Music, Movies, and Books

Music is an inseparable part of my life. I have songs for every event,moment
I like 70's 80's and 90's music both Turkish and English.Queen is one of my favourite bands.I wish I could listen Freddie Mercury live.The best song ever :

The Smiths,Beatles,The Doors are also bands that I never give up listening.
And of course Depeche Mode! They still succeed to make wonderful songs. I am looking forward to see them live in January in Barcelona :)
Radiohead,Björk,Muse,Sigur Ros and many other singers,bands have a place in my life.

I prefer watching movies or series than watching TV for all the time. Here is a summary of movies that i like :)
