In my point of view, this is the best dance-pop entry after Norway this year. I'm loving it. xup
I just a want a HQ version. xpray

I don't actually see this song do good... I don't know why all the fuss is about, song doesn't have quality at all... They only have sexy meter and a half singer, and really annoying chorus..

I don't get how "Secret Combination" was considered superb and this one trash. It's very similar in style so it's a mystery to me why the negative responses to the song.

Who even said "Secret Combination" was superb? It's trashy, and badly performed.... If she was selected in 2009, she would end up probably in 15-20th place...

It was a fan favorite, that is what I'm referring to.

I'm not claiming it was great but it was incredibly popular Pre ESC

Well yes, it was.... That's the thing I hate about ESC, that period... if the stage is sparkly and if you are able to dance to the song(and of course , if sexy girl is involved)... TOP 3

Don't even compare Secret Combination with Aphrodisiac. Secret Combination was something fresh and addictive (at least that's what it made me feel, I was addicted to that year's ESC just because of that song), Aphrodisiac is something repetitive with nothing innovative at all. The numbers will speak.... I don't see it getting a top10, but it will be in the final I think.

You can say whatever you want about the song, but not about Eleftheria being a "half singer" or something like that... Just find videos of her performing amazing ballads in youtube with her great voice, and I'm not gonna say anything else. I watched her today in a tv show, she perfectly sang some great Greek songs along with a piano, and I said to myself "why she has to go to ESC with such a cheap song? Why???"

if it was trashy, and badly perform, Kalomoira woulnd't win the 1st semi, and come 3rd on the final. If you judge a song (general) that's not means you're right..:)

I can't get this...what means cheap ? It's a typical greek dance song, it's not a masterpiece of music(that goes to Cyprus too, it's almost the same).
Kalomoira's song was a typical dance pop song, BUT Kalomoira was perfect dancing, so cute, and the whole performance result was superb!

I honestly didn't care for "Secret Combination" much either, mostly because I hate Kalomiras voice. The song in itself was quite good though, the performance on the other hand was quite trashy though.

Watch Eleftheria as an actor in this Cypriot tv-series, where she appeared as a guest last year:

There are rumors that Eleftheria is in a relationship with the Cypriot actor Andreas Georgiou.

He was playing in these tv-series and he was also with her in the NF and celebrating with her when the result was announced. He was asked by Star Channel ( :lol: ) and he said that they are only friends because they are from the same area (he's from Ayia Napa). But in his official facebook, he has as profile picture Eleftheria's photo, this can say a lot! :lol:
The camera of Star Channel found them also together in the club that Anna Vissi appears, having fun together. Now Star Channel will have a lot of work! :lol:
This website is talking about this too: http://www.philenews.com/el-gr/Staying-in/577/98641/o-erotas-chtypise-tin-porta-tis-eleleftheriou

Looks like they passed the NF performance through some filter effects and submitted it to the EBU as the official preview video. I doubt there will be a proper music video for it.
