Posted June 25, 2002 · Report post Francois, all the warm thoughts for you and your friend!!! Dare I write here what one of us told me in a heavy time: "Apply a lot of Dalaras to the wound, morning, noon and night, it's a good medicine..." and it helped me really in the periode. If your friend does not know Greek music: as a help, the refrain from "Iptameno xali" or at least the text (in a suitable moment,as suggestion for your friend in a translation, if needed) - or simply γλυκο χαμογελο με αγκαλια and the thoughts and prayers of us - the friends of our friends are our friends (even if it sounds too easy here). Ενα τραγουδι? Του Χαρου, so that nobody can think death is better than life; Πως τα σκοτοσαν τα πουλια (Ηλιοσκοπιο) - just to dance this thought out; Μη μου θυμονεις, ματια μου - for everybody who needs friendship and tenderness, I know only a few music compositions of such a quality, the most other is of JSBach. Niki, σαρανδα καλοκερια once more. Olgitsa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 26, 2002 · Report post Yesterday I wanted to listen to two songs in particular: Γυριζω τις πλάτες μου στο μέλλον (because of that interview) and ομορφη και παράξενη πατρίδα (because of the Cyprus report). Now I'm lucky because one of my most precious cd has both these songs on it. So I put on the cd. So the friend who had come to spend the day and do some costume work said "hey, this is a great song, what is it about?" (this was about Γυρίζω...) . I said " I tried to translate it once but I didn't get very far, but I'll have a go". So I looked up the lyrics, and... well the result is in the translation forum. Meanwhile I had given her the print-out of the lyrics for that cd, most of them with translation, and she had forgotten her sewing for a while. So at one point she looked up and said: "hey, this guy really makes great lyrics". The unspoken assumption being that the singer always writes his own lyrics: THE single biggest mistake in our modern western music scene, I think. So I had to explain that in Greece, they have poets to write poetry, composers to set it to music, and singers to sing it... and that this particular poem was by a guy who not only got his Nobel prize, but richly deserved it...

Posted June 26, 2002 · Report post Who knows how to find the text "Tou Xarou" there? I couldn't do it neither by "Tou Harou" nor by the beginnig of the text, "Se politeies trexei". It must have been my Greek writing, full of mistakes, I suppose.... This is again the song of today, after the yesterday writing of Francois and as memory for his friend.

Posted June 26, 2002 · Report post Here's your song, Olga, and thanks again: ΤΟΥ ΧΑΡΟΥ Μουσική: Γιάννης Μαρκόπουλος Στίχοι: Πάνος Θεοδωρίδης Σε πολιτείες τρέχει μαύρος που θα τον δει αρματωμένος ρήγας σε κόκκινο φαρί κόφτει στα δυο τις ρούγες σαϊτα αστραφτερή το μάτι του μετράει την παγωμένη γη Ποιος ειν' αυτός που τρώει γυναίκες και παιδιά μιας ώρας χορτασμός του δεκαοχτώ χωριά Τον είδα στο Τραφίκι τον είδα στα Πλανά και μες τη Σαλονίκη ξένους να προσκυνά μην ειν' ο γιος του δράκου μην ειν' ο ζακβεής μην ειν' ο γέρο Γιάννης ο Γιάννος ο νταής Δεν ειν' ο γιος του δράκου δεν ειν' οχτρού παιδί δεν ειν' ο γέρο Γιάννης μαύρος που θα τον δει Κανείς μας δεν τον ξέρει σώσε μας Παναγιά μια κι η ζωή που ζούμε φεύγει και δε γυρνά Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 28, 2002 · Report post Niki, don't change anything you will not, and please, don't think too intensively about the end of the song. If you need so badly, turn into "Palio stratioti" from the same album. We have now 30 grades Centograde here - a real summer, mia agapi gia to kalokeri... Glad to hear you again, paraponiariko moy.
