There are many music websites that you can benefit. Some of them which I know are imeem.com, lastfm.com, mixpod.com and ilike.com…There are these four websites that I know and use. I mostly used ilike.com till I found fizy. Now I mostly use fizy. It is so useful and has a huge data. It is really an awesome music database. You can find any songs you seek. You can list your favorite pieces and keep them for listening later. You can find the track version of videos as well. The other websites are also almost same but fizy is different as far as I can see.
The other day, I used IDM to download a song from boyz ii men from fizy. I thought it was a track mode but after download process finished, I was surprised. It was a video and two doof boys were lip-synching the song in that video. They look like two stupid guys, let alone being funny.
So I think I wont download anything from fizy. I just enlist the songs and start to listen, but you have to sign in if you want to see your playlists.
Fizy is known all around the world, and it is mentioned in an American-based paper as follow with complimentary words.
‘Fizy is a track-by-track search service. No playlists. No downloads. Just searching for and playing individual tracks you're seeking. So why try it? There are two big benefits to Fizy. First, it's database of music is huge. They're claiming over 75 billion mp3s indexed. Diving through the Fizy music selection made me nostalgic for the good old days of Napster when I could find practically any song I wanted to find. Second, it's international. Fizy supports at least 26 languages and is designed to be accessible to as many people as possible. As an added bonus, Fizy will also serve up a video of the track, if it's available.’

no freakin' idea
I left from the table for a while for the lavabo and when I got back to table, I really surprised. I thought I sat the wrong place but selcuk bey was there and asked me to sit. I sat and looked at the table with a surprised face. I was sure that I ordered only a piece lasagna, but there were a lot of things on the table. Selcuk bey ordered two stuffed mutton balls with a piece olive oily mixed farci for us. There is more, a portion tuna salad with a portion french fries.
I wanted to eat some dessert instead of eating a lot of things like a pig. I am already not a gourmand person, I don’t like to eat so much. So as a matter of course, I generally order food as much as I can finish. I don’t want to waste it. But this time I couldn’t do it, because it was really so much that one person – especially a person like me- never could finish it. Unfortunately, I wasted it.
The customer was really terrific at eating. He ate up all portions. What is more, he ordered two different kind of desserts with a teapot Turkish tea. Masallah to him..
I really don’t miss kebabs and salads so much but desserts. I miss milky desserts so much. Rice pudding, kazandibi (pudding with a caramel base), tavuk gogsu, chicken breast pudding and many other milky puddings.. I don’t like baklava (a kind of sweet pastry with nuts) and dessets like baklava.
I prefer to go ‘Bolulu Hasan Usta’ a famous sweet seller in Turkey ) to eat sweets instead of Gulluoglu or Seyidoglu (both are famous places for their baklava and baklava syle sweets). It is better for me to prefer milky sweets, because I can prepare these sweets thanks to ready-packet puddings. I have never thought to make baklava or sekerpare (small cakes with syrup), because it is not easy to cook them. Only a master can prepare baklava. It is also need a lot of time to prepare it. Maybe only a piece of baklava with some ice-cream can be eaten with zest, at least for me, otherwise, I am already not able to finish more than three pieces.
Turkish delight may be counted a bit heavy just like baklava when we compare milky sweets. I would like to eat Turkish-delight with a cup of Turkish coffee. it is more delicious like this.
This summer, if I get back to Turkey, I will definitely visit Bolulu or Mado to eat sweets as much I want. : ) If you have chance to visit Turkey one day, dont forget to taste Turkish sweets as well after eating your great Turkish meals.

Lemon flowers
I just saw the English lyrics of a Turkish song that I like so much. I don’t know who did translate it but translation was made totally great!
Some words, that can’t be found the exact meaning in the translated language, so here the translator explained what does it mean in the other language.
‘Zil calan etek’ has a figurative meaning in Turkish language and refers the meaning that being very happy and cheerful. The person who made the translation explained it as saying ‘(I wish) that your playfull skirts raise again (it has dual meaning, literally he talks about the skirt of his lover and metaphorically this expression means someone to feel overly joyfull)’.
it is explained the other figurative meanings as well one by one to make the lyrics more clear and understandable. Listen the song and think of the lyrics, I think you will like it so much. It is really an awesome soulful song.
Here are the best parts for me. Especially the part goes like this; I wish that I could drink the flower honey of your mouth while kissing.. :/
Far, very far away, in the south
pleasantly warm and in love in the summers
A city that is cold and without you in the winters
the city and me (we both both) feel cold
We wish that you stop by
..that you bring your season, your fruitfulness, your abundance
...and cover on us
(I wish) that your playfull skirts raise again
...that your pupils come and sit in my eyes
...that I drink the flower honey of your mouth while kissing
All lyrics are below. And the video is here.
Lemon Flowers
Far, very far away, in the south
(A city that is) pleasantly warm and in love in the summers
A city that is cold and without you in the winters
(the city) And me (both) feel cold
We wish that you stop by
..that you bring your season, your fruitfulness, your abundance
...and cover on us
(I wish) that your playfull skirts raise again (it has dual meaning, literally he talks about the skirt of his lover and metaphorically this expression means someone to feel overly joyfull)
...that your pupils come and sit in my eyes (he means they shall stare at each other)
...that I drink the flower honey of your mouth while kissing
...that I take your sin on my neck (means I shall be responsible for everything) and (take) you to my bosom (means I shall go to bed with you)
I wish that you be my poison, city, and lemon flowers at the same time (you become my everything).
I have not seen such swagger, strut, air
Hey God hear my voice make my voice heard
No one understands my loneliness (that I have no one)
Hey God reach me my god
My God hear my voice make my voice heard
She does not understand my desperation
Hey God give me a hand my god
In the remote, secluded, solitary place
In an ill-faithed course (of events)
I wish that I say a prayer longing for you
I wish that you become my insect my plant cover (vegetation) (He means even if he dies she should be cover on the grave)
that you become my prayer that comes true and I shall say amen and thank God
I wish that I lay roots in you soil
and that my life finds its end in you
