[jewturk]

how stupid are you they tell turkish dervish and zurna stop telling fuckin kurdish arab or something. doesnt matter they music good sound its great and we alyaws listening. i been visit perth last month

[suisseTKD]

Dear don't hate.

What does Dervish mean? Do you know that? Event the Word Derwish is a Persian/Kurdish word, these are Kurdish minorities living in turkey. that's a fact.. but okey when you think, turks also play this instroment, than its okey..

greets

[jewturk]

for those who doesnt know what dervish means A Dervish or Darvesh[1] (from Persian درویش, Darvīsh)[2] is someone treading a Sufi Muslim ascetic path or "Tariqah", known for their extreme poverty and austerity, similar to mendicant friars in Christianity or Hindu/Buddhist/Jain sadhus.

Dar in Persian means "a door", so Dervish literally means "one who opens the doors".[1] The word is also related to terms for "ascetic" in some languages

[suisseTKD]

the tunes are Kurdish (kurds live in persia,turkey,irak syria) tunes which is used in folcloric songs and on weddings. : )

[spoco2]

Um... no, it's Turkish. It's a Turkish zurna and Turkish battle drum and Turkish dances... so, you know... maybe you should research a bit before claiming it's korean.

[MKRapper]

wheres the drummer at the beginning?

[MadeinAussieland]

The drummer in the video and the studio drummer are two different people, it's just a session musican who's drumming in the video, he's not a real member of Eskimo Joe per se.

In the studio Joel does the drums but live he does guitar with Stuart whilst they have a touring guy.

It used to be Dan Bull, not sure if it still is. It looks sorta like him.

[valeskagsy]

I agree with theDARKangelKIRA person and the inspiration has mostly come from the turks, ahh kurdish people tsk tsk

[Soccer8Gerrard]

I think his idea of big landscape and explosions would of been awesome too

[ked1983]

Loving this guys - welcome back! Kav, you're looking far too hot for your own good ;-)

[ssfrwd]

[Buddha117]

where is the drummer at the start???

[Shan4Curry]

Hahaha, mad! It's kinda inspiring watching these behind-the-scenes clips :)

[theDARKangelKIRA]

soz mz427 but this is turk music.....ur right they are similar......but all in all this is turk....LONG LIVE TURKEY

[mz427]

The instrument in this song is not only Turkish but also Kurdish. The Arabs use it as well but they use the drums more. So in essence it is a middle eastern instrument. Dont go thinking it is only Turkish because it isnt! I was born and raised in Australia with a Kurdish background and I cannot let the Turks think that this is their bloody instrument because it isnt.

Love the song guys... the clip is incredible. Can't wait for Inshalla! Xoxo.
