from a Turkish kanto


Ali Beyin karısı kaçtı gece yarısı!

Yumurtanın sarısi düştü kırıldı yarısı!

In Turkish cinemas - owned mostly by Armenians (or Armenian converts like Selim Naşit Özcan) in the 1920-1930s - there were varieté song performances and live orchestras that acted out in the film breaks. Usually very funny themes were sung. Shamram Kelleciyan (Şamram Hanım) was the most successful kanto singer of Istanbul from 1900 - 1925.
