This thread is to bring to people's notice good non-IR songs that came out in the "golden period" of IR, when his brilliance pretty much overshadowed everything else. (Ramki ippa thiruppthiyA? :-)

Eventhough you almost always got to hear new releases of just IR during this period, whenever a new TR movie was released, their songs used to be the rage for a few weeks. I felt pretty irritated then, because I wanted the world to go back to being sane and listen to IR alone. :-).

vijay: megame megame is by IR.
From: Ravi (@ hope.cs.umass.edu) on: Wed Sep 23 17:19:27 EDT 1998

balaji: vijay is right. It is by SG... actually it is a blatant copy of a ghazal. (You should wish it is not by IR. :)

Paalavanachoalai is definitely S-G, I have seen the movie several times. Just because it hails from IR's prime they have lumped it with his other stuff.

My non-IR faves from 70s and 80s:
-aavani malarae aippasi mazhaiyae
-niththam niththam en kannodu
-ponguthae punnagai pulli itta kalai maanai
-maanikka maamani maalaiyil
-unnai naan paarthathu
-maangaattu mayilae nil nil nil
-kolusay kolusay
