Odes is an album I can listen to no matter what my mood or frame of mind may be. This album is near essential for anyone wishing to write an epic tale, spun round grand events and twisted yarns. It's inspiring how this music can so rapidly alter and re-focus one's imagination if they only let it.
I can't be certain if this was Vangelis and Papas's last colaboration, as I know of only one other album they did together. Of the two albums the two completed, I think this one was the better of the two.
The lyrics to "Odes" were co-written (with Irene Papas) by political pundit/blogger/commentator/columnist, Arianna Stassinopoulos-Huffington! Vangelis arranged, wrote and produced all of the music on the 1978 album.
mugensx, thank you sooooo much for posting this song. A great performance of Irene Papas, which is adorable singer and actress, and personality as well. Vangelis is one of my favour composer too. I first time hear it, thanks a lot!!! YD :)

I think this music of Vangelis would fit better scifi than Papa's wonderful voice.

Aedimus, I do not find you rambling. The song has simplicity, and it is great for when we have the complex yarn thoughts.

No conocía esta canción. Pero Irene Papas exhibe su talento en esta interpretación.
Gracias a Smyle y mugensx por compartir.

ODES is a wonderful record, miss papas and her intensity are fitting perfectly with vangelis compositions...was this their last cooperation?

How can this be, considering that the songs included in the CD are adaptations of greek folksongs?
