[Sanjeevi]

Hi IR fans,

Here discuss about your fav. song(s) came in and after year 2000 from Ilaiyaraja.

My pick is the latest "Konjam Thira" from Oru Naal Oru Kanavu.

[nilavupriyan]

1)unna vida-viumaandi(2003)

2)ilangaathu veesudhe-pithamagan(2003)

3)poo poothadhu-mumbai express(2005)

4)adadaa-pidhamagan(2003)

5)rokkam irukkura makkal-kasi(2001)

6)un kuthama-azhaki(2001)

7)kuyilukku koo koo-friends(2001)

Poo poothathu is a great song. But kamal fails to become a super hit. He did mistake with MX audio release. Virumandi was a great hit before movie release. But MX audio is not a hit even after film release.

Audio cassete/cd distribution of MX was a great insult. He started a audio company to release the MX cassete. But in my native place Srivilliputtur and in Rajapalayam, I could not get the audio cassete/cd even after film release. He had sold 1.75 lakhs cassete to VCAN, a MLM company. I think, VCAN did a agreement with Kamal in which some sentence may be like "Audio cassete/cd do not sell for some periods". This is a greate mistake. Thus, film songs to be a super hit is not even a small hit. I think, this may be a reason MX film's below average business.

I just realized how little of IR's recent film music I've been listening. Still stuck on old songs and his non-film albums.

some recent songs I like (other than those already mentioned):
(in no particular order)
Piraye - pithamagan
Saranam Bhava - Pithamagan
Aadum Padham Thozha - Ponmegalai
Uppu title theme (was uppu after 2000?)
Kaatril varum geethame - Oru naal oru kanavu
Kaattu vazhi kaalnadaiya - Adhu oru kanaa kaalam

After 2000...

'Ilangaaththu Veesudhey...' Pithamagan
'Unna vida......' Virumaandi
'Sandiyare...sandiyare,.... Virumaandi
'Nirpathuve Nadapathuvey'.... Bharathi

[MADDY]

Ilangaaththu Veesudhu-Pithamagan
solla marandha kathai - solla marandha kathai

these 2 songs reminded me of old IR with very crisp tunes......and it was a welcome relief from manmadha rasa and althotta bhubathi songs of that time......

[yvsmani]

solla marantha kathai songs were amazing
