Here's the latest video from Helena Paparizou. It starts out in Greek and then switches to English about 1/3 of the way through. What do you think?

Gigolo

Man, why couldn't they have people dressed like that on MTV 20 years ago?

I think it sucks. It sucks like 98% of all music videos produced in the last years.

To some extent I agree with you. Most of the Greek music I listen to these days is stuff I would consider crap if it was in English, but for some reason when it's in Greek I can't get enough of it, lol!

Does it get better? I didn't see anything special about the song or the video from the part I watched. But I don't know Greek, so maybe it's better if you know what she's talking about.

Well, you didn't watch enough to get to the English part, hehe. She does stuff in both languages.

Funny you should mention that video.

When I was 13 (in August 1989) that music video got heavy rotation on MTV England. At that time they were the only MTV in Europe, and the reception in Greece wasn't very good, but good enough that I could watch it. I was in Greece at the time and I was staying in Athens the night before my plane left to come back to the U.S. I couldn't sleep so I turned on MTV... I saw that video 6 times that night.

I really don't care for metal, but I have that song (and video) on my iPod, simply because of that particular night!
