let's say, for the sake of an argument, that όταν εργάζεσαι ούτε φαντάζεσαι τι κάνω μόνη μου μεστό σαλόνι μου. would it not then stand to reason that, purely hypothetically, σε σκέφτομαι έντονα; if i were, then doubtlessly δεν πάω πουθενά, since in conclusion πολύ καλά περνώ στον καναπέ μου εγώ. so... maybe consider that next time, liberals.
Posting extremely late, but this was the Christmas card I made for one of my best friends from high school! ^_^ He’s Greek and told me that his favorite Greek Christmas song is Hristougenna by Despina Vandi, so I drew that for his card this year based on the music video for it! :D
"Opa Opa" is a song originally by Greek singer Notis Sfakianakis, released as a single from his second album Ise Ena Pistoli in 1992. It is a laïko dance song and was written and produced by singer Giorgos Alkaios.
The song has been covered by a number of artists, taking it to further success abroad. In 1999, Swedish-Greek duo Antique covered it as their debut single with Eurodance elements, reaching the top ten across Scandinavia. Despina Vandi recorded an English-language cover, which reached the top 20 of several markets in Europe and North America.
Antique is a Greek singing duo consisting of Helena Paparizou and Nikos Panagiotidis, originating from Sweden and combining Greek popular music and lyrics with a Nordic dance-pop beat. Both Paparizou and Panagiotidis were born and raised in Sweden by Greek parents. In 2001, Antique represented Greece at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song "(I Would) Die For You", ending with a third place, and in 2005 Paparizou went solo and won the contest for Greece with "My Number One". After 19 years of hiatus the group reunited in March 2022 and released a cover hit song from 90's meant to be their comeback in music industry.
On behalf of our girls and of course, on my own, know that each of your reactions has been read and appreciated.
You have been many. We tried our best.
I will try and find the time to answer all of you, but if I don't, know you are all special and loved.
I have many Anons in my inbox right now. I am also pretty much doubtful I will be able to properly answer them tonight. Despina Vandi Anon - I loved your submission, it reminded me of a cherished fantasy novel : maybe bear with me a little more?
Hi! I think I do this with everyone but I think is cool.
What songs from your home country do you think the guys from Joker Out and Blind Channel are?
okay this one is gonna be interesting and a bit hard. like, i know lots of greek songs but i don't really like greek music, especially the one of recent years. anyway i'll try my best with this one (can't promise explanations though)
starting with joker out
Bojan: idk how to explain this but he could definitely write a song like that so it suits him
Kris: radiates badass girl power and Kris rage (don't ask idk how to explain this). i can also totally picture him dancing to it
Nace: another choice i can't quite explain. let's say it's like he says a huge fuck off to whatever he didn't like about himself?
Jure: no comment, you probably know this one anyway
Jan: at first i chose this as a joke but the 2-3 greeks in the fandom will probably understand why this song is so Jan
moving on to blind channel
Niko: kinda edgy, kinda sweet just like him and whatever he writes from time to time
Olli and Aleksi: not counting this as a "them" song, but for some reason i can fit it individually to both of them. this is based on vibes idk what else to say
Joonas: it just... screams his name(?)
Joel: okay this one is a song in english but the band is greek so i guess it counts lol. anyway this is very Joel
Tommi: the chorus starts with the sentence "why don't you leave me alone?". i think this explains enough given the circus of a band he's in <3
