στον Αιγόκερω for ISC-47

Manto will represent Greece in ISC-47 with the song "Ston aigokero". The song can be best described as a mythological gothic song about a woman dreaming of a unicorn making love to her somewhere in the universe.

Here is the Greek lyrics ;-)

Σπάζεις το κλουβί
μου δανείζεις τα φτερά σου,
αίσθηση φευγάτη να πετάς ψηλά
στους γαλαξίες, τα φιλιά σου, χάνομαι.
Στο αστρικό σου νέφος
το κορμί κολυμπά.

Η σκέψη ματώνει
το όνειρο τελειώνει,
μονάχη ξυπνάω
στη φυλακή μου πάω,
η μέρα ροδίζει
ο εφιάλτης τώρα αρχίζει.

Ψάχνοντας τροχιά
στον Αιγόκερω σκαλώνω
βρίσκω τις νεφέλες των ματιών σου εκεί.
Μακριά απ’ το χώρο και το χρόνο
γίνομαι στο μάγουλο σου
φεγγαροσταλιά ταντρική.

Η σκέψη ματώνει
το όνειρο τελειώνει,
μονάχη ξυπνάω
στη φυλακή μου πάω,
η μέρα ροδίζει
ο εφιάλτης τώρα αρχίζει.

Το σώμα διψάει
το σώμα στο ζητάει,
η ελπίδα απούσα
στης τρέλας μου την κούρσα,
η μέρα ροδίζει
ο εφιάλτης τώρα αρχίζει.

Greek Mystique!

The next edition of the International Songcontest will be the 45th and staged in Russia.

Mystique will sing the ISC-45 entry for Greece.

The song will be called: Gia oso zo.

GR ranks top10 finally after 10 attempts

Antonis Remos - 'Mexri to telos tou kosmou' was the ISC-44 entry for Greece.

In the semi's he struggled and ranked 8th (out of 20) but most important, Greece finally qualified after two unsuccessfull attempts. In the final Antonis gave a stunning performance and managed - allthough competition was strong- to finish in the top 10 with a 6th (out of 26) place only a few points away from autoqualifying Greec for next ISC. A result warmly welcome by the Greek, who found new spirit in ISC and already contracted the next singer to represent them. More to come....

Rallia Xristidou for ISC 41!

Just days after the lines to vote were closed for the national final for the 40th ISC and Elli Kokkinou was appointed winner it turned out there was an error with the lines for Rallia Xristindou's song "Tha'mai auto pou pote mas den ftanoume".

If all votes that came in after the line was repaired should have been counted Rallia would have won over Elli Kokkinou with a small margin. To not to desturb the procedures Elli was not disqualified but Rallia was given the opportunity to perform her song in ISC 41. Elli Kokkinou managed to reach the final, so the Greeks have high expectations on Rallia as well!

Kokkinou will do power ethno in Skopje!

Elli Kokkinou - De Pao Kala

Elli Kokkinou will compete for Greece in the 40th edition of ISC in Skopje. Elli Kokkinou won the NF with a landslide by receiving only maximum scores in the voting. Her song will be 'De pao kala' which starts traditionally but then turns into an very energetic ethno disco tune. The Greek crowd went wild when Elli performed her song live so expectations are on the rise for a good placing in the final maybe!

Greek Multiple Choice for ISC 40

For the 40th International Song Contest the Greek management not wanting to look back in disappointment over less successful entries has set up a small National Final with all dance songs. ISC is celebrating it’s 40th edition and it’s the foreign managers who are about to give the decisive votes in the Greek preselection to that 8th lustrum. The songs competing all have more or less ethnic influences and of course Greece sings in the beautiful Greek language once again. ISC-38 singer Ammos is given a second chance. These are the 4 female artists and their songs in the competition:

Tamta – Agapise me
Ammos - Gyrise piso
Elli Kokkinou - De Pao Kala
Rallia Xristidou (pictured) - Tha'mai auto pou pote mas den ftanoume
