My top 3:

1 - 1986 '' Halley ''
2 - 2004 '' For Real ''
3 - 1990 '' Gozlerinin Hapsindeyim ''

Halley is my fave Turkish entry ever...

For the rest,I like 1975 '' Seninle Bir Dakika '',1989 '' Bana Bana '',1993 '' Esmer Yarim '',2007 '' Shake It Up Sekerim '' and 1985 '' Diday Diday Day ''...

Athena - without any doubt. The best ESC song and athmosphere ever.

I like so many Turkish entries, that I couldn't really decide. So I simply voted for the three most successful ones ever: 1997, 2003 and 2010.

I really don't see what people see in this. I like so many of their older ones but this one, I don't know...

 

[Furienna]

Yep, that one and "Halay" were the two best Turkish entries of the 80s.

^ Everyone thinks that it is our the most shameful entry in esc history

We haven't had a NF again after this song was chosen in 2005

Yeah I know, but why? It was a fun song with nice rhythm, I liked it

Maybe if you understand the lyrics it becomes worse? And yeah the performance was a little messy, but still it was a nice entry I think

"Dinle" is far the best turkish entry ever, then "We Could be the Same" by Manga, Athena's "For Real", "Superstar" by Sibel Tuzun and many many others......

first lyrics mean nothing (Anybody don't know what does '' rimi rimi ley '' stand for ) Also you can't understand what did she mean in Turkish parts of song. It means nothing too. And a crap music. Not modern, not special. It represented us badly, The song is a result of cheap work for me (us)

But everyone has different music tastes

Well I understand that "Rimi Rimi Ley" means nothing but I meant for the rest?

Lol you really do NOT like it I see?

Well yes taste differs, as a matter of fact i'm pretty alone on liking this one. But I guess someone always ends up liking what most doesn't like and in this occasion this someone happens to be me

It's not modern as i said. And represented us wrongly. Lyrics are crap, music is crap, stage performance is crap. The girl looks like a peasant. That's why people thinks that it is a shame for us.

I don't know what do people from foreign countries think about this song, So you can like it and it's normal. But you should be a Turkish to understand why it's a crap song.

Maybe we don't like culture of villages so much... And this song sounds as if it came from a village.

Well in my book this is a plus! I want culture! That's what makes Eurovision great and unique

Offcourse a song can be modern aswell.

I have no problem with that culture, but i think we (including me) want to show a modern Turkey to the Europe.

Offcourse, but I don't think a little diversity is a bad thing.

The best entries are the ones though that can in an somewhat cool way combine modern and culture in one entry.
