i seem to remember a greek entry a couple of years back, the guy could hardly sing but it stll finished in the top 6
sakis will be thereabouts
as for anan vissi, i was in athens and all the greeks i spoke to were not impressed with her and thought she would fail
mutton dressed as lamb doesn't do well in eurovision

The greeks always assume their "megastar" will win eurovision. The hype over Anna Vissi in 2006 was ridiculous and she came nowhere. Sakis' song is awful, very dated all too familiar lyrics and tune.
The 300,000 Greeks in North London will ensure it gets the most from the televote but juries won't be impressed with this.

Iffy lyrics for sure, but that doesn't matter a great deal at Eurovision. He's a good performer, the song is highly effective, if rather contrived, and it ticks most of the required boxes for a lot of votes.
Potential winner? I'll be holding fire on any comments of that nature for some time yet.
