BARIS AKARSU
'' BARIS'S MEMORIAL WEEK / BARIS AKARSU CULTURE and
ART FESTIVAL ''
( 29 JUNE - 4 JULY / AMASRA - TURKEY )
BARIS's OFFICIAL WEB SITE :
www.baris-akarsu.com
BARIS AKARSU was born on the 29th of June 1979 in Zonguldak from the happy marriage of his mother
Hatice Akarsu with his father Selahattin Akarsu. He has a sister named Nesrin. Akarsu family named
him BARIS which means PEACE and in his father's own words : ''He had this name to bring peace to the
country and to the whole world, which is more and more needed''. He and his sister, Nesrin, grew up
in Amasra, Turkey, where the family moved soon after his birth. Akarsu’s parents still live in
Amasra.
BARIS completed his elementary, secondary and high-school educations in Amasra.
When he was in high-school, he was a fond of sailing and he decided to do this sport professionally
in Amasra Sailing Club.
His interest in music was started in the early ages of his short life that was full-of-love and
breadth.
He used to point out that he remembered himself walking on the streets of Amasra with the
block-flute in his hand when he was in the elementary school.
However, his real acquaintance with music was with the influence of the musicians who used to come
to Amasra for live performances and this is when he started to play the guitar and the harmonica.
Cem Karaca, Ruhi Su were the artists who were continuosly listened in the home of Akarsu Family.
Starting from those days, BARIS AKARSU continues to listen the rock, hard-rock and heavy-metal
groups of the 70s and 80s and he has continued to do so until the end of his short life.
Amasra is well-known with it's beaches and natural settings.
Beaches of Amasra were the first places where he learned to play guitar with his friends and made
his first stage debut also took place on the same venue.
After graduating from high school, BARIS also worked as an animator and as a musician in Antalya.
Later he performed at clubs/bars, local televisions and radios in Ankara and Karadeniz Ereglisi for
a period of 4 years. Then, he decided to go back to Amasra.
It was this period of time when BARIS AKARSU returned to Amasra and when several of his friends
encouraged him to participate in the 2004 debut of the reality television program called Akademi
Türkiye (The contestants are selected through auditions nation-wide. They stayed in a house called
“Akademi” and spend their whole time practicing songs, acting and other activities that are
related to perform music.)
BARIS decided to apply because he saw an opportunity to get trained by professional trainers. In
July 2004 BARIS won the highly publicized “Akademi Turkiye” and together with this, he fell into
the hearts of the millions in Turkey not only as a musician, singer and performer, but also with
his wonderful character and always-friendly behaviours for every one he met.
Soon after winning Akademi Turkiye, BARIS released his first album “Islak Islak” and on August
2006, he released his second album “Düsmeden Bulutlarda Kosmam Gerek” both produced by Seyhan
Music. He has music videos for his songs “Islak Islak”, “Kimdir O”, “Mavi” and
“Amasra” from his first album.
He also has music videos for his songs “Vurdum En Dibine Kadar” and “Yaz Demedim” from his
second album.
“Ben” and “Yeter Be” from his second album were written and composed by him.
During 2006, BARIS was the lead-role actor in the television serial named “Yalanci Yarim” (which
was broadcasted all year long and continued during 2007 until we lost him with one of the most
unfortunate car accidents took place in Bodrum) and at the same time he gave many live concerts in
several parts of the country and with every day passing, he added thousands of fans from all age
groups. He also gave many charity concerts for the children of leukemia for whom BARIS cared so much
and tried to provide them the best he could.
He has a lot of fans whom called themselves BAG ( = The Ones Who Understand BARIS). They have
supported him since he joined the Akademi Türkiye. BARIS called them : ''My big loving family''.
It is still hard to believe that we have lost him... We have lost a wonderful musician, performer
and we lost the future number-one rock star... but above all, we lost a great man, a wonderful
person, a benevolent, breadth human-being !
We lost the person with a personality that is very rare to find and impossible to be replaced and
his absence will always be felt.
We lost him on 4th of July 2007 after 5 days of deep coma in Private Bodrum Hospital which he was
brought after having a car accident on the same day he was born and on the way to his 29th birthday
party in Bodrum.
Millions prayed for him to survive while he was in coma in the hospital for five days after the
car-accident.
But we lost him !
We lost him while he was getting ready for his third album and when he was planning to make his
place certain on the top !
Thousands of people attended his funeral in Amasra ... thousands of people cried after him while
millions of people were sharing the same feelings while watching his funeral on the Television.
Rest in Peace BARIS !
Maybe you lived a very short life and maybe there were many things you planned to do.
However, you have showed to everyone all of the ethical values which people seemed to forget.
You have been the best sample for everyone !
Thank you for all you have done and thank you for the values you have showed and added to our
lives.
We will never forget you BARIS !
We will always remember you with your smiling face !
WE LOVE YOU...

♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ PRECIOUS CHILD ♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
A child is such a precious gift
To love to hold to treasure
A very special miracle
Who gives so much pleasure
But when that gift is taken back
And our hearts are cold and torn
Amid this grief and sorrow
We are so glad that they were born
For they have a precious legacy
Even though we are far apart
The love they left behind them
Will stay forever in our hearts

Since Heaven has become your home
I sometimes feel I'm so alone;
and though we now are far apart
you hold a big piece of my heart.
I never knew how much I'd grieve
when it was time for you to leave,
or just how much my heart would ache
from that one fragment you would take.
God lets this tender hole remain
reminding me we'll meet again,
and one day all the pain will cease
when He restores this missing piece
He'll turn to joy my every tear
and when I wear this necklace near
it will become my simple way
to treasure our Reunion Day.

TRIBUTE FOR THURSDAY 5.11.09
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
The size of sadness
Can you measure our pain?
It reaches the stars and back again
Can you count our tears?
They are as many as winter rain
Can you weigh our emptiness?
The world and more would come to less
With no hope of sun tomorrow
That's how we see our sorrow
Add all together -The size of sadness
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
TRIBUTE FOR FRIDAY 6.11.09.
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
Having you not with me
Hurts more and more each day
Although I feel a closeness
In a very special way
Even as I go to sleep
Every thought is of you
And I never thought i'd miss you
In quite the way I do
So i'm hoping that these words
May some how let you know
That you're in my heart forever
And i'll always love you so
The one and only thing
That helps me with the pain
Is dreaming of the time
When I will see you once again...
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
TRIBUTE FOR SATURDAY 07.1109
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
My love is with you
Oh What can I say?
My heart is empty without you each and every day.
The Angel wings you wear must be so grand,
if only I could reach out and touch your hand,
maybe then we could say goodbye,
which would help dry the tears that I cry
Now I know that’s impossible for us to do,
so let’s make a deal just you and me.
When I look to the stars at night,
you look for me with all your might,
when you see me just shine real bright,
together we can send our love
and say Good Night.
I would like to wish you all a very good weekend and God Bless all our Angels and all our BRAVE HERO'S who have Lost Their Lives.
With love as always Linda.xxx

They never leave your side
For theyre only a thought away
They are your ♥ANGEL♥ guide
♥ LOVE ALWAYS VICKY xxxx ♥
