The History of the Creation and Meaning of the Song Forever And Ever by Demis Roussos
Forever And Ever is the second studio album by Greek singer and composer Demis Roussos, released by Philips Records in 1973. The album achieved great popularity and topped the charts in Germany, Norway and the Netherlands. In Austria, the album reached second place in the national chart.
This album is considered one of the best in the career of the outstanding Greek singer Demis Roussos. Several compositions from “Forever and Ever” became his calling card and most famous works. It was thanks to this album that Roussos gained real fame. After leaving the group Aphrodite's Child in 1971, he began a solo career, but did not achieve significant success for several years. It was this album that brought him to the top of popularity, ensuring high positions in the European charts and large-scale concert tours.
Demis Roussos has repeatedly achieved gold and platinum status for his records. However, it was the album “Forever and Ever” that brought him worldwide fame. The single of the same name stood out in particular, achieving the greatest commercial success and causing the warmest response from listeners.
Demis Roussos was often called the "Greek nightingale". He was loved all over the world for his incomparable voice and romantic songs dedicated to noble feelings. The artist's concerts gathered full halls, and this was facilitated not only by his special tenor, but also by bright and theatrical shows. Roussos's work continues to live as long as his compositions sound in the hearts of listeners. Love ballads performed by him still remain an adornment of the music collections of millions around the world.
This voice amazes with its magic and amazing sound. Nature has awarded its owner with a beautiful tenor, which really seems like a miracle. Listening to it is a real pleasure. Add to this the magnificent Greek music, national instruments and original sound, and you get a powerful and bright effect.
Roussos's connection to mass-market pop music is so strong that his other works remain largely of interest to collectors and music rarities. Outside of the album "Forever and Ever," Demis Roussos's recordings are virtually unheard of.
