Göksel’s new album, entitled “Ay’da Yürüdüm” (I Walked on the Moon) was released on 16th April, 2007. The first single is titled “Yarabbi Şükür” (Thanks God). The album features an interesting duet with ferman akgül, the singer of maNga and renowned Turkish rock star Teoman. The song’s title is “Taş Bebek” (Stone Doll) and according to Göksel, the song was written (together with Akgül, Alper Erinç and Teoman) to show how much the women have to suffer to be always beautiful. Göksel states that women are designed to do much more useful things than just dolling themselves up for the sake of men, so she wrote this song to remind women that beauty lays inside and not in clothes or make-up.
