Reason?

App,
Pinnitteenga, ore ball-a naalu sixer adichamaathiri! :clap: Yes film was a dud as far my memory could recollect (memory will get better as the year advances ;)). I think you have still lot of hidden information on casettes/players, even upto which brand was available at that time. Oh man, Amazing memory!
But we used to see the songs on doordharshan as everyone likes that young and handsome Kamal. But my favorite is Vaalibame vaa vaa and Nadakkatuum Raja. Wonderful carefree singing by SPB.
Getting back to poonthaliraada..
One could not just hum the song alone -- ever.
Once I finish humming the charanam, immediately i am compelled to hum the instrumental lines and
it is such a pleasure to sing them - what an intricate melody on each of the instrumental lines.
enakkum oru PM parcel...Quote:

It went on to become one of the most popular models ever sold in TN (I've seen in many houses / shops etc around the state and it costed around 2K in 1982/83).
The most interesting part about Panasonics those days was the 'demo' cassette given with the system. This particular stereo model had Japanese recording of the "Mozart's Symphony # 40 first movement" arranged / orchestrated / recorded by Paul Mauriat. (He was very popular in Japan it seems).
I didn't know at that time it was by PM but was stunned at the recording / output from the player where sounds emerged from the small tweeters as well!
(Years later, when I heard the same piece in the "Love is blue" cassette by PM...should I say I had tears / pullarips etc?...another kosuru info, that friend is my co-bro now)
Wow! that's a lot of information. Thanks for sharing. Even I had similar experience but not that big like you. When we were in school studying 9/10/11/12th standard. One of my classmate friend use to have a Panasonic, but not sure if we are referring the same model, but he used to play only MJ, Boney M, ABBA just to showcase the clarity of sound, crystal clear. Haven't heard anything like that at all even today. But that one is like a big tape recorder (radio model with handle at the top) and has two big speakers (and little twitter by it's side). These are the times, when our schools will be half-a-day and we used to go to his home and spend time till our evening train to home (only train at 5:40 pm). Beautiful memories!
App - Thanks for 4 songs in quick succession.
Couple of months back, I was googling to find out which movie Vizhiyil Un Vizhiyil song belonged to. After knowing it was from Ram-Laxman, I thought my 8 year old daughter may like it and started playing it from some website on a Saturday. It was STUPID!! Nobody wanted to watch it after 30min. Today it is difficult for us to believe KH acted in movies like Neeya and this one.

Thanks for the info, I have never heard of this movie "Ram Lazman" or it's songs! Many thanks :)

Congrats for bringing this thread to 100 pages! When I started the thread, I was only able to bring it up to 10 pages, after that, I had given up hope! Till you arrived! :notworthy:
Just a few days back I was browsing the Ram Laxman page in Thiraipaadal and skipped most songs after 10-15 seconds. WIll have to revisit. Thanks app.
Vaalibame vaa is ofcourse a rework of the fabulous naa paruvam from Yugandhar, remake of Don/Billa by NTR. Suresh65 wrote about it in detail in his blog and linked it here a few days back. Google mannar app can retrieve the link.
