You decided to rejoin, that's nice
I like the idea of this quiz however this time it was a bit confusing, you gave the lyrics in english and the answer in turkish... plus I haven't heard of Zeki Muren before. It would be nice if you also told us a little bit about the singer (if nobody knows her/him) and her/his place in Turkish culture.

His pronunciation was really perfect. He told the reason in one of his conversation:

"When i was a child, i was trying to write the lyrics of the songs, but sometimes i couldn't understand what the singers say. And then, i said to myself that if i become a singer i will say all the words clearly in my songs, so all people can understand what i say."

I remember Zeki Muren as an unbelievably polite and modest person. He was so devoted to his job. He could not refuse to turn down Turkish Television when they wanted to give him a life achievement award in a live show although he was very sick. He looked very ill and pale and died in front of millions of TV spectators as he was receiving the award.



Really? he dıed whıle receıvıng the award?? ohh I dıdnt know that eıther! All I know he was and stıll ıs a very beloved person and many consıder hım the best Classıc turkısh sınger EVER! 'The sun of arts' ıt tells ıt ALL !! dont you thınk?

He visited many countries for his tv program. He were visiting the other countries and speaking in their languages generally and surprizing us. The name of his program was 7den 77ye. "from 7 to 77". It means that this is a program for everyone from every age category such as "from 7-aged to 77-aged"

I remember some of the parts of the program for children. They were very funny. As far as I heard, there are sme little shows like Barış Manço did in his program.
