KV,
I asked the Director on twitter and he said CDs will be available from tomorrow.
Nice effort Senthil. I have put up the link in twitter.
Everyone,
Do watch the Keeravani video. That a popular and successful director like him singing so many Raja songs shows his humility and love for Raja. It also shows the impact that Raja has had...
app,
True. I too love that tabla version a lot. Lot of emotion in that.
kiru,
Ah yes. The orchestra is definitely good but in movies like this, the synth was being 'heard' more prominently. Raja had ofcourse synth from the 80s itself but here it was in a different way...

bala,
Exactly. I am looking forward to more such videos. I have my own theories about some songs and the way they are structured. Will be nice to see if I have got what he was thinking right :)
I deleted the Song No. 31 because there is confusion as to who the music director is. I came to know from Twitter that 'Thaikulame Thaikulame' is actually by Deva. I had gone by Thiraipaadal but a...

VG,
Thanks for the youtube and Vicky's link. That's a nice idea actually. People can read Vicky's wonderful explanation and also enjoy the song. It also ensures we don't miss this song. And...
Baroque / thumburu,
The three films of Vishwanath all had beautifully picturized songs. 'Sagara Sangamam', 'Swarna Kamalam' and 'Swathi Muthyam'. Unfortunately his fourth film with Raja,...
baroque,
Aaha. Two outstanding number there. 'devanin kovil' and 'thirutherila varum'. Both of this property of being very melodious and at the same time touching your heart. 'devanin kovil' right...
RR,
Unfortunately my tape does not have the details of lyricist or singers. Luckily raaga.com has the details. Illayaraja and Panju Arunachalam it seems.
...
Mahesh,
Thanks for the reco. Will play them soon. The Kadhal Kavidhai song we will discuss in the year it was released.
app,
Lovely songs those two. Also 'engirundho azhaikkum' and 'mouname mounamen' are wonderful melodies. Wish the later was sung by SPB.
Now listening to this beauty of an album. I just tweeted that if such movies do not occupy the top tier in Raja's canon, it shows the depth in Raja's music.
...
crv,
Thanks for the info.
Bala,
"Poor guys they cant come online and say it. I always feel south TN van drivers are the greatest Raja fans."
Absolutely, Van and bus drivers. I am sure app_eng will fully agree with you....
Jai,
Fully agree with you on 'amman koil'. Definitely Arunmozhi's best by a mile.

aakarsh,
'Kadhalukku Mariyadhai' splits Raja fans down the middle :) One set which hates that music and says Raja's music went downhill from there. Another set which loves it because that showed...
Bala,
Fair criticism of the title I agree. Infact the title was kept deliberately for two reasons. One, because there is this myth that with the advent of Rahman, Raja became a non entity and...
groucho,
LOL.

I have started the 90s Raja writeups. So please go there as well :)
