fineleg Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Since a lot of recent talk has been on AR Rahman, I just thought I'll have a compilation thread of Ilayaraja songs (the maestro from whom AR Rahman took the throne and now rules) - I'll add to this over time, feel free to add if you know any. I'll also post some from MSV (The king before Ilayaraja) Just a fun song from Kamalhassan movie to start with: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thWEFvUeTPg]YouTube - Sakala kalaa vallavan - Ilamai ithO ithO - Ilaiyaraaja[/ame]
fineleg Posted March 12, 2009 Author Posted March 12, 2009 Rare song where both Kamal and Rajini participate (they only acted together in very few movies) This one is by M.S. VISWANATHAN (the maestro before Ilayaraja) 9RjgxnK50oA

graphic23 Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Pfft. Any Ilayaraja thread is not complete without Geetanjali Om Namaha: BO_SAqnryPA All of Geetanjali songs are amazing. Same with Nayakan.

coffee_rules Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Mani Ratnam's directorial Debut - Pallavi Anupallavi - A Kannada movie with songs from IR. The hero is Anil Kapoor. This was even before Woh Saat Din.. This was how Bangalore was in the 80s.. jzMgMepKSko&feature=related

Ram Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 The combination of Ilaiyaraja, S.P.B and 'Mike' Mohan had some stupendous hits together. Some of these are timeless classics. I am not a big classical music buff, but even then, I cant but marvel at some of these compositions Q9PfCNwKS1Q xdHbhhcodFE PLjGW_P8HZE
Holysmoke Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 [ame= - The Elephunk Theme[/ame] I was feeling left out :P

nikred Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Ilayaraja song collection (Tamil) Pfft. Any Ilayaraja thread is not complete without Geetanjali Om Namaha: BO_SAqnryPA All of Geetanjali songs are amazing. Same with Nayakan. Title say tamil collection not telugu.......FAIL:zoomzoom:
satishg Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 these are some of my favorites from IR [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlJBzOKTblU]YouTube - Punnagai mannan - Enna saththam - Ilaiyaraaja[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAmYAKFWaWM&feature=related]YouTube - Kalyaana Maalai Kondadum[/ame] [ame= - Poove Sempoove[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJhLSqBl7o4]YouTube - Yethethoh Ennam From Punnagai Mannan.flv[/ame]
graphic23 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Meh. A lot of great Ilayaraja's songs are composed in Telugu.
fineleg Posted March 13, 2009 Author Posted March 13, 2009 Pls post Telugu, Malayalam, Hindi , kannada...other songs as long as they are composed by Ilayaraja. Title should not really say Tamil - I did not post that on the title, specifically because Ilayaraja has composed songs in many languages. That part of the title was added by someone else perhaps to identify the thread. So, yeah - post telugu songs.
Holysmoke Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I'm sorry, I posted that in the title. I thought it would give a better idea about the thread since I for one had no idea about this guy. I admit I had no idea he had songs in other languages. Didnt think it would be such a big deal.
nikred Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I first heard this as some rap song later i searched for the original and found this awesome video:hysterical: PucI_AZLaA0
fineleg Posted March 13, 2009 Author Posted March 13, 2009 nikred, ^ The above is a great song - the rap came much later, the original is classy. Ofcourse the video is cra.p - but the music is great.
