Klavdia:

Klavdia Papadopoulou, a Greek singer who rose to fame after participating in the Greek version of The Voice in 2018, is one of tonight’s most compelling contenders. Her mentor during the competition was none other than Eurovision winner Helena Paparizou, who guided her all the way to the finals.

For “Ethnikos Telikos 2025,” Klavdia collaborated with Arcade, a team of renowned music creators and producers who also wrote her entry “Asteromata.” The song blends modern elements with traditional Greek music, creating an emotional and captivating piece. With its melancholic tone, “Asteromata” draws inspiration from Klavdia’s family’s survival story during the Pontic Greek genocide—a deeply personal narrative that adds significant weight to her performance.

Asteromáta“:

Asteromáta” deals with a deep sense of longing and pain over separation and loss, using romantic and poetic language. The singer addresses a beloved figure she calls “little star” and “star eyes,” expressing her desire to be close to them, feel their presence, and find rest and calm. Imagery such as “My dear mother, don’t cry” and “My old body, the flames will not defeat it” convey resilience in the face of hardships, while maintaining a deep connection to nature and the past, mentioned through “the sand of my roots” and yearnings for a return to home or a safe place.

Lyrics of “Asteromáta”:

Astéri mou
Astéri mou

Glikiá mou mána min mou klais
Mávra kai an sou forúne
To kséthoro to sóma mou
Flóges den to nikúne

Ta chelidónia tis fotiás
Thálasses kai an pernúne
Tou rizomú ta chómata
Poté den lismonúne

Asteromáta mou mikrí
Gýre na se filíso
Sta ágia sou ta dákria
Ta cheíli mou na svíso

Asteromáta mou mikrí
Gýre mou na se piáso
Ta ksechasména mou fterá
Sterná na ksapostáso

Ach astéri mou, tzivaéri mou

Glikiá mou mána min mou klais
Karávi eínai i zoí mou
Pou psáchnei gia ton girismó
Agéra to paní mou

Asteromáta mou mikrí
Gýre mou na se piáso
Ta ksechasména mou fterá
Sterná na ksapostáso

Ach astéri mou, tzivaéri mou
Ach astéri mou, tzivаéri mou

Aѕtéri mou
