Istanbul - They Might Be Giants. MTV Europe, 1990



Uploaded by: astralbee
Video Description:
Welcome to the video that has become a full time occupation for me. Every day I remove hundreds of comments from angry Turks/Greeks who think this lighthearted cover of a 1950's song is an attack on their political views. In fact, it is just Brooklyn's ambassadors of love They Might Be Giants performing 'Istanbul Not Constantinople' live on MTV Europe in 1990.
