This song is the first song Alexis Lontos Leonidou published on Youtube in a long time. Here’s what he had to say about the song:

I haven’t participated in the Greek music repertoire for a couple of years, but whatever this guy Christos Mastoras sings, I really like it! He has a great voice and technique which I believe cements him as one of the best Greek singers of his generation! Enjoy a glimpse of me covering one of his songs, To Kyma, randomly! 🙂

Lyrics: Αγάπη μου σου γράφω ένα ποίημα θα θελα να ζήσω σ’ένα κύμα να με πάει και να με φέρνει και στις σκέψεις σου να μπαίνει να γλιστράω στα μαλλιά σου στον λαιμό σου να κρυφτώ να μεθάω με το άρωμα σου να χορεύω στο κενό Πάρε με μαζί σου στο πιο όμορφο όνειρο πάνω στο κορμί σου στου φιλιού σου τον βυθό θα ‘σαι εσύ το κύμα θα ‘μαι αέρας που φυσά σου υπόσχομαι ταξίδια ασημένια και χρυσά Αγάπη μου στα δυο σου μάτια ανοίγονται θλιμμένα μονοπάτια μες στην θλίψη θα βαδίσω τις πληγές σου για να κλείσω και όταν φτάσω ως την άκρη και το μαύρο έχει χαθεί θα χαράξω ένα δάκρυ μια υπόσχεση ακριβή Πάρε με μαζί σου στο πιο όμορφο όνειρο πάνω στο κορμί σου στου φιλιού σου τον βυθό θα ‘σαι εσύ το κύμα θα ‘μαι αέρας που φυσά σου υπόσχομαι ταξίδια ασημένια και χρυσά © 2017 PANIK RECORDS

Το Κύμα in Greek means “The Wave”.

The song, To Kyma, was released in 2017, by the Greek band “Melisses”. It was composed by the group, Μουσική – Στίχοι: ΜΕΛΙSSΕS. It is a beautiful love ballad, that brings out the tenderness in the voice of the singer, Christos Mastoras. The song is well-crafted and composed making passion resonate through its simplicity.
