I really think that everyone should check out Helena Paparizou's new album "The Game of Love".
In my humble opinion, it is one of the most professionally crafted Greece-related music products. And I really mean this. Even the accent is 99% US sounding [although the album is clearly Europe-oriented!]. Sorry for the 1% but in some words the Greek accent drops by.
As for the compositions, they are very easy going and within the current music trends [listen for example to "Somebody's Burning"]. Helena's voice is exceptional which is more than obvious on "Teardrops", "Gigolo" and "The Game of Love". Those of you who remember the 80's will recognize a Taylor Dayne tone in the more western styled songs.
Above all, give an ear [or two or three or four or...] to "Carpe Diem [Seize The Day]". I firmly believe that we are in front of a massive superhit. Hopefully, with the right support from the label...
We should also not forget to mention the high quality art design of the album booklet as well which was a very pleasant surprise.
