Giorgos Alkaios (Greek: Γιώργος Αλκαίος; born 24 December 1971) is a Greek recording artist. His career began in 1989 after appearing on a Greek reality show. Following a brief period of stage acting, Alkaios dedicated himself to music. His first single, "Ti Ti", made him popular in Greece. His distinctive musical style fuses Greek and Oriental elements with modern pop music. To date he has been certified with 5 platinum and 9 gold albums. Alkaios represented Greece in the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 with the song "OPA".
Giorgos Alkaios was born in Athens, Greece to Greek and Portuguese parents. He is the son of Yiannis Vasileiou, a successful Greek elafro-laiko singer. His mother, Maria (Rodrigues) Griggs lives in Pembroke, Maine after moving from the Boston Area. Immediately after his birth, Alkaios moved to Boston, Massachusetts, United States where he lived for three years. Shortly after his parents divorced, he moved back to Greece with his father at age three. Raised primarily by his grandmother Anna, he lived in Halandri and spent his summers in Salamina with friends and relatives during his childhood. He got his first job at the age of twelve.
The Eurovision Song Contest (French: Concours Eurovision de la chanson), often shortened to ESC or Eurovision, is the longest-running annual TV song competition, held, primarily, among the member countries of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) since 1956. The competition was based upon the existing Sanremo Music Festival held in Italy.
Each participating country submits an original song to be performed on live television and radio and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. The contest has been broadcast every year for sixty years, since its inauguration in 1956, and is one of the longest-running television programmes in the world. It is also one of the most watched non-sporting events in the world, with audience figures having been quoted in recent years as anything between 100 million and 600 million internationally. Eurovision has also been broadcast outside Europe to several countries that do not compete, such as the USA and China. An exception was made in 2015, when Australia was allowed to compete as a guest entrant as part of the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the event. In November 2015, the EBU announced that Australia would return in 2016. Since 2000, the contest has also been broadcast over the Internet, via the Eurovision website.

Ho passato tutta la mia adolescenza ubriaco,
mi sono svegliato un mattino non so dove,
ho preso il primo autobus e sono andato a lavorare.
A Lavorare.

2010, anno di cambiamento uo-o-o.
I nuovi mezzi di comunicazione ci hanno reso
impotenti ed impauriti di fronte ai sentimenti umani.
Non è forse così?
