Playback singing

 

This article appeared on turkish newspaper Milliyet on July 1st, 2003. Thanks a lot to my friend Serdar for translating it from turkish into english.

 


Tarkan presented his new songs to the fans and media in a concert, which took place the night of June 30, 2003, at Reina (in Istanbul, near the Bosphorus). It was a good performance, however, people were complainning that Tarkan was singing in playback: he didn't sing the songs live. It was playack from CD.

The fast facts on his concert:

There were 3,500 guests at Reina that night. Most of them were famous people. Tarkan arrived to Reina in a boat. He opened the concert with the song "Dudu". He sang 5 songs from his single.

Tarkan was wearing a white suite and a bandana. He was late to start his second song so they restarted the Cd.

There were 10 boats outside Reina, they were listening to Tarkan's concert from the sea.

Tarkan sent kisses to Nazan Öncel (Dudu's songwriter) who was in Izmir and couldn't attend the concert.

Reina didn't take any outside guests until Tarkan had completed his concert.

Since Reina's restaurants were closed, other places like Laila, Anjelique Buz and Zihni&Friends got the all the business.

At the and of the concert, Tarkan left Reina by boat again. He cruised through Bosphorus with his friends until 3:30am then he went to his apartment at Ritz Carlton.

There was fireworks at Laila at the same time of Tarkan's concert. Laila's management said it was just a coincidence, they didn't try to ruin Tarkan's show.
