"Turkey's Eurovision 2010 Song: 'We Could Be The Same' by maNga
Opponents of Turkey's bid to join the E.U. portray it as an alien culture with social and religious beliefs that are decidedly un-European. Following his election as French president in 2007, Nicolas Sarkozy said Europe 'must give itself borders' and declared that Turkey 'has no place' in the organization. In 'We Could Be The Same,' Turkish rap-rock band maNga begs to differ. With their perfect English, well-produced rips and suggestive lyrics, they narrow the social distance between Turks and their European counterparts, and make it clear that Turkey's youth have their eyes locked firmly on the West."
