Can Bonomo

Can Bonomo is a DJ, producer and musician who after a successful first album is now to take the stage for Turkey in Baku with his catchy number Love Me Back.

Can Bonomo started playing guitar at the age of 8, when he was introduced to music with the inspiration of his neighbour. Throughout his secondary school and university years, Bonomo, together with amateur music bands, staged several concerts in Izmir and Istanbul. Finally he said, “I’m ready”, stepped up to the plate and started working on his first album. Following two years of hard work, in January 2011, Can Bonomo's first album, “Meczup”, was released.


Can Bonomo, who is a native of Izmir, has been involved with music since his secondary school and high school years. At the age of 17; Bonomo decided to move to Istanbul and entered into the music business as a sound engineer. Bonomo studied at the Department of Film and Television in Bilgi University, during which he dj’d at Radyo Klas, Number One FM and Radio N101. After working on the radio, Bonomo moved into television and produced TV shows at Number One TV and MTV.


Can Bonomo's music changed dimension when he wrapped up his demo cd into the cover page of a book and sent it to Can Saban. Can Saban, who is the producer, musical director and arranger of the album “Meczup”, is also the director of the video clips from the album. Bonomo and Saban, continuing the friendship built during the first album, are still working together, now as the founding partners of the company “Can Biraderler”.

Lyrics of Love Me Back

Oh, hey, hey!
Baby love me back today
Never ever sink my ship
And sail away

Oh, oh, ah!
Baby don't shut me down
Give me all the love I need
And I'll be gone

I'm a lonely sailor
Drinking the night away
My ship is made from hope
She's searching for your bay
But you don’t care

Hop on to my ship baby
I'll make you fly
You love me and you know that baby
Don't you lie

Like me like I like you and say Na na na...

Oh, oh, oh!
We need a bit of Rock'n Roll
Baby don't you crush my soul
And make me fall

Oh, hey, hey!
Baby love me back today
Don’t you ever sink my ship
And sail away

Hop on to my ship baby
I'll make you fly
You love me and you know that baby
Don't you lie

Like me like I like you and say Na na na...

Pirates, high seas, cautions, cannons and potions
A sailor’s passion can always conquer the oceans
Sing with me my children

Hop on to my ship baby
I'll make you fly
You love me and you know that baby
Don't you lie

Like me like I like you and say Na na na...
Haydiii

Nan nay, nan nan nan nay nan nan nan nay...
Oh, hey, hey!
Chérie aime-moi en retour
Ne fais jamais couler mon bateau
Pour après prendre le large
Oh, oh, ah!
Chérie ne fais pas la sourde oreille
Donne-moi tout l’amour dont j’ai besoin
Et je disparaîtrai au loin

Je suis un marin solitaire
A boire jusqu’au petit matin
Mon bateau est fait d’espoir
A la recherche de ta baie

Grimpe sur mon bateau, chérie
Je te ferai voler
Tu m’aimes et tu le sais, chérie
Surtout ne mens pas

Aime-moi tel que je t’aime et dit Na nan a…
Oh, oh, oh!
On a besoin d’un peu de Rock’n Roll
Chérie, n’anéantis pas mon âme
Pour après me laisser tomber

Oh, hey, hey!
Chérie aime-moi en retour maintenant
Ne fais jamais couler mon bateau
Pour après prendre le large


Grimpe sur mon bateau, chérie
Je te ferai voler
Tu m’aimes et tu le sais, chéri
Surtout ne mens pas
Apprécie-moi comme je t’apprécie et dit Na nan a…

Pirates, haute mer, prudence, canons et potions
La passion d’un marin peut toujours conquérir les océans
Chantez avec moi mes enfants
Nan nay, nan nan nan nay nan nan nan nay...

Grimpe sur mon bateau, chérie
Je te ferai voler
Tu m’aimes et tu le sais, chéri
Surtout ne mens pas
Apprécie-moi comme je t’apprécie et dit Na nan a…
Haydiiiii

Nan nay, nan nan nan nay nan nan nan nay...
