Well we have collected many of her hits in TFM but so far I did not see any of her memorable sad songs listed( less than 10 perhaps) So why not we collect some of her sad tunes which mostly goes unnoticed.

To start of:

Vasantha kaala kolanggal (Thiagam)
Thene thenpandi meene(Udaya Geetham)
Thevan kovil paravai ithu( I think Sudarum Sooravaliyum)
Potthi vatcha malligai..pathos (everyone should know this)
Thalaivane unmugam....pathos(Poruttham)
Nallathor veenai seithein(Marubadiyum)
Thoothu po sellakkili(Title song)
Thoorathil nan kanda unmugam(Nizhalgal)
enough for now!

On 17th July, 1998, S Janaki has been admitted in a hospital (Intensive Care) in Houston, TX after she developed a coronary block. She under stable condition now and released on 21 July. Just a week before this unfortunate incident she performed live at Detorit, MI. She captivated the audience with her melodious voice. Many described the performance as awesome.

One more song to add to the list:

Maalai nera kaatrey, mouna raagam yaeno, unn kaadhal tholvi thaano unn aasai yaavum veeNo
-from Agal Vilakku is a superb song to ears.

From: MSK (@ marimuth-nt.qualcomm.com) on: Mon Jan 25 15:56:21 EST 1999

There is a recent pathos song by SJ in the latest telugu hit "Anthapuram".. Very good song and SJ will move you with the pathos feeling ..

This song must have been recorded in recent months .. Her voice is still golden inspite of her recent illness.
From: SM (@ 208.236.83.16) on: Mon Jan 25 18:58:50 EST 1999

1) nilavukku thaalaattu solai kuyilae nee padu (Film : Pudhu Manidhan. SJ sang this song for Bhanupriya and another famour singer in this film. Guess who is the singer? Yes. LRE!!!)

2) nadhiyoram karayoram oru raagam alai paayum adhilae indha uyirae thinam karayum (Film : Aavarampoo)

3) koondukkulla enna vachu koodi ninna oora vittu (Film : Chinna Gounder)

4) nilave mugam kaattu (Film : Yejamaan)

5) azhagiya kannae (Film : Udhirippookkal)

6) thaenae then paandi meenae (Film : Udhaya Geetham)
From: Sriram (@ rhc-wf01.net.hfh.edu) on: Mon Jan 25 20:36:22 EST 1999

Anandaum (is it spelt right or type error?)

Thanks. That song from Agal Vilakku, one from Aval appadiththaan - "Vaazhkai odam sella, aatril neerottam illai", one from Nizhalgal - "Dhoorathil naan kaNda uN mugam nadhi dheerathil thaen konda enn manam" are my favourites . Manasai pottu pisayum. What a rendition by SJ!

There is another great song which I am not sure if is a pathos. "Vanna Vanna poonjolayil poopolavaey, sengani paruvam ilamottu uruvam, idharkum iniya uravaey" from Pootaadha Pootukkal.

Raja at his best as MD for the above songs.

Nostalgic memories linger on...

Sriram

This always brings tears to my eyes ...
"thalaattu maaRi pOnadu"
From: karthi (@ lab6.theatrium.net) on: Mon Jan 25 22:14:45 EST 1999

I doubt if songs like 'vanna vanna poonjOlaiyil', 'chinnan chiriya vanna paravai', 'pAdava un pAdalai' are sad songs!

Here's my list...

0. sollathAn ninaikkirEn (pathos) - am not sure
about this, can someone help?
1. kannilE enna undu (aval oru thodarkadhai)
2. vaigai karaiyinil oru paravai (natchaththiram)
3. azhagu malar aAda (vaidhegi kAthirundhAL)
4. kannile neer edharku (pOleeskAran magal)
5. indha mandrathil Odi varum (pathos) (")
6. en annai seidha pAvam (not so popular-SumaithAngi)
7.kanavOdu sila nAl (a stanza from 'Annakili Unna ThEdudhE' which comes in the movie)
8.Ippadi oOr thAlAttu pAdavA (AvargaL)
From: anandaum (@ 202.186.47.15) on: Tue Jan 26 01:09:16 EST 1999

There are a few more like:
1) Vidukathai ondru thodarkathai ondru
2) Kanavugale oorkolam yengge kavithayai
3) Cheri kuzhanthaigal sevvanthi arumbugal
4) Thedum kann parvai

Actually this topic should focus more on SJ's solos.
From: anandaum (@ 202.186.47.15) on: Tue Jan 26 01:11:24 EST 1999

There are a few more like:
1) Vidukathai ondru thodarkathai ondru ( with SPB & DR BK)
2) Kanavugale oorkolam yengge kavithayai
3) Cheri kuzhanthaigal sevvanthi arumbugal(with KJY)
4) Thedum kann parvai( Mappillai song)
There is a song sounds something like man kudisai seithein...karai oram
Actually this topic should focus more on SJ's solos.
From: SM (@ 208.236.83.26) on: Tue Jan 26 18:34:48 EST 1999

Hi,

Tjhere is one song "vennilavukku vaanatha pudikkalaya" from a Parthiban, Kushboo, Rupini movie
From: suresh (@ 202.185.109.46) on: Wed Jan 27 23:45:58 EST 1999

why no one pointed about SJ 60's songs like
intha mandrathil odi varum
ilam threndralai khetkindren..

of course this is not solo.

Chinna thayaval thandha raasave from 'thalapathy' also a great solo from SJ.
From: anandaum (@ 202.186.47.15) on: Thu Jan 28 01:13:33 EST 1999

Can any tell the movie for this song Uthayam terigidrathe ithayam tudikkindrathe... this is a sad song from early IR period.
From: rameshb (@ spider-wc083.proxy.aol.com) on: Thu Jan 28 01:51:15 EST 1999

anandaum,
it is from the movie 'kavikkuyil', the same movie in which we had two versions of 'chinna kannan azhaikiran' by SPB and BMK.
From: Sriram (@ 132-ppp-a.tnt02.agis.net) on: Thu Jan 28 20:04:44 EST 1999

Anandaum,

That song goes like.."Udhayam varugindradhey, malargal malargindradhey, privil thudikindra pulli maan ondru, uravai azhaikindradhu". Its a great song! Kavikuyil has one more song which is not so popular sung by Balamuralikrishna (not Chinna Kannan..) That song is "Aayiram kodi kaalangal aaga aanandha leelayin naayagan neeyey". It is a lovely song.

Maerku thodarchi malai uchiyiley naan paatu padikiraendi othayiley - a song from 'Sholay'amma music by Deva - a good sorrow number by SJ.

"kanavugal yaengum kaalam ingey, kavidhaiyai thaedum nenjam ingey" - I do not know if I wrote the lyrics correctly but if only somebody picks up this song and tell me which movie it is from, I will be thankful. It is a fantastic song sung by SJ, I think tuned by IR, acted by Shobha. (old movie)
From: Ramki (@ pm062-05.spindler.wmich.edu) on: Thu Jan 28 20:39:28 EST 1999

Sriram'kanavugalae..'is from 'samandhipoo'and the MD is Malaysia vasudevan(his debut as a MD)

The song should be

kanavugalae oorgolam engae
From: Sriram (@ cfp118069.det.hfh.edu) on: Fri Jan 29 12:40:15 EST 1999

Is that it, Ramki? Thanks for the info. I think it is a good song for a debutant MD.
From: SM (@ 208.236.83.26) on: Fri Jan 29 19:22:27 EST 1999

Hi,

How about this song from "Payanangal Mudivadhillai" (of course, it is not a solo song but sung by SPB and SJ)?

"mani osai kaettu ezhundhu
nenjil aasai kodi sumandhu"
From: anandaum (@ 202.186.47.15) on: Tue Feb 2 01:04:17 EST 1999

Thanks a lot Sriram and Rameshb.

There are many asd duets like
1) Chinnachiru kiliye
2) Yennathan sugamo nenjile
3) Nilave mugam kaatdu

But we should try to get somemore solos.
From: anandaum (@ 202.186.47.15) on: Wed Feb 3 00:50:23 EST 1999

One more SJ's sad solo:

Aruginil nee varum naal varai kaathirupein

but I do not know the movie.
From: suresh (@ 202.185.109.63) on: Mon Feb 8 05:15:51 EST 1999

ajju!

Is that 80's song? I think the movie is
'Pei Veedu'.
From: anandaum (@ 202.186.47.15) on: Tue Feb 9 01:07:29 EST 1999

Thanks Suresh. It is Pei Veedu but what is the name that you have used????????????
From: suresh (@ 202.185.109.61) on: Wed Feb 10 23:08:46 EST 1999

sorry anadaum!

it just a typing error. anyway what is anandaum? It's sounds funny!
From: anandaum (@ 202.186.47.15) on: Thu Feb 11 00:52:00 EST 1999

Anandaum stands for ananda who dwells in UM.
Something like Yeyarkon Kalikkamar which means Kalikkamar of Yeyarkudi village.

So that clearly tell you that I am Ananda of UM!
