Ömer Faruk Tekbilek - İstanbul

So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks .......

Just listen to the song of They Might be Giants - Istanbul....
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night

Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople
So if you've a date in Constantinople
She'll be waiting in Istanbul

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way

Istanbul dünyanin en güzel sehri (bence).
Müzikte harika

it has been ISTANBUL since 1453. I am not saying so, the history says so. I think people should get pass that the Ottoman Empire ended the eastern Roman Empire by conquerring Constantinopolis and after that eventhough the Ottomans lost in world war 1, this time Mustafa Kemal Ataturk did not leave Istanbul to the invaders; by winning the indepence war Istanbul remained being a metropolis of Turks as Smyrna and many other cities did.

No Konstantinopolis İSTANBUL Since 1453

Lets get one thing right~ Its ISTANBUL since 1453-

Konstantinopolis not Istanbul for instance

Konstantinopolismi kaldi evladim, hangi asirda yasiyorsunuz yaa!?!?! Istanbul burasi ISTANBUUUUUUUUL.

Constantinoupolis.
Instanbul is also a greek word. Is tin poli (to the city).
Excellent music. Omar Faruk Tekbilek is very famous in Greece.

Başka her yer bana yabancı,ben başka her yerde yabancı.
Öyle bir sinmiş ki kokusu üzerime,öyle bir yerleşmiş ki içime....

Mükemmel, İstanbul'u sözler olmadan anlatmayı başarmış..

Excellent, he's achieved to tell Istanbul without words..
