Suresh,
Thanx for uploading that song. In my request list to Rex I had said that the song was overlooked and that's what has happened here exactly;)) 'thalaatudhe vaanam' from the same film was a great number, but I'm sure not many people would have had a chance to hear this song unless they were like me, hanging around with a transistor all the time when i was a kid;))
Rex,
I hope u saw the request list which I posted on this forum a couple of pages back. 'Manidha manidha' from kann sivandhall mann sivakkum is another great number waiting to be uploaded by someone here;)) I hope u are the person whowould do it.

Suresh, thanks for that amazing song. I used to hear in the nights on vividh bharathi night adtime the songs of Kadal Meegal. Great memories of all the LR Narayanan 10 minute ads. Endrendrum Aaanandhame is one of the most rare melodies and that too for a disco song. MV was the perfect voice for this song.
Shibu, your uploads are really covering the gamut of IR's great songs and not so great songs and all that have gone unnoticed. Looking for more.
Thanks guys

Thanks for your
compliments. In fact good words such as these (as well as
constructive criticism) would help me to serve the Raaja fans
community in a better way, because this is again a source of
encouragement that I derive out of my page. Please do continue to
browse my page for fantastic additions planned for the future.

VIJAY:
Sorry for not
responding to your earlier query. I apologize. I was checking my
cassette collection.......So I could not respond to your query
earlier. In fact, I should say that ENDRENDRUM AANANTHAME from
KADAL MEENGAL, was my all-time favorite too.. It is not like I
had "overlooked" the song during my uploads. I am just
not having it. I am not sure how I missed this song, while
recording. Also I am sorry to say that I am not having MANITHA
MANITHA song. But if one of the fans of this forum can send me
the song, I can upload it for you as a HIGH QUALITY song, much
the same way as the MULLUM MALARUM song and other rare old songs
at my site sound........

Rex,
When I said 'Overlooked', I actually meant Suresh and not u since he had been having this song all the time and yet did'nt know about the song;)) I know very well that u have been busy and u have also been doing some great uploads recently. I had never even heard of an album like 'kannukoru vannakili' until I saw it in your site. Continue your uploads.
Iam sorry, but I did'nt mean to say that u did not respond to my requests. The fact is that u have responded in the past and that's why I keep coming to your site everyday;))

Rex/Suresh,
'Endrendum Aanathame' is not a classic in my opinion, but it is definitely an unconventional song. I was surprised as to how IR composed this song for a disco type situation. I think the raaga is very close to maaya maalava gowlai/sarasaangi. 'Meenamma Meenamma ' from rajaadhi raaja is set in the same raaga. It was very different and when I was a kid somehow this tune caught on to me and I have remembered it all this while. Iam listening to it after perhaps 8-10 years.

It is OK man....You need not even clarify. In fact I am very happy and wish to take this moment to appreciate you whole-heartedly because this is exactly what I mean by feedback, constructive criticism, etc . For a long time this thread was sleeping and was having discussions which were wishy-washy. Now since the forum is up with action, you could see some blockbusters coming out from every quarter(webmaster). I always respect your tastes and in fact I was mentioning to Suresh today that just how you pulled out, Ponmaane Theduthe song from me and really swung me into action to put that song, likewise you have done Suresh to put this song too. So you are the kind of persistent fan that any webmaster would love to have!! Personally, I take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful request you had posed to Suresh and to Suresh as well for acceding to that request immediately.

Rex,Vijay, RajaFan
Thanks for your feedback, it is really mesmerising song, the violin pieces through out the song creates great feeling.If you closely watch towards the end of the second interlude there is a touching pathos kind of music, Raja is simply great.

Rex,
U are welcome. 'Raaman Andalum' another really rare number and thanx for uploading the same. I think there was a controversy surrounding this song in that Padma subramaniam, the famous dancer,
had accused IR of copying the tune of this song though I don't know how far it is true. Nevertheless I like this song.

Please clarify more on that 'Raaman Aandalum song controversy if u have more details. Thanks

Rex,
I think I read about that controversy in one of Srirangam Lakshminarayan's articles. I think the links to the articles is given in the front page of this site. I'll found out in which articles exactly did he mention this.
I remembered one more thing. The opening piece of this song is said to be composed in a rare raaga called 'andolika'.
