about

Sampled from "Logia Adallaxame Varia" (i.e. we exhanged heavy words), a 1950' track by Tony Maroudas, lyrics by Eutyhia Papagiannopoulou, original vocals by Marika Ninou. We fancied that the lyrics and melody could be part of a trip hop time. Based on that we wrote the piano intro and the guitar parts.

lyrics

Logia antalaksame baria thn teleftea th bradia
kai rizwse to misos sthn psyxh mas,
gi ayto to skefthka poly eis to ekshs den wfelei
na synexisoyme me tetoia th zwh mas.

Tha `tan kalytera tharrw na basistoyme ston kairo
poy ola ta sbhnei apala ki agali agali
ki an ksexastoyn kamia fora ta logia ekeina ta baria
isws agaph moy na smiksoyme kai pali.

Ma twra kai pros to paron anhkei pia sto parelthon
o erwtas mas poy mas eixe basanisei,
giati ta logia ta baria mas thn plhgwsan thn kardia
kai kindyneyei h agaph mas na sbhsei.



Λόγια ανταλλάξαμε βαριά την τελευταία τη βραδιά
και ρίζωσε το μίσος στην ψυχή μας,
γι αυτό το σκέφτηκα πολύ, εις το εξής δεν ωφελεί
να συνεχίσουμε με τέτοια τη ζωή μας.

Θα `ταν καλύτερα θαρρώ να βασιστούμε στον καιρό
που όλα τα σβήνει απαλά κι αγάλι αγάλι
κι αν ξεχαστούν καμιά φορά τα λόγια εκείνα τα βαριά
ίσως αγάπη μου να σμίξουμε και πάλι.

Μα τώρα και προς το παρόν ανήκει πια στο παρελθόν
ο έρωτάς μας που μας είχε βασανίσει,
γιατί τα λόγια τα βαριά μας την πληγώσαν την καρδιά
και κινδυνεύει η αγάπη μας να σβήσει.
