Vassilis (DJ Fence)
- Used to forget his headphones so he discovered how to mix music without them!
- Never lets the sound engineers do their job because he does everything on his own.
- Always writes lyrics while driving!
- Likes to cook, his favorite dish being spaghetti with lobster.
- His mobile phone is always set to ring really loud, giving the hard time to everyone around! And the real problem is that… it never stops ringing!
Crystallia
- The gorgeous female of the group!
- Studied classic piano and currently still a student at the Department of French Language and Literature, but we doubt that she’s ever been there for anything else but to attend a party!
- After performing, fans usually ask her whether her vocals were live or playback!
- You will never see her wearing flat shoes, and if you did, it’d probably mean all her high heels were stolen or got fire or something… But she does actually walk barefoot on the beach…
- Was recently photographed wearing Jeffrey Campbell shoes and was featured on the blog of www.jeffreycampbellshoes.com , as the hot fashion icon from Greece!
- Her favorite place is the studio, when recording new songs. The lights at the studio are always turned off and instead there are lit candles everywhere.
Dimitris
- The “Guru” and godfather of OtherView!
- Goes all around even where he isn’t allowed to... Always doing what he shouldn’t really do, always out of his limits. He doesn’t do it on purpose, put the blame on coincidence.
- Witnessed the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre collapsing, from his own house, only a few blocks away.
- Didn’t quit, nevertheless. He stayed in Manhattan for a few years, composing music for Off Broadway shows, indie films and working as a DJ at the boutique hotels of Philippe Starck (Hudson, Royalton)!
- His favorite island is Elafonisos and every summer he throws amazing “OtherView” parties at his house there.
OtherView
- Shared a few bottles of wine with Armin Van Buuren, in a Greek restaurant at Malia, where Armin told them everything there is to know about writing “In & Out of Love”!
- Have collaborated with Akcent, Max Zotti & Davide Rivaz!
- Always rehearse their shows while travelling, using Vassilis’ high tech cell phone…!
La Luna
OtherView Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the stars were hanging in mid-air
in those moments - nothing mattered
But the way you caught me in your stare
We were walking - we were talking
We were laughing about the state of our lives
How our fates brought us together
As the moon was rising in your eyes
Deep down inside us
On and on a light was shining right through
Ah la Luna la Luna
The night that we fell under the spell of the moon
Ah la Luna la Luna
The light that will bring me back to you
The light of la Luna
In the hotels, in the cafes
All the world was mad with romance
In the harbor, moonlit water
All the ships were swaying in a dance
Then you held me and you kissed me
And I knew I had to be with you
You didn't ask me, you just took me
to the tiny bed in your tiny room
On and on the band was playing
A song of surrender
On and on the sun would soon break thru
Repeat .
Now I wald along the streets of Marseille
the winter sky is cold and grey
and I don't know why I left you that day
And I don't know where you are
The lyrics of OtherView's "La Luna" tell the story of a fateful encounter between two people, their intense connection, and the longing that remains in the aftermath of their separation. The singer reminisces about the moment they first met, noting that the stars seemed to hang in mid-air and that nothing else mattered except for the way the other person caught their gaze. As they walked and talked, laughing about their lives, they were brought together by fate, and the rising moon in the other's eyes.
Through the course of the song, the two share romantic moments under the light of the moon - in hotels and cafes, on board ships in the harbor. The other person takes the singer to a tiny bed in their tiny room, and they surrender to the experience. The band plays on, and the night continues until the sun rises and breaks the spell.
The final verse finds the singer wandering through the streets of Marseille, pained by the memory of their lost love. They don't know why they left the other person or where they are now, but they know that the light of La Luna is what will bring them back together.
Overall, "La Luna" is a poignant reflection on a powerful connection between two people, the intoxicating thrall of romance, and the enduring longing that can linger even after the moment has passed.

δεν μπορείς να πεις ποια τραγούδια αρέσουν στο καθένα, παρόλα αυτά όντως υπάρχουν κι άλλα καλά τραγούδια, ίσως και καλύτερα.

Dommage que ce "tube" n'ai pas été apprécié à sa juste valeur... C'est pourtant un classique engendreur de vues. Non ?
