A few more hits from 70's are still to be posted here in this thread.

Let me focus on them and complete, before moving on to next decade where KJY had a lot more songs from MDs other than IR Smile

Radio hit, I liked this song those days (sounds like a typical 70's Hindi song)

#66 நீ ஒரு மகராணி
(நீ ஒரு மகாராணி, இசை: சங்கர் கணேஷ்)

If not for wikipedia and youtube, I wouldn't have imagined this to be KJY - even though I clearly remember listening to this song on radio during school days (and thus want to classify this song from 1964 to be a hit song - the 2nd of KJY in TFM) :

#67 நீலவண்ணக் கண்கள் இரண்டு 
(வீராங்கனை, இசை : வேதா)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQhcCS7S0Gw



As some websites credit this song to S M Subbiah, I had to ask the question to those with expertise / industry connections and confirm that it was indeed Veda - I should thank both @kanapraba and @rajinirams for immediately getting back Smile

There is yet another song from 60's and this one too had its radio time (I myself have heard it a few times, though without realizing that it was KJY Laughing )

Per wilki and other internet sources, this is from 1963 - if so, it predates bommai - so I'm not sure why that bommai song is generally believed to be the singer's first in TFM Embarassed

This song is very familiar to me from the 78 RPM record days, heard it frequently (both on radio and other functions) - never thought this was KJY Embarassed

Of course, LRE is the mainstay of this song and those days didn't bother to check who the male singer & MD were Embarassed

There are 3 other KJY songs listed in wiki from 1960's - but I've never heard them before and cannot categorize as "hits" - never even heard them on radio Embarassed

So, without serial numbers, let me place them here - just for reference as to some of the old TFM songs of KJY.

Now, let me focus on whether any 70's hits still remain to be collected and get them on this thread Smile

Adding 3 "radio only hits" of MSV from 70's - all of them absolutely boring to me those days, making me try other stations Embarassed

Three more "radio hits" from 70s, all by mellisai mannar and those that got frequently played in various stations.

Personally I never had a taste for these (or these kind of ) songs Embarassed

Documenting here...


#73 செண்டுமல்லிப் பூப்போல் அழகிய பந்து

After the arrival of IR, lot of MDs turned toward "folk" and Shankar-Ganesh had been somewhat successful in getting a few hit songs.  They deliberately used a lot of "uRumi mELam" those days, to establish the "folkness" of such songs.
(kannipparuvaththilE was their biggest hit among those).

This song had KJY as pinnanikkural for Ganesh (yes, the music director) also acting as hero in a movie. Of cours, "folk, with uRumi mELam"

The song was quite popular those days (and has a lot of views on YT also)

#76 செப்புக்குடம் தூக்கிப்போற செல்லம்மா

I've earlier posted the G Devarajan song from the famous movie "annai vELAnkanni" featuring JJ on screen (vAnamenum veedhiyilE).

Found out today that there's another KJY song in that same album - and this too got played frequently in village festivals. (Especially where there are church festivals and the likes).

So, one more song from that album to this thread :

#77 தந்தா தானன தந்தானா 
(அன்னை வேளாங்கண்ணி, இசை: ஜி தேவராஜன்)

The 1975 album 'swAmi ayyappan' was a huge success in both Tamil and Malayalam, composed by Devarajan master.

KJY had many songs in them. They played everywhere in both Kerala and TN (not just then but for years thereafter - most of us would have listened to them at one point of time or other - in my case, always involuntarily Wink )

Three big hits are to be added to this thread (some have alternative songs in Malayalam):

#78 திருப்பாற்கடலில் பள்ளி கொண்டாயே
(சுவாமி ஐயப்பன், இசை: ஜி தேவராஜன்)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8h3F9a7WUFs

While I'm very familiar with this song (and heard in 100's of times, all involuntarily those days and can thus confirm it to be a hit), did not know much about the details.

From the net, it appears to have been done by L Vaidyanathan (though could not confirm by sleeves / posters etc.) - only wikipedia as the source, so, cannot vouch for authenticity!

I've earlier posted the popular "mAdapRAvE vA" song from paruva mazhai. Even posted a doubt whether this was credited to Shyam those days.

Regardless, found another song from the same album today - that too got played frequently on radio those days.

Another 70's "radio-only-hit", this one composed by GKV - under whom Ilayaraja worked as assistant for many movies (perhaps for this one as well).

Heard this song many times on radio and enjoyed the lovely anu pallavi!

Never realized or recognized that this had Dasettan as the male voice Embarassed Of course, remember this as a Janaki song - she is very sweet in this!

#86 கூந்தலிலே நெய் தடவி
(கல்யாண ஊர்வலம், இசை: R பார்த்தசாரதி)

To make sure the credits are correct (often wiki is incorrect), checked the vinyl Wink

The movie and song are on YT, of course. Here is the video (KJY sings for "chithappA" Nagesh! Also, the actress on-screen is wife of veNNiRa Adai Moorthy as per comments there) :

Identified Salilda to be the composer of this "நடந்தாய் வாழி காவேரி" song heard those days on radio.

Interestingly, I've also found a dhool article by Saravanan sir on this song Smile

Here is the link for the "new" dhool article:

Another radio-hit from 70's, this one by Dakshinamoorthy (whom IR holds in high reverence).

In the most recent interview of IR (given to Vijay Antony), he talks about playing instruments for this MD as well!

Now getting into 80's - the most productive and busiest period of KJY's career. (Both IR and non-IR). 

Of course, he was "mudi soodA mannan" of Kerala with many youths sporting a beard like him Laughing He had many hits in TFM as well.

Starting with a Salilda number, perhaps the only Tamil song left under his baton for this thread - for an off-beat (festival grade) movie starring Vijayakanth.

During my college days (1981-85), T Rajendar was the worthy rival to Ilayaraja - I mean commercially - and he did have a couple of hits in those years with KJY. (Most of TR songs had SPB, of course).

Two songs that I can quickly recall to be huge hits from that time period are these:

#90 வைகைக்கரைக்காற்றே நில்லு 
(உயிருள்ளவரை உஷா, இசை: டி ராஜேந்தர்)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EZvoBs863k

An interesting KJY song that had both SPB & SJ singing with him - and this came during my college days.

Funny that wikipedia lists this song under Bappi Lahiri Laughing Which was true (as the original was done by him in Hindi) but the TFM song / disc is actually credited with Shankar-Ganesh.

S-G were like "TN distributors / dealers" for many Bappi Lahiri songs those days (take the track and dub with Tamil song kind of work) and the credits were often given to either. Also, Bappi Lahiri didn't have the habit of doing OST BGM (only songs, you see, I'm very busy).

Well, this is quite a catchy song regardless!

Raveendran master, who made many evergreen songs in Malayalam with KJY, did a few Tamil movies.

Of those, "rasigan oru rasigai" had 3 hit songs with KJY (couple of them very popular to this day and the third one had decent air time when it arrived).

#93 ஏழிசை கீதமே
(ரசிகன் ஒரு ரசிகை, இசை: ரவீந்திரன் மாஸ்டர்)
Popular to this day (though not a personal fav - the saraNam is good IMO)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7_eywfmfu4



#94 பாடி அழைத்தேன்
(ரசிகன் ஒரு ரசிகை, இசை: ரவீந்திரன் மாஸ்டர்)
Once again, evergreen number, though not a personal fav Embarassed

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKaxhZjTQY0



#95 வெள்ளி மூக்கு (கழுத சத்தம் நல்ல சத்தம்)
(ரசிகன் ஒரு ரசிகை, இசை: ரவீந்திரன் மாஸ்டர்)

This is not remembered anymore - but had decent air time when it arrived!

Adding 3 songs to the thread from Manoj-Gyan, who were quite popular in the late 80's with a few hit albums to their credit. Especially oomai vizhigaL which was a smash hit.

Two of these are super hit songs while the third one had limited reach (sounds like old Hindi song or Malayalam song).

#96 நிலை மாறும் உலகில்
(ஊமை விழிகள், இசை: மனோஜ்-கியான்)
This was a super hit song, played everywhere those days!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLQQ-GIQwpE



#97 அழகான புள்ளி மானே
(மேகம் கருத்திருக்கு, இசை: மனோஜ் கியான்)
This too played everywhere those days, even though the movie was not very popular!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkOeUx-Pbzg



#98 துள்ளித்துள்ளிப் போகும் பெண்ணே
(வெளிச்சம், இசை: மனோஜ்-கியான்)
Limited reach but had some air time despite the huge set of songs available in that time period!

MSV did not have too many super hit songs with KJY in the 80's or later.

That was obviously because of the IR juggernaut - but he also tended to lean more on SPB (for Kamal / Rajini / Sivaji kind of big star movies and not KJY for some reason).

Despite the overall numbers, some MSV-KJY songs made it really big - played everywhere in buses / tea stalls etc. I mean as much popular as IR or TR numbers in those years. Let me collect a couple of them in this post, to reach the thread century Smile

When a set of newcomers made a movie on pollution and such off-beat theme for 80's, they roped in IR's buddy L Vaidyanathan as MD.

He composed many songs using Bharathiyar poems and made KJY sing 4 of them.

2 were popular and let us count them here in this thread Smile
