I'm a new visitor to this website. I couldn't see anyone discussing about Vani Jayaram's songs.
Let me start this one.(It had been there previously pls. forgive me!)
"Ezhu swarangalukkul ethanai paadal..
Ithaya surangathul ethanai kelvi...
Vaazhum manitharukkul ethanai salanam.."
Wow! Beautiful voice!

Most of VJ's critics don't really know what they are talking about (most critics in general play favorites). The listening public and the paid-for critics these days have a (mis)pronounced AVERSION to EXCELLENCE. Most tamil film music these days is like toilet paper - imminently flushable.

Naaz, "Ponpondrathu, poopondrathu,yennangallo inidhu" is from the song "Nee Kaettal Naan Maatten Endra Solven Kanna " from "ilamai oonjalaadukirathu"

Vicky, check out VJ's songs in Neela - the recent Kannada hit with music by Vijayabhaskar. It brings back that fine magic. Anyone see a review of Neela's music anywhere on the net. Please post a link/details if you have!

I heard VJ's songs in Neela. Its really amazing to realise that she hasn't lost her touch even after a long gap in playback singing. I really wish she sings in Tamil films.
Its really sad to realise that such a great singer has been totally overlooked by the present generation.

balaji,
here's a favorite saying of my mother's:
Kazhudhaikku theriyumo Karpoora vaasanai?
Naaz

Priya, correct answer. Raghavan, better luck next time. By the way I did not know there was a VJ version of "Devi neeyE".
Naaz, "Arguilvandhu nil, vidiyum varai sol." - neerAda nEram nalla nEram - Vairanenjam. This song has three stanzas in the movie but the tape version has only two. Same with "azagAna iLamangai". Some magic three minute mark. I don't know why they do that. Only to deny us the extended pleasure of listening to those wonderful songs.

Neel - good one - what about the last one in the quiz?
Which tape do you have? Is that the Best of Vani or Voice of Vani or something like that? I will check my Vaira Nenjam song to see if it is the better version (although I guess you will be right once again).
Did VJ have a song in Nee Oru Maharani? I think she did - but maybe I am confusing the film with another Sujatha feature...
There was a solo by VJ (picturised on Sri Devi in the tamil remake of the Hindi "NASEEB") music was by MSV. Anyone know the song I am talking about?

Out of the blue i remembered this song-Aagayathil thottil katti-Film-Thunive thunai-a great solo very haunting melody by VJ
I think she also sang in Oru oothappu kan simitukirathu (Kamal-sujatha starrer). I don't remember the song.

Naaz Ahmad, what is the remake Movie name for "NASEEB"? Is it Neela Malarhal? There is a fantastic duet in Neela Malarhal. "Ithu Irava Pahala? Nee Nilava Kathira?"

on: Tue Dec 11 22:43:42 EST 2001
Aandavan Illa Ullagamethu - Oothappu song, balaji.
NeelaMalargal was Anuraag in hindi.

I can't remember the tamil name for the Naseeb remake. It had sivaji in it and Sridevi. And I know there was a solo by VJ (a nightclub number on the lines of Naadinen Nambinen - but of course, that was from another film!)

on: Tue Dec 11 22:48:22 EST 2001
Naaz,
I don't know the last one. It may pop up soemday while driving or something. Is the next line "en uyirin uyirE nAn..."?
I have a collection of songs (mostly solo) recorded from LP records, not the greatest quality recording but still create the magic. Vani albums are too hard to find in music stores these days.

naadinEn nambinEn - savaal.
sivaji, SridEvi movie: sandhippu :)
- From: Naaz Ahmed (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Tue Dec 11 23:34:24 EST 2001
M - paadal edhuvo....? Sandhippu... yes, that sounds like it.
The savaal song is lovely. the sandippu song was like that song...a crooner number a la Vani.
Know the song I am trying to recollect....?
Neel, yep, the next line is en uyirin uyire. It was a Mohan-Madhavi movie made by K.Balaji. "Devi Nee Indri Naan Yethamma, Yen Uyir Nee thanamma, Nee parkaiyil salanam..." so it goes. Now I have forgotten the name of the movie!!
- From: Naaz Ahmed (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Tue Dec 11 23:43:24 EST 2001
Ok - NQ2:
"Kaatrile pesalaam, geetham paadalam"
" Andha Kaanagathey Karuvaddukku Kazhuthule Vellai" (a rare SJ-VJ duet - name the film)
"Vellither vannathil varum megamam..."
So, go for it...!
(I was just thinking of VJ's song "Mannulagil Indru Devan irangi varugirar...." this being the XMas season and all...and I was mentally comparing it to a similar hymn-styled song by ARR from Misara Kanavu by anuradha sreeram. The contrast! The contrast!)

By the way - the Devi nee indri naan yethama - movie was also a remake of an Hindi one: Insaaf Ka Tarazu.
What was the name....gosh, this memory thing is such a messy affair!!

on: Wed Dec 12 01:52:13 EST 2001
Yes, the Innocent it is! Way to go, Neel!
It also had a "yamma, yamma ammadiyo aathadiyo, enachudho, yedhachudo, uchchi mudal paadam varai ushnam vandhu yerudhu...." a silk-smitha number by VJ. And yet it seemed so dignified in its rendition!

I know the song in Sandthippu. It is amazing song. I purchased Sandthippu Cassette too. But that song was not there. It is,
"Raathiri Nilavil, Rahasiyak kanaavil, Kaathal sangeethamthaan Naan Paadavoooooooooooooooo"

Naaz, the third one is, "Naal Nalla Naal". VJ-TMS duet.

NQ2 - " Andha Kaanagathey Karuvaddukku Kazhuthule Vellai" is from the film "raagam thedum Pallavi"

Sandhipu also had a duet by VJ-TMS (Sivaji-Sridevi). Anybody can recollect the song?
- From: Ramki (@ 161.150.2.250)
on: Wed Dec 12 11:11:50 EST 2001
Priya i think you are talking about 'viswaroobam' song 'raajathi raajanukku raani mele kaadhaladi' which is a TMS-VJ duet for Sivaji and Sri
- From: Naaz Ahmed (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Wed Dec 12 11:14:08 EST 2001
thanks a bunch, Ragavan. It is the Rathiri Nilavil song that has been at the back of my mind and I have been going mad trying to get the words right! Now I am a sane again! Naal Nalla Naal and Ragam thedum Pallavi are the right ones! Pannakkara Penn was the film for the former song. You guys put my hope back in humanity!! :-))
Vani Jairam has recently recorded a whole new album of Thirupavai songs. Should be out early next year I am told.
- From: Naaz Ahmed (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Wed Dec 12 11:16:52 EST 2001
And in that same Viswaroobam there was a reprisal of the 'vannakilli sonna mozhi" tune with "naan pattakadan bhoomiyile..." picturised on sivaji and sujatha? Am I completely off the mark again, or what?

One more sensual no.Devamritham jeevamritham-spb VJ duet-I don't remember the name of the film
Azhagiya mithilayil araupathu kalaigalum-Darling Darling darling with ??
Sangeetham pada -Idhu namma allu
- From: Naaz Ahmed (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Wed Dec 12 11:38:56 EST 2001
Balaji - Devamirtham was from the film Ranga (I think). SPB was the other in the duet from Darling3
I hope i am right with this info. or Ramki will be all over me! Naaz

Devamritham Jeevamritham is in Moondru Mugam (Rajini - Radhika)
D3 is right!
- From: Priya (@ 198.23.26.253)
on: Wed Dec 12 11:50:27 EST 2001
No I am positive about the duet in Sandhipu. It is a VJ-TMS duet. I think in fact there are words praising Sivaji like "Nadigar thilagam" etc...
- From: Naaz Ahmed (@ 24.76.127.63)
on: Wed Dec 12 11:52:54 EST 2001
Yes, Moondru Mugam it is. I was confusing it with the other Rajini-Radhika starrer Ranga (which had karate Mani in it. ) Many thanks, Priya!

There is a nice solo by VJ in Marumagal (Revathi - Suresh - Shivaji)
"Ganapathi yae ganapathi yae.."

on: Wed Dec 12 12:02:15 EST 2001
Digressing from Tamil film songs, I love "Pon maari" devotional sung by Sirkali Govindharaajan and VJ. Excellent. The ganner voices of both make this piece a classic.

Priya, have you heard VJ's Gokula Gaanam? It is superb. Get a copy from Sangeetha Music Co (Chennai).

There is another lovely VJ solo from Marumagal. Anyone know the song I am thinking of?

on: Wed Dec 12 15:40:52 EST 2001
Priya, Neel D - and anyone who has info...
Would you know if there is a clip of the Bharatiyam song by VJ - composed by Pt.Ravi Shankar - on the the net? I have never heard it. I'd would really like to play that tune on my radio show which I present here.
Is it available?

Priya, Ramki:
The sandhippu TMS-VJ song is:
'vaarthai naanadi kannammaa
varna mettu nee thaan en cheellamma'
Pl don't ever watch this song :)
