Anyway, as secretary to our Living History Society, I earned the title MissCalculation (good thing I was not the treasurer).

Ok Guys

This is a good topic I was thinking of starting one myself, but I never could because it's so hard for me to just choose the top 5.  

You see, I love almost all of Dalaras songs and yes some more than others but if I had to choose well lets see how about:

1. Paraponemena Logia

2. Alana

3. Mi Milas Kindinevi H Ellas

4. Mi Yirisis Pia

5. H Elei Kai Eleutheri Orawai

And that doesn't begin to scratch the surface. This won't even get us in the ballpark not along to mention 1st base.

How about including the top 10

for the next topic or the next 5 etc., etc.?

What you ask me to do is impossible. However I'll try to find my top 5 songs. So,

1. Esi tha metaniwseis

2. Tou katw kosmou ta poulia (live)

3. O zorikos (live)

4. H agapi

5. Prwti tou Dekemvri

I'm sure i've forgotten many many songs such as "Paraponemena logia!!!!", "San ton metanasti", "Mana mou Ellas", "Taksidi sta kithira" ... :) I should stop!!

We have proved that it's impossible to have only one top 5 or top 10 is it?

So I'll just go on changing my mind every day or so :)

Here are today's favourites:

1. Nychterida  (ask Soc why :)   )

2. Paraponemena Logia

3. Ximeroni

4. Prin to charama

5. Vassiliki

And what a nice day it's going to be!

It's more than difficult to find my top 10. The 1st and the 2nd is for sure (of course influenced by the late live listening during the European tour)

1. Theos an einai (the version he did with his musicians at the European tour, more powerful than with Ossipov or Israel Philharmonic Orchestra)

2. s'agapo (yiati eisai oraia) Dalaras should put this on his next cd

3. nichta (i kardia mou theli na petaxi)

4. mi mou thimonis matia mou

5. i nichta (synavlia Stavros Xarhakos)

6. to pepromeno

7. paraponemena logia

8. Didimotichon blues

9. o kosmos simeronie

10. una moneda le di

and last but not least: mia vradia sto Leverkusen

The 1st time I heard this song live in Greece, on Rhodes, 4000 people were singing, but only one from Leverkusen. Extraordinairy feeling!

Geeske, I think it's better to answer in English, otherwise some may think we have secrets to tell. The answer is yes and no.

It's a little bit funny with this song. I know Dalaras' voice since 1983,collected some of his music and liked to hear it. But I became really fan in 1994, after the 1st time I saw him live on stage.

Can you imagine my reaction, when I heard in 1997: Dalaras is singing about your town! I couldn't believe! The refain of this song is easy to understand. And you know what's so funny? I'm working in the townhall and this building is next to the railway station, so every day I'm liego exo ap'to stathmo. Nice way to honour a fan, isn't it?

No, I'm joking, they didn't it for me.

This week's favourite song is O METHIKOS.

I bought the record a week ago, put it on... the first bars of the song sounded... and I knew it! Instantly! When I was a child, we used to sing it by the campfires, in the french version by Moustaki. I used to love it then and still know most of the french lyrics by heart. And all this time I never realized it was a real Greek song first!

Geeska, that is so funny,i was just learning that song on my guitar last night.I was up until midnight playing it..Funny that it is your favorite song of the week....By the way,if Dalaras heard my version of his song,he would probably take the guitar and break it over my head...Maybe i should keep my day job!!!

I'va just bought two cds of Giorgos!"O tragoudistis" and "apona matia". From "o tragoudistis" my favourite song is "Tis makrines tis thalasses" and from the "apona matia" my favourite song is "Kai pou den piga"...that one is a great song...I loved it!What's more, my song of this week is "Pane na peis"! Very touching song. I believe that the lyricks are magical!A,re proedre (Lefteris Papadopoulos) ti mas kaneis me tous stixous sou...Fwtia mas anaveis!

Apostoli, I agree with you for "Tis makrines tis thalasses" and from "Apona matia" I choose the first track, "Ti na ta kaneis ta ftera", this is A Song!

"Ti na ta kaneis ta ftera" is a great song also, however i loved "Kai pou den piga" from the first second it started playing. In my opinion it is one of the best songs of the cd (if not the best :) ).
