Favorite Singer(s):

Male- SPB...the second name is not close enough to even merit a mention!
Female- Chitra(absolutely!), Harini(damn-she's married!) and Janaki(few of her solos are too good but i find some not so appealing)
Duets- SPB/Janaki, SPB/Chitra, Unni Krishnan/Harini

Songs that you are most likely to hear me sing or hum (Song - Movie - MD)- (20 songs):

These must probably the ones i frequently sing out loud.
Everytime i sing "Kaadhalin Deepam OndRu", i stop midway to find both my hands inside my pant pockets, invariably! Coincidence is that Rajni has his hands inside his pockets pretty much throughout that song! freak out!!! :P
