At 51 years old and still going strong, Anna Vissi is often referred to as 'the Greek Madonna'. She has had a music career in Greece and Cyprus since the late 1970s and pretty much hasn't looked back. She is highest-selling Greek female artist of all time and in 2008 released her 25th studio album, Agaporevmeno. She had countless #1's and won dozens of awards in both Greece and her native Cyprus.
Her latest single in Greece was Fabulous which is still on the charts and for which a video is currently in the works. As noted in the image above, she has been on tour in Greece this year with The Fabulous Show. Another highlight from the album was early 2009's release Stin Pira which reached #1 in Cyprus and #3 in Greece.
Her successes in North America have been limited to her song Call Me reaching #1 on the Billboard Dance Music Charts in 2004 although she is currently working on an English album for release in 2010. My personal favourite of all her songs is Fevgo, which was a release only in Cyprus in 2004 as a single (reaching #10) and which came from her 2003 #1 selling album Paraksenes Eikones.
Below find videos for Stin Pira, a fan video for Fabulous and Anna's epic and (overly)-emotional performance of Everything at the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest which was held in Athens. Also, find download links for her latest singles, as well as Call Me and Fevgo.
Enjoy!
