Grup Tekkan: Shunshine in Germany

Germany is laughing about & at these three lads from a forgotten town in West Germany. Born to Turkish parents, they happily sing away in their Turkish-German creole: where are you my shunshine / i'd like to let you knowowow, you're the only one that I respect!


They recorded a masterpiece of a video - wearing fine white coats, way bigger than I would have worn in my dorkiest times. The video earned them an invitation to Germany's popular TV show TV Total, and the Blogger who started the whole thing is taking his sudden surge in visitor traffic with a grain of salt: Dear 12,000 new visitors: here's blogging without video for you: one writes something, nobody is getting it.

Ismael (18), Selcuk (17) and Fatih (17) have their minute of fame, if not everybody's respect. I think they're still looking to seal the deal for their first real record.
