Re: Most Annoying Song

Ha Ha! It's clear that nobody should take your words seriously.

Bulent Ersoy is considered a "Diva" in Turkey. Is Turkish society trying to match the freakish culture that is America? Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!

Where the hell do you come up with such stuff?

I have to amuse myself somehow while trying not to jab myself in the eye with a sharp object all day.

Re: Most Annoying Song

Your typical attitude. A few times I read your Bulent Ersoy obsession in the posts and It's clear that the reason her transexual identity (deep research for adding biography - photos, .. ).Otherwise you could choose other turkish-kurdish arabesque singers for this thread.

That's because he/ she is the most known among all.

Shortly, she is still a proud of some people .If you like to categorize the people so much , you shouldn't be angry when someone say anything to you : dear conservative and obsessive lucin .

Relax. Nobody is categorising people. It's those 'people' who tend to categorize themselves and we just see them for what/ who they are…

Just being biased. I don't remember listening to a Turkish song and not being able to determine the gender of the singer.

LOL, because you are a Turk. I'm serious.

Maybe there are a few exceptions, which I haven't encountered or don't remember, but you present it as if it is the general case with Turkish songs.

Like it or not, it is much more frequent in your country and with Turkish songs and singers.

Why do you need to connect everything with Turkey, Turks, Turkish Culture, etc? That gives the impression that you are morbidly obsessed with Turks.

Connecting 'everything' with Turkey and Turks? Is it even possible?

Turkish Culture? What is that?

Mind you how painful it would be for me to physically give birth to a pebble let alone a cow

Where the hell do you come up with such stuff?

I couldn't agree with you more.

Talk about Ebru. lol, Total man voice. She's one of those Turkish singers that you have to constantly listen to over and over again to finally realize that she's not a man.

Ebru Gundesh? LOL, true, I had forgotten her.

I tell you what KndHye, to put it in a serious note perspective, although it's painful to give birth to a human being child; but everything's go so fast that once you give birth the feelings become so rewarding and sweet that any pain associated with it would be not only bearable but becomes happy and rewarding... especially when you give birth to a healthy child of yours.

Re: Most Annoying Song

Turkish songs where a lot of the times you cannot distinguish whether the singer is a female or a male. Am I right or I'm just being biased, lol.

Everything in the genre of hip-hop, R&B is usually annoying for me...

I couldn't agree with you more.

Re: Most Annoying Song

What's more disturbing is that somebody took her words seriously.... she doesn't have a son and she used to be a man. That's like me saying "If I gave birth to a cow, I wouldn't let it be slaughtered".

Famous transsexual singer Bülent Ersoy is acquitted of the accusation of “alienating people from military service”, which she faced for her words during a TV show that if she had a son she would not send him to the war with the PKK in the east.

You forgot to add one of her character :

Famous transsexual singer Bülent Ersoy is acquitted of the accusation of “alienating people from military service”, which she faced for her words during a TV show that if she had a son she would not send him to the war with the PKK in the east.

“I have the right to express my opinions freely”
Ersoy defended her position by saying that she was demanding solution rather than dying to solve the problem at hand and she also added that she had the right to express her opinions as an artist who was born and raised in Turkey and paid her taxes.

“If it is treason or alienating people from military service to ask for solution rather than death, then that is simply a matter of understanding. I am here because I was misunderstood.”

LOL, at least it's not just Armenians that are suffering from an identity crisis

Re: Most Annoying Song

That's because the Turkish artists always sound like they are sad, distraught and crying in their songs. Pansy's

Sad, crying pansies? That's it!

Here is one of my favourites: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fF3gvDpslw

And I just read the following in his/her biography:

Bulent Ersoy is a Turkish celebrity, born in 1950.
Bulent was already a popular singer in Turkey when he travelled to England to have a sex change in 1981, becoming a woman yet retaining the traditionally male birth name of Bulent. Under a crackdown on "social deviance" by then Turkish leader Kenan Evren, Bulent was banned from public performances and was also refused a court petition to have her sex re-classfied as female. Ersoy left entertainment in protest until 1988, when changes in the Turkish legal code allowed for MtoF transsexuals to be legally classfied as women. Bulent returned to recording, and actually became even more popular as a female vocalist than she had been as a man.

In 1998, Bulent caused controversy again when she married her 27-year-old companion, Cem Adler - yet the controversy was over the 20+ age difference between them, not the fact that Bulent had once been a man. The couple divorced a year later after Bulent caught Cem with a call girl.
