Neеџe Karabг¶cekв Kulaklarд±n Г‡д±nlasд±n May 2026

Composed by with lyrics by Ülkü Aker , "Kulakların Çınlasın" is built on a foundation of traditional Turkish scales (makams) blended with Western orchestral arrangements. The song’s title refers to the Turkish folk belief that when your ears ring, someone is talking about or thinking of you.

The lyrics tell a story of a "mysterious and unsolvable love puzzle" between two people who, despite being estranged ( dargın ), remain deeply connected. Karaböcek’s emotive delivery emphasizes this paradox—a love so unique that "no one else will ever love you as much as I do".
