Eurovision 1991 Turkey

Can, Izel and Reyhan performing "Iki dakika", the Turkish entry at the 1991 Eurovision Song Contest.
A very fun song from Turkey, and one that I love very much. They're having such a good time performing the song, and it radiates out from them. Once again, Turkey wins my heart.
(Notice the Italian flag gimmick - I must admit I first figured it out when putting this video together.)

The introduction by Toto Cutugno is included because it is absolutely priceless. Enjoy ;=)

@vimsegiraffen Ah right :). Also, it's weird that there's a keyboard on stage that no-one's playing. Hehe.

@ujustgotpwned2008 This is just guessing, but I think 60 or 70 % of the instruments from 1973 until 1998 which was as a part of the 6 peope on stage (not the main orchestra) was not live, but just visable to fulfill the additional backing track rules. But most of those efforts also added some live orchestration to it. At the same we also have to keep in mid that a lot of songs didn't use additional backing tracks at all and were 100 % live.
