Alias! Tho I saw RS post, I stopped replying when RS started comparing to Beethoven & MJ (global appeal - americans to vadugapattians) to ARR (thiruppi pottu vanginar ARR, vadugapattians - americans), a potential composer who is still composing for film music.
Here is to prove Roja is far far better than Annakili.
Annakili had 5 songs with title song getting repeated twice.
1. Annakili Title - SJANAKI - No words excellent song and it was craze all over TN (please note.not even outside TN).
2. Adi Rakiyee - Janaki - good not sensational
3. Sonthamillai - Susheela - Very poor.
4. Annakili Title - TMS - As the original
5. Maachane Pathelaga - Janaki - very Good.
Now lets compare Roja
1. Rukumani - sensational.. This songs had so much craze all over India with Baba Sehgal voice in Hindi and in Tamil, I remember in Devi paradise the people were going crazy.
2. Chinna Chinna - Do I have to say anything for the song which changed the face of IFM.
3. Kadhal Rojave - par Excellent. One of the best sad romantic song ever produced in IFM.
4. Pudhu Vellai Mazhai - Excellent. Look at the tune and composition of this song. Name any song in this catagory which matches its calibre.
5. Thamiza Thamiza - National Anthem for Tamilians across the world.
Now comparing them and reading the below article about IR which actually praises IR, it says kavikul in 1977 established his position and only one song from Annakili (1976) that made IR hit.

So IR dudes, ARR is way beyond compare and if you guys have guts prove it wrong. ARR became a sensational from album 1 and all his songs in Roja are beyond comparision to IR Annakili where only one song is big hit.
One last post in this thread:
"Ilayaraja came on the scene 45 years after film music had first appeared. When he entered Tamil films in the mid 1970s, there was stagnation, in film music and in the type of films that were being made. Ilayaraja's innovative creations came as a whiff of fresh air. The song that made him famous in his debut film "Annakili" (1976) "Annakili Unnai Theduthu" (Annam is looking out for you) was authentically folk and soon was playing throughout Tamil Nadu. The film "Kavikuyil" (1977) stabilised his position in the film world. "
Quoted from the above Hindu article...where does it say "only one song from Annakili" was a hit?
People seem to have problem, not just in being poorly informed, but even in grasping what information is available on print:-(
Precisely why I said earlier, that, it's pointless to take part in such discussions...

alias,
You may remember people going crazy over 'Rukumani' while we remember people coming from all over TN to see the face of Raja on the Silver jubilee function of 'Annakili'
All the songs from 'Annakili' were super duper hits all over TN and only ignorant fools like you would say only one song was sensational from that movie

Thanks for making my day this fun filled :thumbsup:
Rajasarnam, If you want to escape by calling it fun, thats fine with me.. paavum what will u do. Roja is incomparable with album like Annakili. RS, only people from TN was coming to see IR but the entire nation woke up to see this great MD ARR.

app_engine, it says The song that made him famous in his debut film.... "Annakili Unnai Theduthu".... and soon was playing throughtout TN". If it would said "The Annakili movies songs were playing throughout TN", then it is album of annakili that made IR famous, but i do not see anywhere that kind of statement. You think you know everything but it is you who could not identify the phrase no me :-)
Sorry bro... there is no wrong in accepting once ignorance.
I am really sorry if this sounds rude, but the comparison between Annakkili and Roja were pathetic, to put it mildly.
Atleast now you accepted that only this nation 'woke up to see this great MD ARR'. and not the whole globe according to your prior claims. You are improving :thumbsup:Quote:
