HEY!! SOME THINGS SO THEY CAN HELP YOU BETTER UNDERSTAND THE STORY BEHIND THIS SONG. Her dad passed away a few days before the Eurovision song contest and she had to travel to the north of Greece to the only Muslim cemetery in the country. There she saw many clusters of graves with same dates of death. They were graves of migrants/refugees who drowned trying to reach the Greek shores in overcrowded boats. The song is dedicated to her father, but also tries to raise awareness for the refugees crisis that is being unfolding in the Mediterranean sea the last decade with people trying to flee warzones, political or ideological prosecutions and poverty. And are being exploited by traffickers and risk their lives in unsafe boats, that often don't make the voyage. When the song was released in POP album and I listened to it, I was in tears, and I still am every time I listen to it. The video is a masterpiece! One ha to look closely at every little detail which has a meaning. The Mediterranean countries affected by the refugee crisis are Greece, Italy and Spain, and there's reference to Italy with the car - a classic Alfa Romeo75 Quattrofolio - and Spain - look at the the words on the tray carrying the Greek "beach donuts", as we call them. Also the name of the boat, it's "Zoe", which means "Life". The sign on the rocky part of the beach "NO TRESSPASSING" and the macho-looking man next to it, implying all those ultra-rights who wish refugees and imigrants kicked out. The colours have a meaning, everything. This is typical for Marina's work, but not very common in other Greek artists and it makes her stand out. 💙🤍
For all the immigrants who simply want and dream to live what you surely have and for all the souls who are lost in the world😢
Tribute to her immigrant dad ♥
