Nine of the album's songs were written and composed by Boaz Aldujeli, making him the songwriter whose name appears the most in the album. Hande Yener served as the album's producer.

Containing 15 songs in total, Nasıl Delirdim? received positive reviews from music critics and was named as one of the best Turkish albums. Recordings were done at the T-Ekspres Studio, and the song "Kibir (Yanmam Lazım)" was chosen as the album's lead single. The second and third music video were released for the songs "Romeo" and "Yalan Olmasın" respectively. All of the music videos were directed by the album's photographer Kemal Doğulu.

After six months of preparations, Nasıl Delirdim? was released with four different covers and sold 72,000 copies. It won the Best Pop Album by a Female Artist award at the İstanbul FM Golden Awards. To promote the album, Yener gave various concerts and performed the album's songs on different programs, including Beyaz Show, MTV Extra and Saba Tümer ile Bu Gece.

Background and development

Hande Yener's change of music style with the release of Apayrı in 2006 was met with mixed reactions, as some critics praised this change while others criticized her for it.[1] In the same year, Yener mentioned that she was seeking new material for her upcoming works and said that she was no longer a singer only with dance songs useful for "putting hands in the air".[2] [3] On 8 September 2006, her second extended play Hande Maxi was released, which included elements of electronic and house music. She later mentioned that electronic music was the most favorite music style during that period.[4] [5]

In April 2007, new details about Hande Yener's new studio album were revealed. It was announced that it would be titled Nasıl Delirdim?, and that its lead single "Kibir (Yanmam Lazım)" was written and composed by Sezen Aksu.[6] After six months of preparations, the album was released on 15 May 2007 by Erol Köse Production with four different covers.[6] The album's cover and photographs were taken by Kemal Doğulu.

With Nasıl Delirdim?, Yener transitioned to the electronic music. The album also contains elements of pop, house, downtempo, dance and club music .[7] It contains 15 songs in total, which, in Yener's opinion, are about the emotions and feelings of people.[8] She wrote seven of the songs together with Boaz Aldujeli. Alper Narman, who had previously worked on the albums Sen Yoluna Ben Yoluma (2002), Aşk Kadın Ruhundan Anlamıyor (2004) and Apayrı, used the name Boaz Aldujeli on this album. Aldujeli wrote nine of the album's songs, making him the songwriter whose name appeared the most in the album. Alongside Aldujeli, Sezen Aksu, Mete Özgencil, Ertuğ Ergin and Olcayto Ahmet Tuğsuz wrote songs for the album. Özgencil, who had written and composed seven of the songs on Apayrı (2006), only wrote and composed "Sen Anla" for Nasıl Delirdim?. Hande Yener also included a new version of the song "Naciye", originally performed by Seyyal Taner, in Nasıl Delirdim?. For the song "Seni Sevi... yorumlar Yok" she used the composition of "Rapture of Love" by Anita Baker.[6]

The album was recorded at T-Ekspres Studio and sold 72,000 copies. It received the Best Pop Album by a Female Artist award the İstanbul FM Golden Awards.[9] [10] At the end of 2009, one of NTV's music judges, Atilla Şen, ranked the album fourth on the list of best albums released over the past decade.[11]

Critical reception

Nasıl Delirdim? received widespread critical acclaim from music critics. In an interview following the release of Nasıl Delirdim?, Hande Yener stated that she was satisfied with the reviews she had received on the album and said: "I've never been so congratulated on any of my albums, never before so many people have come to me from different genres. Even people who have never come to me or praised my style are congratulating me for this album and its music quality. That's why I'm very very happy."

Hürriyets Onur Baştürk found the album "very good" and published a favorable review on it.[12] Radio personality Michael Kuyucu praised Yener's collaboration with Erol Temizel, and described the re-performance of the song "Naciye" by Yener as the "most beautiful surprise". He also liked the album's cover and stated that in this album he saw a "modern and Western, but a diverge from Turkey['s music]" Hande Yener.[13] Music website Gerçek Pop also praised the album and gave it five stars out of five. It named the album as 2007's "best native album" and "one of the best Turkish albums".[14] In another review in 2010 on the website, it was mentioned that Nasıl Delirdim? and Apayrı (2006) were both a "turning point" in Yener's career. Radio personality Olcay Tanberken described the album as "terrific" and added that Yener was on top of her music career at the moment. He also found the songs "Naciye" and "Seni Sevi... yorumlar Yok" very "entertaining".[15]

Music videos

Nasıl Delirdim?s first music video was prepared for the album's lead single "Kibir (Yanmam Lazım)". The video was directed by Kemal Doğulu, and Yener's outfits for it were designed by Selim Baklacı and Hakan Yıldırım. The song succeeded in entering Turkey's music charts.[16] In the years after its release, many artists including Murat Boz, Sezen Aksu, Nihat Doğan, Gönül Yazar and Aydilge re-performed the song and included it in their albums.[17]
