Songs That Made History - ERT Archive   (R)   
Documentary / Music





Fifteen Greek songs that made history, each in its own genre, from Smyrnaic and Rebetiko to 'elafro', 'laiko', and 'entekhno'. These are works by great Greek creators who expressed the historical and societal context of their times, forming a portrait of the diversity and expressive power of Greek music in the 20th century. Each episode explores the 'portrait' of a song through rich audiovisual and archival material. The camera captures the testimonies of the creators themselves and researchers while visiting the locations directly connected to the creation of each musical genre.

Today: «Don't Ask Me» (Manos Loizos) (1974) (17/09 Anniversary of his death)

The documentary focuses on the song "Mi me rotas" (Don't Ask Me), one of Manos Loïzos' most personal songs, with lyrics by Lefteris Papadopoulos. It was written during the dictatorship and released after its fall in 1974.

The core of this song lies in the disillusionment of people's dreams and struggles, a multiple disillusionment on political, personal, and romantic levels.
