JN you are correct. I think he appears for a minute or so in almost all of his films i have seen(as far as i know).

Ramki: Try 'yeru pootti povaaye' by Jikki for 'village feeling'.

SJ gives such songs all she has (all her limitations factored) and somehow, on most occasions, it works. Today's song is also a good example of her ability to assume "other" voices - aidhedhedhehe (or something like that, in the beginning of this one) Nathaaga Oni Vachchen (?) - the brief verse before a lovely flute rise and dip - show SJ doing what's become her signature - reveling in her vocal inventiveness. She offers a fine exposition in the charanams as well.
The chorus and varied voices/tones also hark back to a song from another age - composed by SC - "Bichchua" from Madhumati.

Even GA manages an a good outing as a lyricist is songs such as these. I haven't seen a kollththamallipoovu in this lifetime, but the brothers (with SJ) sure turn up a heady fragrance!

koll - koththamalli
GA manages a good outing - drop "an"

Ramki, Kothamalli poove is by IR and SJ. I guess it was not by MV.

I'm well aware of 'Kothamalli Poove,' and it is just as great a song as 'Siru Ponmani' and 'Ennathil Etho' from the same film ['Thoppiloru Naadhagam' I would call good, not great!

] Especially hear the interludes; that's something we cannot get from the present crop of composers!
