Fabulous Greek songs - Old & New (#002)

in #greekmusic7 years ago

Greek songs to love - I've personalised these posts, where there is a memory or comment worth presenting


ΠΟΣΟ ΛΥΠΑΜΑΙ - ΣΟΦΙΑ ΒΕΜΠΟ
I was a child when she came to Tanganyika to sing for the Greek community. I then saw her when I was about eighteen, at a theatre, if I remember it correctly, close to a cinema called Sineak



To Vals Tou Gamou - Eleni Karaindrou
From the Album "O Melissokomos", composed by Eleni Karaindrou . It's the song which has been playing for more than 5 years in a music store on the Istiklal Avenue in Istanbul

Politiki Kouzina - Στα Λιμάνια Ανάψανε Φωτιές
I first saw this movie when I was last in Greece and have seen it another two times since then



Krisia Todorova: Singing "Thelo na me nioseis" by Nikos Vertis
Though I made a post of this singer/song months ago, I had to add it here, as the song is lovely and Krisia, from Bulgaria has been one of my favourite singers for years now



Sodade- Cesaria Evora & Eleftheria Arvanitaki
Two beautiful voices creating magic for us - what a great choice for ending this post
Μη μ' αγαπάς για μια ζωή
ξέρω κανένας δεν μπορεί
εύκολα φως μου να το κάνει
Να μ' αγαπάς και να με θες
για δεκατέσσερις ζωές
και πάλι εμένα δε μου φτάνει

Perfect songs!!resteemed😊😊😊

Thank you - I hope you also use #greekmusic to post the songs you love.

The more of us who do so, the greater variety and we are all richer.

I also think that this is a good way to introduce non-Greeks to our music. If others did the same for their language songs, I know I would visit their posts to learn of what music they love. This is a good way to teach each other of all that is special about our music, singers and maybe a few of our traditions.
