    The 1928 song C-O-N-S-T-A-N-T-I-N-O-P-L-E was about how to spell Constantinople.
    Constantinople was officially renamed Istanbul entirely in the West in 1930.
    In 1953, 500 years after the fall of Constantinople, this novelty song was produced.
    This cover of it is from 1990.

      ​@@danielmaher7108No, Istanbul sounds better. After Mehmed II conquered Istanbul in 1453, it was called Islambul, meaning the city of Islam. But then, over the years, Islam became Istanbul.Official documents also say Constantinople, but most of the public said it was Istanbul. Islamic land for 500 years. It is not the land of the Greeks. Istanbul was the one who deserved it.

    Lyrics:
    Istanbul was Constantinople. now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople.
    Been a long time gone, Constantinople.
    To Turkish delight. On a Moonlit night.
    Every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul not Constantinople.
    So if you had a date in Constantinople, she’ll be waiting in Istanbul.
    Even old New York was once new Amsterdam.
    Why they changed it I can’t say, people just liked it better that way.
    So take me back to Constantinople.
    No, you can’t go back to Constantinople.
    Been a long time gone Constantinople.
    Why did Constantinople get the works?
    That’s nobody’s business, but the Turks.
    Istanbul, Istanbul.
    Istanbul, Istanbul.
    Even old New York was once new Amsterdam. why they changed it I can’t say people just liked it better that way.
    Istanbul was Constantinople now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople.
    Been a long time gone Constantinople .
    Why did Constantinople get the works?
    That’s nobody’s business, but the turks.
    So take me back to Constantinople.
    No, you can’t go back to Constantinople.
    Been a long time gone Constantinople.
    Why did Constantinople get the works?
    That’s nobody’s business, but the Turks.
    Istanbul.

    I remember in my 7th grade history class, we talked about the early beginnings of European history, and nearly every day my teacher would torture us by playing this song.
    Great guy though
