Friends,
I'm in the process of digitalizing my age-old collection of audio cassettes by converting them into mp3s and writing them on cds. Wherever possible,I am acquiring the original cassette/cd of some of the songs. I found this song : "Yaaradhu, manmadhan, yenidhu mandiram, ardharaathiri sarasmO, aasai kolvathenna virasamO, aNbu mannavan uruvamO..." sung by SPB & LR Eswari. Can anybody kindly let me know the film so that I can try to get the orginal soundtrack cassette.

2. Kalyanam Kacheri from Chollathaan Ninaikirean (sivakumar movie)
3. Adikup Pinne Avani Maatham from Sivakamiyin Selvan

with kaamaroobam. music is MSV.)

From: Raghu (@ 212.134.69.162) on: Mon Jul 14 11:16:02 EDT 2003

G.Ragavan,

'Naalai Namathey', was it not an MGR movie?, as far as I know, there is only one song which SPB sang together with TMS, that is 'Naalai namathey',..

Do correct me if I am wrong.

G Ragavan-

Aadikku pinnae-TMS-LRE
Hello my dear wrong number- KJY-LRE

Kaamaroopam song starts with Pushparagam- Thanikkudithanam.
From: Subbu (@ 203.200.198.9) on: Tue Jul 15 00:33:20 EDT 2003

SPB supposedly started his first Tamil Film Song with LR Eshwari

Song: Aththaanukku Ippadi Irukku
Film: Hotel Rambha
MD: MSV
Note: JaiShakar and Kumari T.Padmini were the planned cast. But film was not released.

"Oogoal pogindra kiLi koottam ellam" is by SPB and LR Anjali.

In "Utharavindri ulle vaa..." the title song was sung by SPB+LRE+TMS
From: Subbu (@ 203.200.198.9) on: Tue Jul 15 00:34:25 EDT 2003

It is "OorgOalam pogindra kiLi koottam ellam"
From: G.Ragavan (@ 210.210.93.19) on: Tue Jul 15 02:42:45 EDT 2003

Raghu, Naan Oru Medai Paadagan was by TSM, LRE and SPB. TMS for MGR, LRE for Latha and SPB for a Telugu Actor.

Saravanan, both corrections are right. :-) etho slip of tongue. :-)
From: Cinema Virumbi (@ 203.197.220.195) on: Tue Jul 15 03:44:41 EDT 2003

Raghu,

Somewhere in the VJ thread, we had discussed another song of TMS-SPB in 'thuNivE thuNai'

'achcham ennai nerungaathu, yaaraik kaNdum nadungaathu, I'll meet your challenge!'
From: Subbu (@ 203.200.198.9) on: Tue Jul 15 06:30:31 EDT 2003

GR, That telugu actor was Chandramohan (who also acted in ShankarabharaNam as Rajalakshmi's would-be).
From: raj (@ 12.30.122.10) on: Tue Jul 15 07:44:42 EDT 2003

chandramohan was sripriya's pair in NEeya too
From: Raghu (@ 212.134.69.162) on: Tue Jul 15 08:32:05 EDT 2003

Saravanan,

>>Marandhe Pochchu- Athaiya Mamiya<<, I thought it was SPB+VJ ??

G.Ragavan,

thanks 4 the info :)

Cinema Virumbi,

hmm, i don't recall that song, there were only couple of SPB+TMS comb, as far as i know :)
From: interpreter (@ 4.41.45.232) on: Tue Jul 15 09:14:04 EDT 2003

Raghu: Marandhe Pochchu - Athaiya Mamiya is most certainly SPB+LRE
From: Saravanan (@ 213.42.2.9) on: Tue Jul 15 13:27:45 EDT 2003

--and 'Oorgolam pogindra kilikkootam' is also most certainly SPB-LRE
From: Sathya (@ 67.85.212.31) on: Tue Jul 15 14:26:57 EDT 2003

Saravanan
You are right.
oorgolam pOkinRa kiLikkoottam ellAm is certainly by SPB, LRE.

2 more songs (not in your list)

anangan angathan - kaNkAtchi (APN film)
may be one more song in the same film.

uLLam pO enRathu nerungip pAr enRathu - Gnanaoli.
This song was not in the movie. malarnthum malarAtha paadal.

Rajaraja chOzhan song "mAthennai padaiththAn unakkAga" Is it TMS, SPB, LRE and MR.Vijaya? I have to check it out.
From: Saravanan (@ 195.229.241.233) on: Tue Jul 15 15:08:17 EDT 2003

Thanks Sathya :-)

Kann kaatchi- one more SPB-LRE song: Thullum mangai mugam.

Maathennai padaithaan- You are right, of course!

One more song in Utharavindri Ullae Vaa- Unnai thoduvathu iniyathu (with PS & Saibaba)

Another song I dimly recollect: Pogappoga nallurukkum - from Anbukkoru Annan?
From: Subbu (@ 203.200.198.9) on: Tue Jul 15 23:17:10 EDT 2003

I am 200% sure that OorgOlam pogindra is by LR Anjali. I saw the film twice, that too one of which is recently. LR Eshwari did not sing in that movie at all!!

We may not be always correct. If not ready to accept it, no loss for me :-)
From: Sathya (@ 67.85.212.31) on: Wed Jul 16 00:13:45 EDT 2003

Marandthey Pochu is SPB-LRE combo song.
Maathennaip Padaithaan is also a good song from Kunnakudi Vaithiyanaathan.
From: Raghu (@ 212.134.69.162) on: Wed Jul 16 05:14:03 EDT 2003

There is another song , it goes some thing like this

'Ankam puthuvitha azhahinil,...', i think that is SPB + LRE combo , right ??
From: G.Ragavan (@ 164.164.94.123) on: Wed Jul 16 05:19:06 EDT 2003

is "Netroru Menahai" from Manmatha Leelai a duet?
From: Cinema Virumbi (@ 203.197.220.201) on: Wed Jul 16 06:08:23 EDT 2003

Raghu,

The song is:

SPB:angam puthu vitham azhaginil oru vitham nangai mugam navarasa nilavu
LRE:nangai ivaLidam navarasam pazhagiya ungaL manam adhisayak kanavu

SPB:haa navarasa nilavu
LRE:hey adhisayak kanavu
From: Thenraja,K. (@ 167.192.89.1) on: Wed Jul 16 07:54:55 EDT 2003

Subbu,
SPB's first song goes like this - "Aththaanodu ippadi irunthu eththanai naalaatchu"

During his concert in Atlanta 3 years ago, SPB sang a couple of lines of that song, while answering my question (I sent a note to him) about his first tamil film song.
From: Raghu (@ 212.134.69.162) on: Wed Jul 16 09:42:41 EDT 2003

Cinema Virumbi,

Thanks for the info, don't u think that VJ and LRE have some similarity in their voices, of course LRE has much more stamina and energy than VJ when it comes to fast and pop like songs!

but VJ is way ahead of LRE in terms of melodies :)
From: venkat (@ 128.100.148.47) on: Wed Jul 16 11:18:52 EDT 2003

mmm. let me raise the bid, I am 225% sure it is LRE :))

netroru mEnagai from manmatha leelai is by AV Ramanan.
From: Naaz (@ 24.87.30.219) on: Wed Jul 16 12:02:17 EDT 2003

Raghu -

LRE and VJ are both tamizh singers who sing in the language with cultural authority. They also sing with their voices rising from their stomach, and not the tip of their tongue. Their tenor may have similarities but their styles are individual and unmisakable.
For a study in "stamina" (I think you mean speed, breath control and boom) I'd recommend the following random VJ songs to you:
Mazhaikalamum Panikkalamum - Savitri
Azhagiya Kalai Nilave - Rajarishi
Kottilil Thodangidum - Kanne Kaniamudhe
Kavidhai Kelungal - Punnagai Mannan
Andhela Ravamidhi Padhamuladha (with SPB) - Swarnakamalam
Aanathi Neeyara - Swatikiranam
Shivani Bhavani (what a scale - what an opening!) Swatikiranam

These are all available at www.vanijairam.com - if you care to check them out.
From: RR (@ 203.199.213.3) on: Wed Jul 16 22:25:53 EDT 2003

Naaz:Regarding Vj's stamina, how about the opening song in AgniSatchi. In fact, both VJ and LRE have sung together. Might be a ggod song to compare the two great singers.
RR
From: G.Ragavan (@ 164.164.94.123) on: Thu Jul 17 00:09:28 EDT 2003

RR, that is a very good song (Innoru Kannahi from Agni Saatchi). in fact, both of them exceled in the songs. v can say nothing less about any of them. that is one of my favorite songs.
From: Cinema Virumbi (@ 203.197.220.201) on: Thu Jul 17 00:28:57 EDT 2003

Raghu,

I admire both the singers (VJ a vee bit more!).
I generally avoid getting into this comparison business. It has a tendency to lead you into messy quarrels, which are anyday worth avoiding!
From: Raghu (@ 212.134.69.162) on: Thu Jul 17 05:11:50 EDT 2003

Cinema Virumbhi,

I agree with you, I do feel VJ and LRE have simlar voices, but I like VJ a bit more than LRE, like you :))

Naaz,

Thanks for the list, One of my SPB+VJ song is
'Madhanortsavam rathiodu thaan, rathi theviyoo' from Super* rajni movie ?

SPB is awsome, esp when he sings for Rajni :)
From: Naaz (@ 24.87.30.219) on: Thu Jul 17 23:18:03 EDT 2003

RR -

Thank you for reminding me of the Agni Saatchi song by MSV-LRE-VJ. I had forgotten all about it.
It was quite a dramatic song, narrating the final moment of Silapadhigaram where Kannagi is on a fiery blitz burning all of Madurai. The "Innoru Kannagi" is an interesting "revisioning" - presenting the flip side of rage as reconsideration - for that's the message of the "alternative" kannagi, who was unavailable to Illango in 1223 AD!
Why should other innocents pay with their lives for the loss of your husband's life. Kannagi's irrationality is effectively isolated as being selfish.
The song is a robust enactment of this climactic moment, and all three singers give it their operatic best.

Like CV, I don't do the comparison thing. All I can say it that songs of such cultural import - in singing and language - are all but extinct in current TFM. Agniyai Saatchiyai Vaiththu Solluvaen :-) (though all you might need as confirmation of the truth in my statement is a link to the top 10 at raaga.com:-))
From: Kamesh Kalapala (@ ) on: Tue Aug 5 13:50:10 EDT 2003

Friends,
Can anybody tell me the lyrics of the song sung by Usha Iyer (presently Usha Uthup)in the film "Mel Naattu Marumagal" during the 70s, I think, but the music was by Kunnakudi Vaidyanaathan.
