Greeks will have to choose between Sarbel, Christos Dantis and Tamta in the greatest music contest, to represent Greece in Eurovision. Greece final will be on February 28.

According to the LGR web-site: "Sarbel will be singing 'Yasou Maria'. The title would suggest a clever ploy to gather 'Maria' votes from nice Greek girls who tune in. The singer describes it as a "Latino, ethnic-tinged track, with Greek elements". Greek Eurovision winner Christos Dantis who composed 'My Number One' will have a solo effort, a cool dance track, with an equally unique sounding title 'You are No Madonna' as he co-writes with Natalia Germanou. The lone female contestant Tamta is to enter with an 'ethnic-tinged atmposheric' effort with song-writers Nikos Terzis (Shake It) and Giannopoulos."

Sarbel is a good singer, the song is a slight dissapointment, not very big on originality, similarities to 'Shake it', the pace is a tad too fast when it comes to Eurovision success. Lyrics aren't the easiet to sing along...

Sarbel for Cyprus 2008! Eurovision... what do you think?

Sarbel - Yasou Maria 50.32%
Tamta - With Love 28.37%
Christos Dantis - No Madonna 21.31%

London Cypriot artist Sarbel is the massive favourite according to listeners. The 'Maria' votes from nice Greek girls is a plus.

Eurovision has been nothing but entertaining political rubbish since Abba! Love those blue sequin leggings.
