i was in my universities rock festival and i was totally bored from amateur metal bands... until tibet ağırtan (mavi sakals vocal) appeared and started to check sound with rocknroll then they started to play this song have fun its very good song
Neden soruyorsun,
why you are asking?
nereye gideyim
where shall i go?
iki yol var demiştin
you said there are two ways
hangisini seçeyim
what shall i choose?
korkma bebeğim
dont worry baby
hepsinin sonu aynı
the end of all them is same
çok yukarlarda biriymiş
he is someone very much up there
bunları yaptı
who did these
neden soruyorsun
why ypu are asking?
nereye gidiyorum
where am i going?
iki yol var demiştin
you said there are two ways..
birinden gidiyorum
i am going on one
gözyaşları bebeğim
my baby with tears on her eyes
hepsinin sonu aynı
the end of them is same
birinin eksiği
one of them's less
birinin fazlası
is the others more
birdenbire boşalan yolların ortasındayım
suddenly i am in the middle of the roads
hedefler hep
all of the aims
çok çok kolay olmuştu
occured soo soo easily
nereye nereye nereye
where where where
gideyim
shall i go
korkma bebeğim
dont worry my baby
hepsinin sonu aynı
the end of them is the same
çok yukarlarda biriymiş
he was someone very much up there
beni aldı
took me.....

As Sui pointed, the song "İki yol" (Two Ways) is one of their finest songs. I have just uploaded that song for you:
Mavi Sakal - İki Yol :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K0PT7U3D
(Please wait for the coundown on top right of this web page)
Mavi Sakal started as a school band in Tarsus in 1983. Like many cities in today's Turkia, Tarsus is one of the historical cities. The city has remained the very same name since the Roman Empire days.
Tarsus, compared to İstanbul, İzmir and Ankara is not one of the popular cities in our country. Life in this place is too traditional and ordinary.
For some religious reasons the Americans decided to build a school in this city to honor its name. The school was established in 1880's.
In Turkish state schools, and almost all secondary schools are state schools in Turkia, education is a little traditional and strict. Music activities usually consist of playing the plastic flutes in music lessons. Here is a picture from Tarsus American College's music band in 80's.
Here are a few more web pages about TAC and Mavi Sakal:
http://personal.ecu.edu/altinozc/old/tac.htm
http://personal.ecu.edu/altinozc/old/echo.htm
http://personal.ecu.edu/altinozc/old/kampus.htm
http://personal.ecu.edu/altinozc/old/songsof.htm
On this last page you can find an old record of Mavi Sakal's song "Al beni". At the time the school band was called ECHO 83.
You can find other low resolution songs of Mavi Sakal here on this page: (requires "real player" to be installed on your computer)
http://www.turkishmusic.org/index2b.html
If these are not enough for you why don't you try these songs that I have just uploaded:
The songs I like are in bold. Their best two songs are "İki Yol" and "Al Beni".

There are many amateur rock bands in Turkia. Most of them are for 14-16 year old girls. For instance Kargo is such a rubbish band. Their musical understanding consists of choosing a handsome vocal. There was a female vocal in Kargo long time ago and the quality was much better. I'm afraid that album is totally forgotton today. There is a band called "Pilli Bebek" which is also one of my favorites.

I just found a page from their website that includes translations of lyrics. Their main page is down.
http://www.mavisakal.com/html/sonalbum.html
Maybe their whole website might go down. So let us copy the translations here:
bALTA
bugünlerde bir şeyler
kafamı kurcalıyor
yeni araban
yıldızlarımdan parlak mı
böyle soruları soran
soruları soran benim
bugünlerde bir şeyler
kafamı kurcalıyor
meclisler
biz karakoyunları düşÃ¼nür mü
benim seçtiğim
seçimim seçimim seçimimdir
bu baltaya sakin sakin
bu baltaya sakin sakin
sap olma
bugünlerde bir şeyler
kafamı kurcalıyor
vatan kurtaranlar
arkamızdan ne söylerler
biz ölünce
ne ne ne diyorlar
bu baltaya sakin sakin
bu baltaya sakin sakin
sap olma | aXE
in my head, these days some things won't let me be
is the shine on your new car, really so much brighter than my stars
wandering through this wonderings,
I wonder sometimes if it's maybe just me
in my head, these days some things won't let me be
why do these keepers of ours, keep us black sheep from the fields
what's left in my choice,
if the chosen ones choose to forget about me
in this fools parade, you'd better take care
in this fools parade, take care you're not made to play the clown
in this fools parade, take care you're not made to play the clown
in this fools parade, take care take care
in my head, these days some things won't let me be
by the holders of our lands,
behind our backs, how are we called
and when we die, how, how, how are we missed
in this fools parade, you'd better take care
in this fools parade, take care you're not made to play the clown
in this fools parade, take care you're not made to play the clown
in this fools parade, take care take care |

Why are you asking me, where could I go from here
only two roads lead away, from this place you've shown me to
but baby don't be afraid, at their ends nothing
why are you asking me, what am I going towards
only two roads lead away, now I've taken one of them
but baby that teardrop, at the end changes nothing
one leading too far away, one ending just too soon
and here I stand, where these roads flow from one to the other the same,
and all I want is so easy to obtain
where, where, where to now
baby don't be afraid
at the end nothing changes
by one watching far from above…
but baby don't be afraid
at the end nothing changes
by one watching far from above
I was taken | iSTANBUL

we walked in our garden
loved to tear apart
hating and hating
we loved so much

did you know it tastes sweet
in our room made of glass
tore everything apart
shattered into pieces
we loved so much
do you miss the smell of blood
did you know blood tastes sweet |

Well Erdinc, sometimes i really adore you! Thanks a million!
By the way, now that you introduced them to us, is there a chance you could let us know how to download more of their songs?

They have two albums so far. Except the songs you see above there are about 12 more songs that I haven't uploaded on this thread. I can add them part by part later on but the above are the best.
Long time ago I mentioned about Mavi Sakal on the thread "Turkish Music Albums That I Like" but at the time there wasn't enough interest I think. The songs I had uploaded expired after not being downloaded for 30 days.
