Background
Ímaste dió was one of the songs written by Mikis Theodorakis for prominent member of the Greek left Andreas Lentakis (1935-1997) towards the end of the 1960s.[2] At the time of the 7 year military dictatorship in Greece this song, whose theme was the torture and isolation of a political detainee in prison,[3] became a major rallying cry of the Greek leftwing political groups.[4] The song is also featured in a comedy by Thanasis Veggos about the forbidden songs in Greece during the time of the Colonels.[5]
Versions
A French version of Eimaste Dio, Nous sommes deux, was popularized by singer Georges Moustaki in the 1970s.[6] A second version was recorded with different lyrics by singer Dalida with the title A chaque fois j'y crois in 1977.[7]
A Swedish version, Två, was recorded by singer Sven-Bertil Taube in 1974.[8]
