MGR Hit Song - 1975
This is a hit song from the movie Pallaandu Vaazhga starring MGR, Latha, M N Nambiyar, P S Veerappa, V K Ramasami, R S Manohar, Thengai Srinivasan and others. This movie was released in 1975 just two years before MGR made history in Tamil Nadu. There is a stanza in this song which says Tomorrow History might be Created by us! He did exactly that! These visionary lyrics were penned not by Vaali as one would suppose it to have been but by the famous lyricist Pulamaipithan who started his film career with the MGR Movie Kudiyiruntha Koil. Amazingly he has recently written a song for the 2014 movie Arima Nambi, starring Sivaji's Grand Son, 50 years after beginning his career!. The Thirukkural bit which is originally in the beginning of this song which makes it more classy is sadly missing in this clip. Music - K V Mahadevan.

A Tribute to Hard Working Farmers - MGR Hits
This is a hit song from the movie Vivasaayi starring MGR, KR Vijaya, Nagesh, VK Ramasami and others. This movie released in 1968 was directed by MA Thirumugam. The music for the movie had been composed by KV Mahadevan. The movie was produced by Devar Films. The song has been sung by TMS and the words (lyrics) of this timeless classic, which are arguably the best tribute anyone can ever pay to the hard working farmers who feed the world, have been penned by A Maruthakasi. One can't imagine what will happen to the world if these farmers of the world were to take a six month break from their job! Every currency in the world will probably crash! Spare a thought for the farmers and enjoy the song!
