This is a very, very nice song, the musical performance of the orchestra, especially Bouzouki players is amazing, but, that is almost, and common knowingly very typical for world-class, heavenly nice Greek music as usual. And, Our Lovely God has given Peggy Zina a great musical voice and talent, she can make every song nicer than it was before. For my musical feeling, and taste she is a very, very different, world-class, great artist who has conquered my heart and soul in a short time, I love her voice and heavenly nice songs very much, Lovely God is my witness to what I have written about her musical abilities and talents.
