The song #Istanbul (not #Constantinople) was written in 1953 to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the fall of Constantinople and recorded by the Four Lads. It's very similar to I. Berlin's Puttin' on the Ritz (1929) and was covered in 1990 by They Might be Giants. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wcze....
