Greece: On March 10, through the main news bulletin of ERT, the revelation of Amanda’s song!

The decision has been made and ERT finalized the date of the announcement of the Greek participation in Eurovision 2022. According to our information, the video clip of the song, with which Amanda will compete in Turin, will be published through the main news bulletin of ERT1 , on Thursday, March 10, at 9 p.m. Of course, if the news does not allow it, the announcement will take place from one of the ERT shows (eg Studio 4).

Everything is ready and ERT’s initial intention was for the videoclip to be released next Thursday, March 3. Unfortunately, the dramatic developments in Ukraine, with the Russian troops at the gates of Kiev, pushed them to postpone the publication of the Greek entry for a week.

With Greece in fourth place in bets, despite the leak of just an unfinished demo, optimism is pervasive on the ERT’s headquarters that the country will manage in Eurovision 2022 to take an even better position than last year. So, wanting to give as much attention as possible to Amanda’s song, ERT decided to postpone the release of the video clip for next Thursday, March 10. Of course, there is no guarantee that the situation in Ukraine will be better next week, but nevertheless the Greek public television wants to exhaust every possible margin.

The countdown is now officially starting!

The Dream Team comment on the involvement of D. Kontopoulos in the composition of the Greek entry!

The presence of Dimitris Kontopoulos in Symi, together with the other members of the Greek delegation, raised many questions (once again), about the degree of his contribution to the composition of Amanda’s song for Eurovision 2022. Is he the producer of the song? Is he a composer? Is he a composer with Amanda? Is it none of the above? We will try to answer these questions, since Eurovisionfun came in contact with the Dream Team and we convey their comment to you.

On the one hand, and before we quote the Dream Team comment, you should keep in mind that Dimitris Kontopoulos several times in the past was a composer of participations in the contest, without putting his signature. Some of these times it was obvious that he was the creator (Moldova 2018) and sometimes the fact that he was the composer remains a secret to this day.

So whether Dimitris Kontopoulos is the composer or one of the composers of this year’s Greek entry, we will probably never know. But what is definitely true is what we were told by the Dream Team.

Regardless of the fact who is the composer of the song, Dimitris Kontopoulos is the man who has the first and last word in everything that has to do with music. in all our projects. From writing a song, to choosing it, to doing the production. Even if he did not write the song himself, he is certainly the one who chose it, providing his full confidence and approval.

We were explained by the Dream Team, that if Dimitris Kontopoulos did not approve of Amanda’s song, there was no way they could have suggested her to ERT, nor collaborated with her for the Eurovision Song Contest!

But beyond all the above, there is a practical reason that Dimitris Kontopoulos is in Symi. He is a fanatical fan of the island, maintaining a holiday house there.

So whatever the answer to the question, what exactly is the contribution of Dimitris Kontopoulos in the composition of the Greek entry, it is certain that Amanda’s song enjoys its full confidence!

Next week Amanda together with Kostas Karydas (the director), members of the Greek delegation, but also a crew of ERT will travel to Symi in order to film the video clip.

But do not wait to see a video clip type postcard, in the video there will be a story that will unfold in the beautiful landscapes of Symi. This is the image that Greece will send to millions of viewers this year through the video clip of its participation in the contest. ERT’s message to many recipients is clear. On a remote island that can be just 10 minutes from Turkey and 10 hours from Athens, will shoot the video clip of our nation’s participation in Eurovision 2022.

Amanda arrives in Athens on Sunday and will leave as we mentioned above immediately for Symi, where she will stay for three days. ERT with a crew that will have in Symi and through Studio 4, but also its news bulletins will inform us about the shooting with a rich background and related videos.
