Yes, he said on his TV show , 'enodu paatu paadungal' !

Venki - எப்படி எல்லோரும் சிரிப்பைக் கட்டுப்படுத்திக் கொண்டு கவனமா இசையமைச்சாங்க என்பதே ஆச்சர்யமான விஷயம்.
:lol:
Plum, venki, that's some gyan! ARR also part of the group? Whoa! (so, all the wild drumming and african ideas, ellam kaatuvaasi karadi effecto?)
I find Vaasamilla Malaridhu to be strangely funny. TR maybe hummed two lines and then suddenly had a 'creative block' (what else can one expect with that jungly mane and ruffian beard?) and they ended up repeating just the two lines throughout the song!
#19 நந்தவனத்தில் வந்த குயிலே
(அன்னை ஓர் ஆலயம், 1979 )
A true wild-life song :lol:
Towards the end of the song, SPB changes his voice to sound like a wild beast also (the sound which supposedly created trouble for his throat in Kamal's Indiran-Chandiran). Raja does his part to add the elephant trumpet and some other wild sounds in the interludes to bring the forest ambience. However, there're also delectable string portions in the first interlude that one can enjoy.
This solo song has SPB in his youthful, thuLLal elements and must have matched the fast-paced Rajini very well. In addition, it has a few catchy phrases in the flow of the tune too, to make the youngsters happy like "ஏண்டி சிவந்தது பூவிழி" :-)
I remember this song having decent air-time and also bus-time during my school days, though not as frequently as the other two (appanE appanE & nadhiyOram). Still, it was a song tailor-made for SPB and reminds one of early days of SPB!
App anna
Thanks for reminding me the song, I have totally forgotten it as I have watched it long time ago :)

#20 ஹே மஸ்தானா
(அழகே உன்னை ஆராதிக்கிறேன், 1979 )
While the VJ solo "nAnE nAnA" is the biggest hit from IR-Sridhar combo's second movie (and perhaps well-known to everyone who visits our hub), the three songs by SPB weren't much behind when the musical arrived and created a sensation in TN. Picking relatively less popular actors (Vijayakumar / Jaiganesh and some youngsters) wasn't unusual for Sridhar who intro'd / popularised some famous ones in TF. What was unusual about this movie was the MGR heroine (Latha).
The songs were a rage everywhere - tea stalls, radio, functions, buses - wherever one goes he'll be treated with 'nAnE nAnA' or the short-sweet 'azhagE unnai ArAdhanai seigiREn' or the SPB numbers. Interestingly, this was the time period when tea stalls were migrating from HMV players to cassette players, in my observation. Well, some of them had fancy amplifiers & huge box speakers too :lol2:
I have written before in some thread about the 'minor Ilayaraja maNamigu coffee bar' in the Virudhunagar bazaar. Every evening during summer hols, during our walk from "Muthuraman patti" to "Vellaichamy nAdAr library" near bus stand, we'll stop by this stall in the bazaar - their main products (tea / coffee) were not the main attraction but the huge speakers were and ofcourse the IR songs! That was the year of the original "Oram pO" that got blasted out from those speakers. I remember hearing the AUA songs in that shop as well.
By that time, my cousin had the fancy Panasonic 2-in-1 :-) There were two portable models by Panasonic that were so much sought after those days (available not on regular radio shops but Burma bazaar kind of places only). One simple cassette player with no radio for around Rs 900 and this 2-in-1 mono (that had a small tweeter in the corner of the woofer). This had a large play button and a red color record button in the middle of that. (For recording, you press both). This "system" costed a huge price of Rs 2000. Just FYI, even in 1986, 2000 was a big amount (my first monthly salary was that and it was the 3rd highest in the campus interview, 2700 being top-most).
So, one can understand how much "valuable" that cassette player was in 1979 / 80 :-) Since recording centers haven't started flourishing yet, most songs we had were the ones "recorded" from radio broadcasts! AUA songs were here and there in many cassettes and always sought after.
'hEy mastAnA' was one of the most sought after by us as it was really hip! IR followed up the prior Sridhar movie's 'kiNNaththil thEn vadiththu' in this song by giving a similar middle eastern feel. SPB / PJ / VJ / Jency - one rare combo - sang this song.
One in the long list of IR innovations and SPB adds so much value by his youthful singing!
Interesting reminiscence of the tape recorders, app. Were the 8 tracks sold, in transition from LPs to cassettes? You know what I mean,

My cousin had a 8-track player, and bunch of those tapes, but never Tamizh songs.
Hi, I think you are referring to a song titled "Oru devathai vanthathu, Mana chirai koondai tiranthu sendrathu'' from Naan Solvathey Sattam. The album consists songs sung by SPB,Asha Bhonsle, KSC, and IR. Athikaalai Neram is from the same album,,
