[@basarmunir]

This is an old song everybody knows and likes in Turkey. There are several different versions I know. I must say that among those this is one of the best versions. Mr.Lauderdale should have a special credit for this; he could manage to give the spirit of the song. The orchestra, as usual, is great as well as the vocals. And also we should note that China sings the song like she is Turkish, such a great pronounciation and prosodie.. Great job.. :-'

[@andreaschristodoulou4274]

She is a great performer ok but her accent its american
