Malayalam Songs List [best] — 1980 To 1990

The decade from 1980 to 1990 in Malayalam cinema was a magical period. While the previous decades laid the foundation, the '80s saw the rise of legendary music directors like K. J. Yesudas (as a singer-composer in rare cases), but primarily M. G. Radhakrishnan , Shyam , Raveendran , Johnson , Bombay Ravi , and G. Devarajan (continuing from the 70s). The lyricists — Vayalar Ramavarma , O. N. V. Kurup , Bichu Thirumala , Sreekumaran Thampi , Poovachal Khader — wrote poetry that remains timeless.
