In recent years, as he was known for sensitive personality, he recieved requests from Turkish Rock and Pop singers such as Bülent Ortaçgil and Teoman to cover their songs with his unique style. With public demand, and also because he couldn't turn down his fans, in conjuction with Turkish gay poet Murathan Mungan, he released and album called "Aşk Tesadüfleri Sever" entirely of covers from popular rock and pop songs, such as Garbage - The World is Not Enough (Bir Ömür Yetmez) and Rainbow - Temple of the King (Affet).
