Greece concludes the season with its multiartist national final as there are only song presentations left for the rest of the week. After the usual huge amount of gossips and chaos ERT got together four more or less unknown artists for the line up and rather mediocre group of songs.
1. Baby I’m yours – Dora ( Ilias Pantazopoulos – Franc, Nektarios Tyrakis)
Not bad in general, just heard about a zillion times before and sounds like an Antique album track. But even Antique is no longer existing....
2. Killer bee – Cassiopeia ( Christos Dantis, Leonidas Chantzaras)
A Greek girl band? A bit rockier sound that turns into a mediocre pop tune but better than the first one. A lot of posing on stage to be expected, probably added with shaky vocals. Sigh
3. No parking – Velvet Fire ( George Samuelson, Leonidas Chanztaras)
Why this sounds so Finnish, in a good way? And is that why I like it? They have a memorable look, the song has a catchy chorus and this is the one I can imagine listening after tonight's final... Actually I have been humming it ever since I heard it for the first time....
4. Aphrodisiac – Eleftheria Eleftheriou ( Dimitri Stassos , Mikaela Stenströmand, Dajana Lööf)
The favorite I suppose. For me it sounds more like a prototype of what people think the Greek entry should sound like. Rather naive and a bit annoying. But that's only me. Probably wins and goes to the final and scores another top-10 for Greece. These are things one can't quite understand sometimes... but this said, there are already quite a few songs like this travelling to Baku 2012....
