I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I would listen to this exact same song on the headphones on my way to work while taking that daily 40 min bus ride and gazing out the window. That's how far music trascends.

Cem Karaca-Tamirci Çırağı you should search for this song meaning and he has awesome voice you should meet him

Your pre-video explanations are good. Most people who know Erkin Koray probably don't have that much information. Also, most youtubers arent researcher as you are. I respect you on this. I wish you success .

"I really think i was born in wrong era." I feel the same dude :)

I can't describe how much I admire him, Erkin Koray. I'm just 17 but my dad used to listen this song every single morning while preparing breakfast. This video reminded me of those early mornings :) Also love the way that you search for every video, it makes it so delightful to watch. And you were thinking who influenced who, Erkin Koray met with John lennon at Cannes if I am not wrong. He said he was also a guitarist and John Lenon asked him to play for a bit. He played 'mesafeler', which was not released yet. Lenon did really enjoy it, they say. He asked him to release it in English, but a bit different. Koray was not really interested in that. He wanted to continue making Anatolian rock in his home, inspiring people with amazing, fascinating music. So sad that government, shitty circumstances made him live in abroad, Canada. He still plays guitar and makes live streams , still a living Legend.

Cem Karaca-Resimdeki gözyaşları please :)

"3 Hürel- Sevenler Ağlarmış" If you want to move into a new universe.. "Anatolian Rock Revival Project" you can play mixed from this channel

Bass guitar player ahmet guvenc. He's the bass player in the barus manco donence video

Listen The Rolling Stones - Paint it Black (1966) And listen this song's origin by Erkin Koray - Bir Eylül Akşamı (1962) 🤔🤔😉

Cem Karaca. Resimdeki Gozyaslari. Reaction please.

thank you luke! for showing this legend again. he is still alive and does music though. and the guitar you mentioned is only one of five in the world. erking koray s guitar processor was stolen at the past and he was about to kill himself and he also invented electro baglama by puting pickups to a traditional baglama for the first time. so yes these are other details about him. turkic world will never forget your efforts because you make famous our music globally.

You really deserve to respect. Thank you very much for giving importance to a very valuable artist of Turkish rock music and sharing this information..love you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This song is simply mesmerising.

Erkin koray "ÖYLE BIR GECER ZAMAN KI" Please

Luke, I have to tell you this. You react to songs that I love. And when you react, you pull me in a world made by that song. That's why I look forward to every video you upload. Keep up the good work!

The happy, funky way Cemalim starts out contrasts so well with the desperate feeling of futility in the lyrics. This is exactly the same way I listen to Turkish rock! It is very hypnotic & evocative for sure. I get visual images too but mostly mountain ranges & other moody nocturnal landscapes. I think he plays a Gibson SG, must be a top of the line model.

you are suprising me with your researches before the video. lots of turkish people dont now this facts. go on luke!

Music starts at 3:04 (lots of talking on this ☝️)

Erkin Koray - Çöpçüler, Esterabim, Fesupanallah

Congratulations on your respect for your job.

Wow man. Really good back stories, amazing preparation. Salute for you. Salute for artists. 👏👏

Erkin Koray has gone to cannes film festival (Paris) and coincidentally John Lennon was there too, when Erkin Koray went to the hotel of John Lennon he saw the crowd waiting in front of the hotel he asked to a stuff to see the John but John wanted to see only one fan of himself then fans has writed their names on papers. Erkin has write that he is a musician from Turkey and he is combining our traditional music with the west musics. When Lennon saw the paper he chosed the Erkin Koray. When they meet Erkin Koray played his song '' Mesafeler '' which has not been published yet then Lennon propesed him to publish this song with English lyrics throughout the Europe but Erkin refused it. In my opinion he could have think that the song wasn't going to have enough popularity in europe or maybe he didn't want to get stucked in the English and make his emotions get deeply understanded in Turkish but guess we'll never know. Sorry for the typo

Çok sevdiğim bir şarkı. Hem şarkı seçimleriniz hem de tepkileriniz çok kaliteli. Başarılarınızın devamını dilerim 💜

Fazıl say'ın İnsan İnsan adlı esere bestelediği müzik ve söyleyen sanatçıların uyumu gerçekten mükemmel, dinlemelisin

Vaay Erkin Koray ha! O en sevdiğim sanatçıdır. Sen de benim adamımsın artık! 👊🏼👊🏼

From 1960-1980s there was a heavy psychedelic surge within the music in turkey and I do believe that people did partake in mind opening drugs for inspiration some of the best songs you should check out are; Yabancılar -ağıt Kamuran Akkor -ikimiz bir fidaniz Selda Bağcan-Yaz gazeteci and inçe inçe bir kar yağar Hardal-Nerden nereye Hülya süer -şeker oğlan Nur yoldaş-sultan i yegah Seyhan Karabay ve kardaşlar-nem kaldı Mazhar ve Fuat-Adimiz miskindir bizim and nerde hani 1973 Erkin Koray-suskunluğun ötesi Highly advice for you to check these out I’ve got about a hundred more Turkish rock songs

Reaksiyon verdiğin kişileri önceden araştırıp bilgilendirmen harika. Bu yaptığın işe saygı duyduğunu gösterir. Devam etmeni bekliyoruz. Uzun süredir yoksun ve umarım iyisindir.

İf you're into this anatolian rock i recommend you take look at "Altin gün" band or youtube channel called "Anatolian rock revival project" they're both good

Cem Karaca - Raptiye Rap Rap this song is a lot of fun :D

That Gibson is one of a kind. It is a prototype sold by an unkown American to Erkin Koray in the 60s. Gibson is trying to buy it from Erkin for years and offered him up to a million Dollars but he keeps refusing the offers. Gibson wants to get it and put it in their museum.

ErKING Koray :)

This is just incredible because i had the exact same reaction to song as you! I really heard it for the first time just as long as 2 months ago give or take. And i must say this is just drugs on vibes. Greetings from France, and you should thank Radio Nova because its because of them i came to meet this pearl :)

Cem Karaca - Deniz Üstü Köpürür pleasee reaction !!!

Lol I love how you tripping and "lost it" at the last 3-4 mins ;) This music is exactly meant to lead u this. Cheers! ^^

Keşke bende ingilizce bilseydimde herkes gibi havalı havalı konuşabilseydim kimbilir ne diyolar

Erkin Koray - Estrabim. Erkin Koray - Akrebin Gözleri. Best Erkin Koray Anatolian Rock forever 🇹🇷

You can't find a bad song by Erkin Koray. This man is one of the best Turkish singers. My favorite song is "Akrebin Gözleri". You really should listen to this song. Finally, thank you for taking the time to listen to Turkish songs. ❤️

Respect Luke!! You've learned things most Turkish people dont know. Thumbs up man.

Turkish Anatolian Rock Top 3 1-barış Manço 2-cem Karaca 3-erkin koray (bonus)-Yavuz çetin Yavuz çetin tam rock sayılmaz jazz metal arası bir yapısı var şarkılarını dinlediyseniz

Perfect song of course. Nice video bravo bro. You can listen also Erkin Koray- Fesupanallah

So far nobody could react to Turkish music like you. So please keep doing it, as far as you want though.

Amazing Erkin Koray our pride. Thanks a lot.

Adamsın moruk efsane bi parça. Anadolu Rock forever \m/

If you listen anatolian rock, watch this bands : Bunalımlar, kaygısızlar, moğollar, 3 Hürel, Grup Hardal (My favorite)

Ahh, you put the video back! I'm so glad to finally see it. Here, he made this suit out of his own curtain for the national television, my Erkin

A lament and Rock can be combined so beautifully. Erkin Koray, the king of Anatolian rock. In the meantime, I strongly recommend you to see Ürgüp. Thanks for the great review . love and greetings from Turkey.

Tuna Kiremitçi&Yıldız Tilbe Yine sevebilirim I recommend

One of the other legend , 3 Hurel - sevenler aglarmis , you will be in love in his solo

Even I wasn’t know that much background info about Erkin Koray 🙏🏻 Such a shame :) Kisses and hugs to you Luke 🙏🏻💙🧿

Normalde tepki videosu izlemeyi sevmem. Ama sana Eurovision'u izlerken denk geldim ve hayatımda gördüğüm en iyi tepki videolarını çekiyorsun. Bu kadar araştıran, işini sevenini görmemiştim. Nerdeyse 30 videonu izlemişimdir. İzlerken çok keyif alıyorum ve kahkaha atıyorum. The best reaction video channel ever!!!

3 Hürel - Sevenler Ağlarmış

Seni canı gönülden kutluyorum. Kardeşlik duygusu sadece kan bağı olmasına gerek yok.Seni kardeşim kadar sevdim.Sebebi ise bizim bilmemiz gererken kültürel bilgileri bizden daha çok araştırma yapıp insanlara paylaştığın için.seni kutluyorum kardeşim

Luke Thanks for this video😘🙏🏻💙

He rarely plays this gibson guitar, it is priceless, he was said that he needs bodyguard just to protect this guitar when he bring it to concerts 😄

Luke firstly Hi from Turkey,Alanya I love the way you do your job,you learn and you talk about it so professionaly Respect you... Not like others Luke's style Thank you,we show you love😊

Erkin Koray - akrebin gözleri You must listen

also,Erkin Koray is close friend with John Lennon,According to the story, Someday at Paris, Koray is sitting and playing his songs.And he learns a party that happen in Paris and Lennon was invited. Lennon was not talking with anybody and wasn't answering to journalists, he was pissed off some political situations. Koray joins to the party and found the Lennon.Lennon was very suprised and get excited.the photo that you put on the screen "Lennon,Lennon's girlfriend,Erkin Koray are together" is from this story. Bro Erkin Koray is a LEGEND.

Great reaction 👏 Moğollar 'Issızlığın ortasında' 🙏

Erkin Koray - sevince reaction plssss

Please listen "Hemşerim Memleket Nire" or/and "Halil İbrahim Sofrası" from Barış Manço. These are the songs of the humanity in my opinion. You are gonna love it, believe me. The lyrics of the songs are incredibly deep and they touch to your heart.

Omg you drinking from a Turkish tea glass is adorably fun! I hope that was Turkish tea with a touch of bergamot 🥲😆🫶

King Luke 👏 Thanks for reaction video 🤗

Also Rolling Stones Paint It Black was toooo similar with Erkin Koray's Bir Eylül Akşamı song. You should check it up mate

Awesome. Erkin Koray-Arap saçı please listen. i'm sure you will like it. Good work :)

you've analyzed his very well even though you're not turkish. Wonderful

Barış Manço - 2025 Kayahan - Gönül Sayfam (My heart page) Edip Akbayram - Metrisin Önü (In front of Metris) Selda Bağcan - Ay Işığı Yana Yana (If the moon can shine) Selda Bağcan - Tatlı Dillim (My dear with sweet tongue) Ahmet Kaya - Nerden Bileceksiniz (You can't know it) Haluk Levent - Dert Olur (2003 Turnesi) [It going to be a trouble (2003 Tour)] Zeki Müren - Ah Bu Şarkıların Gözü Kör Olsun (Ah, the songs have to be blind) please... If you dont understand, what "to have to be blind" means, I explain it now. When you are angry to a person, you say: "Kör olasın!" (You have to be blind!). I hope you understand it, because my English is not very good.

Luke how you get this music dont know that really😀but this is amazing cos its very local 😀👍do you know what I meant ??Its not really europian but well done to you I hope my husband can like as much as you do👏 (he is also english and only likes Baris Manco not this one ) thanks all the best

İlhan İrem - Olanlar Olmuş listen pls 🙏

Finally this song gets the recognition it deserves. Well done man. Cheers

His knowledge of 'Anatolian Rock' is vast, a channel should've at least 100k subscriber!

Erkin Koray❤️❤️❤️great reaction Luke👊. Check this song Moğollar(or Hayko Cepkin) -Issızlığın ortasında

Leyla the band yokluğunda reaction pls

The Rolling Stones- paint it black is inspired by the song of Erkin Koray- Bir Eylül Akşamı

Erkin Koray's song Bir eylül akşamı, inspired the Rolling Stones' paint it black. I think you should check the " Bir eylül akşamı" . Wonderful.

Mavi Sakal -İki yol

Cem Karaca Please

Oh boi, i discovered your channel just yesterday and binged all your videos in this 24 hours, amazing to see a new one and well i gotta make a few suggestions since it looks like its the tradition here in the comments; 1-Yavuz Çetin-Yaşamak İstemem from the album "Satılık" , he recorded his final songs and jumped off from the bosphorus bridge, album got released after he committed suicide.In this particuler song he sings about all the sick and wrong things about the world and society and effects on him, that he is devastated, he got corrupted like everyone else, that eventually he became like everyone else, shares his hate on that.He has a touching life story, and a very naive soul i think. There is a documentary about his life and musician friends called "Blue Blue Band" , check it out if interested, his former drummer friend was Kerim Çaplı , he played with The Monkeys 2 And if you'd like discover a modern, fun, can be played in clubs yet meaningful Turkish band , check "Büyük Ev Ablukada" they are dope. Best of wishes for u Luke

Welcome to my psychedelic world.. Love it when younglings listen to stuff from my past

Since you liked Anatolian rock, it would be great if you’d react Gaye Su Akyol’s Istikrarli hayal hakikattir (constant fantasy is reality) song. She has a really unique style, great lyrics and interesting videos. And this song has English subtitles as well. You can also try Gurbet by Ozdemir Erdogan or Adimiz miskindir bizim by Mazhar ve Fuat, they’re one of the best Anatolian rock songs and has wonderful lyrics; you can find both songs with English subtitles in Anatolian Rock Revival Project KZfaq channel, which is a great channel with many Anatolian rock songs with English subtitles.

Respect bro!

Değerli kardeşimiz ilgiyle izliyoruz
