Naan Unney Ninaichen is a classic classic. SG whenever they gave super hits they became classics without match"
Nalla Manam Vazhga (who can dispute the unparalleled beauty of this song)
Kaettadhu Kidaithathu Kodi Kanakkil
Paniyum Naane Malarum Niye (what feeligns this song gives me on a rainy day beats out the other two favorites that too from IR - O Nenjame Idhu Un Raagamey and Pani Mazhai Vizhum Paruva Kulir Ezhum)
I think the 70s and upto mid 80s until when SG were around, TFM retained the charm built from the 50s itself. After 85 or so when IR also lost all competition, he went into different sounds and feel and also seemed dull for sometime.
SG is one duo that i cherish the most. I think IR even gave a tribute in one song to the SG atyle of composing - it is in Poonthalir - Nenachethallam ...... Yen Kaadhal Raani. Hear it.
TFM needs to honor these underrecognized geniuses.
Of course, can we ever forget "Thai Meedhu Sathiyam" songs for Kamal- Nadigan Kadhali; Vadivelan manasu vechchan; Vandi Karan Magan songs - Paruthi Edukayiley; Devi Vandha Neram all regular songs morn and evenin on ungal viruppam

CM: I am definetely with u on the sentiments you expressed.Thanks as well for correcting me on the film for the song "Endhan pon vanname". On the devotionals I remember one song ringing in Mylapore during those days and here it is:
"Karpoora nayagiyae kanagavalli Kali mahamayee karumariyamma". I think it was renderd by Manorama. Which reminds me one more cinema song by her:
Manja kayiru thaali manjakayiru...:-)
raj: Thanks for the details furnished. U have exactly echoed my thoughts on Edo Oru nadiyil song.
Today's trailer for me centered around my craze to see films shot abroad. Notably I remembered the following films/songs:
Malai rani mundhani sariya sariya (Ore vaanam ore bhoomi *ing KRV,Jaishankar and Seema)
Germaniyin Sendhen malare and
Deiviga raagam from Ullasa parvaigal
Joyful Singapore Colorful Malaysia (SPB & VJ) from Varuvaan Vadivelan
Seeing the dolphins jump about in Ore vaanam Ore bhoomi was such a thrilling experiance for me then...:-). Those were the days when our/my parents/grandparents kept track and even chose films we saw !!!!!
And then who can forget the unforgettable Ninaithaale Inikkum!!!!!

Raj,
We seem to have something in common here, yeah I was a big fan of songs shot in foreign films. To the extent the first time I was on the Singapore Airlines bound for TOkyo my first time outside India. I couldnt contain my heart singing "Vaanile vEsham kalaindhadhu nadagamanadhu thiruvizha...." complete till the last line "Aagayathil boogambam arputhangal aarambam..".
I used to always kindal adichufy MSVs way of composing for those songs shot in forign locations, it usually start with a sound like a spoon made to hit on a glass tumbler. Maybe because that he associated that sound with the Far east and most of the songs were either shot in Singapore/malaysia etc.
One rare song that I remember seeing is a song in some movie that had Sivakumar and Rathi, the song goes like "Paarunga Tokyoooooo Juliet Romeoooo" oppsoite to the Shinjuku station. I still remember that because I saw the song for the first time in Tokyo.
My fav. forign shot songs of yore are
1. Orey Vaanam orey bhoomi...
2. Songs of Ullaasa Paravaigal
3. Ninaithale inikkum
4. Songs of Priya
And ofcourse the all time fav "Sorgame endraalum adhu nammooru pola varumaa"
Isn't Devadhai oru devadhai from the movie pattaakathi bairavan?
Music4ever, yes!
Music4ever / Eden -
Thank you both for the correction and confirmation. I was not too sure about the film...and I guess I confused the Devadhai song with Roja Ondru (must be the feel of the tunes)
from Kairasikkaran.
PB had another lovely SJ/SPB duet "Engengo Sellum En Ennangal, Inge Than Kandaen Pon Vannangal."
Naaz, I forgot how the tune "engengo" in PB goes! I used to be a fan of that song too back then.
Music4ever -
I have a really scratchy tape version of "Engengo" (engeyo oru moolaiyil, oru drop-out niraindha cassette-il) but don't know if there is a site which has this number. This duet was and is still one of my all time SJ-SPB moments. I'd love to listen to a good quality recording of this song (kaettu romba naalachchu) if somebody can send me a clear version...
Naaz, let's hope that someone reading our exchange would let us know of a site. Thanks.
Music4ever -
From your lips to some punniyavan's ear...Let's hope
"Engengo" comes "Ingengo" soon :-)

Naaz,
I have the engengo sellum song in MP3.
I also saw the song in one of the tamil MP3 Sites under SPB collections, which I do not remember. Searching Tamilterra.com or other related sites, you may find it. I remember seeing 10 or 12 of SPB rare 70's hits in that site.
Thanks
e. hari -
Could you kindly send me the MP3 at the address provided. Thank you for this favour!
Swara.com had this song I believe...but the site now seems to be defunct?
On the subject of Engengo...the song prompts a trace of a more recent (still 80s) composition by IR and the same singer duo:
"Paattuthalaivan Padinal Pattuththan, Koottam Rasikkum Thalame Pottuththan" (Idhaykkovil)
'Yengengo sellum en ennangal', 'Devathai ' - I found in 'MusicIndiaOnline' site recently. But the audio quality leaves much to be desired.

Mythila -
You are right. I found the file at musicindia to be just so-so. What really gets me is that the official IR site also does not feature any fine quality files of these memorable compositions. Somebody at Rajaangham should get their act together soon!
Naaz.........Ur reference to the newer songs such as Raja raja chozan naan prompts me to remember
Kolusu Kolusu esapadu kolusu ( I remember it as a Ramki/Gowthami film)
Today's memories for me were around songs which were broadcast on Radio(Ceylon)but we had to keep the volume really low to avoid adverse reactions from Grandpop.These songs really gave us goosebumps for us but he would frown at us for listening to those songs for their lyrics!!!

Thoda varavo thondaravo from film IruNilavugal and MD: Rajan Nagendra. He has done a good job in IruNilavugal.
Other good songs are
1. Anandam adhu ennada
2. Anbulla mannano sung by SPB/PS
Thoda varavo thondaravo ===
Thoughts go years back. The original was a wonderful duet by RajKumar and SJ in the movis 'Giri Kanya'. What an excellent composition 'Nagu Nagutha Nee Baruve'.
I was very angry with KD when he wrote a lyric that I cannot sing aloud in front of the family members. Even now I feel sad that such a great tune got a 'DUBBINGISH' lyrics.
Great singing once again by SJ (was it Rajan or Nagendra humming with her?)
Balaji
Engengo sellum is available on mp3.com I think. Just go there and search for 'Golden Hits' or 'tamil power', you will definitely get it along with Poonthalirada and others
Mythila thanks for the trivia on Rajan Nagendra, I'd no idea that Anandam adhu ennada was composed by a nontamil MD.
Raj and raj, 'ithuthaan muthal raathiri' is from Oorukku Uzhaippavan. the posters had MGR in full coloured 3 piece suit holding a big machine gun. awe !
Today's walk back in time yielded a couple of songs and here I go:
1.
Kadalin alaigal pongum
Anaal Karayai thaandumo
Perum(?) Karayai theendumo
One of the charanams start off as
"chinna chinna kaaranathaal..."
This song is a SPB solo and for classical buffs it is asal agamrk Desh!!!! A real nice song, more information on lyrics, film and MD( looks to me like IR) requested.
2.
Vizhigal Meeno Mozhigal Theno
Nilvin magale needaano
Another SPB solo and this time around its Kalyani
I remembered 2 more JC songs!!!!
1.
(Saamathil)? Pootha malli chandirana saatchi vechu
Able to hum the rest but the lyrcis miss me.
2.
Saamakozhi yeh koovudamma
Aanandam Adhu Ennada - Rajan Nagendra? what a super song! ammadi thamasha aadada - SPB' singing takes the song to great heights

The last song reminds me of the other great song in the file "Solai kuyile kaalai kadhire" in the more common madhyamavathi raagam. Very good song and if I remeber right was also picturised well.
Todays list from me
Aadungal paadungal pillai ponvandugal
PEsa koodadhu verum pEchchil sugam hoi - Aduthavarisu
Oru kunguma chengamalam malar .. thanga mugam - Aaradhani.
One more good hamsadhwani from Vaazhkkai
Kaalam maralaam nam kaadhal maarumaa...
Im not sure if this song was discussed before, I also dont know the movie too
"Enna solli naan ezhudha en mannavanin manam kuliraa.."
Kamal for Mohan in the film Oh maane maane
Ponmaanai theduthe en veenai paadhuthe...
Saravanan Sir!!
Thanks a lot for the fantastic input ( as usual!!!). I am not aware of the film or the song
situation for Kadalin Alaigal.Probably you can add more light in that direction.
Could you also post the complete lyrics as well? TIA..:-).
I thought over the song, the lyrics,the choice of melody and the rendition.IMO the lyrics
and the raaga gel so very well.Look at the involvement with which SPB renders it..I think
he loves Desh...reminds me of his dialogue with Suhasini in Mandhal Urudhi Vendum
and he sings the pallavi of the classic Desh song from Or-Iravu, "Thunbam Nergaiyil
Yazh edutthu nee inbam serkamaattaya".Would luv to hear that sound track of SPB's rendition
of that classic.
BTW is kadalin alaigal song available somwhere on the net? Perhaps can request bb to post in
SOTD .WOuld luv to hear it.For the benefit of others ..Desh is a light classical melody
and you have only the so called tukkadas-smallish compositions rendered at the end of
concerts in it. But SPB's rendition IMO is a treatise on this raaga. Apart from Thunbam
Nergaiyil and Kadalin Alaigal I dont remember any major song in Desh. More info welcome.
Incidentally remembered a few more songs!!!
1.
Uravugal Thodargathai
Dinam dinam valarpirai
Iniyellam sugame-JC Film?/MD?
2.
Thogai ilamayil
Aadivaruguthu vaanil Mazhai varumo
then sindum neram naan padum raagam
This one is an SPB(solo??) in another Carnatic scale Lathangi!!!
CM ...I very well remember SP Shailaja's rendition of Solai kuyile. Offcourse the other songs u posted as well namely Pesakoodathu and Kaalam maaralam...:-).
Manadhil Urudhi vendum brings to mind the KJY song "Sangathamizh Kaviyae Sandhangal sollum Isai kuyile"....!!
