And we arrive at the 1000 mark. YAY!!! On this happy musical occasion I would like to take a moment to thank everyone who has helped make this possible.
First of all, thanks to RR for his support, and for providing a platform to play so many rare melodies for all of us around the world to enjoy. The unheard songs, the disappeared songs and the rare songs that we play here have recaptured so many old memories for us, good and bad. Times that will never come back. But with the help of the songs we can look back at those times and even taste them, if not relive them. The songs also create new memories. And then there is the element of surprise. You don't know what song will be posted next, and sometimes when it will be posted :) . Most of the time even I don't know what song will be posted next, until the song is uploaded and the post is submitted :) . For making all these happen, "Thank you, RR!".
Second of all, for posting nearly half of the one thousand songs, for the witty comments that accompanied the songs and for the depth of knowledge when it comes to rare songs, I say "Thank you, Ramki!".
So many members and non-members have contributed to this thread by sending songs and song details. Without their contribution we couldn't have come this far. Nor would we have the variety in the selection of songs. I thank all the contributors for their effort, support and for being there to count on at all times. I am not mentioning names because I am sure I will miss a name or two and that won't be nice.
It takes a lot of encouragement to be motivated to keep this going. For that I thank all the members who regularly visit and post to share their knowledge, opinion, and their listening experience. Again, I am not mentioning names because I don't want to leave out any by mistake.
I thank all who listen to the songs but do not post (Hiii!!! :wave: I know you are there!!!), for being good ol' music fans. I invite you all to share your knowledge, opinion and your listening experience with the rest of the world in the future.
If not for the internet so many of us will be in the dark about so many rare songs. If not for the internet so many of us would simply have to keep our rare song collection and our knowledge about the artistes to ourselves and not be able to share it with others. For that, finally, I thank the internet. :notworthy:
On to today's pick... Adukkumalli starred Sujata and Vijayakumar in the lead. Being a K.S.Gopalakrishnan film the story was obviously a heavy family drama built around a main female character (Sujata). The song expresses that she loves her life in spite of the poverty and hardship she faces. Life is beautiful! In VJ's voice!
Happy 1000th!

mana mOhananE (Gnanasoundari)
http://raretfm.mayyam.com/pow07/imag...nasoundari.jpg
Pick #1003
Song: mana mOhananE
Film: Gnanasoundari
Music: S.V.Venkataraman
Singers: P.A.Periyanayaki, T.R.Mahalingam
Lyrics: Kambadasan
Year: 1948
Gnanasoundari starred M.V.Rajamma and T.R.Mahalingam in the lead. M.V.Rajamma started her acting career in her early teens in the mid 1930s in Kannada and quickly made her way into Tamil films. By the time Gnanasoundari was made the skinny teenager had transformed into a stunning young woman and a mature performer. Even as a teen she played the lead opposite big names such as P.U.Chinnappa and T.K.S. brothers. Some of her other early Tamil films include Yayathi(1938), Uthamaputhiran(1940), Madanakamarajan(1941), Gumasthavin Penn(1941) and Velaikkari(1949). She did many more Tamil films later on playing mother roles, one of the most famous being Karnan(1964) in which she played Kunthi.
Today's pick is a dream sequence picturized on the handsome T.R.Mahalingam and the beautiful M.V.Rajamma. A lot of veLLai udai thEvathais dance for the interludes, and that is the reason why the song takes so many unexpected turns during its course. TRM dreams and then describes the dream to MVR. She mischievously keeps questioning him to make him tell more of his dream and TRM very cutely makes it up as he goes.
