Interestingly, I heard the songs of that biggie for the first time directly in theater - when watching the movie...

'pOvOmA oorkOlam' from Chinnathambi, with Swarnalatha
What had been written about as compositions that happened within a very short time, went on to become huge hits in multiple languages! Typical IR speciality - to get the job done in remarkably short time and yet coming up with stunners! A very delightful song - with bird chirps, sweet flute phrases and nice string sections added to some excellent singing of a simple melody! Swarnalatha steals the show here, with SPB mostly providing a support role - much in line with the movie characters and what was expected to be shown on screen. Well, we need to talk a little bit more about the movie here rather than songs :-)
Historically, i.e. before the 90's, big stars doing 'appAvi / appirANi / pAvam' kind of roles have received tremendous response / emotional connect from TF audience. There could have been some mass psychology behind it. While the movies involving heroic stuff have been regular hits and dance+fight kind of masAlAs got watched a lot by people to forget their own worries etc, there had always been a lot more connect / attachment / long-term-love from public when the protagonist is shown to be suffering or in a disadvantaged position. Perhaps that reflected the condition of majority and thus the connect.
Take even NT, who had tremendous success with all kinds of roles (bombastic / arrogant / heroic - even villanous), there are some roles very dearly remembered of him where he played appirANi or "disadvantaged" characters. And, IMHO, appirANi character roles were the biggest attractions of KH overall, though he is a sakalakalAvallavar. KBR too took advantage of this fact and cashed on some self-pity roles to make it big in the early 80's (dAddy dAddy, wOh sAt din, En sOgakkathaiyakkELu, chinnanjiRu kiLiyE). If one cares to look at the biggest successes of M & M in the neighbor state, this had been generally the case as well. Also, such movies had an universal appeal and been hits across the country when remade in other languages also.
Now, coming to the hero of chinnaththambi - the movie that broke all prior BO records in TF and remains among the all-time-biggies in TF history, the same factor proved to be true. And Prabhu did an extremely good job there. I think this happens to be his most successful & most remembered role in his career. This song is a sweet demo of how he did that role to perfection. (I remember writing in detail about the picturization in that lost thread :-( )
I watched this movie on the "new" (devidurga) theater of Palakkad and as mentioned before, got to hear the songs for the first time there. Thoroughly enjoyed the sweetness of this number and others - even as the front benchers kept clapping along for a number of songs, making me happier :-) Have been listening to this number ever since on audio systems / car and there are days it went on repeat, even recently!
