I think Kannimaru from Kaathal Saathi is sung by Chitra.

I think Kannimaru Kovilile from Kaathal Saathi is sung by Chitra. A nice, sweet song.

Please ignore my above postings. Kannimaru is sung by Harini.

hihi - chandaiyellam onnum illai. I tried to map the popularity of singers of different period. that is all.

PS was with MSV from the first.
SJ was with IR from the first.
TMS was with MSV from the first.
SPB was with IR from the first.
PBS was with MSV from the first.
KJY was with IR from the first.
LRE was introduced by KVM and well utilized by MSV.
Swarnalatha was introduced by MSV and well utilized by IR.
VJ was introduced by MSV when he was in peak. VJ was used by IR also and her popularity (market popularity and not talent. replace popularity wherever used) went down with MSV.
KSC was introduced by IR when he was in peak. KSC was used by ARR also and her popularity went down with IR.
This is the comparision. Not their voice quality or modulations or some other thing.

There is a good song by Chitra in "Naan paada ninaippathellaam". Available in www.musicindiaonline.com , the whole album is pretty neat except for Shankar's song.

One more comparison on VJ and KSC.
VJ got national award (in MSV's music) for KB's classical based movie Apoorva Raagangkal.
KSC got national award (in IR's music) for KB's classical based movie Sindthu Bairavi.

Chitra is "the" songstress in MFM. She has sung some breathtaking numbers in MFM. And I wonder if thee is any immediate replacement for Chitra in MFM since Sujatha still seems to be not getting many songs there.

In tamil, when it comes to a semi-classical song chitra is still the option that MDs go for. Harini seems to be the next and all others are still "catching up". I wonder if there is any other person who can render KaNNaaLanE / Kehnaa hai kyaa with the she has imparted.

In the annals of TFM names of PS,SJ and KSC will remain imprinted forever.

typo : with the bhaava she has imparted.

MS,
I fully agree with you.You are absolutely right and made the point. Chithra is a great singer and sincere music lovers are all proud to have a singer of her calibre in our music scene.
