ramaswamy, joe: Probably, the song that brings NT's talents to the fore is "Pesade, vayulla oomai nee" in Deepam.

Murali Sir: A melodious song rendered soulfully and quite refreshing to see an IR-TMS combination in your pick. As usual, you have givena comprehensive account of the events and players surrounding...

Nakeeran: Wonderful choice! I recently happened to hear the sad version of the song> With essentially the same tune what an amazing contrast in mood through music, lyrics and singing!

I forgot to mention the lyrics. TKR said in an interview recently that all the songs of Karnan were written by KD in about two hours!!

Nakeeran: Thanks for teh Karnan song and your comments. I also feel that Karnan is a landmark album in TFM and I cannot really think of any other album that even comes close in terms of melody,...

Nakeeran, Umaramesh:
The song "Maname Muruganin" is sung by one or both of Radha-jayalakshmi duo. It is based on the raga Hindolam and is without doubt a precious gem.

Ramaswamy: You missed out Karnan, in my opinion, their best.
RRA

ramesh: Excellent song to showcase the master's versatility. At one stage in a charanam, he gives a folksy twist to one of the lines; immediately followed by a switch to a western style. The effect...

Dear Balaji: I could not agree with you more on your glowing tributes to the way Shivaji acted in Gauravam. Arguably his best performance ever.
By the way, I thought Dheerga Sumangali was directed...

balaji: There is one more song " Aadumadi Thottil" sung by PS, in Aval Oru....

Balaji: Naadodi has another superb song "Kangalinaal" sung brilliantly by PS. Of course, "Androru Naal" is a very popular number from the same movie; if i recall right, there are two versions of this...

Ramesh, Balaji: This is what MSV said about Madana Maaligai
