#33 எங்கெங்கோ செல்லும் என் எண்ணங்கள்
இங்கே தான் கண்டேன் பொன் வண்ணங்கள்
(பட்டாக்கத்தி பைரவன், 1979 )

One of the all-time-popular great songs from the IR-SPB-SJ combo. This morning I saw that it's again on youtube The director should be given "top among killers of great IR songs on screen" award! (Ofcourse, Sivaji has to share part of the credit).

A song way ahead of its time in orchestration and sounds (although the stereo distribution was improper IMO as already mentioned in the dEvadhai post).

If anyone who was a TN teen in 1979 who listened to this song and still not become a fanatic of IR-SPB-SJ combo, he / she is a rare breed, IMO.

When engengO was originally written about in the SOTD thread of tfmpage (and now featured in dhool.com), there were some hilarious comments Please don't miss these...

Samples :

Jagapathi Art Pictures' Pattakkathi Bhairavan finds place effortlessly among Sivaji's worst films ever. Bizzare wigs, ballooned belly, bell-bottoms, bright coats of incredible hues--these were Sivaji's bedfellows, and he was at his cacophonous loudest

I think this film was produced by Rajendra Prasad (Telugu).In one of RP s earlier production "engaL thanga Raaja" Sivaji played the character "Pattakathi Bhairavan".So RP must have thought it apt to name this misadventure II "PB".

Sivaji s "Kuppai thotti" dialogue was famous and some review rightly remarked how nice it would be to dump the movie in the same "Kuppai Thotti".

On the song,well,vijay i am now seriously considering....afterall Mohan/Murali have now sivaji s company.Saravanan I strongly object to your comments on Sivaji.Only Sivaji fanatics have the right to comment Sivaji s coat,wigs etc .Drawing an extraordinary comparison.....only bharathi can call Kannan en sevagan not Periyar or even ordinary bhakthargaL.

OISG, Believe it or not I was thinking about your "vizhalukku iraitha neer" comment yesterday night when I saw this song as SOTD. Have you considered Sudhakar yet?

Vijay, OISG--descending deeper--what about Vijayan(Niram Maaratha Pookal), Chakravarthi (Thaippongal), Vasanth (Mella Pesungal), The two Shekhars (Nizhalgal), Pandiyan, Thyagarajan,--Poor IR!

I remember discussing this song with SL once ina nother thread about the loss of shruthi in TFM songs. At exactly 0:34 mins SPB's "pon vaNNaNgaL" is out of shruthi in this fabulous song. SL had earlier found that SJ had missed shruthi in this song.

I'd already commented on the film. Fault is not NT's alone. He's only actor for hire. Unfortunately, the songs are so awesome, the name Pattakatti Bairavan will not disappear anytime soon.

Thanks App for posting the archives. Nice to read their thoughts. It's surprising to hear SPB singing out of sruthi, but I hear off-key when he sings 'Pon' in 'Pon Vannangal', but it sounds so due to some recording error, it sounds little low in volume during that word. But it's amazing that they find these nuances.
