Pick of the week: 1 Mar to 5 Aug 2006

Ramki -

A good one, and one I am humming again after many, many moons!
I've always enjoyed PS-PJC duets, the immortal one among them being "Manjal Nilaavukku Indru Orae Sugam" from Muthal Iravu. Isn't that a stand-out duet for all time?

Btw, Marumagalae Vaazhga (Sau Din Saas Ke) had another scintillating composition by SG - "Abishekam Alankaram Archchanai Aarambam" (VJ/MVD), yes?

Best wishes for 2006 to all DFers!

thanks rajeshkrv

Naaz thanks for reminding 'alangaaram abishegam archanai aarambam'. It is from MV

Pick #239

Song: maharani unaithedi
Film: aayiram vaasal idhayam
Singers: SJanaki, Jayachandran
Lyrics: ?
Music: iLaiyaraja

Thanks to Naaz for requesting this song. He writes

They say you can't step into the same river twice. That lightning doesn't strike the same place twice. And that if you are bitten once, then you are shy - twice.
What do they know? Have they listened to the early IR?
Step, Strike, Bite - Ah, do it again!
Here's a duet that SSBs me every time, and leaves me craving for more...of the same! SJ defines the imaginative scope of the song with a feathery whisper, and we're transported to a world of endless beauty. A lovely paralysis; a joyous inertia. PJC pins ribbons of shimmering love all over the creation, and the duet lingers... like perfume, like memory, a touch of tenderness - always fresh, and infinitely original.
Aayiram Vaasal Idhayam was the film. The song was picturised on Sudhakar and Roja Ramani.
But the SSB belongs to IR. A Master - not just a Classic - is forever.
Welcome...to an unchanging feeling.


My(Ramki) 2 cents: Sudhakar is more of a comedian(Which he is in Telugu world) than a hero. Like chakkaLathi, nadhi ondru karai moondru, maandhoppu kiLiye,inikkum iLamai, peNNin vaazhkai, magarandham etc AVi is another one of his horrible movies.
The film had 2 heroines Radhika and Rojaramini pining for him.
Other songs i remember are
Kichu Kichu - SJ
en aasai vazhai kuruthe - MV, SPS, BSS
There is also another duet by VJ and BSS i think(For radhika and RR)

Ramki: paata kaaNomE? I get a Requested file not found http://raretfm.mayyam.com/pow06/maharanai_avi.rm message :(

Wishing you all a (Belated) Happy and prosperous 2006!

Ramki: Thanks.. am hearing this one after a very long time! Naaz's way of putting "..and leaves me craving for more...of the same!" is exactly how I feel. SJ's another gem! So much have been said...need I say anything more about PJ? Thanks for the song Naaz!

Naaz
I’m elated! Enchanting interludes, Janaki’s humming prelude, JC-Janaki what a chemistry with a touch of rag gowri manohari!!

Ramki, Thanks a lot for your enthusiasm and dedication!
Thirumbi thirumbi vandhu keppen naan raaja pattu!!

love, vinatha

Great Song Ramki

Happy new year to all!

King of Interludes wins..

Thanks Naaz/Ramki

Bala

Dear Ramki and Nazz,
Thanks for the rare GEM !!!!
With Love,
Usha Sankar.

Ramki, Maharani song resemles sindhu nadhi kari oram song in most of the places. SJ's shivering singing is very obvious, whereas PJC maintains very well.

next is PJ + VJ song?
