THank you!!!

I never saw the Kazantzidis clip before. Filmed in Thessaloniki from what I could see and the countryside of central Greece. Such a powerful song, as a poem it could stand next to any of the great metaphysical poems of Donne and Herbert. And to think the lady who wrote it sold it for 200 drachmae so she could get the money to gamble!!!

hope the link works.

Glykeria is so woooww!

[LENA]

I saw that one too but I prefer the one I posted for the music and the way she sung it...and above all for the lyrics. Glykeria sung different lyrics from the one I posted ... and those lyrics matter for me...were sung once to me by someone special to me!

Glad we enjoy that song!

And here is the Greek version of that song iceman!! Lovely song and I can see why it reminds you Cyprus.

Most of the songs are related with Cyprus or people from Cyprus.

I can see this thread becoming very special one or a disaster!

The Greek version is so much better than the English version.

Fantastic Filitsa!

Is it I who is fantastic, Pheonix, or the video?

Here's another. The musicians are not quite as skillful, but the song is pretty and brings back memories of one particular Cyprus summer.



and ... ha ha ha ... another:

By the way Lena the woman singing is not the 61 year old. The blonde woman in the background is!

The blond? You must be kidding me!

Yes, Lena. A living Fossil.

Do you know that one GR !!
The Cypriot "slang " tsiattista " , my all time greats , Oh those wonderful weddings that lasted for 3 days , and the girls all looking pretty in their best dresses , us boys having a quiet smoke away from prying eyes !!
Seriously though my all time great Greek song , one that I first heard while helping out at my uncles seaside restaurant in Famagusta , right on the beach , Alasia , VRAHO VRAHO TON KAIMO MOU , always reminds me of Alasia , had such lovely memories there , perhaps the reason I love Kourion beach so much a lot of similarities , and here is VP telling us to forget this part of Cyprus , a part that has so many memories for thousands of Cypriots ! I was born in Paphos but after the earthquake of 1953 followed by a few years in Limassol I ended up in Agios Loukas , Famagusta , hence Alasia Beach Restaurant !
It has its good points , wine has , makes you sentimental ! Cheers !
