Evridiki - Cyprus 1992 - Kieran Hegarty

Evridiki was no stranger to the Greek music scene before her first Eurovision participation in 1992; she already had several collaborations with established artists, a solo album and three Eurovision experiences as a backing singer before heading off to Malmö. It was after her performance of "Teriazoume," however, that she was catapulted into superstardom with the release of her 1993 album Misise Me.

Much of Evridiki's career in the 1990s stemmed from her collaborations with Cypriot songwriter Giorgos Theofanous, who composed both "Teriazoume" and her 1994 Eurovision song "Ime Anthropos Ki Ego," as well as Evridiki's first nine studio albums. The two were also involved romantically, marrying in 1994 and having a child in 1996.

After her split with Theofanous in 2000, Evridiki began turning her interest towards more alternative styles of music. She released many covers of well known rock songs, and with the release of Oso Fevgo Gyrizo in 2003, featuring some original compositions, she easily established herself as an icon of rock music in the Greekophone world. Her 2000s genre shift was supported by many compositions from musician Dimitris Korgialas, who she was also married to for a time.

In addition to many of her albums, Korgialas composed "Comme ci, comme ça," the entry she performed in her return to Eurovision in 2007. Despite its relatively poor result, Evridiki remains one of the most famous, well-respected and best-selling artists in the Greek and Cypriot music industry, with 16 albums, over 50 music videos, and constant appearances on Greek Television. As such, it may only be a matter of time before we in the Eurovision world hear from Evridiki again.
