Pick #165
http://tfmpage.com/stream/songs/kanni_rs.rm
Song: kaNNi thendral veesum
Film: Raman Sriraman
Singers : PSuseela, SPB
Lyrics: vairamuthu
Music: Sivaji Raja
Sivaji Raja made a good debut in 'kaatrukenne veli'. 'Rekha rekha', 'chinna chinna megam' are some of the best melodies from mid-80s. Unfortunately he(or they?) did not work in many films.
'Raman sriraman','chithirame chithirame' are the others with him as the MD.
RS had vijayakanth(dual role) and Jyothi. I did watch this film long long ago on DD and remember it was an above average film. Todays pick is the only song i remember. IT was a popular one during the films release. There was one more heroine in RS and i remember it as vanitha. I could be wrong though.
Ramki: I think, it is Vanitha. VK in a dual role (brothers(?) one of them good and the other bad). The good one gets blamed for the wrong the bad one did and gets sorted out in the end.
ramki, RC:
idhu enna vambaa pOchu - I was merely saying the same thing to alias.
Basically, there is no need to change the title of this thread to "Rare song of the week",as alias was suggesting. This was my take.
Hope you understand - I said "..pick of the week is HARDLY misleading"
Ramki,
There was one movie [dubbing] came in early 90's. It's vaa vaa vaanampaadi... by KJY, ??.
Thanks RC
rajdes thank you
FM is 'vaa vaa vaanambadi' the movie title or the song title?
Pick #166

Song: veLLai nirathoru pachai
Film: ennai vittu pogaadhe
Singer : Sjanaki
Lyrics:Gangai Amaran?
Music: iLaiyaRaja
Ramarajan was at his peak in mid to late 80s and so was iLaiyaraja. Their combination has given us some unbelievable songs. 'Ennai vittu pogaadhe' is a flop movie with RR and sabita anand, but the songs were hit.
The mano-chitra duet 'vaalattum oorkuruvi' and IR solo 'unna pole aatha' were chartbusters.
Unlike its peers, todays pick did not find any airtime. Its a soulful solo by SJ with mesmerising interludes. The short gap after the charanam followed by sounds of goats is always a nice surprise to me. When you keep thinking there is only one saranam IRcontinues the song after a short gap. The following flute interlude is also my favorite.
No doubt "veLLai nirathoru" has a beautiful tune set to MishraShivaRanjini scale. But the same rythm pattern makes it boring.
"Omkari" song from Ashokan could not sustain my interest for more than 2 paragraphs despite the interesting rythms[ pancha vaadhyangal is being used here], SPB's awesome singing. Rehman has not bothered about the tune. The tune in the 2nd para is a straight lift from some old folk songs.
