On 15 October 2006, Vicky Leandros was elected town councillor of the Greek harbor town of Piraeus on the Pasok list. Her task concerned the Cultural and International development of Piraeus. She also served as Deputy Mayor of Piraeus.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mmh, sag wo
Wo ist Er?
An den die Menschen glauben
Den sie nennen Herrn der Welt
Ich schau auf zum Sternenzelt
Und such Ihn tagein, tagaus
(Halleluja)
Wo ist Er?
(Halleluja)
Sag wo
(Halleluja)
Mmh, wo ist Er?

Sag wohin muß ich gehen
Wie kann ich Ihn sehen
Dem ich so viel sagen will
Den ich so viel fragen will
Ich such Ihn tagein, tagaus
(Halleluja)
Wo, wo ist Er?
(Halleluja)
Sag wo
(Halleluja)
Wo ist Er?

Wie soll ich zu Ihm finden?

Ihr seht alle fort und schweigt

Keiner, der den Weg mir zeigt (ah)
Ich such Ihn tagein, tagaus

The song "Wo ist Er?" by Vicky Leandros is a heart-wrenching ballad that speaks to the searching and longing for a higher power that many people experience. The lyrics are a direct plea to God or a divine being, as the singer wonders where they can find Him and how they can communicate with Him.
The singer begins by acknowledging the idea that many people believe in a "Lord of the World" and looks up to the stars, hoping to find Him there. She sings "Halleluja" as a way of invoking Him and asking for His guidance. She asks where she should go and how she can see and speak to Him, and emphasizes that she searches for Him day and night.
As the song continues, the singer becomes more desperate in her search, noticing that everyone around her seems to be silent and not able to help her find her way. She continues to sing "Halleluja" with increasing urgency, begging to know where He is and when He will come to her. The song ends with a final plea, asking where He is and how she can find Him, as she desperately needs Him in her life.
Overall, "Wo ist Er?" is a powerful song that speaks to the universal human experience of searching for a higher being and feeling lost without that connection. Its lyrics are poignant and emotive, and its message will resonate with anyone who has ever felt alone or uncertain in their spiritual beliefs.
