Hi! We've made a major addition to newtfmpage, and that is a big song bank. Dhool features thousands of songs for your listening pleasure. This site is a part of the newtfmpage.com - swara.com group. Together with newtfmpage, we wish to make this the best place to listen to tamil film songs online and know about tamil film music. Our collection includes old, new, famous, rare and unheard of songs. We are still fine tuning and fixing the database errors, so please bear with us. We value your feedback, and this will help us build the site better. Please post your comments below or mail to comments@newtfmpage.com.
This work was done by us (bb and RR) with MS and swara.com ravi.

bb - that is second in the list I gave above.
haris - yes. One carnatic song in this raga which KJY has literally blasted out is "shree gaNanaadham bajaamyaham"

A very nice discussion thread indeed! I really wish to list my most favourite senti songs, but think that some may have already been listed. So, I'll limit to songs that have not been mentioned, and appealed to me.
It's amazing to see that ppl didn't consider T.Rajendar at all!! ( Disclaimer: I'm no blind supporter of TR!! :-) )
1. One of his masterpieces is 'Idhu kuzhandhai paadum' from Oruthalai Raagam. The speciality of the song is, every line of the song is about something impossible. I'm yet to hear another such a song that is rich in language at the same time expressing the character's mood. Of course, none other than SPB could have rendered this song so nicely.
Idhu kuzhandhai paadum thaalaattu
Idhu iravu nera boopaalam
Idhu merkil thondrum udhayam
Idhu nadhiyilladha Odam!
Verum kaatril uli kondu.. silaiyondrai vadikkiren
Verum naaril karam kondu.. poomaalai thodukkiren
Vidinthuvitta pozhudhil kooda.. vinmeenai paarkiren
Uravuraadha pennai enni.. ulagai naan verukkiren!
(Idhu..)
Nadai marandha kaalgal thannin.. thadayaththai paarkiren
Vadam izhandha theradhu ondrai.. naaLthorum izhukkiren
Siragizhandha paravai ondrai.. vaanathil paarkiren
Viruppamillaa pennai enni.. Naalthorum vaazhgiren!
...
Touchy ain't it?!

nTv: TR was a great lyricist.. IMO, but he too got commercialised and lost his identity as a lyricst later on.
btw, I was told that 'kuzhandhai paadum thaalaattu' is set in 'edhir maRai aNi'!
there is one more stanza, which u havent quoted:
'ulamaRindha pin dhaanO
avaLai naan veRuththadhu?
uRavuruvaaL ena dhaanO
manadhai naan koduththadhu?
uyir izandha karuvai koNdu
kavidhai naan vadippadhu
uyir izandha karuvai koNdu
kavidhai naan vadippadhu
oru thalaiyaai kaadhalilE
eththanai naaL vaazavadhu?'
kaadhal thOlvi has been expressed beeautifully! Soulful lyrics!
TR lyrics were really great in 'oru thalai raagam' and some songs were great in 'uyiruLLavarai usha' and 'en thangai kalyaNai' had only commercial stuff!

TR was certainly a great lyricist there is one casual line which has stunned me
"thaNNeeril meenazhuthaal kaNNeerai yaar aRivaar"

great song, bb! ('b'esh 'b'esh!!)
All songs were great in the film. The radio initially used to announce the MDs as T Rajendar and AA Raj. Mysteriously, AA Raj's name was dropped later!! (AA Raj later did 'Thaniyatha Dhaagam (Poove nee yaar solli-MV-SJ is a superb song)and 'Udhayamakirathu'.
OTR was one of those few films which did not have any song by a female playback singer. Idhayam was another one. I think 'Kathal Desam' too is another such film, except for some harmony bits.
The singers in OTR were TMS (Naan oru rasi illa raja, En kathai mudiyum neramithu),SPB (Ithu kuzhanthai paadum, Vaasamilla malarithu), JC (Kadavul vaazhum kovililey), MV (Kokkara kozhi) and Jolly Abraham (Manmathan ratchikkanum).

btw,
one more great song that would still bear the torch for TR is "salangai ittaL oru maadhu sangeedham nee paadu" FROM mythili aennai kaadhali. Beautifully song by none other thaan SPB.
btw, what is the raaga of this song?

Balaji,
This is a very good song... I really love this song. One more song that come to my mind hearing this one is
Kaalangalil aval vasantham
Kalaigalile aval oviyum....
from yesteryears.

BB:That was indeed a nice song by TR. If you notice some of the songs in that movie, they are all talking about such impossibilities, reflecting what was conveyed in kuzhandhai paadum thallattu:
1. vaasamilla malarithu vasanthaththai theduthu
2. noolum illai vaanum illai

'naanoru raasi illaa raajaa'.
TMS refused to sing this song initially, because of the lyrics. finally agreed to sing upon persuation by tr.

bb... really a good song by TR.. 'Kuzhandhai paadum thalattu' and 'Vaasamilla malaridhu' are two great nos. by TR.. particularly the initial guitar piece and the drums in 'vaasamilla malar idhu' would be like a bruce springsteen's 'born in the usa' interlude....:))...
