  Hi All
  Few people like Raghu might know that although I love SPB but i like Rafi more. But I am not writing about that. Over the last weekend I was lucky to be in chennai and attend ARRs concert. Man it was a good show with some bad management. Also I didnot like the song selection. Lets leave that to rest.
  Many singers performed there but there was one man who stood miles ahead of others and that was SPB. His voice and song rendering was so good that you could hardly feel the difference between live performance and recording. While other good singers like hariharan, karthik, mano, srinivas were not as good when they sounded live but SPB was majestic. Just too good. I guess he was the only singer who sounded as good as recorded in the concert. Others who came close where Shankar Mahadevan and Unnikrishnan. People like Hariharan was complete mess.
  Man this guy is so god at his age that he can sing for another few decades. Awesome. Leaves no doubt that he is the best of the current lot and ahead by miles.

  i have attended many spb shows last year in chennai. it is correct that the recorded voice and live version of spb shows are quite the same.
  an amazing personality with an amazing voice.

  Of course, I went SPB/KJY?KSC show in London. 2001, this man is amazing, he sounds the same as he is off Stage (recording theater), you would not believe the thunderous applaude he gets from the crowd, every time he enters the stages, mind, you this show was mainly for mallu, but even the KJY ruled kerala, SPB is too good for every singers including the great KJY :)

  Like we asked you before, please mention some of SPB songs and Rafi songs, then compare them, of late you have always been talking about arfi's songs, how can you say rafi is the greatest, when you have not even mentioned one song of SPB?
  
  please reply.

  Prabhu,
  
  Can you give some details about the movie?
  
  
• From: Prabhu (@ 202.54.40.210) on: Mon Mar 17 06:16:19 EST 2003
  
  Raghu, it featured Mohan and actress was Nalini I think. A melodious song goes "____azhagu, ____azhagu". MD was Sankar-Ganesh. I didnt get response after querying in song stats thread. I thought You might pull the answer from ur memory within seconds(biggest SPB fan :))

  guys, i will clarify prabhu's doubt. it goes like this, "Amman koyil therazhagu, aayriathil oarazhagu, naanamulla pennazhagu, naan virumbum kannazhagu, ennudaya aaa...karpanayil vandhu nirkum vanna mayil" this is pallavi. hope i am right. btw, i introduce myself as ashok with email id. ashokbalsub@yahoo.com where balsub represents none other than this great guy SPB.. bye for now.

  His voice in O podu was so husky and it did not suit Vikram at all. I think he should concentrate more on devotional kind of music and retain his regards in the music world

  KS,
  Have you listened to 'vazhga vazhga' song from kadhal virus?? Listen to it first... So fresh and the way he has sung that song... wow!..extra-ordinary. He just proved to people like you that he is still the BEST singer of all. His voice will suit any hero... btw, SPB's version of O podu is not in the movie and it's only on the CD but that's the version which became a big hit in India. Btw, you though Vikram is a young hero?? He is in his 40's....

  Well said, at 56+ SPB's voice is as youthful as ever, have u heard his song in Udhaya, along with another gem,Janaki amma, a not so good tune of ARR is made a wondeful one by SPB + SJ!.
  
  
  Prabhu,
  
  very sad indeed, they had the aussies restricted to 212, which was an ordinary total to chase, but the lions failed, perhaps if Sanath won the toss & elected to bat, they probably would have won!.

  Raghu,
  >>a not so good tune of ARR is made a wondeful one by SPB + SJ!.<<
  the SPB part is enjoyable alrite....but Janaki IMHO is horrible in that song....thats one of the reasons i don like tat song.....her voice is too keech-mooch(!) and she sings as though shes sleepin.....my mother went to the extent of asking "enna paattu da ithu.....azhagu vadiya!" :) .... i feel SJ shud stop singing and not hurt her legacy
  
  
• From: Raghu (@ 217.158.120.226) on: Thu Mar 20 10:06:43 EST 2003
  
  thambhi C~P,
  
  SJ is nearly 70, she is a granny :)), still her voice is good, but I have to agree, she is a bit shaky in that song, she should stop singing to keep her legacy :)
