I've been DYING to know the details of the song "Thamizh Paadattum" for a LOOOONG time. And now, I finally know. By the great MSV.
Jeyanthi aadaranjalikal.
Thank you. I'm only wondering because I am working on a list of Kannada light songs (not limited to film songs, but also includes private albums and devotional songs) that are raga-based. Thus far,...
Amazing pick. btw, the raga is Revathi.
Hello All,
I'm very glad to have found this thread, and just in time too. I just started to get in the groove with Kannada film songs. I'm compiling a list of Kannada film and album songs based...
I'm sorry, but this sounds blasphemous.
The above song... enna film? Sangeetham?
Dear Friends,
There's this one song sung by Malaysia Vasudevan from the late 1970s or early 1980s called "Unnakkanne Julie Adi Potti Vachcha Neele" It starts like "Julie... Enakkini Kaali." It...
How about the other great musicians of this world? Aren't we being a little fanatical here?
In Malayalam, this song is "Samayamithapoorva Sowbhagyam..." the semi-classical number.
I was pleasantly surprised by the Neruppukkul Eeram song, "Kannil Ondru Kanden." I was thinking it would be just another cheesy, unimaginative song, especially since I haven't heard hitherto that...
There's a beautiful duet called "Thamizh Paadatham Manamaalatham, Udal Koodathum Suvai Ezhathum..." (I don't remember the exact words) It's a duet featuring S. Janaki and a male singer-- I'm not...
In "Kaayaatha Kanagathe," I love the substitution of harmonium for violin. I don't think the song is set to Jonpuri though- to me, it sounds more like Bhairavi.
I'm sure this is a natural consequence of people in the industry as a whole taking the art of composing music as a joke. Most of the people in the industry nowadays are living a lie of one kind or...
There's this one old P. Susheela song entitled "Nilaiyaaga En Nenjil Oli Veesum Geetham Neeye Illaamal En Kaathal Vedham" (or something along those lines). It's a GREAT song set to Mohana raagam (or...
interz:
Raagam is Madhyamavathi.
In regards to the Devendran song in 'Aangalai Nambathe,' it's like a cent per cent lift from the song in 'Paasamalar' with the same title. I wonder how MSV and TKR took it.
I'd like to point...
Right. With the exception of AR Rahman, I don't know if any South Indian MD has enjoyed the same respect in the North. I always find reviewers decrying any work by South Indian composers (any...
"Amudhe Thamizhe" is easily one of my fave IR songs... not just of that time period, but in ALL of Raja's 30 years of MDing. Almost needless to say, I can't tell you how expert the orchestration...

When you say "Not all movies by IR were examples to be emulated by the youth and the general population," and that "most of our movies are sexist, vulgar, many are casteist and a growing...
Rajasaranam
Rajasaranam, you are right on the first one. But FYI, I keep sideburns, a mustache and a goatee. Plus I have a flat chest. And what's this "you have more money than you need"? ...
Hypocrisy at its peak! :P
Now, I have no qualms with 'Thiruvaasagam.' But what social significance are you talking about?
You may have a broad mind by the standards of you and I, but is...
Mr. Judge
You mean, if IR uses manual orchestra! You can't be too sure.
I think I should also mention "Shubhavelai Naalainthu" from Thangamalai Thirudan (a Telugu dubbed film). The song starts with a Native American flute solo, and then we hear some Oriental-sounding...
