No, but to me the bouzouki sounds even more prominent in this version... given that Greek music and the bouzouki are synonymous, it makes it sound more Greek than not. |

UNBELIEVABLE
I only found the site today and i find that theres others who agree on my choice of song! NON military and certainly ours
I think the verses should be mixed with alternating greek and turkish verses and sung together!
I LOVE THIS FORUM! |

| "sikkime" literally means "to my penis". In daily speaking it means "I dont give a shit". |
