The time of remixes on the fly on popular (at times) songs, is long gone ~ for me at least. However, after listening to 2025’s Eurovision, the Greek participation kinda triggered something in me. I couldn’t bring myself into isolating the original vocal, since it’s one of these performances where they need nothing more, let alone a remix. Powerful, emotional and meaningful; if you have roots in old Pontos.
Therefore I thought of “covering” it, by keeping only the lyrics and changing the vocal melody and harmony to something more intimate, summer-ey and fitting to the instrumental I had in mind. So here it is, I’m sure it will resonate with some, while others still prefer the original. Horses for courses, I say…!
