If you've noticed, all the duets so far in 1981 have been with SJ :-)
From my compilation of SPB-IR of 1981 (posted and to be posted), it looks like SPS was the only other SPB-duetter in that year.

Grouch, I hear you. "Jumthala jumthala jumthalakka Souppukku kozhi vandhdhakkA."
The only thing that could have been worse is Mano singing it. Risk aayirukkum :lol:
Santhadi saakkula mano-attack-a? Sari, thread owner-um udanthai, enna pannurathu. But seriously. Chicken soup? Vaalee-ya?
App, a string of brilliant picks there! I’m currently hooked to Solla solla….what orchestration, especially that saxophone in the 2nd interlude… pullarips o pullarips!
With you on KSP… one bloody killer of an album! Like you said, a heavily guitar/pop based album, but what the hell, the mannvasanai wasn’t sacrificed alright!
My first bite at this album was when I caught this movie on K TV, morning show, Engg exam study holidays! (the 9AM show, which I think is some kind of celebration of the pulpiest best that TF and TeF has produced!). I must admit, I actually enjoyed the film the first time and even helped myself for a repeat watch! (wasn’t aware then that it was Sujatha’s story). Kaadellaam pichipoovu, the title song, and the eerie BGM in the movie… riveting stuff!
I don’t know if its just my bias, but me thinks that this period of TFM was one definitive peak in the usage of the electric guitars and bass.. demonic resurrection! :smokesmirk:

I think I have seen the movie, but hardly remember a scene, will find out from Rajnifans.com and let you know :)Quote:

Sweet! That's a single word description of this song :-)
Raja has always been partial towards Panju -IMO- due to the gratitude factor. He definitely seem to work extra hard, add extra sweet / spice to his songs when he is called by PA, right from the early ones till PA's last venture. Well, the Cheran one done by PA's son was an inexplicable exception. (Even that had an ok 'ulagilE azhagi nee thAn').
Otherwise, those were rasagullAs all the way. 'oru poovanaththula' is a KC Das variety, bringing in all the strong instruments of IR in honey-mode. The prelude and interludes are among Raja's sweetest. Especially the mangaLa vAththiyam (Started to appreciate it a lot more after reading Suka's article in solvanam- ever grateful to Sureshji for that wonderful link). Add to that a nice folksy pallavi and a relaxing saraNam melody!
It came during my +2 with radio thEn pAichchifying to ears. Classmates used to talk about the bus used in the movie etc (and also the vadakku iRakkumathi by BR who did odd mouth kOnals for 'vAn mEghangaLE' as a puthiya vArppu - was it BR who started this north indies thingy?)
SPB thoroughly "tasting" the song, makes one think he is in the middle of a poovanam (or, enjoying what that implied :wink:). Most times the song places one inside a garden but on few occasions could seed "maRRa" thoughts in mind.
