Sorry, I meant lyricist only, not the singers.
BTW, there may be quite some movies with different lyricists for each song.

But Pavalar has written many other songs, Mostly sang in communist medaigaL By IR & Co, I have a collection 'paavalar vaazhvum, paadalgaLum'
Yep, Thesedays Vidyasagar uses a team of 5 or 6 lyricists and gives one song each ... But 8 may be the first, in ULiyin OsaiQuote:

"Devan Thandtha Veenai' - Unnai Naan Sandhithen
(the SPB/SJ version is so difficult to find - even though Pj/SJ version is easily avialable)
Bala
Oh, i thought Vaali had written the lyrics for this song!Quote:

atleast 3-4 songs (which are nice), could have sounded lot better if the sound engineer worked. IR has been plagued by this lack of quality for a long time and still it is.
dochu,
I had always a feeling that IR works out an average (meaning the mean average of sounds that will be heard) sound quality for his songs to sound good in a local player aswelas a hi-fi player. His 80's songs which had great sounds were played in a 'kozhai speaker' aswel a good quality tape recorder those days and it sounded great in both systems. Today his songs can be played in a hi-fi system aswel a locally made Rs.1000 DVD/VCD/ACD/MP3 player and would sound great in both players. :)
Iam finding more nuances in his 80's songs in regards to recording of sounds, when listening in an IPOD or a Hi-Fi system now, which were not noticed by me before, Yet I had loved those songs, then. For instance the 3 voice couterpoint of Raaja in 'Raaja Raajathi Raajan intha Raaja' was a revelation to me only few years ago. I just love this song 'now' for this and also the way rhythm revolves around from left aural field to right aural field not leaving out the field in between too. There are scores of other songs of which I awe at the sound recording, I notice about them only while listening to it in an IPOD or a good System.
A 'Sakkarakatti' can only be enjoyed in a hi-fi system, period! :P
GOOD that you are enjoying 'Dhanam' Better than before.
There is no need for firing his 'Sound Engineer' He is perfectly OK. who else could have come up with the awesome sound of flesh hitting flesh in 'Sathya' ( Ofcourse with the guidance of Raaja and Kamal) :!:
Just because you and me are accessible to an IPOD/Hi-Fi system its unfair to abandon the multitude of people who listen to these songs in local FM Radios ( you get one for as cheap as Rs.100) or a local player. Raaja Cares for them is what I believe :oops:
RS,
It is ok if he wants to cover mass - but I miss the nuances (clarity) of his music. :x
Anyway, by any chance do you have better quality of 'Mayilu'? I tried improving the sound with soundforge - but nothing helped.
Yanathey, vellimal, and kirku adi kirukku have played non-stop for a while in system now. :-)
Add to that Rahman owns a full fledged studio of his own and mandates that he will only use that. Raja OTOH has his floor in Prasad lab and if the movie is big and there is money available uses a different studio/ full sized orchestra - So cost plays a big factor - but this atleast keeps him accessible to every layman producer and institute fresh pass out director.Quote:

Added to that - he also lends his voice to a letter for Arun (Kamal) from his Father!!!
