App, as usual, super posts! Abhishega nerathil is semma kutthu, among the best of SPB in this genre. Naughtiness personified!
Some very nice bass work in this song as well, perhaps one of the differentiating factors compared to other folk songs of that time.

Talking about defunct magazines, any memories/gyan on 'Manikodi', literary magazine from the 30s?
(New thread on this in the Thamizh literature section)
End-dig
Excellent song, I almost sing this song daily! such a romantic song! Didn't know it was from moodupani. Have not seen the film , kind of want to watch it for IR+SPB+BM , but the sight of pratap may freak me out :shaking:Quote:

Just saw the video of the song 'Geetham Sangeetham nee thaanE en kadhal' , an utter spoiler of the song, who ever the hero was doing comical dance movements in the song :rotfl:
#25 என்னோடு பாடுங்கள் நல்வாழ்த்து பாடல்கள்
(நான் வாழ வைப்பேன், 1979 )
Another SPB-Sivaji number from the same year. For the movie that also had KJY's 'AgAyam mElE' for Rajinikanth. A sweet lead guitar / trumpet delight (almost MSV-ish) where Balu enhances a simple-looking tune with his effortless singing. (The ending "wish you many more..." part is somewhat irritating but overall a nice melodious song).
This song, IMO, was a radio-only hit unlike the 'AgAyam mElE' number which was a sensation everywhere. The general teakkadai talk was that Rajini was the bigger attraction for the movie and not Sivaji. (My cousin even told that a big group will enter the theater just in time for the Rajini scenes and leave after his best one - possibly an exaggeration as he was getting highly RK biased by this time, but underlined the contribution of Rajinikanth for the success of the movie that was a remake from Hindi). Also, by the expectations / standards we boys set for SPB & KJY, those were opposite offerings.
SPB, the thuLLal / energetic / boyish singer giving us this softie while KJY, the soft / slow / pathos kind of singer (chosen by MGR to suit his then-unclear-voice) belting out that 'adi nAn thAn Michael, adi nee thAn my girl' :shock: Anyways, it was another thiruviLaiyAdal of IR (or may be one of Sivaji).

Great write-up
there was rumor that this song "Ennodu Paadungal" was recorded using TMS voice..IR dubbed the song later SPB. Does any old Hubber remember this? Was it Manisekaran or someone else who wrote about this..
Unless I am totally imagining this
nice songs, app_eng.

Mr. Manisekaran: Reg. the TMS-IR tiff, I recall
that the song "Ellorum Paadungal" sung by SPB in Naan Vaazha Veippen was apparently originally sung by TMS and recorded. TMS in fact played both version in front of an audience (in Sri Lanka?) and asked them to decide which one was better. This appeared I think in Kumudam. IR responded saying that he had no role in it and it was the decision of the producers. At that IR recalled earlier problems with TMS. Two songs he mentioned were "Annakiliye" and "Andapuratthil".
