THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)"



Uploaded by: tubmanss
Video Description:
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night
Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople
So if you've a date in Constantinople
She'll be waiting in Istanbul
Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way
So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks
Istanbul (Istanbul)
Istanbul (Istanbul)
Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks
So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks
Istanbul

Your empire was the only empire thats been destroyed. It was an inside revolution that took place in Turkey. They self willingly adopted democracy in 1923 you ignorant dipshit. I donno from which hole of yours you pulled 1918 out of. Who rules the world now bitch?! Get your facts right study harder next time..
I study teh history ... ( 3 days ago by Sviolinist)
I study teh history. The Ottoman Empire was known for a long, long time as the "Sick Man" because it was forever shrinking and loosing influence. That's the truth as far as I know. All this stuff about it changing quickly and dramatically in the 20s is rubbish. It was well on the way to disintegration for a long time and was no surprise.
K I might have ... ( 3 days ago by Sviolinist)
K I might have discarded accidently.. anyway.. ur both right. He didnt say the adoption of democracy as the specific end to the Ottoman Empire. By 1918, I assume he was referring to the effects of the Great War which completely crippled the Ottoman Empire.

It's simpler than that. Constantinople means of Constitine.Constitene was leader of the roman empire or something. And did not own Istanbul so they changed the name. Something like that.
