Hazal Selçuk

Hazal Selçuk was only 16 years old but born from an impressive family consisting of both musical royalty and regular royalty.Most notable was of course her father Timur Selçuk, who both composed and energetically conducted the classic song "Bana bana", with which Hazal and the group Pan competed for Turkey in 1989.We learn that Timur decided to compete in order to get his passport back, that Hazal also finished third with a solo song in the same national selection, that she was the cause of the very lively song and dance, about the ethnic costumes, the tension in the band and why young and inexperienced Hazal viewed the competition differently than her more established band members, such as Arzu Ece and Vedat Sakman. She also tells us about how her father replaced members of the Swiss orchestra, how the enthusiastic commentator Jacob Dahlin invited the group to Sweden where they recorded a remix of the song and about Hazal's constant fear of being loved for being her father's daughter rather than for being herself in this very emotional and open-hearted interview where she tells us both her own story and her father's.Legend: Hazal SelçukSong: Bana Bana (Turkey 1989)Host: Emil LöfströmContact: [email protected] Facebookhttp//www.eurovisionlegends.se Hosted on Acast.
