Nana Mouskouri sings Children of the Stars, one of her most famous songs abroad; what is really interesting is that this song has been something like a trademark for Nana Mouskouri when singing abroad, but it’s also one of the most known Greek songs in Greece. It is a song written and composed by Manos Hadjidakis and its original Greek title is Milise mou, which means Talk to me.
The song Children of the Stars stands out due to its playful music and tone, and its rhythmic tone and very catchy lyrics. In both its Greek and English version the song is much beloved, and it is not accidental that most foreigners recognize this song in whatever language they hear it playing – even if they cannot really sing the Greek Lyrics.
The Greek version of the song is obviously a love song, but in this case the song is much more generic and with some funny lyrics, including the signs – it is about the children of the stars anyway…
