Greece GREECE 2015 - Maria Elena Kyriakou - One Last Breath

Re: GREECE 2015

Barrice is so so soo good. But that zorba part is just horrible..

Always when the zorba part comes I feel such an embarrassment. Maybe it would be better if the singer would dance a bit over there...not sure though. Otherwise it's my favourite song out of those.

Re: GREECE 2015

I loved the beginning of Ela but the rest is such a mess !

I quite like the rythm of Jazz and Sirtaki. However, I can bet the next Greek representative will be either Marie-Elena or Shava.

Who cares? The Europeans won't understand a thing!

I understand every single word, but I LOVE it!

Re: GREECE 2015

Well, the truth is that we won with way worse lyrics that those of Thomai's song

Re: GREECE 2015

My favorite is Barrice. His song is very nice. I like it.

The funny thing is that people who accuse Thomai's lyrics, are fans of Eleni Foureira,Tus etc

Re: GREECE 2015

For all of you guys, here is the translation of "Jazz & sirtaki", made by me, a non-native Greek speaker, so that you could judge the song consciously and tell if you like it or not.

Become a party tonight
Come and give me
The greatest love in the world
So I can remember
Only the smiles and the sun
The embrace is tight
And it hurts

Chorus:

Oh sweet night,
With jazz and sirtaki
Stars and kisses
On our blue island
God and August are friends
They sprinkle my lips with white wine
I go out into the light
And run on the sand
Come with me too
Don't sit down

Speak to me with words
With words that burn
I have flied up and my eyes cry
Only you undo
All my sadness ()
Oh my God, how much I missed you

Chorus x2
[MENTION=12033]Nicholas123[/MENTION] or [MENTION=5532]GRE[/MENTION] or any Greek forum user, I'm waiting for an approval

This is called love for the Greek language.

Sounds like a ritual. What sort of witchcraft are you using this year, Greece???

When I heard Shaya's song I was like "Emmelie de Forest, is that you?"

Re: GREECE 2015

I've listened to full versions and I rank like this:

1. Maria Elena Kiriakou - "One Last Breath" 10/10 - fantastic ballad, should win hands down and color of vocal is AWESOME, like it has some "sand" in her voice.. This is the best Greek NF entry in years and if wins will be one of my fave entries from Greece EVER!
2. Shaya Hansen - "Sunshine" 7,5/10 - quite cheap, but can enjoy it as a guilty pleasure somehow, music is interesting, has some real Greek music ethnic elements
3. Thomai Apergi & Legend - "Jazz and Sirtaki" 6/10...also interesting but not so for me...thus I gave 6..
4. C:Real - "Crash and burn" 4,5/10 - messy, don't like it..
5. Barrice - "Ela" 2/10 - quite horrible, I dunno why I gave 2 actually..

The thing I hate most about "Ela" is this cheap Zorba rip-off.

Agree! :?

Even C: Real did not avoid it for the first time in their 19 year career!

I wonder if all greek contestants are forced by our broadcaster to include to their songs some greek flavour :?

Re: GREECE 2015

Maria Elena, Shaya and Thomai & Legend does have the three best songs IMO, one of these and Greece should do enough to qualify! I like Shaya the best, I really think it would bring some party in Vienna!
