Music
Beguin the Beguine – Artie Shaw
An 1930s jazz standard with a unique melody….
Strange – Patsy Cline
Featured as a single in Patsy Cline’s ”Sentimentally Yours” studio album, the song has a sad tune and speaks of a man leaving his girlfriend for another woman from the perspective of the abandoned girl.
Don’t Mess With My Mind – EMO
As anyone would expect from a song featured in the 365 Days sequel, it is full of passion and eroticism and acts as the background of the sexual encounter between the two protagonists.
Your Eyes – Cook Da Books
This is one of those romantic songs that transport you back to your teenage years and the first time you ever fell in love.
Τι Ζητάς – Ellize
RnB is a music genre not so popular in Greece. However, this amazing song brings it into spotlight with it’s beautiful lyrics and aesthetic.
Starlight – Yola
Yola’s voice is captivating! And the whole vibe of the song conveys so much emotion…
Strangers in the Night – Cake
In my humble opinion this version is better than Frank Sinatra’s original. More sentimental and yet with a nice modern touch…
