Quand le charismatique ex auteur- chanteur des Smiths, Morrissey voir plus court encore « Moz » qui était venu en 2012 à Istanbul pour le 19 ème festIval de Jazz d'Istanbul en 2012, annonce la sortie de son album le 15 juillet avec sa chanson Istanbul on a peut-être envie de l'avoir rapidement...alors la voici cette « Istanbul ».
When he first cried
His mother died
I had tried to be his guide
When he was born I was too young
The father searches for the son
In Istanbul
Give him back to me
Oh, Istanbul
Give me back my brown-eyed son
Moonlight jumping through the trees
Sunken eyes avoiding me
From dawn to dusk the hunt is on
The father searches for the son
In Istanbul
Give him back to me
In Istanbul
Give me back my brown-eyed son
On secret streets in disbelief
Little shadow shows the lead
Prostitutes; stylish and glum
In amongst them you are one
Oh, what have I done?
Rolling breathless off the tongue
The vicious street gang slang
I lean into a box of pine
Identify the kid as mine
Istanbul
et un peu de son concert stanbouliote
