My latest musical crush is on the Turkish band, gripin.
(gripin is also a med to cure the flu.)
They were recently here in the US with Istanbulive, which I missed AGAIN. I need to plan better next year.
gripin has some good songs, but my favorite right now is called They Found the Cure for Loneliness -
Yalnızlığın Çaresini Bulmuşlar. I planned to share the lyrics, but wow, lots of idioms and I didn't have enough time to straighten the words out. The long and short: One lie missing, one lie extra - either way it doesn't matter - the world keeps turning.
Enjoy!
Ooh, I like them! Will have to look up some of their other songs
ReplyDeleteWow, what a gorgeous video. I like the music too.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I received my book today. Thank you, Carolyn!
Great find! I am so behind on my Turkish rock groups! Thanks for posting this, I will look up the rest of the songs. I had no idea there was a Turkish rock festival here! I would have gone.
ReplyDeleteYou are right about idioms... what a piece to translate!
