Sakkari Nilave from Youth


I have only taken the parts that are appealing to me, so this is not the whole song... It is being sung by a man who is deeply saddened by his lover rejecting him... This is Tamil movie, so in the end, she comes around... so don't feel too bad!!

Kadhal being compared to Kadavul in that you can only feel it is pretty cool I thought.

Un Samayal Arayil from Dhill

Another beautiful song, set to music by Vidyasagar... Basically in every comparison, both would work, but have different characteristics... Madi and Thalayanai, for example - to help one have a good sleep either the Lap or a pillow would be good, but each has its own pros and cons and there are contexts in which one is better than the other.

May Masam '98il


OK... I love this song and the tune. It is from a movie called Jay Jay. As you can see, the lyrics is here not because of any serious literary value and is probably demeaning to Kannadasan, whose lyrics appears next to his beautiful lyrics.
However, try to do what I did... On a nice day, while driving with my wife, I was trying to demonstrate to her the exact recipe that is prescribed in this song... If you badly want the rest of the lyrics, please check it out at http://www.nanjilonline.com/music/lyrix.asp?lyrix=jayjay

Ninaikka Therindha Maname - Anandha Jyothi


A classic... I can remember Wednesday nights when All India Radio had a program from 10 PM - 11 PM playing older songs and some of these classics filling the airwaves. P. Susheela is just brilliant in some of these songs and Kannadasan, well, what can I say!!!
