Şa -Sarı Saçlı Ela Gözlü
This must be a new band, honestly I haven't heard them before. But when I watched their new clip, I think that may look interesting for you. This is a complex song, it has some different types of technics as instruments and rhytms. It sounds like a bit classic music, on the other way, it is like a Turkish etnic song, "türkü".
The clip is also interesting because it is funny, and looks like a Super Mario game.
Sarı saçlı: (someone) who has yellow hair
ela gözlü: (someone) who has hazel eye
Here is the song, I hope you enjoy :) Read more »
