A_E, thodarattum ungal thondu… please accept this saalvai and thundu :)
Param, that's from Aayiram Nilave Vaa, by IR, 1983. Yeah, the eppidi eppidi is quite a nuisance in an otherwise fine song.

Oh antha padama ithu ! That too a Karthik film, (how did I miss it :oops: ) By the way Devathai ilam devi song from this film gives me the creeps :shaking:Quote:

I probably heard it a few times on kOlAmbi speaker those days but don't think it can be considered a hit. So, skipping it. (Surprising to see a song having such tags as IR / SPB / SJ / Rajini / 1980 being skip-worthy).
Divine22,
Thank you! Early 80's are IR's best phase in my personal opinion. That I was in +2 / college could be the main reason but the fact that those songs are sought after by much younger people (my nephews / nieces in TN, for e.g.) underlines their speciality...
#40 வாடாத ரோசாப்பூ நான் ஒன்னு பாத்தேன்
(கிராமத்து அத்தியாயம், 1980 )
The moment I saw the name of this movie in IR's 1980 discography, all four songs - each one very close to me - jumped to my mind instantly and started playing one after the other, even before I went to thiraippAdal!
Aththu mEttula & oothakkAththu are SJ sweeties (one with MV & the other with PJ), poovE idhu poojaikkAlamE is by BSS and this one with its "ammAdeeee" singing by SPB'll melt anyone!
The village tea stall - run by the son of my dad's colleage - was alternating between the HMV fiesta & the Rs 900 panasonic casstte player during this time. (i.e. if one was being retained by his 3 sisters on a day, the other ends up at the kadai). So, what songs he played depended upon what system was at the shop on a given day since he had only "mutually exclusive" songs on vinyls & cassettes. GA was on vinyl and all the four were so much loved by we boys.
Interestingly, he also had the other song 'pon mAnaththEdi nAnum poovOdu vandhEn' on vinyl and there were some who liked that better than this one ; but to me, that was just "cloned" from 'vAdAtha rOsAppoo' and I used to tell others that thambi got inspired by aNNan...to be fair to thambi, pon mAnaththEdi was a bigger hit on radio compared to vAdAtha rOsAppoo, though 'Aththu mEttula' was the most popular among all songs of that time period. Both pon mAnaththEdi & vAdAtha rOsAppoo start in somewhat similar manner which led me to disappointment on occasions when listening to radio.
Poor Rudraiyah, after the glorious avaL appadiththAn, he ventured into this GA which finished him. I've seen 'Athu mEttula' youtube sometime back:-(
SPB's emotional singing in this song can be compared to his effort for 'uchchi vagundheduththu'. Though it had some air time, could have become much bigger had it been in a different movie.
Absolutely love the tabla. A revisit from Vizhiyile Malarnthathu.Quote:

App, what was tea kada for you, we hear these gems through the kitchen where the rickety old radio accompanies mom with her chores. Ellame mono-sound-thAn enggalukku. Sometimes we overhear her discussing certain songs with dad/neighbouring aunty/passing by estate worker/etc. For example, she complained about SPB's voice in Paranthaalum, Vidamaatten (Guru), "Eppadi iruntha kural en ippadi irukku!" :lol:
More digression on kitchen conversation:
7 year old grouch: Amma, what does Kamban Eemanthaan means?
Grouch's mom: Those are bad words. Don't ask again .
