Greece Eurovision Entry 2025

 

Greece has the longest coastline in Europe and is the southernmost country in Europe. The mainland has rugged mountains, forests, and lakes, but the country is well known for the thousands of islands dotting the blue Aegean Sea to the east, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, and the Ionian Sea to the west.

Litsa sent this background information about the song and their school which I am sure you will appreciate.

I am a music teacher at the 1st Primary School of Papagou in Athens, Greece. I am sending you a song that I created together with my students, aiming to send a message of solidarity and unity to the world. In this song, we present some pressing social issues of our time iin Greece , we take a stand on them, and we ask for the support of others so that together we can find a solution because ...we care  ! 

First the students wrote down ideas and lyrics, which were further refined by me. After that, we discussed the song's rhythm, and I suggested melodies with continuous feedback from my students.Once this process was completed,I wrote down the song and taught it to the students. The sounds of the instruments they played (recorders, xylophones, guitars, keyboards, drums) blended with their voices, bringing us to the final result.Only for the hip-hop section of the song did we use a prerecorded beat from YouTube. All other instruments and rhythms were played by the students without the use of electronic means. Finally, the students  were recorded  playing and singing at a studio and  I created the music video by filming my students according to the script we came up with togethe
