Antio - Goodbye (New Song) | Day 69

This is my new song -Antio- (Which means "Goodbye" in Greek). 




The Story behind it: 
A beloved aunt of mine passed away in the middle of March in 2016 and the same day she died, pain was so deep that I wanted to express it in a paper. So, I wrote this Greek song. 

and I uploaded it on her birthday: March 5th

It's so hard losing someone you love and it's even harder to go back to the time that you lost that person. That's why I was never in the mood to write this blog post. 

That woman was a very lovely woman, had a very lovely soul and the only thing I remember the most is that I've always seen her smiling. There was always a smile on her face, I've never seen her the other way. 

A month after I wrote this song, I wrote 3 poems for her in 2 hours in her 40 day memorial. 

The feeling that you feel when someone has just died -the atmosphere, the air, everything- is the worst feeling I have ever experienced. 

About the video: 
We did the film shootings in a Friday morning in my hometown N. Alikarnassos, next to the harbour. My friend Nikos helped me with the shootings and I truly appreciate his help and his tolerance. He's the first best friend I ever made and I really appreciate him helping me do whatever I've put on mind. 

CLOTHES: I do want to thank a lot the clothe store: GIGOLO Fashion in Heraklion (Daidalou & Perdikari 4) for choosing the best outfit for this occasion. It's amazing working with them. Every time I want their help for clothes they are willing to help with a smile on their face. And the most important of all: Their work and professionality rocks. Their clothes are the best out there quality-wise, fashion-wise etc. They picked out the best outfit for this video and I really thank them a lot. 

RECORDING: Through the Young Song Festival in Heraklion (That was an unprofessional translation) I got to meet and work with a very talented and unique artist Manos Papadakis (Megalakos Productions) and it was truly an unforgettable experience for me. I got to record in a wonderful studio "STUDIO ASTRA" owned by Kostas Markakis -a very experienced man in music- and record a song that meant so much to me. So, undoubtedly, it was the perfect match. Recording "Antio", with the help and guidance of two so good professionals. I owe them a big thank you for this great experience. It has forever been engraved in my heart and mind. 

Thank you so much for the support. This song means the world to me. 



Here is the English translation of the song. 

Goodbye
Oh If I could tell you a Goodbye
Before the soul gets lost in the cold
You gave me a lot

See you
When our paths get together 
We'll be saying
"Oh how time passed by" 
but it won't be our fault
life will have passed by

I refuse  to accept that I won't see you again
We were far away from each other but I feel pain
Oh you can't imagine how much I love you

It may be you that is gone
But it's me who has no life
With this little world
I want to say Goodbye 

Sadness
and a phone call that destroys everything
Full of tears, I pick up what is left
Your eyes are closed 

Help
I ask for help desperately 
How can I get over it? 
You're really gone so suddenly 

Your laugh, your heart and the sweet soul of yours
Are all gone and not even your breathe has stayed
Now I will only say to you "Sleep" 

It may be you that is gone
But it's me who has no life
With this little world
I want to say Goodbye 

-

Thank you for being a part of my journey. You make this journey so wonderful and I love you so much for always being here. 

Peace, Lionder
