after publishing, UMG blocked the video because of Barbz's song "Sirens" and "Vale" by Evangelia – I had to remove the audio of these songs or the video would remain blocked.
Ζήτω Ο Πόντος Μας ❤❤❤❤❤ Ζήτω Η Έλληνες ❤❤❤❤❤
I have never been more wrong and somehow I missed Klavdia's song and I need to apologize to the Greek people. Asteromata is a real masterpiece and Kavdia's vocals just hit me in the right spot, somehow she sounds even better live than in the studio verson ! This song might well end in my personal top 3 in the end.
I could be wrong but I feel like Georgina Kalais took the high road
One song should listen from the beginning to the end, Asteromata by Klavdia
I hope that Evangelia will win at Greek final so Europe dance PENTOZALI this year.
Evangelia is amazing and VALE is the number one ❤❤❤
Asteromata, Vale and maybe Play It are definately the ones that have a good chance to qualify. Eventually Sirens and Odyssey.
All the others no matter if good or bad, I don't see qualifying and moving to the finals.
Hear me out:
I want Evangelia to represent Greece, but 4 of the other songs in this selection to go to other countries because they all deserve to go to Eurovision.
Asteromata, Sirens, Odyssey and Play It should all be there too!
I don't know if someone has said this already yet but Αστερομάτα means "Starry-eyed" (the female form), not constellation. The feel of the song is about comforting someone (like a daughter-to-mother mother-to-daughter relationship).
Also the violin-like string you like Tom, is a type of lyra! The most usual ones are cretian and pontic lyras. ^^
A couple of extra facts about our Greek National Final this year: from the news available, preparations for the staging will be done by Fokas Evaggelinos (who directed Satti last year among other entries) and have started since the songs got released to the public, which isn't a lot of time. I'm guessing the performances we'll see on the 30th won't be the final ones and there will be room to improve on both the winning song and performance until ESC 2025!
Omg stop talking!! You have two ears and one mouth, annoying!
Just a little guide on how to read greek names and words: D because it replaces Δ should be pronounced like th in then , Ch is used to replace X which sounds like H in Harris and G is never like in Gelato, as to which is correct is difficult to describe but in the case of Evangelia is Eva- ge as in get- lia
No doubt a masterpiece for the ages.
Rikki’s Elevator (Up & Down) makes me smile. With a few more innuendos added it could be mistaken for a song written by The Flight of the Conchords.
All the songs were demos, therefore in the national final night the final versions will be revealed
As you may remember I was huge fan of Marina Satti's "Zari" last year, and I don't really think I like any of these as much. Klavdia comes close though; I think it's very beautiful and if she's vocally good live this could be quite magical. I see why people like "Vále" and it's a nice mix of modern and traditional, but I must say it sounds too much like a Greek version of "Pepas" by Farruko.
Don’t count Xannova Xan out. ❤❤❤ She is fire !!!
Klavdia, incomparable!
I hate the fact that Vale and Asteromata are in the same NF, 2 of of my absolute favourite NF songs so far 🥲🥲
Klavdia the end……
Barbz ❤
