Udhaya:

That was the only song that Roshanara Begum wrote
for TFM. Islaamiya peNNaana avar kungumap paottin
mangalaththaip patri paadiyadhu evvaLavu
arumaiyaana vishayam, illaiyaa?

That's an amazing instance where art triumphs over other human barriers. I have been meaning to start a thread about female poets in TFM and right away realized the next to nothing contribution on lyric threads. We have about a 100 threads all dealing with who is better than who, who copied. Such dispiriting stuff. I'm glad we have a few of us who genuinely care about discussing and sharing information.

Vadiyaar is Vadiyaar.. No competition. I remember watching the old movies during my summer vacation's in madras and I still feel great listening to the oldies

Hi!

It's my strong feeling that duets composed by MSV and Viswanathan-Ramamurthy are the only ones that can be called 'duets!' and only more so in MGR movies.

I also believe that there's more emotion in TFM duets (I'm only referring to the old songs) both on screen and off screen than even in Hindi movies!

We always had and have better talented singers like P.Sushila, TMS , LREaswari, Janaki, PBS and Vani Jayaram ( not to leave SPB and KJYesudas who are still singing) who could modulate their voices according to the actors/actresses. Such voice matching and modulation was more prevalent in our films than Hindi films.

I do greatly rever Lata Mangeshkar, Rafi, Asha and Mukesh. Their voices were great. But when it comes to prefessional singing in movies where one expects the play-back singers' voices to match those of actors/actresses, our singers far excelled them and always.

I also feel that our singers have always been left out somewhere on the way to complete recognition, don't you feel the same way too?

Thanks, karthi.
