Re: [TANGO-L] That Turkish Tango Tune ?



Hi Everyone:

Janis wrote me and said that my previous posting had shown up a garble in
her email box.  It seems to be mostly okay in the archive, but I am
reposting because it is clear from Michael Figart's posting that at least
several people may have been unable to read my comments.

With best regards,
Steve

At least three different recording artists have recorded different
versions of the song commonly known as "The Turkish Tango" under varying
titles.

Loreena McKennitt -- Tango to Evora
This is the original version.  It has no lyrics.  Loreena sings la, la,
la, la.

Nilufer  -- Cok Uzaklarda
This version has Turkish lyrics.

Haris Alexiou  -- To Tango Tis Nefelis (Tango to Evora)
This version has Greek lyrics.  Haris' version seems to be the most
popular with tango dancers.
