She talked about her career, her personal life and her pregnancy at 19 in an interview Evi Droutsa. As the lyricist said, she got pregnant by accident and didn’t realize it until 4 and a half months.
The well-known lyricist was a guest on the ANT1 show “The2night Show” and Grigoris Arnautoglou where, among other things, he revealed: “In the house I have now I don’t have any records. I put them in a warehouse, I don’t want them to be taken by someone who won’t know how to treat them. He might be selling them on the street when I die.”
“Sometimes I’m a woman, but sometimes I’m also Chevas the Tegulas”
“I raised my child alone, it wasn’t easy. Now I am freed. They don’t flirt with me now, but I don’t go out much,” she emphasized lyricist and explained: “Men don’t want women with that much personality. Sometimes I’m a woman, but sometimes I’m also Chevas or Tegulas.”
“I’ve always been hurt in my life, only now I’m not. It wasn’t easy to change. In general, I love people very much, I tell the truth everywhere. I can’t lie. I can stand to hear the truth. It is your mirror.”
Referring to her pregnancy, Evi Droutsa said: “I got pregnant by accident. This randomly drove me crazy. Going one night with a man, being 4 and a half months pregnant and not realizing it, do you know what it is? I was 19, I had my child, I became paranoid and suddenly the verse came to me, without ever thinking that I want to write verses. I was reading too much. We lived with my uncle, Manolis Anagnostakis, the great poet. He wrote poems and had me read them to him. That helped me a lot and still does.”
“”Dare” was my first song that became a hit. My husband was friends with Vardis at the time. I got angry one day, I write two songs, I throw them in the library, Antonis sees them after a while, reads them and made two songs at Pizza Papadopoulou”, he underlined.
He then referred to how he wrote songs in Marinella saying:
“I owe my entire career to Makis Matsa. He asked me for a song because he was going to appear for the first time in “Rex”, in a theater. I direct all the songs.
Antonis Remos had asked me for a song like “Dromos”. I told him then that he can’t, because he doesn’t have the experience. For “Paliokairo”, it wasn’t raining the day I wrote it. I don’t know how they come to me. They tell me “I want this” and I sit down and write it. I have also written a lot about music. Makis Matsas taught me that. I wrote all of Korkolis on the music. To Alkaios I said “you will be because I want it”. The difficulty in “Ti, Ti” was to connect it with the couplet. I have Alkaios again now, we are writing.”
