  • Many thanks for the info I have looked it up and YES this is the track.After many many years of looking. AGAIN MANY THANKS (Brilliant)

  • Great band of my teen years. I like much the way Demis Rossous sings. But over all there is the great Evangelos Papathanassiou because he's the music's maker. After the band was broken he wrote a lot of wonderful pieces of music and film's music like Blade runner, Alexander, Chariots of fire, Antartica, 666, L'apocalypse des animaux, mask and many others. When I was teen somebody says that he was not able to read music, that he was pure talented instinct. Great!!

  • Me encontre con este video por pura casualidad jamas en mi vida me habia enterado que existió este grupo, y su musica es alusinante y no puedes dejar de escucharla sobre todo con la voz magistral de un jovencisimo Demis Roussos, oportunidad que tengo se la recomiendo a mis amigos para que la conoscan.-

  • Many thnx to whoever uploaded this video. I knew this song back in Iran, when my father used to listen to all these oldies. I have been longing to find this song, like for 12 years. Last night I just typed the lyrics and thnx to the person, who uploaded it and to the internet, I found it. What a great song and voice!

  • vangelis e demis ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i ragazzi di afrodite e noi eravamo i ragazzi di allora!!!!

    Piango??????....si molto!

  • Un pauroso play-back: a pensare che alle tastiere c'è il "maestro"VANGELIS.

  • Sublime.

  • Un Bello Recuerdo

  • CHE BRIVIDIIIIIIIIIIIII E TANTISSIMA NOSTALGIA TEMPI BELLISSIMI ! MI RITROVO A 52A ASCOLTANDO QUESTE CANZONI MI VIENE DA PIANGERE !

  • @bru59n IO A 60 ANNI PIANGO, NE VALE PROPIO LA PENA CON QUESTA  VIBRANTE CANZONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • gli anni 60 70 hanno espresso gli ultimi veri mostri ,artisticamente parlando,della storia.

    dopo di che lentamente ,il talento,la capacità tecnica e la sensibilità di emozionare si sono via via sostituiti con la provocazione,lo sfarzo e il puro marketing fine a se stesso.

    a parte qualche rarissima gemma di indubbio valore(piu che altro tecnico) ,negli ultimi 15 18 anni non c'è stata quella capacità di innovare, di stupire, portare oltre, come quel periodo meraviglioso.

    .

  • Excellent tune!

  • Pura saudade!..

  • è un video bellissimo

  • è un video bellisssimo

  • la musica degli dei.

  • Canzone meravigliosa, nell'epoca dei fuoriclasse.

  • perfect

    

  • INFELIZMENTE NOS DIAS DE HOJE NAO SE FAZ MUSICAS IGUAIS A ESTA.PARABENS

  • linda linda demais 

  • simplesmente linda essa cançâo, só podia ser ele , o inesquecível.... Demis.

  • noooossaaaaa !!!!!!!

  • Lindo......

  • excellent, no chance to have music melody based like that today...

  • My youth...

  • Wonderful cooments. Also..there is so much beauty in that music. I close my eyes and takes me back when I was a girl..in south america, in a very hot town where all I had I was a radio in a very old kitchen and some family.

  • Greetings from Greece... Demis for ever!!!

  • We have really lost something precious to the human condition and most of us don't even know it. I wish we could find our way back but as long as melodrama is a bad word and mocked by this generation I'm afraid we won't.

  • Demis was really good looking then, t hey were all very attractive people

  • Amazing, beautiful. I was born in the 80´s but I love this kind of music.

  • This song speaks for itself, and does not need a comment.

  • sublime

  • In relative terms to 2011, light years ahead.

  • Wonderful! Maravilhoso! Merveilleux!!! Everything is the way it has to be...

  • Beautiful song and wonderful rich synth sound from Vangelis.

  • mpravo re paidia

  • Mamma mia che canzone straordinaria, quante lacrime versate in quegli anni tristi e felici allo stesso tempo, noi over 50...dovremmo ricordare le sensazioni incredibili che questa melodia ci dava e la voce di Demis.

  • @Perfidia4ever vero, e purtroppo adesso dobbiamo sentire cantanti mediocri e canzoni banali.

  • IF THE HEAVEN HAVE A SOUNDTRACK, THIS PROBABLY IS THE BEST.........

  • saludos demis de chile,maravillosa voz.

  • amo muito cara... eles eram demais, o Demis ainda é!

  • great!

  • Adoro essa som, grande banda!

    Musica de verdade!!!

  • Can anybody tell me one of there songs had the words "In a room just five feet eight I sit alone and wait" can't remember any more anybody out there any ideas.

  • @Ziet1 It is Tiny Goddes of Nirvana band around 1967/1968

    Greetings

  • Great group so much agree with most of the comments, listen to the so called music to day it's mostly ~@~@**8 say no more. Still brings lump to my throat.

  • peoniesfleur - I so agree with you. Altogether better but not for the Greeks they were under a military very right wing regime. The coup of 1967. Many people were tortured and disappeared.  There was a notorious jail north off Athens. Beatles music was banned there in those days.

  • @rohansrider Yes, and it seems we are in the same situation again, except now it's thanks to germany.

  • Great music and killer vocals.I love the oldschool keyboards and the acid trip vibe.

  • More popular in Greece at the time. Was in a disco in Plaka when I first heard this,I was dancing with a gorgeous Greek guy called Spiros.

  • his voice makes me shivers !

  • That incredible the thin q was in those years...not you x q later began to put on weight so much....

  • They look so elegant, romantic and beautiful. Their music also is very very beautiful.

    I wish we were back in those days. My generation is not that good.

  • @peoniesfleur Ironicly, longing back to the past this way, you sound like the man who's the subject of this song (I also think it's a very beautiful song by the way).

  • @peoniesfleur most of my teen years were spent enjoying this song and the rest of that album ... great work, divine ...

  • @dadautube I LOVE THEM. It was a great era, I think that this band is under-rated!!!

  • Simply great song; I always love Demis's vocals. I also like how Vangelis is just rubbing the keys at the end and none of them are going down as he fakes the flourishes to the playback.

  • Beautiful song! How this wasn't a huge hit when it was first released is beyond me.

  • Aphrodite's Child was about Revelations and was no way satanic or occult in it's interpretations. It was religious and spiritual but everyone who didn't know better thought it was written by A.C. instead of the Bible.

  • Amazing band, thanks for turning some people on to them.

  • Merci!

  • Seems like" Wihter shade of pale."

  • @huntthehunters

    dude religion is bullshit

  • The Rock-n-Roll industry is absolutely saturated with Satanism and the occult. Did you ever notice that Wiccan witches never expose Satanism, and Satanists never expose the New Age movement, and New Agers never expose the occult? The reason why is all too obvious, they're all working for the same boss--SATAN!

  • il grande vangelis alla tastiera.

  • O olho que tudo vê, ou voces não viram???

  • Demis Roussos verdient meer aandacht op radio en tv.

  • ¡¡Un Supergrupo y una Voz Inolvidable!!...

    Saludos a todos desde Perú.

    :)

  • amazing floor tom used for a suspended tom, super ludwig set for lukas sideras

  • @huntthehunters It is not satanic. It is pagan. There is a difference. Aphrodites was a pagan godess. :)

  • @huntthehunters who said anyone's soul was for sale but you. Quit your preaching, gramps. Save it for sunday church.

  • There is another version with Demis Roussos where the words are written/

  • κορυφαιο τραγουδι .......... κορυφαια μελωδια.....

  • Demis is a real Greek god in this video wowie ;-)))

  • Great song!

    Demis without the traditional beard...looks different!

  • It was....in France!

  • @shaftsbury94 Demis Roussos a bit smaller then you used to maybe ;-)n but the voice still the same

  • the nigh is my friend and in him i find simpathy e a ltlle dream...

    abbiamo sognato solo con la musica e siamo sttai fortunati a crescere cosi..

  • i miei primi baci..

  • Bela música num belo vídeo. Parabéns!

  • They look SO young!!!!! Demis is my impossible love <3

  • Me, it's the texture of the recording with Demis' piercing tenor. It's a very original, bold sound you don't really hear anymore.

  • @drummersr BEETHOVEN..MOZART..NON AVREBBERO FATTO DI MEGLIO....EVANGELOS E ARTEMIOS NELLA LEGENDA...LEGEND..LEGENDE...OU­I YES YA DA SI ..CIAO DRUMMERS..SOGNAMO INSIEME PERCHE' QUEST CANZONE L'HO BALLATA ALLORA CON DONA, LA DONNA CHE AMO DA 43 ANNI..BUONA GIORNAT

  • Wasn't the reason Aphrodite's Child never went big cos Vangelis was afraid of flying, so they couldn't tour to get exposure? Either way its a tragedy they didn't get the respect they deserve.

  • нет слов, одни эмоции)))

  • On the keyboard, Vangelis, didyou know this?

  • Beter kan niet !!!!!

  • awesome set lol!!!

  • i really like the reffrain... amazing !! i would like to sing it in rock alternative

  • Semplicemente un mito, per la mia generazione!

  • thanks so much for to share

  • glad to return back when i was very very young

  • These song make me smile *--*!

  • A fantastic, timeless masterpiece!

  • Vangelis on keys

  • non riesco a non piangere...

  • grandissimo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

  • Great song, great musicians and singer...I've loved them,and then Demis Roussous and Vangelis as single

    

  • This is the forgotten song ! I`m a bit upset, because it`s a cool song,doesn`t matter how old is it ! Aphrodite`s Child Romainia is with You !!

  • ela mwrh groupara!!!!

  • I just bought their record for the first time. End of the World. It is the best record I own and I own alot of albums in every genre.

    They are the best band ...

  • Just heard this on dutch radio. God, how I love this track!

  • Incredible track. So underground amazingly. This song should've been a huge hit.

  • @mavsfan1000

    I totally agree, well said!

  • @mavsfan1000  It was a big hit back in late 60's.

  • @mavsfan1000 IT WAS WE WERE PLAYING AND PLAYING IT A THOUSAND TIME PER PARTY..IN ROME PARIS MADRID LISBON LONDON AMSTERDAM...LUANDA..

  • @mavsfan1000

    Then again, huge hits are rarely this good.

  • @mavsfan1000 it was!

  • @mavsfan1000 - it is a huge hit kisses from athens

  • @mavsfan1000 It was! Just not in the English speaking world. 5 weeks at # 1 in Italy, 12 weeks in the top 10 in France, 9 weeks in Germany. The British pop scene in 1970 just wasn't ready for a Soprano Castrato, whereas the rest of the European record buying public didn't care, as long as it sounded romantic and the lyricds were English.

  • @Pluschap Well I guess I'm more surprised that they never play this song on the radio anymore. But I guess there were a lot of classics that got forgotten through the years.

  • @mavsfan1000 Yes It was! A lot of time on the first places in Billboard, New Misical Express... They were a grat band!

  • @mavsfan1000

    well,it's 3 o'clock , a.m. of course , I'm italian and I was born in 1985...And I listen to this since I was a kid... so.... If it wasn't a hit at least it went round n' round enough , imo.... :P

  • Sonzeeeeeira! Muito bom, Sr. Roussos!

  • How classy. They look and sound incredible.

    I love this song.

  • un vero spettacolo inimitabile

  • Como funcionan los tríos sin incluir guitarra en muchas canciones de rock a lo largo del tiempo. Esta composición es una muestra y un hito.

  • whiter shade of pale resemblance

  • Comment removed

  • anche questa è un pilastro di emozioni ... la ascolto volentieri . bravi !!!!!

  • Vángelis y Demis Roussos juntos....que lujo....y esto en el año 1969, hace un siglo...aún habra gente pos ahí que no lo habra escuchado....todo super.

  • i see that fucking eyeball everywhere. those secret society guys should really just go fuck off already.

  • I like Procol Harum too but this would be the ultimate ringtone ;)

  • amazing song

  • Vangelis always looking cool, and after the recording of 666 with need to fly away of the limitations of the band (great song anyway)

  • Come sono bravi, questo motivo lo porterò sempre dentro di mè, sino alla fine

    della mia vita.

    by Stonewall

  • Как молод, хорош и талантлив Демис. Песня - гимн семидесятых.

  • What a beautiful song- great recording, great band, and what a voice- just perfect. Everyone who felt lonely understands this

  • Великая песня. Мой поклон авторам...

    

  • That's a song that has writen history. Superb!

  • @frizzlefrap....Thanks for the compliments. I am honest even if it means I'm actually very proficient with the bass guitar to make it sound like a lead instrument by itself. FYI, I'm not even influenced by AC - my bass influence came from Sting and John Entwistle.

  • for hnorky:

    I agree with the approach...

  • Demis looks ilke the Highlander, the TV Highlander

  • this is music, my parents fell in love to this music, what will I tell my kids or what will they say? "my dad fell in love with mom listening to P DIDDY, JAY Z, Britney Spears" this music puts today's music to shame!!!!!

  • @fivesurfers umm thats not exactly 'falling in love' music

  • When I dug deeper into their catalog of songs, I instantly fell in love with their music. Distinctive yet profoundly Greek to the core.  Demis reminds me of my time playing as a substitute bass guitarist and providing backing vocals at the same time.

  • @ginazidaho ..... oh, your admitting being untalented too! ...... at least your honest!

  • if you send me 20 packs of chocolate papadopolous (small pack), i might be nicer to ya, aphrodite's child! when i was in the navy (u.s.) i literally devoured gyros with salt, onion and tomato, amstel beer, and those delicious cookies.

  • Qué grupo tan curioso con Vangelis a los teclados. Preciosa canción, conmovedora, previa a la fantástica carrera musical que luego protagonizarían...Genial. Gracias por estar aquí.

  • one of the best albums ever 666

  • this organ player likes to copy from "whiter shade of pale" (procol harem) ... this is 80 zillion times better than "rain and tears" .... how come the organ player isn't kissin ... anymore butt?

  • @frizzlefrap The "organist" is Vangelis, and since he dispensed with the Hammond, he hasn't walked in anyone's shadow - least of all Gary Brooker's

  • @Wiganmaher ... who's gary brooker?

  • @frizzlefrap See you had your answer alreaddy who the örgan player is"doesn,t really need to kiss anyones butt ;-)

  • @Choefoe ... well, watch "rain and tears" video .... and he's kissin butt, big time

  • @frizzlefrap you mean the statue haha;-)

  • @Choefoe .... he's kissin but in old "rain and tears" video
