i think the last line of the song, "I lean into a box of pine, identify the kid as mine" is the best line of the song. Morrissey truly portrays the song as being sang from the POV of a father who just wants to see his son, but at the end sees that he was too late and he is now dead
how come more people not know about this, the song and the city itself is gorgeous.. i live in Istanbul, and this is one of a song that i listen to when i wander around the narrow streets of Istanbul.. such mesmerising city.~
world peace was newest album when I seen him live at Manchester Arena, and when he played Istanbul he looked and extended his arm out in my direction - I was and am the lost son 🥲💔
once, in istanbul, i stole some private tapes from a party. when i watch them back at home, it's tears of joy: two turkish boys in a beautiful back alley full of blooming cherrytrees, kissing each other while watching a street cat give birth to it's young. don't know who filmed it, but i want to believe it's morrisey's son from istanbul... perfect soundtrack for sure...
Greetings, writing from Istanbul city.. "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 In 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...
My mother was born in Istanbul Bakirköy, I was born in Rome Italy. Istanbul (Constantinople, Byzantium) was built by Romans and conquered by Ottomans 29. May 1453. Whatever...dunno what i wanted to write...but...ah...VISIT ISTANBUL! ; ) But...Greek is nice to...

Morissey ile vegan sanatçıları araştırırken tanışmıştım, çünkü vegan olmayan sanatçıları benimsemem, çok nadirdir. İlk şarkı tarzı bana uygun değildi ilgimi çekmedi ama sonrasında tekrar karşıma çıktı sözlerini araştırdığımda kendisinde çok şey buldum ve kendisini çok sevdim, yine az önce onun bir ekran kağıdını ararken bir röportaj yazısına denk geldim veganizm ile ilgili bir sitede ve "İstanbul" adlı şarkısının olduğunu öğrendim.
For a while these ezan prayers were actually in Turkish, as Atatürk intended. The “Democratic Party” switched it back to Arabic as part of their populist pandering. Quite a pity. Hard to change back without another Atatürk, and that happens once in every alternate timeline in the universe 😊
I am from İstanbul. I love you Morrissey
"Moonlight jumping through the trees, sunken eyes avoiding me" is a really beautiful line

After all these years I keep finding new Morrissey songs.
His voice alone can turn any song into a great gem
This is one of Morrissey’s best. I always say I feel so blessed to have lived in a time that he has made music.
istanbulu keşfederken dinleyeceğim bu şarkıyı
ağzım açık kaldı morrissey babam teşekkürler artık denize bakarkene kulağımda söylersin
BEAUTIFUL!❤

I saw him in LA last month at the Hollywood Bowl. He was so great, I listen to his music all the time.
Morrissey sounds ever so good no matter the band or its members...
More people need to listen to this cat.... Been down since the smiths
Another great track....Thank You Mozfather!!

Easily a single out of time. this is a classic lost in the era of no charts & music tv...

Why is this one of the few albums of his not on Spotify or Amazon music 😩
I wondered why
Unfortunately he had and probably still has some problems with Harvest Records that made this album.
my friend who likes the smiths did not like this album but i managed to find one good song (istanbul) among all the others
As a Turkish Morrisseh enjoyer and a Smiths fan, I've been listening to this song for years now. Funny how I never got to see Istanbul.
If Oscar wilde was around now, he'd be a morrisey fan
I am and I am a fan
@@benhughes3602 You're Oscar Wilde?
no

Just great,moz is fantastico
Şarkıyı haberlere çıktığında duymuştum. O günden beri dinliyorum ama keşfedilmedi.

Greetings, writing from Istanbul city..
"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
In 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...
Tesekkurler:)

Eğer müziğini dinlediğin sanatçının yaşayış biçimine takılıyorsan Morrisey aşırı faşit ve ırkçıdır, haberin olsun.
Sonzaço!!!❤

Someone can translate the opening words? Seems like a turkish prayer.
It's just the regular Arabic prayer you hear 5 times a day that says "God is great", basically like church bells inviting people to pray
@@onuraslanfb07 thank you,
