Mia Krifi Evesthisia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mia Krifi Evesthisia (Greek script Μια κρυφή ευαισθησία, English translation: "A Secret Illusion") was the Greek entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1998, performed in Greek by Thalassa.
The song was performed second on the night (following Croatia's Danijela with Neka Me Ne Svane and preceding France's Marie Line with Où Aller). At the close of voting, it had received 12 points, placing 20th in a field of 25.
The song deals with the obsessive feelings felt in a relationship, with the singer suggesting that she will "walk in your [her lover's] imagination".
With the rapid expansion of the Contest, the decision was taken to restrict entry to those countries which had performed better over the previous 5 years, a group which did not include Greece. Thus, Greece was not invited to the 1999 Contest. Neither did they enter the 2000 Contest. Thus, the song was succeeded as Greek representative at the 2001 Contest by Antique with (I Would) Die For You.
