It's me again. Being a tamil music fan...I couldn't resist starting this thread...please post in this thread as fans of Tamil music and not as HCIR or HCARR fans....list the songs that you think will appeal to the senstivities of a generation that has gone through the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s. I have just listed out a few ARR nos here that I have found older people appreciate :

1) Kaadhal Rojave - Roja
2) Pudhu Vellai Mazhai - Roja
2) Netru illatha maatram - Pudhiya Mugam
3) Kannukku Mai Azhagu - Pudhiya Mugam
4) En Veetu Thotathil - Gentleman
5) Putham Pudhu Bhoomi - Thiruda Thiruda

Add your picks.

  How did you guys miss out 'Yenge Enathu Kavithai' from KK??? I'd boycotted KK for featuring non-Tamil actresses but stealthily endorsed it after hearing this one!!

  tamizha tamizhaa from roja is one number that would go well with all generations.
  
  
• From: Aalavandhan (@ 203.106.162.78) on: Wed Sep 25 08:25:54 EDT 2002
  
  Basically, I think a majority of ARR songs do appeal to the older generation, except for his fast numbers.
  
  By older generation, I am talking about those 45+.
  
  30+ people en kooda sandaikku vanthidaatheenga. :)
  
  
• From: C~P (@ 202.9.181.223) on: Wed Sep 25 13:04:48 EDT 2002
  
  Aalavatdhan,
  puriyuthu! .... but ur inviting trouble :))
  
  mm.....speaking of ARR-Nithyashree songs do u think Manmatha maasam wud appeal?? .... i have the slightest of feelings that it wudnt....what say??
  
  
• From: tigger (@ 205.219.204.23) on: Wed Sep 25 16:25:24 EDT 2002
  
  I am in my early 30s but would definitely consider myself to belong to the older generation as far as TFM is concerned since I dislike quite a number of ARR's songs!
  
  in no particular order
  
  great albums:
  Jeans
  Tiruda Tiruda
  Roja
  Taj Mahal
  Kadhalan
  Duet
  Kadhal Desam
  
  great songs:
  roja roja (KD)
  enna vilai azhagey (KD)
  Usilambatti Penkutti
  Nila Kaigirathu (Indra)
  Athangara maramey
  Pachai Niramey
  
  good songs:
  Kannalaney (Bombay)
  Vellai Pookal (KM)
  
  the list is not comprehensive and is all IMO. I might have missed some that I like.

  Are people just a little younger than ARR considered young or old ? :) I am not necessarily fond of rhythm numbers..they are okay to listen in the background but I will sit and listen only to good melodies. One such song which ARR has done while doing a fantastic one is - poongkARRilE un ..from uyirE..ofcourse the fast number I am referring to is thaiya thaiya..
  
  
• From: Kaumudi (@ 136.142.153.250) on: Wed Sep 25 20:52:15 EDT 2002
  
  To add to kiru's song - some of the melodies (soothing I may add) which have only a basic rhythm that ARR has given and the ones which I like are the following. I guess I belong to kiru's generation. Call me old or new:-)
  
  Thoda thoda malarndhadhenna (Indira)
  En mael vizhinda (May maadham)
  En kaadhalae (Duet)
  Theendai (En swaasa kaatrae)
  Snegidhanae (Alaipaayuthe)......

  OLD PPL MIGHT JUST LISTEN N ENJOY IF U PLAY THE SONG ....BUT I DON THINK THEY WILL PLAY THEMESELVES ....MAY BE 'IRUVAR' SONGS .....

  Interesting thread, cosmo.
  
  U can't really judge wat old generation wud like. My conservative dad, who is 55, likes even No Problem. Of course he wont go out of his way to listen to it, but enjoys it when he hears them.
  Some others:
  
  Evano Oruvan-AP
  Poo Kodi-Iruvar
  Kalaimaane-Taalam
  Kaathal illamal-Taalam
  Porkalam-Thenali
  Chithirai Nilavu-VCCR
  Venilave-Minsara Kanavu
  Rajjyama-Baba
  Sakthi Kodu-Baba
  
  among many more...
