Pick #555

Song: AgAyam bUmi yAvilum
Film: Veeramani
Music: ?
Singers: K.J.Yesudas, ?
Lyrics:
Year: 1994

A slow and smooth melody from the 90s. Considering all that that was churned out in the 90s this is a pleasant change. Nice tune and interludes. Does anyone have any information about the MD of this film? Do not know who the female singer is either (Lalita Sagari???). "Veeramani" starred "Krodham" Prem and Yuvarani apparently. Surprised to learn that Prem has acted in 9 or 10 films so far. Because I could only recall about 4.

Since I don't have "Manjal Nila" at the moment, for the time being this song substitutes the nEyar(Priya) viruppam.

Pick #556

Song: Or iravil kARRu
Film: Puriyatha Puthir
Music: S.A.Rajkumar
Singers: P.Susheela, K.J.Yesudas
Lyrics: S.A.Rajkumar
Year: 1990

S.A.Rajkumar was climbing up the ladder very fast in the late 80s with his beautiful songs from "Chinna Poove Mella Pesu", "Masasukkul Mathappu", etc. He was certainly good for a few years and then, something happened. He got stuck in a loop. He still has not found his way out. Today's pick is from his better years. The song simply sounds so different compared to what he has been composing(recycling) from the deadly loop. While listening to his early compositions one cannot help but think why SAR wont try a little harder and reinvent himself.
