...And also year of release please.

Ena Santham
Panivzhum Malar
Valaiyosai Kalakala

Thanks!

I guess you mean "Enna Satham" from Punnagai Mannan (1986)



Ninaivellam Nithya (1982)



Sathya (1988). This song features Lata Mangeshkar singing in Tamil.

could it be same song, that ilaya gave for lajja...

DragunR2 - many thanks for your prompt help with this, much appreciated!

No! Valai osai is an up beat foot tapping number. It's brilliant!


Tee, how did you come up with this specific list?

Hi Yuvan,

A friend really liked the songs of Cheeni Kum and asked me about the composer, who is he, is it someone new etc. I wanted to provide her with an proper introduction to Raja and compiled a list of songs that I think listeners are more likely to instantly appreciate rather than something that takes time to grow on you.

For info, this is what I put together:

(1982) Ilanyila
(1982) Ninaivellam Nithya
(1983) Kannae Kalamaanae
(1983) Thakita Thakita
(1985) Sangeetha Megham
(1986) Mannaratam Vantha
(1986) Panvizhum Iravu
(1986) Yenna Satham
(1987) Niladdu
(1987) Tenpadi Seemaiyele
(1988) Valaiyosi Kalakala
(1989) Cheppalas Vundi
(1989) Ninnu Kori
(1991) Rakkamma

Let me know if you are aware of any other songs that might make better alternatives and be more accessible to new Raja listeners.
