Layman, I'll put you at ease. I too remember some fantasy fiction stopped after ne week...either that or we have some telepathic delusion

Need hubber's help in identifying the following:
SPB's first song for IR - (I think it is - Oru Naal Unnodu Oru Naal from Uravaadum Nenjam, but not sure)
How about KJY, MV, PS... what are their first songs for IR? For SJ, it should be Annakili Unnai Theduthe I believe.

Kindly let me know these songs. Thanks.

Quoting Plum from the IR-SPB thread :

-----
I think the consensus(after the dhool and SOTD discussions) was that Paalotti valarththa kiLi was the first SPB song for IR. "nAn pEsa vandhaen" also being symbolic of SPB coming into IR's fold.
The second film of IR is generally considered to be the one where Kannadasan wrote out his welcome letter to IR - "Raja vaa" (i.e.) paalootti vaLarththa kiLi
-----

For KJY, it got to be 'kaNNan oru kaikkuzhandhai' and for MV 'oththa roovA onakkuththAREn' (both from bathrakALi).

For PS, there is this annakkiLi song : 'sondhamillai bandhamillai vAduthu oru paRavai' (This song was added to the movie weeks after the release and got highlighted in newspaper / poster advertisements)

Ilaiyaraaja receiving an award instituted in the name of one of his gurus (informal gurus we can say)! Superb!

கவர்னரும் சொன்ன நேரத்தில் வந்தார். அப்புறம் அவரும் காத்திருந்தார். யாருக்காக? இசைஞானி இளையராஜாவுக்காக. கவர்னர் வந்து பத்து நிமிடங்கள் கழித்துதான் ராஜாவே ஸ்டுடியோவை விட்டு வெளியே வந்தார். இசைக்கு முன் 'புரோட்டோகால்' ஒரு விஷயமேயில்லை அல்லவா?
