RR, Gangai recently revealed that oru kaadhal enbadhu was done by IR. I sort of think that the tune might be IR's and Gangai did the orch, recording, arrangement etc. Also, unnai edhirpaarthen is Vanaja Girija vonly

Plum,

No...I am sure "oru Kathal enbathu.." should be full and full by IR only...no way GA can come up with such a mind blowing song - particularly the orchestration..

'Also, unnai edhirpaarthen is Vanaja Girija vonly' - I thot this had KR type of orchestration ..

True guys.. someone posted this link on this forum few months ago.. Oru kadhal enbadhu is by Raja.

Hear this from GA's words..

Ok, saw the ad. He says idhula visheshamana baagam rasigargal selection so presumably other songs will also be there - although that will be like standard stuff probably. As I don't believe in making lists, I just continue to hope that a good mix is achieved. Madai thiRandhu is a good pick. Maybe it could start with "en gaanam endru arangerum", move on to "madai thiRandhu", and conclude with "paattukku naan paadu patten...". That would encompass a theme and pretty interesting songs, all. I have always wanted IR to sing madai thiRandhu. ApdiyE uLLE irundhu peerikittu varumnu ninaikkarEn...

idhukku dhaan namma hub la oru mEnEger vEnumgardhu.
Plum, appidye unga theme-a elaborate pannunga, idea takkara keedhu!

Some more 'paattu/question' songs (though it doesn't really fit into your theme, oru sub-theme aa vechchukkalaam!)
enna paattu paada, enna thaalam pOda
ennai paada solladhE, naan kanda padi paadippuduvEn
enna paaduvadhu, paattellaam namakku paada theriyaadhu
naan paadum mouna raagam kEtkavillaya

That will make it one-dimensional and boring KV. One dimensional is ok but one-D based on lyrics is unforgiveable in a show for a Music Director. I thought these 3 were pretty interesting songs themselves and then spun a theme around it. We shouldn't spin a theme and try to fit songs - that will sort of narrow down the narrative...
