Do you think you know everything there is to know about Anna Vissi?

"Diagonios" music hall, with Charis Aleksiou, Vassilis Papakonstantinou and Kostas Mantzopoulos. Christos Nikolopoulos (bouzouki) and Antonis Vardis (guitar), participated in the orchestra.

Anna wins both the first prize of the jury and the national prize of the audience, at the 16th Thessaloniki Song Festival. The winning song was "As kanoume apopse mian archi", by Doros Georgiades and Sotia Tsotou.

"The lyrics and the music of the song I sang in that year’s Festival were composed by Doros Georgiades. When he wrote it, he called me, we rehearsed it in the studio and we sent it to qualify. And indeed it qualified, leading us to victory. Initially I had some inhibitions. But the fact that I wanted to do something entirely mine gave me strength and I appeared fearless in front of the audience. My success is shared with Doros Georgiades, because he wrote a song that I could make something out of. What I need to stress is that what I admire the most in this song are its lyrics, which refer to a very important issue of our times. Furthermore, I was surprised by the people's love. George Krimizakis and I went as representatives to check the voting procedure and we realised that the song was getting almost the same amount of votes from all areas (in Greece). When I finally knew that the audience was rewarding us for our effort, everything was done for me and I didn’t care if I was going to win the first prize. Manina mag., 1977
