[CypriotGirl]

Thanks to all who supported my entry in the semi. #14 with 57 points, just 4 points behind the 12th qualifier, was a good result afterall!

Now, let's continue the trip.
139: Norwegian
140: Bulgarian
141: ??
It's gonna be a brand new language for Cyprus in WV, now try to guess it!
The song is gonna be an emoshen powerful ballad with epic vibes.

Li MiaoLi - Fly

For the first time, Cyprus sends a song in Chinese, an emoshen ballad from the Chinese queen of Cyprus Li MiaoLi.​

 

[Seok-jin]

Thank you for this!

 

[CypriotGirl]

In WV 142, I'll send a song in Greek at last. The song speaks about a market. And it's not this:

*I can't send this one anyway, the singer is Greek. But I couldn't resist sharing it.

 

[Nicholas123]

The song speaks about a market

Like Cleeeeopatrrrrrah? If so, i think i know.

And ewwwwww about the song. I remember we used to make a lot of cringe jokes with it as pupils at elementary school.

 

[CypriotGirl]

Like Cleeeeopatrrrrrah? If so, i think i know.

Hmm, there is a connection, I was sure you were going to figure it out, it's a very well known song.

WV 142 // Alkinoos Ioannidis - Stin Agora Tou Al-Khalili​

​

Alkinoos Ioannidis is one of the most appreciated Cypriot musicians. In the last 30 years he has toured across Europe and around the world including North America (USA, Canada), Australia, Brazil, Russia and Egypt.

I'm sending one of his earliest hits from his debut album "Stin Agora Tou Kosmou", released in 1993.

You can see the English translation of the lyrics below:

At the Market of Al-Khalili

The wind will burn in the land of the Nile
an ancient smell will intoxicate us
as you will be in the Tropic of Cancer
a goddess will be born in you

You will weave your oracle with holy smoke
to give me whenever I ask
so that I wil be hierophant in your temple
to interpret you and be interpreted myself

At the market of Al-Khalili
They will be selling your two lips
two fortunes and one more
I will give four
I will pay as much as necessary
so that they will give me a stain.

I will buy you brassware at Carnac
we will talk to local artists
at nights I will fulfil your favours
as many as nobody before

I will be the spring in the oasis of Siva
you will be the diamond sky
You will be the queen of Thiva
and I (will be) a spell-bound Pharaoh

At the market of Al-Khalili
They will be selling your two lips
two fortunes and one more
I will give four
I will pay as much as necessary
so that they will give me a stain.

You can also find translation in: French, German and Spanish.

 

[Nicholas123]

I remember being 6- 7 yo trying to understand what the lines about the stain or about "fulfil your favours" were implying and my parents were in such an awkard place.

 

[CypriotGirl]

After the unlucky moment of being 13th in the semi, I decided to try something else:

A powerful/emoshen pop-rock ballad from early 2010s by a hot male artist.

Stefanos Dimosthenous - Panta Ekei

 

[CypriotGirl]

Some spoilers for my next entry:

It's totally different style, language, time of release etc from my current entry, but it shares one thing in common: in the music video, the singer, who is also a male, appears shirtless.

 

[CypriotGirl]

Forget what I said about my next entry in the post above. I've decided to send something different this time, an alternative/experimental type of song, which is a remake of a folk/entechno song by a female artist that I recently found out she's Cypriot. @Nicholas123 time to satisfy you.

 

[Nicholas123]

Sounds promising, though i have no idea about the artist. Is she well known?

 

[CypriotGirl]

Sounds promising, though i have no idea about the artist. Is she well known?

No idea how well known she is, not much I guess but you probably have heard of her. She collaborated with Marina Satti in a project/choir recently.

 

[Nicholas123]

She must be good, then.

 

[CypriotGirl]

She must be good, then.

I actually like that project/choir of Marina Satti, it's not like her solo songs.

Θàleia - Aeriko

 

[CypriotGirl]

I'm very happy I made it in this edition! Now that semi results were published, time to start planning for next edition. I decided to send:

A rock song (or pop-rock, it's radio friendly rock I think) by a female vocalist, from her debut album in 2010. She was known mononymously by her first name back then. Nowadays, she's using her surname too, and is more in the artistic/entechno music scene, but her earlier works were more rock oriented, and for me early 2010s and late 2000s rock and pop-rock sound very nostalgic, as they remind me my teenage years.

 

[CypriotGirl]

The past couple of days I realized that the song I was planning to send is a rip-off of a very well known 2000s hit, so I decided to drop it.

Here it is, if someone is interested:

And it's clear which song it reminds everyone.

I won't give any obvious clues about the song I chose, I'll only say that I'm down deep dirty on my rocking mood, if you know what I mean.
