As we heard this song in the rehersals, my collegues and I were sure that it was gonna win in this Year (we represented Yugoslavia). The song was so lovely simpel and Anna sang so nice, loking as a Greak Godess... Well and than, this terible "Rin bisschen frieden" won. Such trash.
I congratulate you for this wonderfull entry...thanks for sharing- did not heare it for allmost 30 years, and I still love it!
vissi for ever!htan apithani kai oso pernoun ta xronia einai apithanoteri!:-)oti kai na poume gi afti ti ginaika tha nai ligo!anna panta dipla sou!!!!
I remember this song...and I'd never have recognized her now! Unbelievable, but she actually looks OLDER here than now, at 48!! (Maybe it's partly her hairdo & clothes, both are more youthful now than in 1982...)
A good song and good performance, but certainly far from my Greek/Cypriot favorite. The Cyprus Tourist Board is probably the winner of the postcard competition and Anna managed not to make a fool of herself in the video as perhaps the only one. She looks unbelievably tall in those shoes.
OK, I love the verses. I just don't dig the dull chorus.
And what's with the conductor exchange here. I bet there were conductors in Cyprus, couldn't Anna's husband or brother-in-law conduct?
Reference conductor. There weren't (and still aren't!) and no they couldn't! I was asked to arrange and produce Anna's track by CBS International (based in London back then), so it wasn't just my conducting I was employed for! Best wishes. Martyn Ford (the conductor!).
@cuboglach youre string arrangements are beautifull actually i heard the song before you have produced it and i didint think much of it but when anna came back from chappel studios and i heard it and you have really changed the song around!Congrats
elena...if u speak spanish, my words are confirmed that anna was 25 years old at that time. the spanish commentator says that 'cyprus sends a very interesting 25 year old lady'
One of my two top pics (the other is 1992's "Teriazoume") for best Cypriot entry ever. A onderful song with a great performance by Anna Vissi - and of course much, much better than her 2006 entry.
okay ... time to make another fool of myself! After her performance Terry Wogan sarcastically says "and thats available in all good record shops on Monday"...so guess who went out to the record shop & asked for this to a bemused assistant?
OK, I'll resist the strong urge to make fun of you (for now), and I'll ask, Wogan didn't like this? Man, sometimes our tastes couldn't be further apart!
IT'S HILARIOUS! ------ANNA VISHY!

My favourite entry of ESC 1982, sublime performance, voice, singer and song, with touching lyrics, very different from other ballads :)
