Song: pArththAl murugan mugam

Film: Avasara Kalyanam

Music: T.R.Pappa

Lyrics: Kannadasan

Singers: T.M.Sounderarajan, P.Susheela

Year: 1972





quote]

one of my favorite "old is everlasting gold". What a charming and heart melting melody from T R Pappa? IS it possible to include this song "Aayiram Mutham Tharuven" from Avan Pithana? This is another of those treasures. I hope these 2 songs were not Hindi songs originally

Neel: Is Sangamam song for GG and Nirmala? LRE is fantastic in this song.

There is TMS-LRE climax song for Jai & KRV in the film Vayaadi. I don't remember the opening line, but it was out-n-out LRE song. Though KRV's style was bit out of sync, I liked simply just because of LRE's dashing style of singing. Please share if you have (requesting TMFL also).

tfmlover, you are welcome and I appreciate your contribution very much too.

natha1729, thanks. I will look for the Avan Pithana song. I don't have it now.

SN23, enggE ivLO nALA kANOm. Welcome back. I don't have the Vayadi song either. I will try to find it. I think oru pAttukku is GG and KRV, not VAN. But I have not been sure since you raised the question. :confused2:

Song: pArththAl murugan mugam

Film: Avasara Kalyanam

Music: T.R.Pappa

Lyrics: Kannadasan

Singers: T.M.Sounderarajan, P.Susheela

Year: 1972

"Avasara Kalyanam" starred Jaisankar, Vanisri, Nagesh and Ramaprabha.
There is something about Vanisri.
She always looked so classy in all her films I have seen

******

'Paarthaal murugam mugam paarkka vEndum..Kannadasan's holy of holies
murugan ,valli ,devaanai ,kannaa mani ,ponnar thirumEni nandhavanam , kandhan who else ..

Meerakrishna, Psst! Next song is by SJ also. Because you said I am the best. I will post it on Sunday. Don't tell anyone. :shhh:

madhu & SN23, thanks.

tfmlover, thanks for the details.

'Happy New Year' Neel and POTW folks! :)

Neel...do you want me to say that 'you're the best too'? Then get me this song 'inRu veNNilA IramAnadhE...Udal koNdadhAl nEramAnadhE' from the movie 'kAval kaidhigaL' sung by S.P.Shylaja along with either Krishna Chander or Deepan Chakravarthi!

I'm just kidding...You sure are the 'BEST'!...this is my kind request to host that song for me if you have it...thanks!

Priya, :)
I will look for that song. I am not sure if I have it.

:yes: Neel is the best :redjump:

madhu, :)

Pick #741

Song: sollAmal theriya
Film: Vilaiyaattu Pillai
Music: K.V.Mahadevan
Singer: S.Janaki
Lyrics: ?
Year: 1970

"Vilaiyaattu Pillai" directed by A.P.Nagarajan starred Sivaji Ganesan and Padmini. Today's pick is a lovely song in the pre-IR voice of SJ, innocently expressing her crush on the man she likes.

The lyrics capture the feelings of developing love so clearly and completely. It seems like the lyricist simply nails it in just the pallavi. No decoration, no ornamentaion, no embellishment... straight to the point... yet so beautiful.

sollAmal theriya vENdumE
sollavum thanimai vENdumE
kaN jAdai puriya vENdumE
yArum kANAmal sirikka vENdumE

http://raretfm.mayyam.com/stream/pow07/sollamal.rm

Hi..

"viLaiyAttu piLLai" is the film based on the novel written by kothamangalam subbu I think.. "Rao bahadur singaram"

and this song is for kanchana ( or for someone else.. I forgot :oops:)

nice lyrcis.. "mounam.. sammadham.. matRenna solvadhu ? :P"

Can you also post the song "Unnai Padaithathum" from "Nee Sirithaal Naan Sirippen" please?

I think vilaiyaattu pillai is the same movie where eeru perusa intha ooru perusaa song featured.

madhu & bobgalee, thanks.
ShankarV69, I will look for that song. Don't have it at the moment.

Pick #742

Song: kaNgaL thEduthu
Film: Pesu Maname Pesu
Music: M.L.Srikanth
Singer: M.L.Srikanth
Lyrics: ?
Year: 197X

Today's pick is a rare M.L.Srikanth song. Like all of his other (very few) songs I have heard, this is a very good song too. Pardon the audio quality.

Could not find any details on the film "Pesu Maname Pesu". I have made the assumption that the music for the film is by MLS. And of course the year has to be somewhere in the 1970s. Wish MLS had composed many more film songs. But he didn't.

Dear Neel,
Thanks for sollamal theriya vendumae..

Ethanai varudangalaga kathu irukiren - indha padalai

Kanagal thedudhu oli engae - Eppodho ketta padal.

Haunting tune.

Dhievamae unnai naan sandhipeno............

Enna azhagana varthai........

Thank you Neel.

With Love,
USha Sankar.

Usha, you are welcome.
tfmlover, thanks for the details and the lyrics.

Pick #743

Song: thAli onRu
Film: Thirukkalyaanam
Music: Ilaiyaraja
Lyrics: Kannadasan
Singer: Vani Jairam
Year: 1978

Why do we feel the need to love? Why do we feel the need to be loved? Hard to explain. Or, may be there is no explanation. The reason why one chooses a particular person to love is just as unexplainable. This woman is in love with a man who is married to another woman. What is she to do? It is possible to distance herself from her lover. But, is it possible to erase the love? They say, once you fall in love [with someone] you never fall out. Love is never erased. Love never evaporates. Love never disappears. Love is only sacrificed.

The woman decides to stay in love. But to keep away from the lover. She would experience the love in her imagination. But she would sacrifice the expression of love. Because, she does not want to interfere in his marriage. She will not be a homewrecker. She is better than that. She even reveres her lover's wife. She would not do anything to hurt her. So, she decides to live and experience her love in her own heart and mind, but not by sharing a life with her lover. She is choosing a life of fantasy. But that is the only way her love can live on. Possibly that is the only way she can live on too.

thAli onRu thEvai enna mAnasIga vAzvil
tharmam ennun sannithiyil kAthal onRu pOthumadi

Every time I listen to VJ sing, at her pitch, full-throatedly, with the force of a wild river but with the clarity of a mountain stream, it brings tears to my eyes... especially the second charanam. VJ sings the first two lines with intensity.

sinthanaiyil vAznthirunthAl theiva sugam kOdi varum
sErAtha vAzvinilum kaNNiril kavithai varum

For the next two lines VJ brings down the intensity and softens the tone as though she is embracing her deity who lives in her heart.

uLLirukkum kOvililE Or iRaivan kudiyirukka
UrArkku kAtchi enna uNmaikku sAtchi enna

Sacrifice is divine. Sorrow becomes art.
Her love is her own secret and there is no need for proclamation.
The truth... is it her love? or is it the existence of divinity? or is it both?... the truth... needs no proof!
Wow! Where are you Kannadasan? Here is a big kiss for you!

Great tune and orchestration from the early Ilaiyaraja.

VJ gives nothing but a stellar performance every time IR gives her a composition.

Thanks to Vinoth for sending the song.

Dear Neel,
Beautiful write up came from you...

Your Words about Love is very nice and true...

"
Love is never erased. Love never evaporates. Love never disappears. Love is only sacrificed. "

True True True....

Indha paatai patri kelvi pattu iruken.
Mudhal muraiyaga ipodhu dhan ketkiren...

Thank you Neel.

With Love,
Usha Sankar.

Vijayakumar and SR.Vijaya couple; Srividya forming the third corner of the triangle. Hundreds of films with the same storyline... aluththu pOna aracha mAvu :-(

This powerful song is for Srividya, who gave very good performance in front of wooden faced Vijayakumar (these days VK is totally reversed). Guhanathan directed this movie, I guess. This film came almost after the success of GN's Madhura geetham.

Usha, thank you very much.
SN23, thanks for the details.
Next week we will have Pongal specials y'all ! :bluejump:

Song: samaiyalukkum maiyalukkum

Film: Pennai Vaazha Vidungal

Music: S.M.S

Lyrics: Kannadasan

Singers: T.M.Sounderarajan, P.Susheela

Year: 1969





"Pennai Vaazha Vidungal" starred Jaisankar, K.R.Vijaya, Sheela and others. The music is credited to S.M.S. I am guessing
that is S.M.Subbaiah Naidu.

Film: Anichamalar

Music: Shankar-Ganesh

Lyrics: One of (Mu.Mehta, Pulamaipithan)

Singers: Vani Jairam, Malaysia Vasudevan

Year: 1981








Happy Pongal!




"Anichamalar" starred Raja Bahadur (son of P.U.Chinnappa) and Lakshmikala in the lead. It was debut film for both actors. Today's pick picturized on the two lead actors is a lovely folk song shot on picturesque green farming lands.
