Amazing! He was so talented, and we are so lucky to be able to still enjoy his talent.

May Bariþ Manço rest in peace.

Many thanks!

Was this his funeral?

He was fond of Victorian and Art Deco furniture. He owned two of the largest collections of Art Nouveau Glass and 18th. century Japanese "Imari" porcelain in Turkey.

The best? what is the criteria? I cannot choose which is the best. There are so many songs of his which you may say is the best.

Beyhude Geçti Yýllar - Barýþ Manço

Bir masaldý aþkýmýz sisler bulutlar ardýnda
Bir akþam bitiverdi her þey yokoldu bir anda

Beyhude geçti yýllar silindi hatýralar
Geride kalan bir avuç yalan
Hüzün dolu geceler buðulu pencereler
Ýþte hepsi bu senden kalan

Nasýl içim yanýyor öylesine sevmiþdim ki seni
Keþke görebilseydin içimde yanan ateþi

Beyhude geçti yýllar silindi hatýralar
Geride kalan bir avuç yalan
Hüzün dolu geceler buðulu pencereler
Ýþte hepsi bu senden kalan

Sanki gizli bir el kopardý seni benden
Savurdu kar tanesi gibi
Boþ yere aðlýyorum dört duvar arasýnda
Deli divane misali
Elinden oyuncaðý alýnmýþ çocuk gibi
Çaresiz yalnýzým þimdi.
Saatler geçmez oldu gecem bitmek bilmiyor.
kalbimde ayný sýzý ve þarkým seni söylüyor.

Beyhude geçti yýllar silindi hatýralar
Geride kalan bir avuç yalan
Hüzün dolu geceler buðulu pencereler
Ýþte hepsi bu senden kalan

Thanks for that... We used one of his songs in our Turkish class. That´s where I first heard of him. Anyway..thought I´d add another link to this same song, where the recording is a little clearer http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=TBSEVxWKGqM&feature=related
