He is also known in Europe and the Americas, especially for the song Şımarık (Spoilt/Kiss Kiss/Chanson Du Bisou/Besos). This was reincarnated as Kiss Kiss by Holly Valance after Sezen Aksu sold the music rights. This song is also rumoured to have ended the successful working relationship between Tarkan and Aksu as they fell into dispute about the ownership of the copyright to Şımarık. They had collaborated on most of Tarkan's hits in Turkey and Europe. Another hit single was Şıkıdım (Shake).

Tarkan is also character of a popular Turkish comic series in 1960s. This is where Tarkan's parents adopted his name from.

Ok so his English album is coming out in April 7, 2006 according to wikipedia and April 13, 2006 according to amazon.com . I really enjoyed the Bounce Single but I'm very happy that a full English album is coming out. I updated his biography with the cover of his new cd and the track listings....here is the cover just in case
