Tuesday Tunes: Vasiliki
Vasiliki is a Greek traditional song, not an artist. It is the story of Vasiliki who falls in love with the wrong man and then commits suicide, in typical Greek tragic fashion.
Here singing it is one of the greats of Greek singers - Giorgos Dalaras. I've seen him live and he is one of the best performances I have ever seen. His voice is just amazing.

While I'm here, I better mention blogged over on the Dark Side blog on Saturday about blogger's block. It's about me and the CFS barrier and writing.
Also check out the Romance Writers of Australia blog today for a conference update.

OPA ELENI!
We Greeks are so dramatic are we not?
Indeed we are :))
And then there's the silly comedies. Loved watching Stathis Psaltis films when growing up. And he was hilarious on stage too.
