When Tarkan's New Album Will Be Released

2009-07-08T03:14:00.004+03:00

Turkish Mega Pop Star Tarkan will release his new album soon. He's now in latest work for this album. All Turkish music singers published their albums in the beginnings of summer of 2009. Kenan Dogulu, Yalin, Sezen Aksu, Hadise, Murat Boz, Sertab Erener and many other Turkish stars already made their albums and they are on the ways of the country for their summer concerts. Kenan Dogulu began his concert tour countrywide with Rap star Ceza for the festivals of youth. This festivals sponsored by Fanta.

Tarkan didn't make his album in this crowd. Everybody supposed an album from Tarkan in June or July. Because in Turkey it's a tradition to release music albums in beginning of summer. Turkish people generally go to summertime homes in touristic regions for 3 - 4 monts in summer and they like to listen Turkish music albums there.

Tarkan introduced a new singer to the music audience in June. The new Turkish pop star's name is Emir. Tarkan is one of the composers and lyric writers of Emir. Tarkan is also co-producer of the album "Ben Sen Olamam".

It's expected that Tarkan's new album will be released in late summer of 2009. It will be in Turkish language and probably release only in Turkey. Its name and song list are not known by this time. Turkish fans wait and hope an album like Tarkan's old classic Turkish music style in 1990s. Tarkan's Turkish fans generally didn't like so much his latest music style.

This time Tarkan fans expect a great success for this album and wait new fresh hits.

Emir or Tarkan - Ben Sen Olamam

Turkish Mega Star Tarkan prepares his new album for late summer of 2009. It will be a Turkish album and will be released in Turkey.

In the beginning of 2009 summer Tarkan produced an album for new pop star Emir and introduced this young talent to music audience. Tarkan supported Turkey's new star Emir by his music and lyrics and he's also co-producer of this new album. Moreover, Emir is nearly Tarkan's himself.

View Tarkan's latest project EMIR!

You'll be amazed and enjoy Emir if you love Tarkan.

Emir's album name is "Ben Sen Olamam". It's a little bit funny and genious name. Because it means "I can't be you" in English.

Tarkan Before and After Sezen Aksu

2008-01-26T02:24:00.000+02:00

Before and After Sezen:
The wind of A-Acayipsin was so powerful that it carried its effects till 1997 when he released his song Ölürüm Sana ( I’d Die For You). Of course, the help of Sezen stil went on. Şımarık (Spoilt) was a blowout. His albums broke records. We said that it was the magic stick of Sezen but was it right? Because it is actually Tarkan who gave power to every one with whom he worked. After quitting work with Sezen, there was no failure in his music. Because in 2001, Tarkan catched the soul of his time once again. He gave his album Karma as a gift to the tired people. And he suggested a philosophy: Whatever you do, it will turn back to you. This time he used finger cymbal while dancing. It was so aesthetic that everybody admired him. His companion in that album was Nazan Öncel. She became another woman after working with Tarkan. For instance, she was seemed as the rival of Sezen…Year was 2003 and again there was Nazan Öncel…The song was Dudu Dudu (Woman)…We didn’t mention but that time he was also giving great concerts in Europe and he began to a fame among Europe. Though the expected English album Bounce couldn’t be very successful, the music critics liked it.

At last, Tarkan appeared with his latest album. Metamorphosis. It is a transformation from the youth to the adulthood. This time, there is no companions like Nazan or Sezen. All the lyrics and compositions were made by Tarkan. Now, there is not a man who destroys all the taboos. He wears a gray suit, he has a beard and he looks in a mannish way. There are some people who says the new year program was a failure. It does not matter, he is sucesfull at making people’s mind busy with him, even they like him or not. Tarkan is not the old Tarkan. In the airport, when some paparazzis asked him questions about the gossips, he used to smile and go on his way. But now, he is not in that way. He says whatever he thinks, if he is angry he shows his anger to the people around him. And his words are bitter. When we look at his lyrics, we see that he has prepared his answers to the ones who will criticize him: “ Don’t talk in vain / Don’t make me angry/Just confess and accept it/Come on, don’t put me out of patience.”

Tried to create a tough guy image from the soul of Time:
He has been discussed for 15 years. Of course in the socio-politic situation which created him, there were coalition government which was totally liberal and turned their faces to Europe. He was much more European than any of us. He was our pride. Now, there is a conservative and some nationalist life style among the people. There is nothing as metrosexual nowadays. I met with the game of destiny very early, I grew up suddenly/ Now my childhood days are lost.” By these words he stil protects the sensitive side of his soul but also by these lyrics, “ Let’s account for our rights/ Let’s be United and fight / Come on let’s tell our revolt.”, he tries to create a tough guy image from himself or the soul of his time. He again tried to catch his time. And we know that he always catchs his time and he is always successful.

Tarkan He Has His Own Secret

2008-01-26T02:23:00.000+02:00

He Has His Own Secret:
However, don’t think that he had totally a perfect and peaceful childhood. He had to put up with the wild yellings of “Turken Raus !” ( Turkish, Go Away). But he was successful at living between these two cultures. Even in his childhood, he was aware of the problem of racism, thus he didn’t feel himself as worthless.

The feeling of homesick came to his life when his father decided to return to Turkey in 1987. Their new life began in Karamürsel, a small town of İstanbul. And this is a real problem for Tarkan. He used to live in Europe, neverthless, the town he moved to was really conservative. He was not familiar with such obligations as wearing a tie and being short haired in the school. His introversion appeared there. Although during his older ages he could be adapted to everything around him, at that time in Karamürsel, his loneliness began. How can we know this? Because we looked at every piece of writing about Tarkan and we saw that nobody could touch his soul. If anybody thought that he could have done it, this was just a trick of Tarkan. From his Karamürsel days, he has been an opinion as the best friend of him is himself. And in his every album, there is another concept, moreover he is successful at drawing borders around his life. He has the secret of keeping the title of “star, megastar, ultrastar, etc” and we are sure that he will keep this secret to himself till his death. Anything in this Tarkan phenomenon which we think that we have solved it is the tricks of Tarkan in order to cover his soul. This is a success. For almost 15 years, we have been talking and writing about him, this is a real success.

He is Bewitching:
Let’s go on. If music is life for our soul, then it is very normal for a man who was standing between two cultures to take shelter in music. Moreover, he began to his career by singing Classic Turkish Music which was a success since it was really hard to sing that kind of music. First he went to Karamürsel Classic turkish music association, then he went on his education in Üsküdar. And his feeling of loneliness helped him to achieve a success at singing classic turkish music. But he was young and at that time it was Özal’s political period which was totally liberal. He was talented but his family didn’t have enough financial situation to give a hand for his career. Moreover, there was a rush of pop music and there were a lot of new singers such as Hakan Peker, Yonca Evcimik, Burak Kut, Aşkın Nur Yengi and Ozan Orhon. Many young singers tried their chance in this rush of pop music. As Mazhar Alanson said with his bewitching style, Tarkan was better than all of the rest. Who cares about his short height?

The country was slowly chancing itself after the coup of 80 and it began to create its stars again. At that time, proverbs proved their reality: If one’s front teeth are apart, he becomes rich and How you welcome the new year, the rest of the year will be like that…The new year night of 1992, our country met with Tarkan on a television program. He appeared with his bewitching green eyes, a weird costume and his first song Kıl Oldum Abi (I am Irritated). Don’t think that the name of the song was created by him. In that period there were such slang names in all the songs. And, catching the soul of his time is a success for a star and that was what Tarkan always did.

Although that album didn’t break records as the other ones did, it was enough for him to be a star. There were ones who hated him, and the ones who loved him. He gradually became rich. On a cold new year night we met him, and he has been in our lives for 15 years. Even we are angry at him, or we dream of having a signature of him, he is always in our lives.

Moss Mask For Men:
His real blowout was in 1994. Sezen Aksu decided to work with him and Tarkan’s hit song A-acayipsin (You Are Weird) appeared in the music market. Again, he presented his songs on a television program. This time, he was on Cem Özer’s talk show. His hair was short and he was dressed in an attractive and simple way. The album’s first clip “Unutmamalı” ( You Musn’t Forget) was on the channels. This time we could sense the talent of Tarkan in classic turkish music. On the talk show, they talked about romanticism. And people found the new men image for that period. An image who could do anything for his lover but also carried a sensitive heart. And the legend of Tarkan gave its start. When there was no word as metrosexualism, he stepped in our lives as a metrosexual image. First, his audience was full of with girls but later his fans became mixed. Man, woman, young girls, working class, society, etc. Moreover, he destroyed the world of smashing guys. Suddenly, men began to wear earrings. In İstanbul and every corner of the city, barbers put a signboard on their doors:” We have a moss mask for your faces.” Men transformed to a metrosexual image.

Metamorfoz Album Critics

2008-01-26T02:20:00.000+02:00

It will be understood in the course of time:
Aşkın Nur Yengi, musician
I like his voice very much. And I think that his album will be understood in the course of time. A song will be meaningful if it matches with the story of a listener. And it takes time.He is a person who hides the exotic smell of the Mediterrian in his soul. It is not easy to meet with approval by such a legend as Ahmet Ertegün.

His credit cannot be failed:
Yaşar
He is the first and only star who passed beyond the borders of our Turkish music. He is the first Turkish pop icon who could sell his albums around the whole Europe and give concerts to a large audience. Also, he is the owner of all the records which had done in his area. Though his latest two albums were not as good as the other ones, after all these successes, his credit cannot be failed.

He is the fashion of the year:
Erkan Ozarman, organizer
I haven’t listened to his album yet but I have seen such men who are attcking him by saying “My album is better than his”. Look at the fashion magazines, he is the fashion of the year. And there is not a rule that everybody listens to every album. Moreover, all the lyrics and compositions belong to him. This is a courage. Congratulations. But I wish he had a much more professional team around him. I know his menager Uygar. He is smart and gentleman. But being a menager and being an organizer are different situations.

If Ortaç or Sandal did it, we would say that it was good:
Naim Dilmener, music writer
I don’t know how a personality he has and I don’t need to know. But as he is presented, he does everything perfect. He is like a brave rowdy boy. We are criticising this image, maybe some of doesn’t like it but he seems convincing in that suit and shirt, he may even have a gsm on his hand or a rosary. Don’t think that I’m against this album. If somebody did this album, we would say it was a good job. It is a well-organized album. And Ozan Çolakoğlu’s contribution is crucial. But if it is Tarkan, then we say “ No, Not Good.” It’s not just the high expectation of us. He always surpass himself with the other album. If Serdar Ortaç or Mustafa Sandal did this album, we would say that it was good. But Tarkan should have done something different in 2008.

The ones who don’t like it will be amused:
Hakan Eren, supervisor
Although he didn’t do a different album as it was expected, it is a nice one. Its sound is not new, but it matchs with Tarkan. He likes dilemma in lyrics, he has to change this style. He uses the way of choosing proverbs. He might have worked with Sezen Aksu, this would be better. If we think that hip-hop and R&B are popular throughout the world, that is normal to use this sounds with fiddle and tomtom since this album was mad efor Turkish people. I’m sure that once people appropriate these songs, they will have other versions. You will like his songs by listening to them over and over again. And we will see that the ones who don’t like his songs will be amused by them after some time.

Not Tarkan’s but pop music’s period has finished:
Zeki Coşkun, journalist of Radikal
Metamorphosis signs a transformation in both Tarkan’s and Turkish pop music’s history. There is no new or special event. Also, it is not right to mention about a downfall. Tarkan is the same Tarkan, music is the same music. Everything as usual as it was like he said in his first song Hop Hop: “ Always the same story/ Everything is the same”. What were people expecting so much that now they are talking about a disappointment? Answer: The problem is that pop music’s period has finished.

I wish he sang classic Turkish music
Fikret Şenes, lyric writer
His voice is great. But how can a song be as “Babbler”? I don’t like the name of the album. Metamorphosis. It recalls the tail of a lizard. Actually, once I didn’t like the name of the song “ Don’t Forget”(Unutmamalı), since such suffixes in Turkish does not sound good. I wish he song in classic Turkish music.

Metrosexual image leaves its place to strong man image:
Deniz Durukan, lyric writer
Metamorphosis symbols transformation and the wish for a change. Years ago, Tarkan appeared as a unisex image. The sensitive and metrosexual men image in the middle of the 90s left its place to a much more strong and bossy image. Men wants to regain their old image which belongs to them. Of course, this change is related to the period’s political view. Every period creates its own politic star. Tarkan is a clever man. He realizes the demand of this period. All in all, he is always successful to make people talk about himself. Yesterday, while we were talking about metrosexual men, today we are making comments on the chancing the profile of men over the image of Tarkan.

They will lay out Tarkan:
Fikri Nazif Ayyıldız, the old publishing director of Nokta Magazine
Tarkan broke a taboo! He used his body as show material like his colleagues in America and Europe. Moreover, he did it in such a sytlish and aesthetic way. After climbing up the stairs of fame, he learned to look at in a meaningful way which confused women’s mind. In his concerts, there were hysteris crisised among women. So we put him on our cover since he became a phenomenon because of having a successful psychological bond with all the people. 13 years passed but Tarkan is stil very handsome, dynamic and he is stil searching for himself. But the country which he came in 90s is not the same country now. City dwellers are going away. Villagers invaded to the city and they gradually exuded to the life of city dwellers. They began to make their own music with a language we had difficulty to understand. Among these styles, Tarkan seems weird. He seems to me like an old and sad image.

If being abroad means to be far away from your homeland, then Tarkan is not an expatriate from the beginning of his life. Though he is a child of a family who migrates from Rize to Germany, he opens his eyes to life in a town called Alzey which is located to Frankfurt. The country which is a foreign land for his family means his birth place for Tarkan. Although it is located to an European city, Tarkan’s birth place is just a town and like every artist, he has a fragile heart which carries the feeling of homesick. That’s why maybe he writes these lyrics in the song Ragged (Pare Pare): “ I met with the game of destiny very early, I grew up suddenly/ Now my childhood days are lost.” Actually these sentences tell us a lot of things!

He is the fifth of six children. It is his luck that his family is not conservative. His family could orientate themselves in Germay. He studied in German schools till he was 14 years old. He was growing up by acquiring these two cultures. In his teenage years, he listened to Ibrahim Tatlıses. Dom Dom Kurşunu was the first song folk song he listened to. And after that he began to listen to Zeki Müren. Lastly, he met with the songs of Sezen Aksu who would be his queen. Moreover, we should add to this music list the punk music which was effective during the 80s. In order to understand the “music world” of Tarkan, you should look at this list. Before remembering the first stage performance on the New Year of 1992, you should look at these mixed cultural effects upon his music.

Tarkan Metamorfoz Critics

2008-01-26T02:19:00.001+02:00

What Do The New Singers Think?

Hepsi:
The difficulty of being Tarkan is that you should do such works which satisfy everybody. Once, there was only one Tarkan. Now, in every album there is another Tarkan. It is very hard to be unique and still being Tarkan. Maybe that’s why he has to run away from Tarkan but not by running away from himself.

Betul Demir:
I’m glad that his album was released before mine since it has lightened me up. I am very proud with him, I will sing megastar Tarkan’S new songs in my concerts in Europe.

Yigit Giray:
Honestly, as a Tarkan listener, I am disappointed. If somebody released this album, we would say that it was great but if it is Tarkan, then, everybody hoped for an exaggurated and different work.

Sami:
I don’t like the album. I believe that magazine world exaggurated Tarkan. It is a bad album, unsuccessful work, not a suitable image, a weird stage performance…I couldn’t understand what he had done for all those years in America.

Elif Turan:
It is absolutely wrong to criticise a musician who has been struggling to improve his music, a person who has a popular vision and a singer who made a name in Europe. It is a good album.

Ozgun:
It is true that he has changed a lot and we haven’t listened to a popular Tarkan song for a long time. I listened to the album more than one time.In order to criticise an album, you should listen to it over and over again. I like Tarkan’s songs by listening to them more than once. There are such songs that they can catch me in the course of time.

Tarkan Dedikodu Bam Teli Gu n Gibi Cat Kapi

2008-01-26T02:16:00.000+02:00

Dedikodu (Gossip)
When there were gossips about me, I wrote this song. It is against to prejudice. The lover which I mentioned in the song is my listener. Gossip is my calling out to them. Throughout those years, a lot of things were written about me. I invite people who are affected by those news to believe in me. Actually, this is a song which condemns prejudice and gossip.

Sometimes the right thing is to be silent

Bam Teli (Don’t Get On My Nerves)
This song is about the games played in personal relationships. Games which I have witnessed around me. Games which always end with unhappiness. I tried to explain that we could break hearts by a sudden anger. I believe that in the relationships, people shouldn’t blame on each other. Otherwise, you may fall down in an endless well and you may become tired while searching who is right or wrong. It is a song which tells you that sometimes the best thing is trying to understand the other one and being silent.

There are few songs which thank the lover

Gün Gibi (Like a Day Light)
When I analyzed the love songs I knew, I realized that there are few songs which thank the lover. I explain that love is my saviour. Like a day light. It is the song of happiness of the nightingale which comes together with the rose.

The conflict which I have in my soul

Çat Kapı (Suddenly)
This is a song for people who have infirmity for love. I explain that I am unprotected while I am in love. This is the conflict which I have in my soul. When you vow not to love again, you suddenly find yourself in another love…That’s what this song tries to tell us…

I wanted this to be remembered

Pare Pare (Ragged)
In this song, I wanted to open my heart honestly to my listeners. I wanted to share my soul which sometimes is seen different from the outside. Like me, every body has his own story. And I always think that we shouldn’t be prejudiced. Because every one seems different from outside.

Tarkan Vay Anam Vay Dilli Duduk Arada Bir

2008-01-26T02:11:00.000+02:00

He Has to Run Away From Tarkan, But Not by Running Away From Himself

He had been discussed for a long time because of his first song “ Kıl Oldum” (I am irritated); while people didn’t know the meaning of a metrosexuel, his image by A-acayipsin ( You Are Weird) let young men to give a shape to their eyebrows. He was seen as a traitor because he went to the army late; once he had to pee and that was another long discussion on televisions. He destroyed the serious image of men by using finger cymbal and dancing with them. He conquered the Europe with that album. And now, he caught the dignified and dark soul of the time and he has a totally new image. Those who like him and the ones who hate him, also musicians, journalists, composers an deven “himself” tell us about Tarkan. This a portrait of Tarkan…

The song which changed the route of the album.

Vay Anam Vay (Oh My God)
While I was concerning with the production of another song, suddenly I left it and began to write a new song. After two hours, the composition of Oh My God was ready. Ozan and I looked at each other. If I hadn’t listened to my iner voice, this song wouldn’t have been in the album. It is an important song since it changed the route of the album and drew the destiny of Metamorphosis. It has a different and new sound. After this song, we went through all the other songs and the ones who didn’t suit with the sound of this song were canceled, and finally the album gained its shape.

They made me really angry

Dilli Düdük ( Babbler)
I wrote this song one and a half year before when people tried to offend and hurt me. Also, at the same time I saw that one of my dearest colleague had the same situation and I was really mad. I just took my paper and pencil, then began to write. I wrote this song for people who had prejudice and liked to attack people and break their hearts. This is my answer to all the babblers.

I confess !..

Arada Bir (Sometimes)
It is a song of self-criticism. I tried to explain and confess that sometimes I am defeated by the tricks of relationships. A person always defends himself, I mean, at the beginning you always see yourself right. And he is selfish and prejudiced in order to show himself as right. But as soon as he sits down and begins to think clearly, he sees his fault and he is ashamed. That’s the feeling which made met o write this song.

A temporary seperation let me write this song

İstanbul Ağlıyor (İstanbul Is Crying)
The reason for writing this song is the temporary seperation during my relationship. However, later I adapted the song to ones who are seperated from each other. Seperation is a common feeling among people and it really hurts all of us. I just wanted to console people who have a seperation.

Political regimes are in vain

Hop Hop
I didn’t write this song to a specific politican or political party. It is just my general comment. Actually, this song is about human rights. It is a song that I wrote for distorted systems around the world which I also witnessed. It tells that politicians do everything in the name of the benefits of their countries regardless of the human rights. If we look at the present situation of the world, we see that the political systems that people created are in vain. There are wars, poverty, starvation, illnesses, global warming, etc.

It is not possible yo say that the leaders have a right policy. I inivite them to listen to Hop Hop bu heart…

I believe that the world leaders can put up with all these situations with love and peace. It is a song that tells us to become one in the name of humanity, regardless of religion and language.

Istanbul Ağlıyor Lyrics

2007-12-27T23:58:00.000+02:00

Sen gideli buralardan
Yolunu gözlemekteyim
İstanbul ağlıyor
Yastayım sevgilim

Hala seninim, delinim
Bıraktığın gibiyim
Çıkmaz sokaklarında kayıp
Derbeder haldeyiim

Sen gideli bu aşktan
Kalbimle harpteyim
Yokluğun ölümden beter
Buz tuttu yüreğim

Hala seninim, delinim
Bıraktığın gibiyim
Çıkmaz sokaklarında kayıp
Derbeder haldeyiim

Sen gideli bu şehirden
Ötmez oldu bülbüller
Doğmadı güneşim batalı
Açmaz oldu güller

Hala seninim, delinim
Bıraktığın gibiyim
Çıkmaz sokaklarında kayıp
Derbeder haldeyiim

Unutmadım, unutamadım
Dinmedi fırtınam içimde
Başucumdaki resmin
Duruyor aynı yerinde

Hala seninim, delinim
Bıraktığın gibiyim
Çıkmaz sokaklarında kayıp
Derbeder haldeyiim

Metamorfoz - Arada Bir Lyrics

2007-12-27T23:56:00.000+02:00

Kıyamam, ağlama
Karaları bağlama
Geçer bu da geçer
Umuduna darılma

İnsanız, arada bir
Dengemiz şaşabilir
Akıl başa dönünce
Yine sevgiyle eğilir

Arada bi ben de
Kadere küsüyorum
Esip savurup
Mangalda kül bırakmıyorum

Arada bi bile bile
Aşkı üzüyorum
Yeniliyorum kendime
Kabul ediyorum

Yanıyorum dostlar
Şu sıralar efkarım var
İçimde mahzun şimdi
Hüzünlü, acılı şarkılar

Bir damlayım okyanusunda
Kum tanesiyim kıyında
Unutma ki bu gönül
Divanen aslında

İnsanız, arada bir
Dengemiz şaşabilir
Akıl başa dönünce
Yine sevgiyle eğilir

Metamorfoz - Dilli Düdük Lyrics

2007-12-27T23:54:00.000+02:00

Söz gümüşse, sükut altındır
Masal okuyor, bilmiyor o zırdeli
Rüzgar eken, fırtına biçer
Kendi düşen ağlamaz yani

Sen sen ol, kalp kırma
Uykuların kaçar sonra
Akıllı ol, oyuna gelme
Tepetakla olursun
Eden bulur sonunda

Pireyi deve yaptı dilli düdük
Ateşe bile bile körükle gidiyor
Kendi kuyusunu kazıyor enayi
Cır cır ötüyor

Bana göre hava hoş, kendi bilir
Beni bilen iyi biliyor
Boşa çabaları
Bu gönüllerde hükmü geçmiyor

Hadi sev, hadi hadi hadi gözünü karart da
Koy elini kalbine şu yalan hayatta
Gelen geçer, konan göçer unutma
Sana da kalmaz bu ölümlü dünya

Şöyle bir silkelen de gel kendine
Hududunu haddini bil, ileri gitme
İki kere iki dört, hesap kolay
Aç kalbini gel, dırdır etme

Caka satıyor, utanması yok
O kendini üstün buluyor ama yanılıyor
Burnu kafdağında mübarek
O kendini bu alemin kralı sanıyor

2007-12-27T23:49:00.000+02:00

Sorma
Derdin nedir diye sorma
Gel gör, halimi gör de anla
Azar azar içim
Yanar durur o biçim
Öl dese ölürüm onun için
Çok seviyorum, hem de çok
Tam kalbime geldi ok
Delisiyim o canına yandığımın
Vurgunuyum haberi yok
Vay anam vay halime!
Vay anam vay
Dışı eli yakar içi beni
Dile kolay
Söndü havam fiyakam
Menziline gireli
Şimdi sabahı zor ediyorum geceleri
Azar azar içim
Yanar durur o biçim
Öl dese ölürüm onun için
Çok seviyorum, hem de çok
Tam kalbime geldi ok
Delisiyim o canına yandığımın
Vurgunuyum haberi yok
Yok derdime çare yok
Tam kalbime geldi ok
Kölesiyim o canına yandığımın
Vurgunuyum, haberi yok
Vay anam vay halime!
Van anam vay!

LOVE SPEAK

Don't speak, you're beautiful
Don't say a word at all
Look at me, I hear your voice in my head like a song in an hall
I wanna see, are you the one for all time skin next to mine
Am I lost in a dream ?
Do you really wanna let us slip away ?
If you say it, do you mean it ?
If you feel it, let me see it !
If you want me now, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
When you dance with your heart in motion
You pull me in just a little closer
Don't say a word, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
Ohhhhohhhuuu
Why be so afraid of the silence ? ssshhh
All the day with the beats in your hair, what you don't say
Sets me feel like flames of the fire
Like heat gettin' higher
Talk to me with your eyes so that I can believe
Show me love deeper than words ... ooohhhh
If you say it, do you mean it ?
If you feel it, let me see it !
If you want me now, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
When you dance with your heart in motion
You pull me in just a little closer
Don't say a word, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
If you say it, do you mean it ?
If you feel it, let me see it !
If you want me now, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
When you dance with your heart in motion
You pull me in just a little closer
Don't say a word, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
Don't say a word ... ohhohh
Let me feel it
You can't conceal it, if the connection's deep
Uuuhhh, if this is meant to be
Then you'll have to speak
If you say it (Ooohhh)
If you feel it
If you want me now, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
When you dance with your heart in motion
You pull me in just a little closer
Don't say a word, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst
If you say it, do you mean it ?
If you feel it, let me see it !
If you want me, if you feel it, love speak ... Sisst
When you dance with your heart in motion
You pull me in just a little closer
Don't say a word, I wanna hear love speak ... Sisst

Tarkan Dudu Lyrics

2007-12-18T02:00:00.000+02:00

DUDU

Ağlamadan ayrılık olmaz
Hatıralar uslu durmaz
Kalanlar gideni gönlünde taşır
Aşk sevene yük olmaz
Biz böyle bilir böyle yaşarız
Ooo da biliyor
Ooo da seviyor
Ooo
Bile bile kafa tutuyor aşka gözü kara
O yine bildiğini okuyor
Çiçek gibi tazecik
Kıymeti bi tanecik
Ana sütü gibi tertemiz
Dudu dudu dilleri
Lıkır lıkır içmeli
Gözleri derya deniz
Bu gönül ona torpil geçiyor
Etrafında fır dönüyor
El bebek gül bebektir o
Ne yapsa inadına hoş görüyor
Kara kara düşündürüyor
Ooo onun da içi gidiyor
Ooo da tasalanıyor
Ooo
Bile bile kafa tutuyor aşka gözü kara
O yine bildiğini okuyor
Sen güldüğüme bakma
Gör de duy da inanma
Tuz buz oldu bu kalp ah on bin parça
Aldığın her nefeste
Attığın her adımda burda olsa
Cancağızım yanımda olsa
Ata ata dertleri hep içime attım
İnsan gibi yaşamak benim de hakkım
İçimdeki zemberek kırıldı artık
Tamiri mümkün değilse işte o gün yandık
Her gün yağmur yağabilir
İnsan hata yapabilir
Birbirimize tutunursak
Belki güneş doğabilir

BU ŞARKILAR DA OLMASA

Biraz param vardı bitti
Dün bir işim vardı bugün yok
Bi sevgilim vardı çekti gitti
Bizde şans ne gezer
Param kalmadı
İşim gücüm yok
Sevgilim yok
Yok oğlu yok yok yok
Bu şarkılar da olmasa
Arkadaşlarım aramasa
N'apardım kimbilir?
Durmazdım bir dakika
Parçalı bulutluyum
Ama hala umutluyum
Dünya gözümden düştü
Bu kadar acı bana yeter
Ben hassas adamım yıkılırım işte
İçime dert olur
Giden gidene of

GÜLÜMSE KADERİNE

Değer mi hiç
Boş yere küsme düşlerine
İnan, O'nun da yanına kalmaz
Bırak gitsin üzülme
Hayat sevenlerin yanındadır
Unutma
Gülümse kaderine
Yak bütün fotoğrafları
O'na ait bütün eşyaları
Bu gece ümitlerini al koynuna
Gün doğmadan unut insafsızı
Kader buluşturdu
Kader ayırdı
O aşka inanmadı
Sil gözyaşlarını
Sakın ağlama
O kalbinle oynadı
Hayat sevenleri korur
Ateşe atmaz
Gülüm, Sana kıyamadı
Yak bütün fotoğrafları
O'na ait bütün eşyaları
Bu gece ümitlerini al koynuna
Gün doğmadan unut insafsızı

SORMA KALBİM

Sen önce tanı bil kendini
Sarıl da kalbine
Sonra beni sev dedi
Hepimiz yalnınız bu yolda
Hayat denilen oyunda
Önce seni sonra beni bul dedi
Kırılma
Yapma kalbim
Darılma
Nedeni var herşeyin
Suçlu sorumlu arama
Sorma, sorma kalbim sorma
Bilirsin sen aslında
Yok ki kaybeden aşkta
İçime süzülür gizlice mahsun gözyaşlarım
Sessiz kalırım haklı gidişine
Dedi ki yalnızız bu yolda
Ömür denilen rüyada
Sen, sen ol tutsak etme aşkı zamana
Kırılma, yapma kalbim

UZUN İNCE BİR YOLDAYIM

Uzun ince bir yoldayım
Gidiyorum gündüz gece
Bilmiyorum ne haldeyim
Gidiyorum gündüz gece
Dünyaya geldiğim anda
Yürüdüm aynı zamanda
İki kapılı bir handa
Gidiyorum gündüz gece
Düşünülürse derince
Uzak gözükür görünce
Yol bir dakka miktarınca
Gidiyorum gündüz gece
Şaşar Veysel işbu hale
Gah ağlayan gahi güle
Yetişmek için menzile
Gidiyorum gündüz gece

Tarkan Karma Lyrics

2007-12-18T01:52:00.000+02:00

AŞK

Yıllar yılı gülmedi yüzüm
Buralara doğmadı güneş
Ben hep güzüm
Baş edemedim
Ben aşksız edemedim
Medet umdum hep fani para puldan
Anladım yalan dünya malı
Yalnız edemedim
Ben aşksız edemedim
Hey!
Ama seni gördüm göreli
Ateşine düştüm düşeli
Gün doğdu sabahlarıma hey!
Seni gördüm göreli
Gözlerimiz sevişeli
Gün doğdu rüyalarıma
Sen o bildiğim bütün aşk bahçelerinin
En nadide çiçeğisin
Ta ilk bakışta vurdun mühürü kalbime
Sen ezelden vazgeçilmezimsin

AY

Ah! Bir bilse
Ne adaklar adadım aşkına
Soldu renklerim, eskidim uğruna
Gökyüzüne yazdım adını
Binlerce yıldızla
Aldırmadı gülüp geçti çağrıma
Göze aldım, dağları deldim
Çölleri denizleri aştım geldim
Ah nafile, bakmadı gözyaşıma
Ay! Ay kahroldum
Düşe kalka peşinde maskara oldum
Ay! Ay unutuldum
Karda kışta kurda kuşa yem oldum
Yanarım sana emeklerime yanarım
Ah! Yanarım
Ne fayda! Dönüşü yok
Yazık! Uçtu gitti yıllarım
Ne çıkar şimdi dönsen ahh
Kalmadı ki tadım
Kimine göre deli divane
Kimine göre avareyim avare
Elimi gözümü bağladı kaderim
Ellerinde biçareyim biçare

KUZU KUZU

Bak! Kırıldı kolum kanadım
Olmadı, tutunamadım
Zor! Yokluğun çok zor
Alışamadım
Vur, vur bu akılsız başı
Duvarlara, taşlara vur sevabına
Sonra affet, gel bas bağrına
Süzüldüm, eridim sensiz olamadım
İşte kuzu kuzu geldim
Dilediğince kapandım dizlerine
Bu kez, gururumu ateşe verdim
Yaktım da geldim
İster at, ister öp beni
Ama önce dinle bak gözlerime
İnan, bu defa
Anladım durumu (bil), tövbeler ettim
Ooofff oooofff
Acı biberler sür dilime dudaklarıma

GİTTİ GİDELİ

Vazgeç, direnme kalbim
Vazgeç, bekleme
Sesini duyan yok,
Boşa sitem etme
Unut onun gibi, unut sen de
Kaç kez denedim; seni silmeyi bir kalemde
Ne çare
Kaç kez öldüm o uykusuz gecelerde
Anılarla avundum senelerce
Hep başucumda, hala saklarım, her sözü vurgun o satırları.
Yok! Yırtıp atamadım
Hayır yakamadım
O mektubu bırakıp gitti gideli
Ne aradı, ne sordu
Vefasız uyuttu beni
Buralarda zaman durdu
Ah dönmedi unuttu beni
Bir sabah alıp seni benden gittin bu diyardan
Hazin bir mektup yadigar kalan
Senden bana son hatıran

UZAK

Karnı tokken sızlanandan
Zevk sürerken sıkılandan
El içinde ağlayandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana, uzak
Dost lafından gocunandan
Kuşkusuyla buz tutandan
Düşmanına dost durandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana, uzak
Sevabını anlatandan
Günahına kulp takandan
Düşmanına dost durandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana, uzak
Suretiyle kandırandan
Şeytanıyla yarışandan
Aynalardan kovulandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana, uzak

YANDIM

Özledim seni, düştüm yollara
Açtım gönlümü rüzgarına
Bir hayaldi sanki, bir macera
Yıkıldım. Kelimeler paramparça
Yandım. Yandım
Yandım yandım ahhhh ki ne yandım!
Bana yeniden şarkılar söyleten kadın
Baka baka doyamadım, hem kokladım da
Sarhoşluğu geçmedi hala
İçimde sevdan
Hala hoş bir havan var
Ne güzel adın
Bir çizik attın gönlüme, kanattın
Yandım. Yandım
Yandım yandım ahhhh ki ne yandım!
Bana yeniden şarkılar söyleten kadın
Baka baka doyamadim, hem kokladim da
Sarhoşluğu geçmedi hala
İçimde sevdan
Seni görebildigim yer rüyalar artık
Deli diyorlar bana
Ah bu ayrılık

ONA SOR

Yar, yemin isteme yemin etmem
Yeminler tutulmaz ki
Söz; o benimse
Sözün emin elde
Güvensiz tutulmaz ki
Yağmura sor, çöle sor, dağlara sor
Bir tek bana sorma
Ona sor, O'na sor, O'na sor, O'na sor oofff
Yar, gücenme
Gözün neden yerde
Bu ceza taşınmaz ki
Ellerim neden böyle buz keser anla
Suçlama, yakışmaz ki
Yağmura sor, çöle sor, dağlara sor
Bir tek bana sorma
Ona sor, Ona sor, Ona sor, Ona sor oofff
Canım de, geçti de
İstersen bitsin de
Hak verme asla, hiç güvenme
Haksızsam affetme
Hak verme asla, hiç affetme
Haksızsan hak alma dur

HÜP

Kalpten kalbe bir yol varsa
Bu aşktır elbet
Rüzgarın yetti bana
Koptu bir kıyamet
Aç kapını, ben geldim
Giydiğim, ateşten gömlek
Kuş sütüyle beslerim seni
Mis yerine koklarım seni
Kalbimin sarayları senin
Sen ağlat, ben severim seni
El üstünde tutarım seni
Dizimde uyuturum seni
Kalbimin sarayları senin
Ben seni yaşatırım seni
Tut kolumdan çek götür beni
Hüüüüp diye içine çek beni
Yalnız taştan duvar olmaz
Bunu yaz bir yere
Sarılıp yatmazsam, uyku girmez gözüme
Dünya gözümde değil
Olmuşum sana pervane

SEN BAŞKASIN

Küstürdün, canımdan bezdim
İnsafa gel yeter!
Ya beni de al oralara
Ya da kalbimi bana geri ver
Bu kaçıncı güzüm yazına küsen
Yıllar oldu, özledim
Bu kaçıncı unutup giden
Yine ben mi? Yine mi ben?
Yine mi oyuna gelen, yine mi terkedilen
Aslında kimi zaman karşı koyamadım, dayanamadım
Ben de senin gibi şeytana uydum
Seni aldattım
Ne nedamet duydum
Ne de uğruna kahroldum
Ben de günümü gün ettim
Dile kolay, sarhoş oldum

YALAN

İstedim, ama yapamadım
Üstüne gül koklayamadım
Denedim Ama olmadı
Kimseleri yerine koyamadım
Sen başkasın... başkasın
Ah nafile, bambaşkasın

TAŞ

Öyle sakin durduğuma bakma
Habersizce kopan fırtınaara benzerim
Ne olur, bile bile canımı yakma
Alet olur oyununa, seni pişman ederim
Yar etmem
Elleri sana zehir ederim
Unuttun mu kurduğumuz o düşleri?
Göz göze, diz dize, o hoş sohbetleri
Kaç mevsim yolunu bekledim
Sarardım, yazına hasretim
Aman aman aman aman
Ne hata ettim, kabahatim ne? Söyle!
Öyle pervasız gidemezsin hiçbir yere
Arar bulurum izini
Bilirsin, zırdeliyim ben
Yakarım, yıkarım ne var ne yok, gelirim peşinden
Taş olurum yollarında
Takılır, düşer ah yorulursun
O uzaklar bize haram
Gel vazgeç; ziyan olursun

HER NERDEYSEN

Ne kartposttallar yolladım
Arasına resimler koydum
Kaç eylül daha geçti, bir cevap alamadım
Ama ben bekliyorum… ama yok, yazmıyorsun
Peki, o zaman öyle olsun
Kırılan kalbim olsun
Dalgaların, denizlerin selamı var herkesin
Öp dediler yanaklarından, bir kere de bizim için
Nerdeysen, ama nerdeysen
Kimleysen, her nerdeysen
Radyoda o şarkıyı bu sabah gene dinledim
Tam evden çıkıyordum, bir garip oldu içim
Ama ben bekliyorum… ama yok, gelmiyorsun
Peki, o zaman öyle olsun
Kırılan kalbim olsun
Çocuklarin, balıkçıların, selamı var martıların
Öp dediler gözlerinden, bir kere de bizim için
Nerdeysen, ama nerdeysen
Kimleysen, her nerdeysen

VERME

Sebebimden doğmus oldum seçmeden
Çekeceğim derdim nedir bilmeden
Yüklediğin yükle yıkıldım kaldım aman
Vereceksen akıl verme istemem
Verme, verme, verme akıl verme
Vereceksen huzur ver, vereceksen huzur ver
Karı nerden bilsin zarardan dönen
Döneceksen şimdi dön ben beklemem
Kovulur mu gönül, konduğu yerden
Vereceksen akıl verme istemem
Verme, verme, verme akıl verme
Vereceksen huzur ver, vereceksen huzur ver

2007-12-18T01:40:00.000+02:00

ŞIMARIK

Takmış koluna elin adamını
Beni orta yerimden çatlatıyor
Ağzında sakızı şişirip şişirip
Arsız arsız patlatıyor
Belki de bu yüzden vuruldum
Sahibin olamadım ya
Sığar mi erkekliğe seni şımarık
Değişti mi bu dünya
Çekmiş kaşına gözüne sürmeyi
Dudaklar kıpkırmızı kırıtıyor
Bir de karşıma geçmiş utanması yok
İnadıma inadıma sırıtıyor
Biz böyle mi gördük babamızdan
Ele güne rezil olduk
Yeni adet gelmiş eski köye vah
Dostlar mahvolduk
Seni gidi fındıkkıran
Yılanı deliğinden çıkaran
Kaderim püsküllü belam
Yakalarsam muck muck
Ocağına düştüm yavrum
Kucağına düştüm yavrum
Sıcağına düştüm yavrum
El aman

İKİMİZİN YERİNE

Sevdim çok sevdim
Tanıdım aşkın en saf halini
Kokladım gecelerce
Bıraktığın eşyayı, boş evi
Uzanamadı elim telefona
Defalarca gidip geldi
Yenik düştüm kendime
Göre göre
Gurur sandığım aslında
Ümitsizliğimdi
Anladım temelli gittiğini
Haklıydın üstelik
Suç benimdi
Sen üzülme gülüm incinme
Canımın içi iki gözüm sakın küsme
Bana hediye bırak butün kederleri
Ben ağlarım ikimizin yerine
Bilirsin aslında adaletsizliğini
İstemezsin hani sen de bittiğini
Ama kendinden yanadır ya hep yürek
Feda edip aşkı, korur ya kendini

Lyrics & Music: Tarkan, Sezen Aksu

ÖLÜRÜM SANA

Ah nihayet aşk kapımı araladı
Usul usul yanıma sokulup
Özüme daldı
Sen daha önceleri nerelerdeydin?
Demlendin kollarında
Ateşinde
Ben nasıl da senden böyle habersizdim
Yenilendim dudaklarında
Yok yok sende
O da benim gibi gözükara belli
Serserim deli dolu terelelli
Bu aşk bizi yola getirmelli
Ölürüm sana ölürüm şışşt zilli
Yaktın beni hain
Tiryakin oldum yarim
Çaldın beni benden
Düştüm ağına zalim
Teslim oldum sana bile bile
Kapıldım yine göz göre göre
Ah! Başım dönüyor
Kanım kaynıyor

Lyrics & Music: Tarkan

SALINA SALINA SİNSİCE

Sıradan bir akşamüstü
Durgun bir pazar günüydü
Ben bedbaht dolanırken aylak aylak
Olan oldu aniden
Bir telaş sardı mahalleyi
Böylesini gözler hiç görmedi
Tutuldum bu afet bir içim su
Allahım rüya mı bu?
Sen başa bela dilber
Her derde deva esmer
Salına salına sinsice
Girdin kanıma gizlice
Belindeki kemer olayım
Saçındaki toka olayım
Nefesin olup içine dolayım
Ez geç yürüdüğün yollar olayım
İste kölen olayım
Sensiz geçen günlere düşman oldum
Bittim, mahvoldum yar deli gönlüm
Tarumar
Uzat elini aşk yolunda kayboldum
Düştüm dillere bir ümit ver
Eriyorum yar

Lyrics & Music: Tarkan

GECENİN ÜRKEK KANATLARINDA

Her gece sensiz
Yatağa girince sessiz
Geceyi örterken üstüme her gece
Her gece sensiz
Uykuya dalınca renksiz
Gecemin ürkek kanatlarında her gece
Ve beni karanlıklar sarar
Kendimi ararken çıkmazında bilmecemin
Ay bile bulutlardan düşer
Bağrımı deşerken melekleri her gecemin
Her gece sensiz
Kanıma girince tekinsiz
Geceyi yırtar çığlıklarım her gece
Beni karanlıklar sarar
Kendimi ararken çıkmazında bilmecemin
Ay bile bulutlardan düşer
Bağrımı deşerken melekleri her gecemin

KIR ZİNCİRLERİNİ

Seninle son gecemiz bu
Bu son sevişmemiz belki de
Bırak alev alsın bedenin
Hissettiğin gibi ol bu gece
Tüm oyunları oynayalım sırayla
Günaha bulanalım biteviye
Şşş konuşma hiç soru sorma
Sırlarımı keşfet bu gece
Kır zincirlerini gel
Aşka kanalım seninle
Yum gözlerini
Soluksuz uçalım göklerde
Geriye sayım başladı
Ayrılık anı çok yakın
Bırak tutuşsun bedenin
Tadına varalım her dakikanın
Tüm yasakları delelim
Yudum yudum içelim aşkı bu gece

Lyrics & Music: Tarkan

İNCİ TANEM

Çaresizim mecbur bu veda
Kokun üzerimde gidiyorum uzaklara
Sığınıp anılara bu hasrete dayanırız elbet
Ümidimiz muradına erecek sabret
Sabret inci tanem bekle beni
Döneceğim mutlaka sabret
Ağlama ne olur vazgeçme bekle beni
Döneceğim mutlaka sabret
Vız gelir dağlar, denizler, yaban eller
Sevmeye engel değil mesafeler
Geçici bu ayrılık bir rüya farzet
Sonunda zafer bizim olacak sabret
Sabret inci tanem bekle beni
Döneceğim mutlaka sabret
Ağlama ne olur vazgeçme bekle beni
Döneceğim mutlaka sabret

Lyrics & Music: Tarkan

BAŞINA BELA OLURUM

Dağ, tepe, toprak aşk kokuyor
Savulun a dostlar yar geliyor
Bu eda bu naz bir ömre bedel
İşvesi, cilvesi çıldırtıyor
Bıkmadım, yılmadım
Peşindeyim yine yorulmadım
Tutunamadım gülüm sana doyamadım
Ömrümü adadım yaranamadım
Bir sağa, bir sola hop oynarım
Uğruna kul köle olurum
Pervaneyim sana divaneyim ama
Başına bela olurum
Bir hoş oldum bana bir haller oluyor
Sarhoş oldum bedenim sarsılıyor
Bu eda bu naz bir ömre bedel
İşvesi, cilvesi çıldırtıyor

Lyrics & Music: Tarkan

UNUT BENİ

Uçsuz bucaksız bir çölün ortasındayım
Dayanılır gibi değil çıkmazdayım
Adım adım izimde yalnızlığım
Reva mı hep kırık dökük sevdalarım
Ah düşlerim berduş sevgilerim
Kalmadı hiç mecaliniz
Dargın ümitlerim
Ah yanarım hep virane anılarım
Bırakmadı yakamı yaslar
Faydasız dualarım
Geç olmadan vazgeç bırak beni
Ardına bile bakma git unut beni
Uzak dur yar kederimden, unut beni
Unut beni
Hüznüm yaralar seni dayanamazsın
Unut beni
Üşütür karanlığım alışamazsın
Duy feryadımı Tanrım dardayım
Bu yol gidilir gibi değil çıkmazdayım
Dayandı kapıma yine arsız yalnızlığım
Reva mı hep boynu bükük sevdalarım

Lyrics & Music: Tarkan

DELİKANLI ÇAĞLARIM

Bir sabah penceremden
Süzüldü odama ilkbahar
Kıpır kıpır aman bir telaş
Bülbülle gül sarmas dolaş
Kalbim düştü yine yollara
Başıboş, avare aşklar peşine
Hiç niyetim yok uslanmaya
Koklamalı her çiçeği kana kana
Hazırım al, al uçur beni
Gel sabaha kadar hırpala beni
Seninim al, kalbimi çal
Günahlarınla kavur beni
Hayat kısa, hızlı yaşamalı
Boşver düşüver ellerin diline
Her hoş an kısa günün karı
Sal kendini kapılıver aşk seline
Bir gün elbet diner hareretim
Durulurum, ben de gönül bağlarım
Bu aralar gelmeyin üstüme
Şimdi delikanlı çağlarım

BENİ ANLAMA

Beni sev, sev de anlama
Dokun, hisset, ne olur sorgulama
Sakın beni yagırlama
Yapma, değiştirmeye çalişma
Ah vazgeçme
Arzula, sev, okşa beni, üzme, ne olur üzme
Ele geçirmeye çalışma hiç böyle beni
Sen bana, ben sana benzersek ne olur?
Nasıl dayanır ki aşk bu kadar aynılığa?
Beni neden sevdiğini hatırla ne olur
O ilk günler nasıl da aşkla sevişirdik!
Aşk incelik ister canım, hoyrat olma!
Beni böyle sev, değiştirme, boşver anlama
Bir güç savaşı değil bu, kendi haline bırak
Galibi yoktur ki hiç, aşk bu unutma
Aşk bu aşk olacak
Sen izin verirsen yaşanacak!

Tarkan A-acayipsin Lyrics

2007-12-18T01:31:00.000+02:00

HEPSİ SENİN Mİ?

Başkası olma, kendin ol
Böyle çok daha güzelsin
Ya gel bana sahici sahici
Ya da anca gidersin
Anasının kuzusu
Ciğerimin köşesi
Kız bu neyin cakası
Kız hepsi senin mi?
Oynama şıkıdım şıkıdım
Ah yanar döner, a-acayipsin
Ne deli ne de divaneyim
Biliyorum sonunu
Sanma uğruna viraneyim
Beğenmedim oyununu
Oynama şıkıdım şıkıdım
Ah yanar döner, a-acayipsin
Hadi kasıl, hadi kapris yap
Hadi ben çekerim razıyım
You are the best
You are the top
Hadi, emrine amadeyim

Lyrics & Music: Sezen Aksu

DÖN BEBEĞİM

Sensiz gecelerin koynunda
Uyku girmez gözlerime
Bu karanlıklar beni eritse de
Vazgeçmem senden
Aşk-ı alevinden
Bilirim günler yeniden doğacak
Ellerim dokununca yüreğin yanacak
Bilirim herşey yeniden yaşanacak
Sarılınca boynuna gözlerin dolacak
Yürürüm gecenin üstüne
Salarım güneşlerimi
Görürüm tane tane açılan güllerimi
Yürürüm gecenin üstüne
Günahlardan geçerim
Ezerim birer birer yalan sevişleri
Dön bebeğim
Dön çaresiz başım
Ayrılık böyle uzun sürmez ki
Dön bebeğim
Acılar seliyim
Dön bebeğim
Hasrete gebeyim

ŞEYTAN AZAPTA

Sabah işe giderken
Her zamanki gibi erken
Karbondioksit, monoksit
Ve trafik beni yerken
Birileri kaldırımda yaya
Birileri biniyor arabaya
Monotoni, megamoni
Diye diye vardım Galata’ya
Derken bir gördüm pir gördüm seni
Ve anında mahvettin dengemi
Öylece kalakaldım
Eyvahlar olsun yandım
Ya birinin ahı tuttu
Büyüye bile inandım
O an olan oldu
O çapkın rüzgar uçurdu eteklerini
Benim şuçum yok o bozdu
İnan ki bütün iyi niyetlerimi
Şeytan azapta
Şaka maka derken halim berbat
Kaderime küstüm iyice heyhat
Unuttum dünya halini
Derdine düştüm feryat feryat

BEKLE

Kanadı kabus taşır
Zemheri kanında dolaşır
İşler diline donar kalır
Ardında ümidi yorgun
Geceyi sürgün bırakır
Korkulu yüz güne karışır
Bekleyiş sonsuz ölüm gibi
İstersin gün yarın olsun
Yaban kalmasın gülün
Gözlerin sevinçli kalsın
Bekle, beni bekle geleceğim
Bekle, beni bekle döneceğim
Güneşim tenini sararken
Huzurlu bahçesinde cennetin
Neşeli çocuklar gördüm
Yüzleri rengarenk çiçekti
Kamaştı gözlerim
Bekle, beni bekle geleceğim
Dağlarda nehirlerim coşarken
Güvendesin, benimlesin, göreceksin
Ölesiye seni seveceğim,
Bekle…

EYVAH

Bile bile yine beni aradı buldu
Dağıttı yıktı külleri savurdu
Ah kaçamadım beni yine yakaladı eyvah
Cefası cezası tüketti beni
Kaba saba sözleri buz etti beni
Kurtulamadiım kelepçeledi beni eyvah
Kara meleğim yine omuzuma kondu
Dilim tutuldu sözlerim dondu
Çözülemedim düğümledi beni eyvah
Deli ediyor beni yalanları deli
Huzurzus ediyor bakişlari beni
Terkedemedim hacıladı beni eyvah
Başımın belası, ambalaj hatası
Bu kadın gecemin korkulu rüyası
Havada karada o hep yanımda
Her yerde bu kadın
ölürüm sononda
Beni arıyor, soruyor,
geliyor eyvah
Geri dönüyor, yemin ediyor
Beni seviyor eyvah

KIŞ GÜNEŞİ

Artık çok geç yalvarma
Dönüş yok o yıllara
Bil ki sana bu son veda
Yürekli olmadan
Meydan okumadan
Yaşanmaz aşk
Yanlış zaman
Yanlış insan
Tutunmak imkansız
Bıktım yamalı sevdalardan
Yanlış bahar
Kış güneşi
Yoruldum her bulduğumda
Kaybetmekten seni
Kıyamete kadar
Kapattım kalbimi
Azar coşar deli gönül
Bu gözler ah neler görür
Hasret bana göre değil
Özlemin içimde
Yine seni büyütür

UNUTMAMALI

Unuttu dediler
Hiç sevmedi dediler
Gücendim yar
Yalanmış dediler
Bir anlıkmış dediler
Kırıldım yar
Aldatıyor dediler
Aldırmıyor dediler
Yıkıldım yar
Deli gibi yürekten sevmeli
Uğruna dünyaları vermeli
İncitmemeli sevenleri
Değerlerini bilmeli
Unutmamalı o güzel günleri
Anılarla gönülleri hoş tutmalı, avutabilmeli
Hatırlamalı, sevgiyle anmalı
Ümitlerle yarınları hoş tutmalı, ayırmamalı

GÜL DÖKTÜM YOLLARINA

Gözlerinden okunuyor
Beni seviyorsun
Sözlerin seni ele veriyor
Sen de istiyorsun
Eninde sonunda benim olacaksın
Hadi naz yapma
Sevgiyi, aşkı bende bulacaksın
Yabana atma
Bıktırma, usandırma
Yeter beni kızdırma
Gel artık kollarıma
Gül döktüm yollarına
Gel gündüzle gece olalım
Gel gökyüzünde yıldız olalım
Seninle mutlu yarınlara koşalım
Gel beraber mesut olalım
Geçmiyor ki sensiz geceler
Rüyalar yetmiyor
İsyan ediyor içimde sevgiler
Sabrım tükeniyor

DURUM BETER

Keyfine bak unut dertleri
Umursama dünya fani
Bir bilmece, bir bulmaca hayat
Düşünme bile çözmeyi
Hep alışverişler
Bitmiyor vaatler
Kavgalar da tuz biber
Yetti canıma, tak etti canıma
Durun yeter, durum beter
Aldanma dostum, inanma dostum
Yalan yarınlara
Yanıyor dünya, bitiyor dünya
Düşün kara kara
Keyfine bak unut dertleri
Önemseme dünya fani
Bir bilmece, bir bulmaca hayat
Düşünme bile çözmeyi
Açmıyor çiçekler
Toz duman gönüller
Tehlikede bebekler
Yetti canıma, tak etti canıma
Durun yeter, durum beter

GİTME

Ne vakit gelsen aklıma
Bir yıldız düşer içime
Seni görürüm o anda
Yağar yağmur avucuma
Gidersen doğmaz güneşim
Sarar gözlerimi acı bir telaş
Gitme desem canım, kalır mısın benimle?
Gitme desem canım, sever misin beni yine?
Gitme ah gitme
Geceler sabahsız
Ömrün baharsız
Sensiz kalırsam
Ölürüm yalansız
Gitme ah gitme, ne olur
Kıvrım kıvrım saçların
Islanır ben dokununca
Ne vakit gelsen aklıma
Durdururum zamanı

SEVİŞ BENİMLE

Çıkar ateşten elbiseni
Bir tek çıplaklığın kalsın
Ateşten de sıcak
Ay odada şimdi
Ay yatakta
Ay içindeyken daha çıplak görünüyorsun
Kendini ver bana
Nasıl da büyür bedenin gecenin içinde
Sen sen değilsin artık
Hadi konuş benimle
Utanmak istiyorum sözlerinden
Seviş benimle, savaş benimle
Karışalım birbirimize
Hiç nokta koyma geceye
Dur yok, durak yok
Bu son gece, ölüm yakın
Konuş benimle, seviş benimle
Sınırsız ol, yasaksız ol
Seviş benimle, savaş benimle
Bir yılan kadar soğuk ve kıvrak
Bir yalan kadar çekici ve ürkütücü olmalısın
Sen sen değilsin artık
Ben de yokum
Seviş benimle, konuş benimle
Yalnızca aşk ve gece
Ölüm bir adım ötede

BİZ NEREYE?

Takılmışım sözlerine
Ben mecburum gözlerine
Bunlaara inanmak zor bir anda
Kimde varsa alacak
Rüzgar çıktı ne kalacak?
Bütün bunlar delilikse ben deliyim
Uçmasam da göklere
Bir kuş olsam pencerede
Perdeyi kapatsan da
Ben seninle
Bir ses buldum isminde
Bin renk buldum yüzünde
Bu bir zaman denizi
Biz nereye?

KIL OLDUM

Takmış takıştırmış
Sürmüş sürüştürmüş
Bir dağınıklık, bir rüküşlük
Kıl oldum abi
Giyinmiş rengarenk
Perperişan hali
Üstelik çorabı da kaçmış
Kıl oldum abi
Kaçacak yer ararım
Görsem karanlıkta
Başına güneş mi geçti
Ne oldu sana?
Kendine gel kendine
Dön de bir bak haline
Aynalara küsmüşsün
Kıl oldum abi

KİMDİ?

Hadi canım sende, olmaz ki böyle
Küsen kızan kıran kimdi söyle
Yine beni terkedip giden kimdi?
Kimdi, kimdi?
Kimdi söyle
Yalan dolan dolu sözlerinle
Deli deli bakan gözlerinle
Beni beni dertlere salan kimdi?
Kimdi, kimdi?
Kimdi söyle
Yaktın beni sen kor ateşinle
Üzdün beni bitmez hasretinle
Seviyorum, bırakmam diyen
kimdi, kimdi
Kimdi söyle
Kahır keder dert hepsi sende
Kalmadı sabır tükendi bende
Dayanamam çekemen ah bitti
Bitti, bitti
Bitti, böyle
Nazın cazın hiç bitmedi gitti
Sazın sözün de zamanı geçti
Güle güle sana da artık bitti
Bitti, bitti
Bitti, söyle

SÖZ VERDİM

Kapım her çaldığında, sensin sanırım,
İçimde hep bir umut, sana koşarım
Bitmedi hasretin, ona yanarım
Günü güne ekledim, geçti yıllarım
Özleyeceğim
Hep seveceğim
Söz verdim sana, canım
Bekleyeceğim
Hiç bitmeyecek gibi geliyor,
Günler sensiz ne zor geciyor
Ümidim yarını bekliyor
Kollarım seni sarmak istiyor
Gözlerim seni arzuluyor
Ümidim yarını bekliyor

GELİP DE HALİMİ GÖRDÜN MÜ?

Veda edip gittin gideli, nedense
Ne bir mektup, ne selam gelmedi
Durup dururken şimdi niye, sebep ne?
Arayıp soruyormuşsun herkesten beni
Yok olmaz artık, yok olmaz artık
Sen değerimi bilmedin
Fark etmez artık, fark etmez artık
Kalmadı değerin senin
Gelip de halimi gordün mü
Görüp de hatırımı sordun mu?
Öyle uzaktan olmaz ki
Elinle ateşimi hiç ölçtün mü
O sayfa çoktan kapandı açamam
Geriye dönmem ben asla, yalvarma
Anladım herşey yalanmış, aldanmam
İnanmam artık ben aşka, ben aşka
Yok olmaz artık, yok olmaz artık

Fark etmez artık, fark etmez artık
Kalmadı değerin senin

Yoksun yanımda en zor anımda
Olmuyor sabah o şafaklarda
Geceler dolmuş sanki hüzünle
Çok özledim seni gece bahane

Sensizliğin ilk akşamında
Acılarımla göz yaşlarımla
Haykırdım, sarıl bana

Gardiyan mı sevgili mi?
Hiç bitmedi şu göz hapsi
Bıktırdı sorgu suali
Artık canıma tak etti
Birazcık kahrı varmış
Çeksem sanki ne varmış
Oldu canım ara beni
Seninki sevgi mi sanki eziyet
Olay bu, bundan ibaret vaziyet
Başkası olsa çoktan bırakır giderdi
Olmuyor, olamıyor hoşçakal derdi
Pes eder senden vazgeçerdi

Gözlerin beni benden alan...
Sislerin ardından, buğulu bakan
Ah, sözlerin.
Sözlerin beni benden çalan
Bir nehir misali, kalbime akan
Asla, asla vazgeçemem, senden asla
Olamam ben sensiz,
Yapamam sevgisiz …
Asla, asla vazgeçemem, senden asla
Olamam ben sensiz,
Yapamam kimsesiz
Ah, saçların!
Saçların alev alev yakan
Rüzgarla savrulup bin ışık saçan

ÇOK ARARSIN BENİ

Kimse çekmez seni, çektiğim gibi
Kimse sevmez seni, sevdiğim gibi
Bile bile köle ettim kendimi,
Sen de hint kumaşı sandın kendini
Çok ararsın beni - çok, çok
Çok beklersin beni - çok, çok
Çok ararsın beni - çok çok
Çok özlersin beni - çok, çok, çok, çok
Hergün başka biri, yeni sevgili
Sözleri hep yalan, yalan gözleri
Ne sevdiği belli, ne sevmediği
Ben de şimdi buldum başka birini
Sevgi dedin sevdalandık,
Sevda bizde kilo ile
Bağlan dedin, bağlanıverdik
Metre metre urgan ile
Şimdi ahlar vah vahlar
Bu eyvahlar boşuna
Tak sepeti koluna
Herkes kendi yoluna
Hergün başka biri, yeni sevgili
Sözleri hep yalan, yalan gözleri
Ne sevdiği belli, ne sevmediği
Ben de şimdi buldum başka birini

SELAM VER

Gözlerin geçmişi sorguluyor
Anılar sanki hesap soruyor
Seni bırakıp gitmem hataymış
Deli gönlüm bunu şimdi anlıyor
Anladım hala unutmamışsın
Suçluyum, ne desen haklısın
Hasretini çektim nefes gibi
Soluğumda pişmanlığımı duyarsın
Bana yine gül diyemem
Beni yine sar diyemem
Sevgimin hatrına bir tanem
Hiç olmazsa selam ver

Söyle ne geriye kalan ?
Sevgimin yerini nefret aldı
Unuttum, sildim ben çoktan
Sana yıllarımı verdim
Yoluna sevgimi serdim
İnanabilseydim sözlerine
Belki yeniden severdim
Haydi yırt resimleri
Haydi at mektupları
Geriye senden hiç bir hatıra kalmamalı
Yetti artık yetti
Bitti herşey bitti
Katlanamam yalanların beni tüketti
Hep aldatılan ben oldum
Hep inciltilen ben oldum
Pişman olmak için zaman geç artık
Son gülen yine ben oldum

Haydi at mektupları
Geriye senden hiç bir hatıra kalmamalı

Tarkan Facts & Favorites

2007-12-16T21:00:00.000+02:00

Full Name: Tarkan Tevetoglu

Born: 10/17/72 in Germany.

Do you have any brothers and sisters?
I have sisters Nuray, Gülay, Handan and brothers Adnan, Hakan.

Who do you love most in the world? My mother, without question. We're very proud of each other.

Define "Love": Oh, I don't think you can define love. Can you? I think there are all different kinds. Love is very important, it's what everybody strives for; love is like closeness, wanting someone and being wanted yourself and it's what everyone looks for in the world.

Hobbies: I like to keep up my running. I started it to stop feeling guilty about eating - the only problem is I feel so good after I've had a run and a bath that I need to go out. Because if you go for a run - far from making you tired - it makes you really active, far more than I normally am! I'm intrinsically lazy!

Do you talk to yourself? Yes, quite often actually. I never shut up, you see, and I'm always wandering around either thinking or talking.

Can you eat a plateful of spaghetti without slurping? Yes, because I cut it! I cut my spaghetti! I cheat! And if I don't cut it I make sure it's wrapped really well around my fork before I even attempt to put it in my mouth. I hate slurping. I hate eating messy things. I love eating fried chicken.

Tarkan's House: "I don't really like the idea of people seeing inside my house because it's the only private thing I've got left now. You can come and have a look if you like but it's not very interesting. I've just had the decorators in and it's really bare."

What makes you angry? Waste - particularly people waste what they've got or those who don't appreciate the value of anything. It's not necessarily a financial value - talented people who mess it all up.

First crush: It was a girl I was going out with when I was five and we had the record for the longest kiss on the block.

Have you ever dreamt that you were flying? Oh, yes. I've also dreamt that I was falling and I can tell you right now, you know how they say that when you dream of falling you never hit the ground because if you did you'd be dead? well, it's a myth! A lie! I know this because I hit the ground once and I remember standing up in my dream and saying, "Wow! That's a lie!"

Biography of Tarkan

2007-12-16T20:55:00.000+02:00

Turkish popstar Tarkan (born Tarkan Tevetoğlu on October 17, 1972 in Germany) is one of the most successful pop music singers in Turkey. His albums regularly sell millions of copies.

Tarkan press photo for the release of his 2003 Dudu (album) He is also known in Europe and the Americas, especially for the song Şımarık. This was reincarnated as Kiss Kiss by Holly Valance after Sezen Aksu sold the music rights. This song is also rumoured to have ended the successful working relationship between Tarkan and Aksu as they fell into dispute about the ownership of the copyright to Simarik. They had collaborated on most of Tarkan's hits in Turkey and Europe. Another hit single was Sikidim.

Tarkan is also character of a popular Turkish comic series in 1960s. This is where Tarkan's parents adopted his name from.

Early life

Tarkan spent his childhood in Germany, his father was part of the generation of Turkish immigrants which came to West Germany during the West German economic boom, until suddenly he decided to move his family back to Turkey in 1986 when Tarkan was 14 years old.

Career

Tarkan pictured during the Ölürüm Sana periodTarkan began to study music in Karamürsel. His road to fame began when he moved to Istanbul to prepare for University entrance exams in 1990. He had a difficult time in Istanbul and decided to move back to Germany. It was while he was preparing for the move back that he met Mehmet Sögütoðlu, the chairman of Istanbul Plak. Istanbul Plak was Tarkan's first record label, his record label is now his own music company Hitt Music, which he established in 1997. His debut album Yine Sensiz sold 700,000 copies. His second album A-acayipsin sold more than 2,000,000 copies in Turkey and 700,000 copies in Europe. This was a first-time-ever feat for a Turkish performer.

Suddenly Tarkan had became a star overnight. Tarkan subsequently moved to New York in 1994 to escape the hordes of adoring fans that constantly stalked him and to complete his education at a college in the USA. While Tarkan spent time in the USA learning English, he met Ahmet Ertegün (the Turkish founder of Atlantic Records). Ertegün has been quietly grooming Tarkan for an American career ever since. His English language album is due to be released in October 2005 but under a Universal Germany ticket, as Tarkan has re-started the album several times.

In July 1997, the hit single Sýmarýk was released in Turkey, along with the album Ölürüm Sana. This album took a total of three years to complete. Tarkan collaborated with Sezen Aksu and Ozan Çolakoglu for the album. He thanked them for this during his speech which he delivered after winning the Turkish TV Kral music award for his song Þýmarýk.
At home, Ölürüm Sana sold 3.5 million copies alone. When the album's single Simarik was released in 1999 in Europe, it reached No. 3 in places like Switzerland, France, Germany, and No.1 in Belgium and went platinum. He was awarded with his platinum disc at the Cannes Midem Awards. Following that he released a compliation album for Europe entitled Tarkan. He won a World Music Award in Monaco in the same year for the sales of that album. Tarkan released two more singles in Europe under the Universal ticket, Sikidim and Bu Gece.
Tarkan traveled to Europe and Latin America to promote his music. He gave many international concerts during this period, 18 concerts in 17 cities in total.

In 2000 the self-titled album was released in the USA with a Universal Latino ticket.
In 2001 Tarkan released his first-ever single in Turkey called Kuzu Kuzu. Tarkan's following albums Karma in 2001 and his latest Turkish-language album Dudu, released in the summer of 2003 through Hitt Music, cemented his popularity in his parents' homeland.

He has been the face of Pepsi in Turkey and was the official mascot of the Turkish national football team for the 2002 World Cup, recording the football song Bir Oluruz Yolunda which became an anthem for the fans. He also released his own perfume range entitled "Tarkan" at the start of 2004.

Setbacks

Tarkan had some setbacks during his career. In 1994, Tarkan appeared on a live broadcast for a private Turkish TV channel ATV's anniversary celebrations and was interviewed by a reporter. His response when asked how he was, captured live on camera, was "Çisim var, abi...". Also, while Tarkan was at the height of his fame, he was called up for military service, which he had suspended for a certain length of time while he studied in New York.

The deadline for commencement ended in 1998, but due to contractual obligations, he did not return to Turkey to do his military service. The media discussed whether Tarkan should be viewed as a deserter and stripped of his citizenship, but this never happened.

After the August 1999 earthquake that shook Turkey, the 28 day military service was passed, which allowed for a very short term of service provided that those covered by the law paid $16,000 for the benefit of the earthquake victims. Tarkan returned to Turkey in 2000 and took advantage of this law, completing his service in 28 days.

Tarkan in Time Tunnel

Being in the right place at the right time-that's everyone's wish no matter what he or she's after, but Tarkan doesn't depend on luck alone. As far as he's concerned, "If you really believe in yourself and work hard, somehow, some way, things will happen for you!" And happen they have for this dynamic go-getter. Tarkan's first album, Yine Sensiz, has been a best-seller for months.

Talent aside, the quality that impresses you most about Tarkan is his friendliness. Within moments he's made you feel as if you've known him for years. "A person with a sensitive side and a fun side. The thing I love about dancing is that I'm able to express myself through my body-my style comes right from my heart, with sharp, quick, very articulate movements. And with singing I can really express my emotions." The ballad he favors most on her Istanbul Plak A-Acayipsin album is Gül Döktüm Yollarına. "It's a fun song," he explains. "It says that I'm not impressed with material things." Tarkan's been singing and dancing since the age of six. He quickly discovered his natural ability. Teachers in school noticed his talent, too. "I'd get involved in school shows-acting or singing-then they'd find out about my singing and dancing and ask, 'Well, can you set up a routine for the kids?' 'Sure!' I'd say. No one ever minded."

Tarkan was born on 17th October 1972 in Alzey, Germany; as the fifth of his six brother and his sisters. His passion for music started when he was only three years old.

When he came back to Turkey for the 6th grade, at fourteen years of age, his big interest in music led him towards taking “Türk Sanat Müziği” classes besides the regular high school education.

During his education in the Üsküdar Musiki Cemiyeti between 1990 and 1992, he had the opportunity to work with highly respected Turkish composers, who encouraged him to join the music world. After graduating from high school and receiving the results of the university exam, he took the decision to go back to Germany.

However, right at this time, his destiny has changed majorly when he met Mehmet Sögütoğlu and Tarkan’s first album, “Yine Sensiz” (1993) which founded his big-time entry to the professional music world, was produced/released by Istanbul Plak.
