Hey

This one I think is difficult - but ... we'll see.

I am looking for what I believe is a Cypriot song.
It is a modern song, which I think was very popular in late 2009, at least I heard it a few times on the radio.
It sounds like a group I think. As far as I remember there are 2,3 maybe 4 men singing.

It was pretty catchy and pop. not rock, techno or anything like that.

Any ideas ? :-)

Nope - because I can hardly recall it myself.

I remember thinking that it almost sounded like a cover of an international song - but don't think it was actually.

Those 2, 3 or 4 men singing - they weren't shortish guys with black hair and an eye for the ladies were they?

Hey

So close to finding my song....

However - does anybody know what the name of the larger Cypriot radios are, that will play "modern pop" like Constantinos Christoforou ?

I think that most of the larger Cypriot radios are Phillips or maybe Hitachi. How big do you need?

Oh, I am sorry for my bad English. Should I have written "Radio Channels" instead, or what would have been the correct use of words ?

Don't apologise - your English is infinitely better than my Danish!!!

Stations or Channels will do.

I tried to find out about a song last summer also and maybe it's the same one it was very popular and really catchy. Found the paper I wrote it on & XAPTOPIXTPA is either the name of the group or the name of the song
I can't write the other word as I don't have a greek keybord but I'll do my best
nANOW (turn the W sideways) and the other word is KIAMOW (again turn the W sideways)

This is the singer Panos Kiamos - if you youtube him, it will bring lots of his songs up so you could have a look through those. Or if you put Popular Greek songs 2009 it will list them for you. Have a look round you tube and you may be lucky.
