I was 15 back then and that tight white T-shirt on Constantinos became a part of my coming-of-age fantasies and, later, also of my cultural iconography. I still feel the chills everytime I rewatch this act.
Many comments say that Konatantinos is a failed Rouvas. But he's really a great singer and has done a nice career. Deserved a bit higher but that was a strong year.
As I recall, it was originally supposed to be Elena Patroklou who competed in '91 and she is in the studio version I think but for some reason they switched. She had a much deeper voice which complemented the song better.
Η τραγική στιγμή που καταλαβαίνεις πως η Ελίνα Κωνσταντοπούλου που συμμετέχει έχει με διάφορα την καλύτερη φωνή από όλους που είναι στο stage και κυρίως από τον τραγουδιστή....😛
Όντως... Κάτι ήξερε η Έλενα Πατρόκλου (επίσης πολύ καλή φωνή, η οποία ακούγεται στο επίσημο βίντεοκλιπ) που δεν συμμετείχε στο λάιβ… Ο Χριστοφόρου, στην καλύτερη περίπτωση τραγουδάει σαν αρχάριος μαθητής φωνητικής.
Elina as the backing singer whose function is to come and go behind the mirror and to handle the stick to Constantinos is EVERYTHING! :D Btw, does her singing sound live to you ?
I don't know why, but I love this song. Definitely a favorite, strong voice, great performance, everything is fantastic, very underrated. Love from Serbia 🇷🇸❤️🇨🇾
He took part in 1996 as a soloist finishing in 9th place then he sang again for Cyprus in 2002 as the lead singer of boyband ONE, finishing in 6th place.
Βγαινει η Ελινα και εξαφανιζετε ο Χριστοφορου φωνητικα...μεγαλη αποσταση!!! Ελινα φωναρα!!!
Love this song with all my heart! Konstantinos is an excellent performer and song writer! ❤❤❤❤❤
Eurovision 2005 had the BEST songs ever! Greetings from 🇷🇸 to our brothers from 🇨🇾❤️❤️❤️
The Cypriot and Greek back up dancers at Eurovision are always the fucking HOTTEST! Gorgeous black hair and muscles OMG!
17 years after , Cyprus send more elas.
STOP PLSSS 😭
And Sweden sending heroes...

Kisses from Greece! You should definitely have been in the top 5
Anything should've been in the top 5 instead of Latvia that year.

Kid: Mum, can we have Sakis? Mum: We already have Sakis at home! Sakis at home:
😂
Lol
OH PLEASE. GET A LIFE
Fun fact: just realised the backing singer in the silky white outfit at the beginning of the song represented Greece in 1995
As I recall, it was originally supposed to be Elena Patroklou who competed in '91 and she is in the studio version I think but for some reason they switched. She had a much deeper voice which complemented the song better.
@@ragnaice Konstantinos claimed that they had differences about the stage performance. She wanted a bigger role. So they changed her.
@@viewerlife For all of them it's a step down from their 1990s entries. Or two...

The singer and the choreography is everything! Konstantinos always is doing his best for his country! Feel proud!

Ο ένας χορευτής είναι ο Βρεττός και ο αλλος ειναι ο Γιάννης Αποστολάκης επισης τραγουδιστής. Ηταν και σε ενα fame story αν δεν κανω λάθος.
I love this song incredibly. 2021.

Good old eastern/Mediterranean Europe pop song which ESC and world music factory really misses these times👍

How I miss this kind of songs.. 00s were the best for Eurovision❤️
Elina Kostantopoulou!💫💖💯
14 years later... and I just noticed the dancers weren't hitting the drums at all. Oh my.
Such an underestimated performance. It should have been in the Top10. Constantinos is such a hottie. Wish we could see him again in the ESC.
He sent the song " Billy bam ban" to ERT in 2019 to represent Greece. It is rumured he has proposed a song to ERT for 2022 too.
Great song and great performers , this song could have won if not first place, be in the first 10
elina konstantopoulou as a backing singer??? cool :3
Poxa que apresentação espetacular.
Γεια σου Ελινάρα! Διαχρονικά όμορφη και φωνάρα!
Η Ελινα τα σπάει φωνητικά
I know the choreography is bad and the lyrics are generic but this song is so catchy I keep coming back to it 😂😂😂
I love it i cant understand why so low
Έλα Ελινάρα την αγαπώ😘😘
The only talent in this entry is the backup singing of Elina Konstantopoulou
Heehehe Hehe shade 😛😛
2022 ESC Cyprus Ela
the original Ela😂❤️❤️
His first entry was in 1996, 8 years before Sakis
And he represented also Cyprus in 2002 with the boy band "One". So in 2005 was his third time at Eurovision.
Τι φωναρα η Ελίνα !
Belarus 2007 stole some ideas from Cyprus 2005. I'm talking about staging. Nice song
How? Work your magic is still superior to this in every aspect
Ελινάκι μας γλυκό, πόσο σ'αγαπάμε, ΦΩΝΑΡΑΑΑΑΑΑΑΑΑ!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Seeing him wear that tight t shirt was when I realised I was gay 😂😍
Deserved better than 18th. Very nice dance bop.
Cultura musical griega,muy buena¡
Cyprus is a second Greek state that's why
Τότε που πήγαιναν τραγουδαρες και το σόου δεν ήταν στημένο 🤷🏼♀️ εμένα μου λείπει τ 90s 🥺
Divno 🤗
Hala.hatırlıyorum bu guzel sarkiyi
The best of Eurovision 2005. 🇷🇸
This performance was so camp haha
He is like Sakis just for poor people....
Ο ίδιος τίτλος με φέτος της Ανδρομάχης
Otan nomizeis oti eisai o sakis alla den eisai..
😱 omggg don't tell me that she was Elina Konstantinopolou 😱😱😱😱 1995 Greek representative with Pia Prosefxi
Yes, she was Elina Konstantopoulou who represented Greece in Eurovision 1995 with the song "Pia prosefhi".
This comment section is a mix of people shading him and people simping over him
Such a typical Eurovision song from the 00s, lol. Crappy but catchy. BTW. Is the song about STD, lol?
legeeeeend
trelenomeeeee
I had a huge crush on him as a kid
fantastic song
That night Greece won and Cyprus trolled everyone ✌️
P.s I am from Cyprus
How is this trolling?
This didn't trol. Additionally He should've in top 10.
Harika şarkıydı...
Bellissima i
Let that lady sing all song please
she did in 1995! a very underestimated song named pia prosefhi
@@kona0812 thanks
πωωωω ήμουν 10 χρόνων με το CD player παραμάσχαλα στο σχολείο θυμάμαι

Ψυχή και καλό παιδί!

Does someone know the name of the backing singer?
Elina Konstantopoulou
GemeMistery She represented Greece in 1995
Is it me or does this seem like a copy of Shake It?
There are similarities but I love both.
ΤΕΛΕΙΟΟ
2005: ela ela ela
2018: yeah yeah yeah
2022: Ela Ela, Ela Ela
Did he also take part in 1996?
He took part in 1996 as a soloist finishing in 9th place then he sang again for Cyprus in 2002 as the lead singer of boyband ONE, finishing in 6th place.
Άδικα ήρθε 18η κύπρος 2005
Η Κύπρος τερμάτισε στην 18η θέση ανάμεσα σε 24 χώρες στην Γιουροβίζιον του 2005.
Funilly enough .. this isnt the only time Cyprus mispronounced "Ela" on the ESC
Πειράζει που η Ελίνα τα σπάει ακόμα και με αυτή τη μικρή της εμφάνιση???
This song deserved a better position imo
from the bottom? LOL μαρή
all cypriots masterpieces are called ela
Συγγνώμη που θα το πω αλλά η σκηνική παρουσία είναι σαν αυτοσχεδιασμός. ... κανένας συντονισμός
... is this the same guy who sang in 1996?
Yes, also 2002 "gimme gimme".
Thanks for the comments, im forever grateful 😊 hope you found peace of mind in my songs?
αγαπώ κυπρο
Στείλτε τον στην Eurovision να αποκτήσει νόημα ο διαγωνισμός να φέρει καλή θέση άιντε ξυπνήστε
Ναι, μωρέ η Eurovision τον Χριστόφορου περίμενε. Είμαι σίγουρα πως αν ξαναπάει, θα πατώσει πάλι με αυτές τις βλακείες που τραγουδάει.
Omg... it's not "eeela" it's ELA! -.-
Where are we going?
vers more bottom
I'm going to tell my kids this was sakis
Εν κούκλος ο Κωνσταντίνος Χριστόφορου
12 points to Cyprus from Greece 🇬🇷❤🇨🇾
Constantinos was amazing in 1996. His other two entries don't even come close to comparing.
this boy is what a call a shrimp - we take off the head and can eat the whole body without problem :D

Exact
Have anyone noticed the similarities between Cyprus and Greece's entries? Like, except that Ela Ela is a big mess...
the only similarity between those songs is that they both are pop-ethnic but the staging is different!
"Θες να κάνουμε σχεσσιιε;" -Jeremy
Μεγαλύτερο εγώ δν υπάρχει. Το έγραψε μουσική στίχους το είπε κιόλας . Τα ήθελε όλα γτ το είχε πιστέψει ότι θα κερδίσει.
Όμως αν το έγραψε όντως ο ίδιος γιατί να μη το πει; Να κατανοήσω αυτό που λες αν πήρε τα credits χωρίς να το έχει γράψει μόνος του
Cue campest entrance ever at 00:41
Sakis Rouvas on budget
ay bu niye kafama takıldı yahu? djdhsmdmdk neyse herhalde güzel şarkı olduğundan.
