me of the above one.

[Oldposts]

Saravanan: Thanks for the lyrics and the kind words. Actually, I know nothing about movies compared to you. You have helped me a lot in bringing back fading memories! I was too engulfed in 'the rat race' to find time for movies for almost three decades. Now that I am retired I find time for this page and a few threads. I am a regular in paattukku paattu thread where I get teased for my age. But, I feel a lot younger with that crowd. Thanks again for the Vaazhkkai lyric. Hope someday, I will hear from you about Vedhaala Ulagam, Naam Iruvar, Marma Yogi,Dhigambara Saamiyaar and others. Cheers!
Keep up the good work!

[Oldposts]

Is there a link somewhere for the following song which appeared in the movie Poi Kaal Kuthirai?

Ellam therigiradhu

I am quite sure it is by Mellisai Mannar.

Surya and others, thanks for the response concerning the thoondil meen song.

I have an old cassette which has songs sung by Thiruchi Loganathan. One of the songs which I like most in that is
"mAnilamE,yindha mAnidarAl vandha mARudhal pAraiyA" vey meaningful and classsy song.
My all-time favorite old song is by 'nadippisaip pulavar' K.R. Ramasamy which is,
"kaNNil thOnRum kAtchi yAvum kaNNE unadhu kAtchiye;
maNNil veezhum kaNNeer veLLam kAdhal nenjin sAtchiyE"
Absolutely brilliant!

Guys what movie is this song from...

"Poonnkatreee....
ethu pothummmm.. En udal thendathey
Poradum ellam Poovvai
En manam thalathey"

Its an IR movie mid 90's.This song has two version's one by IR himself.

[Oldposts]

Senty, its from Padicha Pulla-1989.(Arjun, Seetha). One version is by Mano & Chitra, and the other by IR.

[Oldposts]

Thanxs sara,i know u will tell it.Can someone here put some question that sara cannot answer :).I remember the movie now.Arjun is a Cow Boy , seetha daughter of manorama is a brahmin i guess.

[Oldposts]

Was that movie directed by Arjun himself or his brother Kishore? I remember seeing that one. Not a bad movie, I think!

[Oldposts]

Anybody got the mp3 of the Poonnkatrey song??
i have been humming it all day..but not able to proceed further than the pallavi :)...

[Oldposts]

It's now probably twenty years since I listened to the lovely song that goes "Kalai magaL Alai magaL Malai magaL moovarum ulavidum raathiri, Navaraathiri". I believe Jayachandran was the singer and MSV was the MD. I was watching a song in the movie "vinnukkum mannukkum" when I remembered the above one. Any idea which movie?

[Oldposts]

Music4ever, 'kalaimagal alaimagal' is a wonderful JC-PS duet from the film Velli Ratham (1979/ Ashtalakshmi Pictures). The film starred Vijayakumar, K.R.Vijaya, VA Nirmala, S.V.Subbiah, M.N.Rajam and others. Music, yes by MSV. It was directed by Krishnan-Panju.

[Oldposts]

Thank You Saravanan. I appreciate it. Seems like another age (It is!), the time I used to listen on the radio (Thaenkinnam, virumbikettavai etc).

[Oldposts]

Poo Maalai vaangi vanthan

What a mesmerizing song. Recently heard it on Sun TV and remembered the eighties. The unforgettable Sindhu Bairavi movie.

[Oldposts]

nice to see senty and music4ever post back to back :)

[Oldposts]

Prabhu? Have to catch up with the DFers. I love this thread.

On Maduraiyai Meeta Sundara Paandiyan, I recall two lovely tunes.

1) Thendralil aadum thogaiyai kandEn
mazhai konda megam
En Devadhai amudham sindhidum neram
ini enna naanam, ini enna naanam

2) Amudha thamizhil ezhudhum kavidhai
pudumai pulavan nee

[Oldposts]

Another JC song, I believe, is the following:

UdhadugaLil unathu peyar ottikondathu
Adhai ucharikkum pothu nenjam thinthikkindrathu

Is this from Thanga Rangan? That was probably two score and more years ago.

Which movie is the following from? (words might be incorrect)

Adi Kanmani
Vanna paingiLi
Chinna poongodi
Ennai paaradi
Indha neram
enna naaNam

Sung by SPB and a female voice (?) I forget. Input from Saravanan would be appreciated.

[Oldposts]

Music4ever, thanks for reminding me of songs that I had not thought of in quite a while :)

Yes, 'Udhadugalil unadhu peyar' by JC & PS is from Thangarangan (1978/ Jeppiar Pictures). Lyrics by Na.Kamarasan. Music by MSV. The song featured Vijayakumar & Pramila, though Thengai played the title role. Jeppiar followed this up in 1979 with another Thengai film- Porter Ponnusami.

'Adi kannmani' is from Aval Oru Adhisayam (1978/ Suchitra Films). No idea about the actors. The song is sung by SPB & PS, with LR Anjali joining in briefly. Music by Vijayabhaskar.

[Oldposts]

Saravanan, thanks for your valuable input :) Thanga rangan also had "enga rangan, thanga rangan" as one more number. When you said Porter Ponnusami, I immediately remembered it was by MSV and there was a lively number or two too. I forget them though.

'Adi Kannmani' is a nice number by Vijayabhaskar (also MD for thappu thalangal, I believe).

There was this tune which I used to blare often to the great dismay of my close ones: "Oru rojapoo sirikiradhu, pudhu rajavai ninaikkiradhu". Was it by Chandrabose?

Thanks once again :)

this song has been bothering me lately any imputs on this

it start like this

Sirichaaaaaa.... kolli malai thenu....
think the singer is malaysia....

[Oldposts]

Music4ever, ‘oru rosaappoo sirikkirathu’ is from Yaaga Saalai (1980/ Friends Movies). The song was sung by Vijayaramani (aka TS Ragavendar), Kamala & S.N.Surendar. Lyrics by Thirupaathoor Rasu. Music by Vijayaramani himself.

Senty, ‘Siricha kollimala kuyilu’ is from Jothi (1983/Thaai Creations). The song was sung by SPB & an obscure singer called Saaya. Music by IR, and lyrics by Vairamuthu.

[Oldposts]

Jothi used to be my favorite movie especially for the songs. Very different. IIR had played with regular utensils like a tumbler,plate, spoon etc falling on the ground at the appropriate places in a song supposedly sung among a group of drama artists. Very captivating and original song I have ever heard!!

[Oldposts]

guys, does anyone know the lyrics of the
"Sirichaaaaaa.... kolli malai thenu.... "
song...

[Oldposts]

Senty, I like this thread, so you will find me often :) As for Sara, his knowledge base transcends era-s, so it is little wonder his participation cuts across era-s.

How about this early eighties song by MSV:

Vendum vendum undhan uravu
venn pani thendral ulla varaiyil
venn pani thendral ulla varaiyil

SPB, PS I think. Sivaji, KR Vijaya jodi?

[Oldposts]

M4e: Vendum veNdum by SPB/VJ(?) is from Vasanthathil oru NaaL - Sivaji, Sri Priya (dual roles). Matha vivarangaLai vazhakkam pOla Saravanan solvaar! :)

[Oldposts]

Name and MD of the following song pls?

1. Oru devathai vanadhaal
mana kovilil ninraal
oru devanum vandhaan
mana kovilil ninran
avan raman avathaaram
indha jaanagi avan thaaram

2. Thenoorudhu aasaiyoo meeruthu
dhegam thaaney (i don't remember)

Pls?

[Oldposts]

Surya, thanks :)

Chumma, probably VJ is the female voice for the first song. The rest is for the expert, AKA Saravanan, to answer :)

[Oldposts]

m4e, Surya has already answered your query, SPB & VJ it is. Vasanthathil Or Naal was a remake of the hindi film Mausam (Sanjeev Kumar/ Sharmila Tagore). The film was directed by AC Thirulogachander. MD: MSV.

Chumma, 'Oru devathai vandhaal' is from Neethipathi. It din't feature in the film, though :(

Thenoorudhe is from Vellai Pura Ondru.

[Oldposts]

Thanks Saravanan and m4e. Do you know who is the MD of Neethipathi?

[Oldposts]

Neethipathi produced by K Balaji (Sujatha Production)
MD is Gangai Amaran

[Oldposts]

saravanan,
you forgot to mention me! Re " vendum vendum undhan uravu" ;-)) how come?

[Oldposts]

There was this song from EngaL Vaadhiyaar which goes something like "Samudhra raajakumari, sugaraaja sukumari". Nice one. Captivating mridangam. Sung by VJ and JC? I am quite sure MSV was the MD.

[Oldposts]

vengayam, yes, I should have :)

M4E, SPB & VJ. Yes, MSV.

[Oldposts]

Thanks, Saravanan :) Nice nick, Vengayam :)

I am reminded of

Vengaya sambaarum
vegadha sorum
kedaikkira edam

[Oldposts]

M4E and Sara, many thanks for reminding me of the catchy song
"Adi Kanmani vanna paingkili" . I keep humming this song every now and then. Oh how I miss MD's
like VijayaBhaskar , GKV, RN, Salil, Devarajan, golden age IR, GA these days!!!

[Oldposts]

Music4Ever, Mythila, Saravanan, and "remembering to mention :-)" Vengayam (good to see you back - and in form) --

Samudra Rajakumari, Sugapushpa Sukumari...Is vintage MSV. I haven't heard the song in months, but if my memory serves me right (oh yeah?) there is a superb smooth-jazz interlude after the second charanam. The transition is both incongruous and integral at the same time! All done with the MSV finesse and authority. You have to give it a listen sometime.

[Oldposts]

Guys,
i dont have a clue what song u guys are talkin abt.If some onw has the mp3.please share it.

i was reminded of this song.Dont know the movie.It has murali and hera in it.Music by IR.

"Thulli thirinthaooru kalam
Palli payindrathooru kalam
kalangal ponguthu poonguiley poonguiley

Thulli thirin......


Annai madiyinil sila naal

[Oldposts]

[Oldposts]

prabhu this is not idhyam... this was another movie that came after idhyam....kind of an idhayam part2 :).i think there is another heroine apart from hera...

[Oldposts]

Senty, sorry, I'm not able to fill in the blanks, as its been many years since I heard the song last--its in one of the many tapes that I've left behind in India :(

However, I can tell you the details: it is from the 1992 film Endrum Anbudan. Stg: Murali, Heera, Sitara and Manorama. Directed by Bhagyanathan. Another wonderful song in it is 'Nilavu vandhadhu nilavu vandhadhu' (Mano, SJ)

[Oldposts]

nandri mobile databasey,
yeah the other song is also good one...

Nilavu vandhadhu nilavu vandhadhu
jannal vazhiyaga....

not sure abt the next line... how abt
kanavu vandhadhu kanavu vandhadhu kangal vazhiyaga...
Iam was tempted here to write more of my own lyrics but decided to show mercy on you all and stopped attempting it...

[Oldposts]

[Oldposts]

Naaz, I only remember that captivating trademark mridangam that was so characteristic of many MSV songs. Haven't listened to Samudra Raajakumari in about twenty or so years!

Mythila, know of any other lilting Vijayabhaskar melodies? I only remember those of MSV's, for I was (and am still) an avid MSV fan and also an avid KVM fan (although I will readily acknowledge the genius of IR).

I was listening to SPB's 50th birthday celebrations which I believe happened sometime around 1997 or 1998 (my friend very kindly sent me his CD). In it, Gangai Amaran says he and IR played the guitar and some other instrument for GKV's super duper melody "ThEn sindhudE vaanam, unai enai thAlAttudhE".

Senty, since the mid eighties I lost touch with tamil film music; only picked up the lost threads in the late nineties!

[Oldposts]

the name of the film is 'Pokisham', can some one (Saravanana Sir) pls tell me who is acting in this film?, who the Md was?, When was this film released?

so that I can visualy enjoy the song.

many thanks

[Oldposts]

Hi M4E, I recommend few of VijayaBhasker's songs for u to cherish, although Sara will be the best pointer
1. "Manamagale un manavarai kolam", "Mudhal mudhal varum sugam", "Paadum vande paarthathundaa","Anbenum sudaraal erivadhu viakku" - all these great songs from Kaalangalil aval vasantham
2. "Oru puram vedan marupuram naagam" , "varavendum vaazhkaiyil vasantham", "sugam aayiram" from Mayangugiraal oru maadhu
3. "pattu poochigal vattamadithaal katti anaikkum poochendu" - a song full of verve , joy, awesome vocal harmony from Maalai soodavaa

[Oldposts]

Senty: Are you talking about Aruvadai naaL? Prabhu falling in love with Pallavi, a nun (to be?). MD is IR. Dir GA Kumar. I think Sivaji movies produced this ( As always, I'll leave it for Saravanan to answer the minute details...:)

[Oldposts]

Surya, Senty:

Sivaji Productions' Aruvadai Naal- 1986 ( saw it after my 11th std. Half-yearly exams!)Directed by GM Kumar.

Stg. Prabhu, Ramkumar (Sivaji's elder son, he too acted!), Pallavi, Rasi, Vadivukkarasi, RP Viswam. The story is set in Ponmudi village, Prabhu in the role of Muthuvelu, Pallavi in the role of Nirmala (the christian doctor) and Rasi in the role of Rajalakshmi (Muthuvelu's muraipponnu) play the main roles.

Lyrics by GA and Music by IR.

[Oldposts]

Vengayam, when did aavani become maargazhi ? :))

Btw, hope you don't think I am being unpatriotic if I admit that I really relish the luscious Pakistani mangos that flood the UAE markets this time of the year!

To add to your list: What about 'Iru maanganippol idhazhoram( Vairam) and 'Mangai nee mangani' (Innisai Mazhai). Of course we don't like that song from Pratap, do we? ;)

Raghu, I too am trying to gather details of the film Pokkisham. All I know is it may be a film dubbed from Telugu, it had music by Satyam, and it had another good song 'Kalyanam thirukkalyanam' (PBS/PS).

Mythila, I second your Vijayabhaskar list- perhaps you could add 'Iravil irandu paravaigal' and 'Idho un kaathali' from Soundaryame Varuga Varuga, 'Ilamai naatiya saalai' from Kalyanammam Kalyanam and ' 'Mohana punnagai oorvalame' from Uravu Solla Oruvan.

[Oldposts]

surya, saravanan....
i wanted to mention that it is not aruvadai naal. but forgot.It's a movie similar to that even the song is kind of similar to devanin koil... but it came in 93,94 i guess. All new actors MD S.A.Rajkumar.

Thanks Mythila, Saravanan, and Senty. You all (including Naaz and others) are able to introduce here all those golden songs of the seventies with great ease. Henceforth, I shall be content to read your valuable input, only surfacing with comments or views if some tune or other imposes itself upon me from time to time :) Believe me, it does. I think it was Mythila, who, a while ago, started discussing the song "Maragadha megam, mazhai sindhum, .... varum neram indhu; thirumagal vedham inge thirumaal padaithare ..." in this very thread. I forget the movie name. It was by MSV directing VJ and SPB(?). I guess I can retrace it from the archives.

[Oldposts]

I guess you must be thinking of the song "Poove..Ithu Kaatrin Geetham..Uyir Paadum Neram". I don't know which movie this is from. Happened to catch it in Oliyum OLiyum when it was released. I dont understand why I still remember this song, maybe it was the novelty of a guy falling in love with a nun..

[Oldposts]

May be "Maragadha megam" was by PS and not VJ?

M4e agosh.... did one great song in
kodieswaran called Tholaivinile.

the song that u r talking about is by S.A.Rajkumar

**cut and paste**
AGOSH - is a three person composer/band group,
much like shankar, ehsaan & loy.

AGOSH comprises of Anandh (guitarist), GOpal Rao(vocalist - nooru aandu ku oru murai pookkinra poo allava - under vidyasaagar, oh
love attack centrury podum love attach - under
a.r.rahman), SHaleen (drummer).

They also composed music, which was fairly successful for the hindi movie 'ZOR' and the
tamizh movie 'Harishchandra'

[Oldposts]

Senty, I should have referred to the song in Harishchandra, which I actually wanted to talk about:) It goes like "Naadodi paatttu paada thandhana thandhan thaalam; Naadengum ... nenjinil aasaigal modhum.

[Oldposts]

So Agosh is three instead of one! Thanks, Senty.

[Oldposts]

Senty -

There is a BIG one (ok,two) missing in the Mythila/Saravanan list of Vijayabhaskar classics:

"Ennada Polladha Vaazhka..."
SPBs "alattal" in this solo is unmatched. From Thappuththaalangal.

Naaz thanxs for reminding a great song...
here it is... :)

[Oldposts]

Ponnoonjal! The song that immediately imposes upon me is the famous

Aagaya pandhalilE
ponnoonjal Aduthamma

Believe it was that unforgettable TMS-PS combination.

[Oldposts]

The song that still stands tall among other good ones:

Bharadhi kannamma
neeyE chinnamma
kELadi ponnamma
adhisaya malar mugam
dinasari pala ragam
aayinum ennamma
thEn mozhi sollamma
bharadhi kannamma
neeyE chinnamma

There was a time, though, when I preferred the (seemingly) more lively numbers like "yaadhum oorE yaavarum kELir", "namma ooru singari", and "EngEyum eppodhum sangeetham santhosham" etc.

Vintage MSV weaving his magical musical treat in that movie "NinaithalE inikkum". It proved nothing but plain bravado in the era that solely belonged to IR, though.

[Oldposts]

senty, vgs ungalukku lyrics provide pannina ethana lakh promise panna poreenga? :-))

[Oldposts]

M4E, IMO ninaithAlE inikkum is one of the greatest albums ever. one of my favourites as well.

[Oldposts]

prabhu,
stock market crash anathuley i lost couple of millions...so let me recover from it.Erkanavey IMF saravannanukku neraya thara vendiyathu irrukku :(.

[Oldposts]

Thanks Sara :)

[Oldposts]

Sriram, NinaithalE Inikkum was a musical treat no doubt. Sambo sivasambo sivasambo!

[Oldposts]

Mannikka Maataaya
Un manamirangi
Nee oru medhai
naan oru pedhai
nee tharum sodhanai
naan padum vedhanai
podhum podhum podhum

KJY singing under the baton of MSV. There was a song in the movie Annamalai which reminded me of the above number. The one where Rajni philosophizes.

[Oldposts]

The Annamalai song is

Oru penn pura
kanneeril ...
......
enna mayamo
...

[Oldposts]

Mannikka maataya is from the movie Janani produced by Gemini(?) trying to make a comback. Nethaji directed this one with new faces. Saravanan, as usual, should be able to give more details.

[Oldposts]

Surya, you're right. Janani- 1985 was an unsuccessful attempt from Gemini. The film starred newcomers Udayakumar & Bhavya. (Incidentally, there was great demand for the name Bhavya in 1985, the heroine of Geetanjali was also called Bhavya, and the Janani heroine ambitiously called herself Gemini Bhavya!!)

'Konjum malar manjam' (SPB/VJ), 'aadurathu endha'(SPB/SJ), 'mannikka maataaya' (KJY & PS versions ) and 'Naattu sarakkidhu' (MV/Saibaba) were the songs. Music: MSV. Lyrics by Netaji (I think)

[Oldposts]

Thanks, Surya and Sara. Sara, can you list the songs in the movie Agni Saatchi? Thanks in advance :) I recall only one now:

Kanaa kaanum kangal mella
urangaadho paadal solla
....

[Oldposts]

Music4Ever
Agnisakshi had the following songs
1) vanakkam muthal variyaiezhudhum by PS,SPB
2) a Stage drama song(kannaki,madhavi) by PS,VJ,MSV
3) Adiye kannama by PS

[Oldposts]

Thanks, raj.

[Oldposts]

Utterly fascinated by these REGAL songs:


1. Naan Paadum Paadal, Nalamaaga Vendum;

2. Engey Aval

3. Unnai Kaanatha Kannum Kannnalla (Just perfect, perfect)

4. Nee Ennana Sonaallum Kavidhai

5, Yaadhum Orey, Yaavaram Kelleer....

I am also enjoying Anvandhan Manithan songs, revelation sir.....

[Oldposts]

SARAVANAN,

thanks 4 the info :)

[Oldposts]

Avanthaan Manithan has some wonderful songs...
1. engirundhO oru kural vandhadhu
2. oonjalukku poo chooti
3. Manithan ninaippathuNdu vaazhvu

AVM's Uyarndha uLLam ( Kamal, Ambika, Radharavi) has shades of Avanthaan Manithan.

[Oldposts]

Surya, add:

4. Anbu nadamaadum kalaikkoodame
5. aatuvithaal yaaroruvar

[Oldposts]

Saravanan -

Why am I caught in this hilarious loop (a "chaadu" carry-over? hangover? over??)I know not, but this song is rooming in my head for the last 48 hours -

Maaruvadhu Society
Ullagam Pala Variety
Theduvadhu Beauty
(???) En Duty

(I am sure this is not an ARR comp :-)) as it was sung by LRE from some 60s film?)

What a "looty" of song!! Any details?

[Oldposts]

reminds me of some old looty song... dont know which movie

1)Jolly life, jolly life
kalyanam panna
jolly life ....
(bramachari ??)

2)chappathi....
chappathi thaan
rotti rotti thaan
(nawab narkali)

3)vaa vadhyarey utanda
nee varangatti nan udamaten
jambajar jaggu
nan saidapettai kokku

[Oldposts]

senty, 3rd is Manorama's first song from Bommalaattam - recently got wind of this on FM

[Oldposts]

Saravanan, isn't Avandhan Manithan first Stereo audio?


Surya: Oonjalukku poo chooti is such a joyful complsotion!!!!

3. Manithan ninaippathuNdu vaazhvu

AVM's Uyarndha uLLam ( Kamal, Ambika, Radharavi) has shades of Avanthaan Manithan.

Surya, add:

4. Anbu nadamaadum kalaikkoodame (this is the fantastic duet I am talking about, IR gave something like that in Anthapurathiloru Magarani for Sivaji. Super duets, both)

5. aatuvithaal yaaroruvar

Those days, what made these composers do original stuff is what I find amazing. Their belief in the strenght of the carnatic system versus today' composers belief in loops and foreign sounding Tamil. It is good as long as you can get a mix of classical tunes and modern sounds. Is it because our today's composers have no strong classical music grounding like MSV and KVM or is it because they think Indian classical music is not useful?

[Oldposts]

Music4ever: Maragada Megham is by SP-PS from "Megatthukkum Daagamundu". It also had SP-VJ and SP-SJ duets. Talking of Ninaithale Inikkum, two short but sweet songs went largely unnoticed:
Nizhal Kandavan, What a waiting!
RR

[Oldposts]

RR,

What a waiting!

was indeed superbly sung by SPB!

there was another song by SPB for the greatest actor Shivaji, the song goes like this 'My love is for you, my life is for you, guess who', some funny song, any body know the name of the movie ??

[Oldposts]

Raghu- it is 'My song is for you, my love is for you'- from Paattum Bharathamum.

[Oldposts]

RR, how can one forget that "waiting" song in NI?

KaathirundhEn kaathirundhEn
kaadhal manam nogum varai
paarthirundhaL paarthirundhaL
pachai kiLi saatchi solla

followed by a guitar (?) piece. There was one more song by LRE. Ananda thaandavamo? I don't remember the nizhal kandavan bit though :) Thanks for the Maragadha megam info.

[Oldposts]

amazing guitar piece in "what a waiting". pink floyd meets dire straits meets santana. as I said, that album is just fantastic.

[Oldposts]

Saravanan,

Thanks 4 the info, I did not realy like that song on first time listening, is this available any where on line, who was the heroine of that film, which year was that film released, I suppose Shivaji did a double role right??

Sriram,

Guitar was more amazing in the following songs, in my opinion

1) Engeyum eppothum sangeetham
2) En iniya pon nilave
3) Enadi Meenakshi sonnathu enachu
4) sampo sivasambo

[Oldposts]

Raghu: I think JJ was the heroine of Paatum Barathamum. Yes..Sivaji had a dual role. Dont remember the actress who paired the other Sivaji.

Also add 'Pallavi illaamal paadugiren ..' from Uyire Unakkaga

[Oldposts]

Surya,

thanks for the info

[Oldposts]

After about twenty odd years I listened to all the songs of NI except Nizhal Kandavan. Suffice it to say, my taste hasn't changed a wee bit, so much so that I still maintain a craving for those lovely melodies. To my surprise I discovered that I had alsmost totally forgotten songs like "Laa la la la laa laa ninaithale inikkum", "inimai niraindha ulagam irukku", "Sayanora", and another SPB song (partly english and partly tamil)! Incredible songs, those of NI. Long live MSV and SPB!

[Oldposts]

Music4ever,

yes, the humming bit by SPB in that song is truly awsome, another song that is in my heart 4 ever is 'Nilai maaru ulagil' by KJY, awsome song, superbly song by KJY!

I have question, which films featured these songs??

1) mehame meehame paal nilaa - VJ, superb voice
2) Azhahana Pookal malarnthaduthe - Awsome voice of Dr.SPB
3) Katrpanai vaanil neenthi varuhindra katha nayagi - another gem form SPB, I think, it was a Kamal film!

help needed please

[Oldposts]

dear all,

another question :)

which film had this song,'Moongilile Paatisaithu or kaatrisaithu', sorry, I can not remember the words exactly, it is a superb SPB + TRR song!

[Oldposts]

Raghu,

I believe the "megame megame" song was in the movie paalaivana cholai and composed by SG. The rest for the expert, Sara :)

[Oldposts]

Surya, Sripriya was the actress who was the pair of the younger Sivaji (Pop singer Arun!!)in Paattum Bharathamum (1975/Arunparasad Movies/ P.Madhavan/MSV/Kannadasan)

Raghu-

megame megame- Paalaivanacholai
azhagaana pookal- Anbae Odivaa
karpanai vaanil- Raja Veettu Kannukkutti (its for Prabhu, not Kamal)
moonginilae paatisaikkum kaatralaiyai- Ragam Thedum Pallavi

[Oldposts]

wasn't TR the MD for "moongililae paattisaikkum"? does it have the lines "aval muga vadivai avan paartha pinne, andha pournamiyai avan rasippadhillai"? they seem TR-ish to me.

[Oldposts]

Sriram: Yes it is by TRR!

[Oldposts]

Saravanan sir,

thanks a million for the info, another question:)
which film featured this song,
1) Azhahe Puthu malare amuthe kadhal - by S.N.Surender, he has done great justice to this song, superb!

2) Devan Kovil mani, thinamum vazhthum - SPB + VJ combo, name of the film please?,

3) Mayile Mayile un thohai enge - SPB + PS or B.sasireka, not sure of the lady voice, name of the movie please?

Music4ever

thanks for the info :)

Sriram,

Yes the song was indeed composed & written by TRR, SPB had done a wonderful job of it as usual, such a romantic number!

[Oldposts]

how about the songs

1) Kavithai arangerum neram - PJ at his best!
2) Nee varuvai enna naan - PJ again superb!

I need help, all.

There was a song called 'Thamizhe Thamizhe en uyir thamizhe amuthe amuthe en mozhi amutheee', by SPB , the female version had PS, superb song, excellently rendered by SPB & PS. What was the name of the film, who acted in that film, please?

[Oldposts]

thanks everyone for the confirmation. a wonderful song indeed.

[Oldposts]

Raghu Sir,

I am sorry I don't recall the Surendar song you're referring to :(

Devan koyil mani is from Kuzhandhai Yesu (1984/ IJC Productions). Music by Shyam. Lyrics by Vairamuthu.

The female voice in Mayile Mayile is Jency. It is from Kadavul Amaitha Medai (1979/ Trisool Films)

[Oldposts]

Saravanan,

Vasasukku mariyathai koduthu ungalai sir endro koopital, neengalum ennai sir endru koopidureenghazhe, ithu sarithana :))

any way, thanks for the info

>>Kadavul Amaitha Medai << more info on the film please, like actors/ actresses/ md,..etc.

many thanks in advance :)

[Oldposts]

Saravanan Sir,

The was another song, possibly early 90&#39;s or late 80&#39;s, it had Dr.SPB & KSC, the song starts like this

&#39;I Love you, oru kadalum Malaiyum saatchi,
semmanile thaneer ena .........&#39;

superb song, it sounded more like a Hindi song than Tamil song :)

[Oldposts]

Raghu Sir,

Kadavul Amaitha Medai starred Sivakumar & Sumitra.
It was directed by SP. Muthuraman. Music: IR.

I remember one &#39;I love you&#39; song by SPB & Chitra from Vedan- 1993. Is that the song you&#39;re referring to?

[Oldposts]

Vedan - directed by Suresh Krisna - SarathKumar & Kushboo which had a vairamuthu&#39;s kavithai-turned-a-song that goes like

..
pOrkaLam maaralam pOrgaL thaan maarumaa
...

- right?

[Oldposts]

right! :)

[Oldposts]

Saravanan: matha details-laam yaaru kudukkuradhaam? :)

[Oldposts]

Out of nowhere the following song imposed itself upon me! I think music is by MSV.

Anandam vilayAdum veedu
idhu Anandam vilayAdum veedu
Oru nool kondu uruvAna mAlai
...

The song was sung by Susila. Any idea what movie?

[Oldposts]

Anandam vilaayadum veedu
naangu anbilgal ondraana koodu
ithu anandam vilaiyaadum veedu

oru nool kondu uruvaana maalai
ingu naal thorum poopookkum solai
ithu anandam vilayaadum veedu

- Sandhippu (1983/ Sivaji Productions/ Vaali/ MSV)- shoddy remake of Amitabh&#39;s Naseeb.

Happy and sad versions by PS & TMS

[Oldposts]

Sandhippu! Yes, I remember this movie. Sara, can you also please list the other songs in this movie?

I vaguely recall a number that goes

NallorgaL nAttai kAkka
namakkAga nammai kAkka
Happy New Year

Sung by TMS, music by MSV. Was this in Sandhippu?

Thanks :)

[Oldposts]

M4E, Nallorgal vaazhvai kakka is from Sangili.

Other songs in Sandhippu:

Raathiri nilaavil ragasiya kanaavil- VJ (my pick of the lot)
Vaarthai naanadi chellamma- TMS/VJ
Naan vaangi vandhendi naalu muzhappoovu- SPB/SJ
Sholapur raja Kolhapur rani- TMS/MV/PS/SPS
Unnai thaan kumbitten- TMS/SPB

[Oldposts]

Thanks, Sara. Have to listen to Sandhippu songs one of these days. At present, I can only recall the last two mentioned ones :)

[Oldposts]

Saravanan,

Thanks 4 the info, it could be vedan! :)

another song by Dr.SPB, again for sarath(heroine, Nagma), the songs starts like this &#39; Mazhai kaalam vanthal ...&#39;, superb song, I think the MD for Suresh Peters, pls verify, thanks :)

how about the song, &#39;Nee varu vai ena naan irunthen&#39;, by PJ, he has done great justice to this song, hatts off, any idea about the movie?

[Oldposts]

Raghu, the song is &#39;mayil thogai asaindhaal&#39; from Ragasia Police - 1995. MDs: Lakshmikant-Pyarelal.

&#39;Nee varuvaai ena&#39; is from Sujatha - 1980. MD: MSV. Kalyani Menon&#39;s version was equally good.

[Oldposts]

saravanan,

thanks for the info!,

Lakshmikant-Pyarelal was still composing in 1995 ??, i thought he sort of retired in late 80&#39;s! any way, I thought the song had a hindi touch :)

Who is kalyani menon??

[Oldposts]

Saravanan:

I think it is

aanandham viLayaadum veedu
naangu andrilgaL ondraana koodu

[Oldposts]

kalyanai menon is the mother of director Rajeev Menon

she had sung some songs

1) Nee varuai ena naan
2) Ye raajave
