Re: TURKEY 2016

Will be great to have Turkey back again :D I just hope there isnt a load of diaspora voting again :(

^^That. And their banal excuses of 'the big 5' and other things just put me off. I'd gladly have Turkey back but with less drama and more substance (haven't liked an entry from them since 2008)

Their big 5 excuse isn't banal at all, partly they (and all other participants who don't pre qualify except for host) are right to complain about that. But only if TRT's attitude wasn't that annoying as if they "own" the Europe.

I usually love the Turkish entries so I will be glad about that :p Hopefully diaspora won't ruin things though Eurovision voting isn't as corrupt as when Turkey last participated.

#Eurovision2015 was #1 trending topic the whole evening in Turkey even though no tv channel was broadcasting it!

We clearly want to return xcheer

Send Hadise again :)

She needs to improve herself on the stage. That performance was like a nightmare. That`s the only reason I don`t want to see Hadise again.

Re: TURKEY 2016

So is it sure that Turkey will come back?

I'd love for some TurkPop a la Gülsen or Hande Yener xcheer

If rock then PLEASE let it be actual great TurkRock similar to the entry of Mor ve Ötesi and not those other two Rock entries (maNga was a wasted opportunity for me, if it was more similar to their regular style and less "westernized" and of course not in English then it would have been so much better)...

Re: TURKEY 2016

She was sick then though

I enjoy the song. But that's not only about her voice. The costumes, the choreography, the vocals... She wasted a good song which could hit 2nd place. However, 4th place is overrated with that performance.

I agree, but I like her music :) Even though this performance was playblack, This was much better than in Moscow.

Re: TURKEY 2016

I would LOVE Turkey to be back! And for them to sing in Turkish, as well....

I don't really know many Turkish artists, but I am really liking Göksel, she's amazing.

Re: TURKEY 2016

I don't think we will be returning, but in the unlikely case we do we should be sending Göksel with a Turkish-language song, if she agrees to it of course.
