Kannadasan,Vaali and VM had always been the heroes of any discussion thats related to lyrics. Very often lyrics of other kavignars are assumed/mistaken to be written by these 3. This thread is an effort to come out with songs that were written by kavignars other than these 3

There have been lot of tamizh thiraipada kavignars(according to bones there are more than 100 of them)but none of them could acheive the position and pugazh as Kannadasan or Vaali or
VM. Does it mean that the others arent good kavignars??
I wouldnt say so. Many of them have given excellent songs that has become very popular among the masses and critics. But still they arent talked about much??What could be the reason??
I would like to know others opinion on this...
We can also do a listing on other kavignar songs ,which can really be a guide for our discussions.
To start with:
Pulamaipithan: Im not sure when was his entry to TFM, but he has penned a lot of good songs
Examples:
1)indha pachai kilikkoru sevvandhi poovil thottilai katti vaithen-needhikku thalaivanangu?
2)andhapurathil oru maharani-deepam
3)pattu vanna rosavam-kanni paruvathile
4)uchi vagudeduthu vichi poo vechakili-rosapppuravikkaikari
5)punjai undu nanjai undu-unnal mudiyum thambi
6)jaadhi malli poocharamae-azhagan
7)Sithirai nilavu selaiyil vandhadhu munnae-vandisolai chinnarasu
8)odi odi uzhaikkanum
9)thazhamboove vaasamveesu-kai kodukkum kai
PanjuArunachalam: Made a great debut with the kalangarai vilakkam song..'ponezhil poothadhu pudhu vaanil'but he became more popular after Annakili.
All the songs in Annakili
kuyile kuyile undhan geedhangal-kaadhal oviyam
kaadhal oviyam kaanumkaaviyam-alaigal oyvadhillai
kanmaniye kaadhal enbadhu-aarilirundhu aruvadhuvarai
kaadhal deepamondru nenjile-kalyana raman
malargalilaadum ilamai-kalyana raaman
megam karukkaiyile pulle dhegam kuliridhadi-vaidehi kathirundhaal
Muthulingam: i like the usage of tamil in his songs..examples
manjolai kili dhano-kizhakke pogum rayil
thendralilaadum koondhalil kanden-madhuraiyai meeta SP
chinnanjiru kiliye - mundhanai mudichu
vellai manam ullamachaan-chinna veedu
idhazhil kadhai ezhudhum-unnaal mudiyum thambi
solai poovil maalai thendral-vellai roja
Na.Kamarasan,MGVallaban,Kuruvikkarai Shanmugam,TRajendar,Aalangudi Somu,Marudhakasi,pattukottai kalyanasundaram,udumalai narayanakavi,ilancheliyan,arivumadhi,Mu Metha etc
are some of the other kavignars we can discuss..

Ramki, this could be a humongous thread because there are plenty out there. Maybe you need to refine it by giving a time frame like post-VM IR movies or some such thing. Why don't you list all the recent ones by Pulamaippiththan your favorite? Recent lyricists of the 80s and 90s that I can recall:
--muththulingam
--kuruvikkarambai shanmugam
--piraisoodan
--naa. kaamaraasan
--sidhambaram?(the guy who wrote "Earikkarai poongaatrae")
--pazhanai bhaarathi
--mu.mehtha
--gangai amaran
--IR

Udhaya i agree with you its going to be a might task but we can refrain from giving credits to wrong people in the future.rite?:))

Uyirum neeye udalum neeye-Pavithra

My favorite PuthumaiPithan song is:
pagai koNda uLLam thuyarathin illam
theerAtha kObam yArukku lAbam
from "ellOrum nallavarE" - MD V.Kumar.
My favorite lines from that song:
idahyathai thiRanthu niyAyathai pEsu
vazakkugaL mudivAgum
irukinRa pagaiyai vaLarthida-thAnE
vAthangaL thuNaiyAgum
and his philosophical quotes from uvamaigaL
is also simply great...like..
veetuku veLicham varuvathaRkAga
kooraiyai eripArO
vEdhanai thannai vilai thandhu yArum
vAngida ninaipArO
vaRRiya kuLathai paRavaigaL thEdi
varuvathu kidaiyAthu
vAzkai-il vaRumai varukindRa pOthu
uRavugaL kidaiyAthu
pAlai vanathil vithaip pathanAlE
payironRum viLaiyAthu
patta pinnAlE varugindRa njAnam
yArukkum udhavAthu
It is a GREAT SONG from PulamaipPithan

Some more songs of these kavignars:
Marudhakasi:
Maasila unmai kaadhalae-alibabavum 40 chorgalum
en arumai kaadhalikku - ellorum innaatu mannargal
sammadhama naan ungal kooda vara - nadodi mannan
10 maadham sumandhirindhu petraal-annaiyin aanai
ullam rendum ondru nam uruvam dhanae-??
chittu kuruvi chittu kuruvi sedhi theriyuma-town bus
ponnanana vazhvu mannaagi pomaa-town bus
I think his last song was 'aala parakkum kili aala
parthu pesum kili,vaalai vayasu kili,manam velutha pachai kili'(paalabishegam??)
Pattukottai Kalyanasundaram:
thoongadhae thambi thoongadhae-nadodi mannan

eh i love u i love u- unnai naan sandhithen
MGVallaban:
unnai kaanum neram nenjil-unnai naan sandhithen
odi vizhaiyadu oramaaga vizhaiyadu-uyire unakkaga
kaalai thendralil ethanai vannangal-mangai oru gangai
Mu.Metha:

Ramki:
I don't know if you want only people who are exclusively "kavignars", but RV Udhayakumar could be included as well. His lyrics for kizhakku vAsal, especially, were great. I think he writes lyrics for almost all his films.

pulamaip piththan was introduced by MGR in kudiyiruntha kOyil. His first debut was nAn yAr..nAn yAr..nEE yAr..nAlum therinthavar yAr yAr.. which is good song with good word-play. (Bones, do you recollect the full lyrics?)
Likewise, nA.kAmarAsan and muthulingam were also introduced by MGR. If I am correct, nA.kA's first song was pOy vAA nathi alaiyE.. from pallANdu vAzhga. Some more good songs of nA.kA are thEn..pOOvE..pOOvE..vA.. from anbuLLa rajinikAnth and viLakku vaikkum nEraththilE.. from munthAnai mudichchu.
Some more of Mu.mEthA:
thEnaruviyil nanaithidum malarO.. (AgAya gangai)
nAn uLLukkuLLa chakkaravarthy.. (some rajini film, music : IR)
Bones, thanks for pagai koNda uLLam news that its by PP.

Well donno about how good the lyrics are, but I certainly did like the kaalamellaam kaadhal vaazga song for its complete gaanaa-like content (I am from A.M.Jain college chennai, gaanaa'vukku pEr pOnadhunbaa!)
aNNaanagaru aaNdaalu
