Milyonlarca Kuştuk...

Milyonlarca Kuştuk... is the seventh studio album by Turkish singer Candan Erçetin. It was released on 3 June 2013 by Pasaj Müzik. It was Erçetin's first major work since the 2011 release of Aranjman 2011, and her first studio album after Kırık Kalpler Durağında. It is a pop album, and like Erçetin's previous works contains elements of Balkan music. Milyonlarca Kuştuk... was recorded and produced over the course of 12 months, and has 15 songs in total. Erçetin was the album's main songwriter and wrote nine of its songs on her own. The album also features the songs "Yaralı Gönlüm", originally performed by Zeki Müren, and "Herkes Gibisin", based on a poem by Nâzım Hikmet. The two songs were recomposed and performed by Erçetin. The album's first song and music video, "Milyonlarca Kuştuk...", is based on the legend of Simurgh and discusses the falling of human soul into the worldly traps and losing its way. Music critics gave the album positive reviews in general.. The promotion for the album was postponed due to Taksim Gezi Park protests and it was initially promoted only on the singer's official website and on the website of its production company.
