Have you ever wonndered why there are so many one-timers in TFM? I have. :-))
It's amazing why some of the good ones are not sought after. I hope to discuss some of these splendid one-timers, both old and new, and maybe examine why they were neglected.

Another MD got introduced in "Solai kuyil" by Karthik, named Murari. Some of the good songs from the same are:
1) Solai kuyil nenjukulle
2) malaiyora machane
3) Kottunga ketti melam.

Vijay is correct, 'kadhalenum Koil' is by Kovai Murali..(or some MURALI)
Dr Kalyan sang a song in "MooduPani' and not in Moondram Pirai.

MS,
Right. Unni Menon was apparently rechristened as Vijay by IR for Oru Kaithiyin Diary (Source: latest Vikatan). Thanks
So, he's not a one-film wonder.
As for Dr. KalyaN, I remember arguing with a friend back in college when he said that the great MooduPani song, 'En Iniya POn NilAve' is by Dr. Kalyan when I insisted it was Yesudas.
Can someone clarify please?

what about the song from Kushi'katti pudi katti pudi da' It was sung by Vasu....

on: Sat Jul 8 06:05:12 EDT 2000
oh, i didn't know Vasu is back with another song. can't blame me, though: i consciously try and avoid listening to music from films like Kushi.
i was browsing thru several age-old records at a shop near mount road today. fellow's got some extremely rare ones. i spotted one which said Music by Banumathi Ramakrishna. does she qualify as a OTW in music direction?
i came across several other names which have to be OTW, because i can't even recollect them:-)))

Bhanumathi used to be called an 'AstAvadhAni', the one who mastered many varied skills (8, to be precise). She composed music for quite a few films. Notable among them is a film with an all-children cast called 'Bhakta Dhruva Markandeya', starring the then child artists Shobhana and Rohini. She wrote the script, edited, composed music, sang, produced and directed the film.
I believe she composed music for a few Telugu films as well.
1. IR used a Hindustani singer for the song 'Unnai Naan ARiven', singing an alaap in raga KeeravaNi. Who's this ustaad?
2. I think Seergazhi Siva Chidambaram first sang for Maragatha Mani a.k.a. KeeravaNi, a.k.a. M.M. Kreem(what a name for the Hindi audience?) for the film 'Azhagan'. The song is 'Kozhi Koovum NEram Aachu'. Later he sang for ARR in Indira ('Odakkara Maarimuthu'). Has he sung any other songs? (I guess we are not making mythologicals any more, that require a gaNeer Sirgazhi-type song).
3. Director Bharati Raja was M. Vasudevan's co-singer in the pathos-filled song, 'Kaadu Pottakkaadu' (film: Karuthamma). Has he sung in 'KallukkuL Eeram' as well?
4. Who sang 'Edhukku PoNdatti, ennachuthi Vappatti' for ARR (film: Kizhakku Cheemayile)
5. How many songs has A.P. Komala sung? I remember her 'Yesunaathar Pesinar'.
6. Where has Krishna Chander disappeared?

I think Bharathi Raja spoke some words in "Pudhiya Vaarpugal". He was just one of them. Ga is another one that I know. The song (may be callled dialogue) is "Thiruviyaa...".

How many films has Neeraja sung for? There was 'VeeNayadi Nee Enakku' from '7-vadhu Manithan' and another IR film starring Sivakumar & Sumitra (Is it Chittukkuruvi?) In the film, Sumitra is a 'parisal' girl in a village and Siva Kumar is a fugitive.

What abt various MDs who scored music for just one film?
Earlier I had mentioned about Murari (Solai kuyil - Karthik starrer)
Another one, Jeyanth - Thulli thirintha kaalam which contained songs as Mannil intha vanna kolam pudhu kavithai thaana & Seval koovum saththam kettu vaanam vaikkum vatta pottu. I don't know how many DFers have listened to those songs.

yvs mani,
Jayanth also scored music for "PoovEli" Dir. Selva & Producer : K Balachandar. He has been praised by KB as "Thamizh Thirai isai-in nambikkai natchathiram".
No chance to see him after that movie.
I got a news that Jayanth is now busy in scoring jingles (which was his earlier reputation).

- From: MS (@ 129.252.22.9)
on: Wed Jul 12 14:33:39 EDT 2000
IRfan - that song was hit more to due to the explicit attributes of Vijayshaanthi and the situation for which it was picturized (shaanthi muhurtham). Superstar's contribution was just overlooked (thankfully) :-)

on: Thu Jul 13 01:13:37 EDT 2000
Ya, I am sorry. I got confused between jayanth & bharatwaj. Both were new and less known. Ofcourse, now Bharatwaj is well known for his breathless song Amarkalam (I think now, I am correct). Amarkalam paNNeettAr. Jayanth, sorry to say, He is an OTW. Good MD, bit unlucky.
One more guy is Agosh, ("Harichandra",Karthik) Do newtfmpage MD database or Gallery has Agosh photo ? I have not seen this guy (hope you too!) But got to listen his sweet melody "Nadodi paattu pada" (and 2 more hit songs in same movie. Well done.

MS,
It was hit because of situation, vijayashanthi, rajni :-), last but not least JANAKI's VOICE. Summa kalakeettAnga. Rajni pola kural vachchundu pAduna, SJin kural Amirtham thaan. That song was a hit because of SJ & IR only.

Agosh is not a single person but an acronymn fo 3 people out of which Gopal Sharma is one person. I wonder whether they are bound by some sort of a contract with KT.Kunjumon, cause they tuned for his son's launch movie and the movie is yet to be released.

Ramki,
I saw Neeraja's name in the credits of the film 'Chittukuruvi'. There was another new female singer's name too. I guess the song is a children's version of 'Adadada MAmarakkiLiye'. It comes early in the film where the young Sumitra and Shivakumar are playing in the village.
