This is a Turkish folk song (or may be not Turkish..I dont know) its name is given to the racist documentry in this thread..

I was looking for the right story for  this song but somehow there seems to be many different tales going around..

Although there is an argument about the origin of the song if it blongs to Armenians or Turks or Azeris, it is a beautiful  folk song.

One of the stories is :

A head of a christian Turkic tribe kipchaks had a beautiful blonde daughter and a young boy from Erzurum fell in love with her..

As typical as it is, the head of the tribe does not agree with that love and the lovers run off..Then the couple is followed by the men, got caught and the boy is killed..

Another version is:

A married guy called sargent Huseyin, falls in love with a blonde Armenian girl at the night of her wedding.. Huseyin raids the house at the same night and took the bride away with him..Though he was followed by the other armenian villagers, he manages to escape..His first wife dies and . But his religious father did not know that the new blonde bride was a christian and he does not like Armenians at all..

And the father kills the blonde bride with a sword while Huseyin was working in the field. Although the bride says ´ I am a muslim now´ in the end but it does not help!! 

Anyway, lets listen to the song

i have a difficulty imagining a blond armenian

You need glasses femme

 you should stop modifying

I wish we had an Armenian TC member here, so we could hear the story from them too..

 we dont have many others too.

i think we had only greek member sophie.

we had only one israeli member ayla.

zero armenian

im the only borat

we have lots of british they dominate.

and lots of nervous turkish patriots abroad.

Hey, hey, what about us Dutch? Deli_kizin, Chantal and me? Eh?

And handsom, that idiot ex-bf of mine speaks Armenian, want his e-mail?

This link says that it doesn´t belong to Armenians for example.

Calm down...

I was just saying what I read in the papers (including your link). 

I dont think it matters that much..And if it blonged to Armenians I would be quite a nice thing to know so that we could say : "that is how we used to be living together, that is how our cultures are interconnected"..

Our cultures are connected anyway. Their language have much in common with Turkish. Their kitchen is very similar to ours. So is their music. We have many Armenian composers in classical Turkish music.

I bet many Armenians in USA still speak good Turkish.
