Post Turkish, Armenian and Greek music in this thread!

[Sako]

Guys, question. Can I upload a few songs for ya'll? Believe it or not, I have about 6-7000 right now, I'm a bit extreme when it comes to music. It's my other half. There's Greek, Turkish, English, Armenian, Indian, etc. I don't just take anything I can get my hands on though (most of the time), I sort out and collect my favorite music. It's a hobby of mine, started a long time ago.

DAMN, sorry guys, no wonder no one replied . I just wanted to upload a great song but then realized you can't attach more then about a 100KB with a post. Maybe rapidshare or some other site can help me? Anyways, the songs everyone posted seem to be great. Too bad I can't hear them .

Here is a good site for Armenian songs, enjoy. I'll provide some other sites probably in my next post.

"Gel Gel" means "Come Come" I think.That`s all I can say about the song.

How can I forget Cem Karaca? He should be the first one to talk about in this forum.

His mother is Armenian (Toto Karaca), his father is Azeri (Mehmet Karaca) and both are actors (what a mix, right?). He became one of the most influential musicians of 70s, one of the first that defined a new genre called Anatolian rock which is basically based on Anatolian folk songs and music. He lived in exile in Germany for a while because of his socialist stand.

Below are some links of his music. I strongly recommend everyone to search for more than I posted here:

(Disclaimer: Guys I posted Niksar as the last one, because the video includes Turkish flag, some nationalist slogans etc. I could not find another video that has this song. So, please do not get offended and open another tab in your browser, continue what you are doing, let the video play for itself and listen to the song. A beautiful version of a folk song from the city Niksar)

Cem Karaca is a legend.Having an Azeri father and an Armenian mother is like having a Greek father/mother and a Turkish father/mother.

A Turkish folk song telling the story of a young Turk boy loving an Armenian girl:

You can hear Armenian word "ahchik" (girl- i know it is not written properly) and the Armenian town Huseinik.
