"Despina Vandi is no. 1 artist in Greece and I think she did a good job with this CD. It is very interesting to see how traditional and modern Greek music go together in her songs. If you are a fan of Vandi, there is no doubt you have to buy it, even if the price is a bit too high from my point of view - normally it should not be more than 16-17 USD. But if you only want to make an idea about contemporary Greek music, try something else, for instance her newest "Geia!", which is much better. I am sure you will like her songs as she is not so 'commercial' like other singers are."

"i think that is one of Despinas best albums.great tracks like 'Sta dosa ola' were huge hits that year and the cover is really nice.also listen to the title track and of course Giatriko!"
Give Despina credit for this!

"i just got this today in the mail. despina's music here is a good hint of traditional greek music and a 90's pop sound that mixes well. don't expect something too up-beat or something to dance to at the clubs but do expect good music that despina never fails to give her listeners. songs like the title track PROFITIES and TO KORITSAKI SOU, and HORIS ESENA are beautiful!
some of my favorites though have to be PROFITIES, TO KORITSAKI SOU, APAPA, GIATRIKO, AKROS TOLMIRO (which sounds like something madonna would sing which is great!)
nonetheless, this album does not fail in its mixture of traditional greek music and good pop music. and if you're looking for something more up beat that still maintains the greek traditional sound then indeed check out her world-wide smash album "GIA" (one hell of an album) and also check out her latest album released in 04 entitled "STIN AVLI TOU PARADEISOU" (great music on that one too!)
