Nikos Deja Vu - A different Lionel Richie's "Hello" [HD]

I've been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello
is it me you're looking for?
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
You're all I've ever wanted, and my arms are open wide
Because you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much,
I love you....

Nikos Deja Vu - SABATON - Coat of Arms [HD]




Nikos Deja Vu - SABATON - Coat of Arms [HD]
=> LYRICS <=
That dawn, envoy arrives
Morning of October 28th
No day, proven by deed
Descendence of Sparta,
Athens and Crete!
Look north, ready to fight
Enemies charge from the hills
To arms, facing defeat
There's no surrender,
there's no retreat
Time after time,
force their enemies back to the line
Call to Arms banners fly in the wind,
For the glory of Hellas
Coat of Arms reading freedom or death,
Blood of king Leonidas
Air raid, pounding the land
Bombers are flying both day and night
Endure, six days of rain
Dropped by invaders,
bomb raid in vain
Strike hard, the tables have turned,
Drive them back over the hills
At arms, just like before,
Soldiers, civilians, Hellas at war
By their own hand,
force their enemy out of their land
Call to Arms banners fly in the wind,
For the glory of Hellas
Coat of Arms reading freedom or death,
Blood of king Leonidas
Just like their ancestors ages ago
Fought in the place of the greeks
Cause we will remember what the place were called
Freedom or death in the plains
Just like their ancestors ages ago
Fought in the face of defeat
Those three hundred men left a pride to uphold
Freedom or death in effect
Then, now again
Blood of heroes saving their land
Call to Arms banners fly in the wind,
For the glory of Hellas
Coat of Arms reading freedom or death,
Blood of king Leonidas......

Nikos Deja Vu - The 2012 Carnival in Greece!

Nikos Deja Vu - The 2012 Carnival in Greece

Celebration ... a chance to escape everyday monotony and enter into a world of party, fantasy, jinks and 'kefi' (high spirits) ... a feast of dance, wine and meat before the sacrifices and fasting of Lent.

The Tradition of Apokries / Karnavali (Apokries may also be spelt Apokreas, Apokrias): In Greece the Carnival started in Ancient times, believed to be as a worship to Dionysos, the God of Wine and Feast. In the Orthodox tradition Apokries is the preparation period before Lent. Apokries means literally saying goodbye to meat - Apoxh apo kreas - apo-kreas. In Latin the roots of the word Carnival has the same meaning - 'carne' is meat and 'vale' goodbye.

Apokries runs for three weeks immediately preceding Lent. In 2012 Apokries runs from Sunday 5 February to Sunday 26 February, while Clean Monday ('Kathara Deftera' or 'Kathari Deftera') falls on Monday 27 February 2012. First Week of Apokries - from Sunday 5 February 2012. Apokries starts with the opening of the book of the Triodion, the 3 holy sacraments.

Second Week- Meat week - Officially the last week of eating meat until after Lent. Tsiknopempti - Thursday of meat week. Tsikna is the smell of burning meat. It was the custom on Tsikonpempti for everyone (including the poor) to charcoal grill meat and to melt fat over it so the smell of 'burning' meat permeated whole villages. It is still the tradition to eat meat on Tsiknopempti, although nowadays it is usual to go to a taverna for the meat feast. You'll find that tavernas everywhere are packed and many have live music too. Another glendi!

Third Week - Cheese Week. This week was also called 'White Week' as people ate mostly dairy products and eggs. Meat was forbidden from Monday of cheese week until after Lent.
Many people still adhere to this. Women never washed their hair during this week as it was said it would turn white if they did.

Tyrofagis Sunday
- 26 February 2012: The majority of Carnival Parades are held on this day, the last day of Apokries. The final day of Apokries, and it's also the last day until after Easter that church weddings are allowed to take place. The Orthodox Church still follows the tradition that no weddings or celebrations can take place during the 50 days of Lent. The old tradition says don't get married on this day; if you do it will be an unhappy marriage! Carnival parades are held on this, the last day of Apokrias.

Clean Monday
- 27 February 2012 The day after Tyrofagis Sunday is 'Kathara Deftera' , also called 'Kathari Deftera', or Clean Monday, which falls on 27 February 2012.
Clean Monday marks the end of Apokries and is the first day of Lent (Sarakosti). Fasting starts today and traditionally no meat, fish, eggs, dairy products or oil are allowed to be eaten for the 49 days leading up to Easter. Clean Monday is a Bank Holiday in Greece and also seen as the start of springtime; it is celebrated by an excursion to the mountains or the beach to enjoy a Lenten picnic or taverna meal, and fly a kite!

Masqueraders (Pronounced 'mask - e - ra - des' in Greek): During the three weeks of Apokries children, teenagers and adults alike dress up in (often outrageous!) disguises and masks and visit the houses of friends and neighbours who try to guess the identities of the masqueraders. The town and village cafés, tavernas and bars are also visited by masqueraders, usually armed with cans of foam, streamers and confetti. Weekends, and the final carnival weekend in particular, are the most popular periods for dressing-up and many masked balls, dances and children's parties are held at various venues throughout the three week carnival period. Apokries culminates with the Grand Carnival Parades, a number of which are held throughout Crete and Greece, usually on the last Apokries weekend - Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th February in 2012.

Carnival Parades: Carnival Parades are held all over Crete and Greece, with the majority taking place on the last Sunday of Apokries.In Crete many towns and villages hold carnivals; the largest of which takes place in Rethymnon on Sunday 26th February at 2pm. Other Crete carnivals are normally held in: Heraklion, Souda, Paleochora, Kalyves, Kastelli. Groups of friends get together to form teams, deciding on a theme for their floats and costumes. These can take months to make and are generally used only once, with originals produced each year. Prizes are sometimes awarded for the best floats and costumes and there can be great ( friendly!) rivalry between teams. The largest and most famous Greek carnival of all is held in the town of Patras in the Peleponnese on the Greek mainland.

Nikos Deja Vu - Τσικνοπέμπτη (Smelling Thursday)

Τσικνοπέμπτη
Smelling Thursday

Η Πέμπτη της δεύτερης εβδομάδας του Τριωδίου (Κρεατινής) ονομάζεται Τσικνοπέμπτη ή Τσικνοπέφτη, επειδή την ημέρα αυτή όλα τα σπίτια ψήνουν κρέας ή λειώνουν το λίπος από τα χοιρινά και ο μυρωδάτος καπνός (τσίκνα) είναι διάχυτος παντού. Από αυτή την τσίκνα, λοιπόν, έχει πάρει και το όνομά της η Πέμπτη και λέγεται Τσικνοπέμπτη.

Το έθιμο χάνεται στα βάθη των αιώνων, χωρίς να γνωρίζουμε την προέλευσή του. Εικάζεται, όμως, ότι προέρχεται από τις βακχικές γιορτές των αρχαίων Ελλήνων και Ρωμαίων, που επιβίωσαν του Χριστιανισμού. Σύμφωνα με τον λαογράφο Δημήτριο Λουκάτο, το φαγοπότι και το γλέντι της ημέρας είναι «ομοιοπαθητικές προσπάθειες για την ευφορία της γης».

Την Τσικνοπέμπτη, που βρίσκεται στο μέσο του Τριωδίου, ξεκινούν ουσιαστικά οι εκδηλώσεις της Αποκριάς, οι οποίες κορυφώνονται με τα Κούλουμα την Καθαρά Δευτέρα. Ανάλογες γιορτές υπάρχουν στη Γερμανία (Schmutziger Donnerstag = Λιπαρή Πέμπτη) και στη Νέα Ορλεάνη των ΗΠΑ (Mardi Gras = Λιπαρή Τρίτη), που συνδυάζονται με καρναβαλικές εκδηλώσεις.

Στο έθιμο της Τσικνοπέμπτης και γενικά στην κρεατοφαγία αντιτίθεται η οργάνωση “Πολίτες για τα Δικαιώματα της Φύσης και της Ζωής” (ΠΟΦΥΖΩ), που υποστηρίζει την ιδεολογία του «αντισπισισμού» (anti-speciesism), η οποία στρέφεται κατά της καταπάτησης των δικαιωμάτων των ζώων.

Η Τσικνοπέμπτη ανά την Ελλάδα

Στην παλαιά πόλη της Κέρκυρας τελούνται τα Κορφιάτικα Πετεγολέτσια ή αλλιώς Κουτσομπολιά ή Πέτε Γόλια. Η πετεγολέτσα, το πετεγουλιό όπως το λένε οι Κερκυραίοι, δεν είναι άλλο από το γνωστότατο κουτσομπολιό. Η πετεγολέτσα πραγματοποιείται το βράδυ της Τσικνοπέμπτης, στην Πιάτσα κοντά στην τοποθεσία “Κουκουνάρα”, της πόλης τής Κέρκυρας.

Στην Πάτρα έχουμε το έθιμο της Κουλουρούς. Η Γιαννούλα η Κουλουρού πιστεύει λανθασμένα πως ο Ναύαρχος Ουίλσον είναι τρελά ερωτευμένος μαζί της και πως έρχεται να την παντρευτεί. Γι’ αυτό ντύνεται νύφη και με τη συνοδεία των Πατρινών πηγαίνει να προϋπαντήσει τον καλό της στο λιμάνι. Γύρω της οι Πατρινοί διασκεδάζουν με τα καμώματά της.

Στις Σέρρες ανάβονται μεγάλες φωτιές στις αλάνες, στις οποίες αφού ψήσουν το κρέας, πηδούν από πάνω τους. Στο τέλος κάποιος από την παρέα με χιούμορ αναλαμβάνει τα «προξενιά», ανακατεύοντας ταυτόχρονα τα κάρβουνα με ένα ξύλο.

Στην Κομοτηνή καψαλίζουν την κότα που θα φαγωθεί την επόμενη Κυριακή (της Απόκρεω). Αυτήν την ημέρα τα αρραβωνιασμένα ζευγάρια ανταλλάσσουν δώρα φαγώσιμα. Ο αρραβωνιαστικός στέλνει στην αρραβωνιαστικιά του μια κότα, τον κούρκο, και εκείνη στέλνει μπακλαβά και μια κότα γεμιστή. Όλα αυτά πραγματοποιούν την παροιμία πως ο «έρωτας περνάει από το στομάχι».

Στο Ηράκλειο της Κρήτης, μικροί και μεγάλοι περιδιαβαίνουν μεταμφιεσμένοι στους δρόμους και στις πλατείες της πόλης, τραγουδώντας και χορεύοντας...

AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION IN ENGLISH

Thursday is the second week of Triodion (creatine) or Tsiknopefti Tsiknopempti called because this day all homes bake meat or melted fat from the pork and the sweet-smelling smoke (smell) is diffused everywhere. In this smell So it gets its name Thursday and called Shrove Thursday.
The custom goes back centuries, without knowing its origin. It is assumed, however, that from the Bacchic festivals of the ancient Greeks and Romans, who survived Christianity. According to folklorist Demetrius Lukacs, the feast and the feast of the day is "homeopathic efforts to fertility of the earth."
On Shrove Thursday, in the middle of the Triodion, essentially the beginning of the carnival events, which culminate with Koulouma on Ash Monday. Similar celebrations are in Germany (Schmutziger Donnerstag = Oily Thursday) and New Orleans, USA (Mardi Gras = Oily Tuesday), combined with a carnival.
In the tradition of Pancake Day, and generally opposed to meat-eating organization "Citizens for the Rights of Nature and Life" (POFYZO), which supports the ideology of "antispisismou» (anti-speciesism), directed against the violation of animal rights .

The Tsiknopempti in Greece

In the old town of Corfu, the Corfiot Petegoletsia committed or otherwise Gossip Golia or adventures. The Petegoletsia the petegoulio as the locals say, is none other than the well-known gossip. The Petegoletsia place the evening of Shrove Thursday, close to Piazza site "Pine", the city of Corfu.
In Patras have the custom of the coils. The Giannoula Kouloura believe erroneously that the Admiral Wilson is madly in love with her and that is to marry her. So dressed bride and escort of Patras goes to greet the good of the harbor. Around it the Patras fun with the antics.
To Serres large bonfires are lit in Alanya, where as roast meat, jump over them. At the end someone in the company of humor takes the "consular", while stirring the coals with a stick.
In Komotini sear the chicken to be eaten the next Sunday (the Carnival). On this day the engaged couples exchange gifts eatable. The fiance fiancee sends a hen, the turkey, and she sends a baklava and stuffed chicken. All these make the adage that the "love passes from the stomach."
In Heraklion, Crete, young and old disguised wander the streets and squares, singing and dancing ...

Το 1993 λοιπόν η εταιρεία κόμιξ που σχεδίαζε τον Λούκυ Λούκ αποφασισε να τον ...σταματήσει απο το να καπνίζει. Η δικαιολογία που προέβαλαν τότε ήταν το πως δίνουν λάθος παράδειγμα στα παιδια για το καπνισμα. Ετσι λοιπόν απο το 1993 και μετα ο Λούκυ Λούκ άρχισε να εμφανιζεται με ενα στάχυ στο στόμα αντί για τσιγάρο...

Υπάρχει ενα παράδοξο όμως σε αυτην την ιστορία : Πως γινεται ενας ήρωας κόμιξ που πυροβολεί και πλακώνει στο ξύλο τους κακούς να κόψει το κάπνισμα επειδή εδινε το λάθος παράδειγμα στα παιδιά; Δηλαδή οταν ΠΥΡΟΒΟΛΕΙ ΚΑΙ ΠΛΑΚΩΝΕΤΑΙ δίνει το σωστό παράδειγμα;

Nikos Deja Vu - Twisted Sister - 30




Nikos Deja Vu - Twisted Sister - 30

Well, we never had the time to plan our life past 30
We were bullet proof, through the roof, nothing could ever hurt it
Never gave a damn about the other side of the hill
Nothing could stop us, nothing ever will
And when we hit the stage, Lord you'd never know
30 came and went a long time a go
We rocked the 80's like we thought they would never end
We can still bring the house down like we did way back when
We can cuss, we can fight, we can go all night
Still tear it up even though
30 came and went a long, long time ago
We were 25, so alive, nothing but the road on our minds
It was a rocked out, knocked out, sold out show every time - know that
We were jukebox dreaming and that life we make our stand
Burning through the night, headed for the promise land - you know where that is
Well we must've lost track of time cause we didn't know
30 came and went a long time ago
We rocked the 80's like we thought they would never end
We can still bring the house down like we did way back when
We can cuss, we can fight, we can go all night
Still tear it up even though
30 came and went a long, long time ago
We rocked the 80's like we thought they would never end
We can still bring the house down like we did way back when
We can cuss, we can fight, we can go all night
Still tear it up even though
30 came and went a long, long time ago
We can cuss, we can fight, we can go all night
With the help of pharmaceuticals
30 came and went a long, long time ago
And the 60's up ahead, yes it is...
