MUSIC IS DIVINE - 1 OF 3

Hi friends,

1. CARNATIC SONGS

Anyone not interested in music misses something in life. I have a lot of interest in music, especially after my wedding. My wife is a classical singer. You may be surprised if I tell you she sang five songs on our girl seeing the ceremony in 1973. She follows the style of  GNB, MLV, Radha & Jayalakshmi, and Sudha Ragunathan. My daughter is also a good singer. Whenever I am alone I have the habit of humming my favourite songs. They are: 

1. Sri Chakra Raja Ragamaliga Sudha Ragunathan

2. Sobillu sabdhaswara Jaganmohini Radha Jayalakhsmi
3. Chinnanjiru Kiliye Ragamaliga G.N.B
4. Ongi Ulagalandha Uthaman Arabhi M.L.V
5. Banturithi Kolu Hamsanadham Radha Jayalakshmi
6. Krishna Nee Begane Baro Yaman Kalyani Yesudass
7. Chamaja vara ghamana Hindolam G.N.B
8. Alaipayudhey Kanna Kanada Sudha Ragunathan
9. Radha Samedha Krishna Kalyani G.N.B
​10.Thaye Yashoda unthan Thodi Madurai Mani Iyer

2. CARNATIC BASED TAMIL FILM SONGS

I have given above ten songs in Carnatic music as my favourite. Music in any form is divine. To bring Carnatic ragaa into film songs is not an easy task. A lot of talent is needed to do that as huge money is at stake. Our music directors, lyricists and playback singers have combined wonderfully well to bring out the best effect. These are my favourite film songs based on Carnatic raga. 

1. அமுதும் தேனும் எதற்கு                 சீர்காழி

2. ஒரு நாள் போதுமா                          பால முரளி
3. பாட்டும் நானே பாவமும் நானே            டி எம் எஸ்
4. தங்க ரதம் வந்தது                 பால முரளி
5. யார் தருவார் இந்த அரியாசனம்          டி எம் எஸ்
6. ராதே உனக்கு கோபம் ஆகாதடி           எம் கே டி
7. ஆடாத மனமும் உண்டோ                  டி எம் எஸ் / எம் எல் வி    
8. பாடறீயேன் படிப்பறியேன்                   சித்ரா
9. க்ருஷ்ணா முகுந்தா முராரெ                   எம் கே டி  
10.எல்லாம் இன்ப மயம்                          எம் எல் வி

1. Amudum thenum etharku                 Sirkazhi

2. Oru naal poduma                          Bala Murali

4. Thanga radham vandhadu                 Bala Murali
5. Yaar tharuvar indha ariyasanam          T.M.S
6. Radhe unakku kobam agaadhadi           M.K.T
7. Aadatha manamum undo                   T.M.S/M.L.V    
8. Paadariyen padippariyen                   Chitra
9. Krishna mukunda murare                   M.K.T  
10.Ellam inba mayam                          M.L.V


3. HINDI FILM SONGS

I have mentioned above my favourite songs in Carnatic music, and Tamil film songs based on Carnatic raga. My Hindi friends may get upset if their songs are ignored. Language has no barrier as far as music is concerned. I like many Hindi songs also. SDBurman, RDBurman, MD. Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Lata, Asha are great composers and singers in Hindi movies. Majruh Sultanpuri, Shahir Ludhianvi are great lyricists like our Kannadasan and Vaali. The songs I enjoy are:

1. Tere mere sapne                      Guide                     Md.Rafi

2. Sou saal pahele                       Jab pyar...               Md.Rafi
3. O mere dil ke chain                   Kati patang               Kishore kumar
4. Mere beegi beegi se                  Anamica                   Kishore kumar
5. Din dhal jaaye haye                   Guide                     Md.Rafi
6. Piya tu ab to aaja                     caravan                   Asha bhonsle
7. Mera jeevan kora kagaz               Kora kagaz               Kishore kumar
8. Dil pukare aare aare                  Jewel thief               Md.Rafi/Lata
9. Mere dil mein aaj kya hai             Daag                      Kishore kumar
10.Jeevan ki bagiya mahkegi             Tere mere sapne         Kishor/Lata
