And of course here is "Ayo Techonogy" from Katerine Avgoustakis, which she is most famous for:

I did not initially include it in the original post, because it is a cover and not her own song. (So I put "Treat Me Like A Lady" instead. Wink

)

**Brian Phillip** Sun Dec 06, 2009 12:58 am

Eleftheriou???? THAT'S MY GRANDMOTHERS MAIDEN NAME!!! Sooo cool lol!

**pop_art** Sun Dec 06, 2009 2:00 am

I'd choose among Melisses, Eleftheria Eleftheriou & Katerine Avgoustakis.
Despina Ricci & Sunny Baltzi are quite alternative singers

You know in USA many people have polish surnames but they aren't Polish

There are just a few examples but there are a lot of various and different surnames
The most popular surnames are finished at ~ski and ~cki
for example Kowalski and Małecki but American often use sky instead of ski

I hope not that Katerine Avgoustaki will represent Greece this year.I don't like her.She want only the attention of Eurovison because of a International Carrer.And not because she loves Greece.

She said in a Interview that if the greek people don't choose her to represent greece she will represent Poland.

The only problem is that after the greek final it is to late.Because the Final in Poland is sooner. cute wink

She said also that her song is a pop/dance song.A englsih song of course (she can't greek).I hope she know that cover songs of other singers are not allowed at Eurovision rofl

it was nothing like David Guetta's song.

For me it sounds similar like "When Love Takes Over".And this would be not a surprise.Katerine is the Cover Queen.

well she seems to be doing very well with covers (ayo technology) so she should probably keep it up!

It is by the same writer as Ivi's "Agapi", so most likely it will sound something like that. Eleftheria Eleftheriou already said it is a very dance-pop song that will make people dance instantly.

Here is the original version of Katerine's disqualified Eurovision song:

**Dadii_x3** Thu Feb 18, 2010 11:26 pm

I still think that they should send Elli,Despina,Maro,Kostas or someone like that on Eurovision and not these ''singers'' here disbelief

I'm very very very dissapointed..

Because you don't know or like the singers it means not that Greece will sucks.

Eurovision is also a chance for new Singers and not only for greek Superstars.
