Nana Mouskouri - The White Rose of Athens

A beautiful and memorable song adapted from a folk melody by Manos Hadjidakis.
Thank you BBC for showing a night of Nana Mouskouri programmes - long overdue.

I'm running out of adjectives to describe Nana Mouskouri's magnificent voice. I would be so grateful to have seen her perform live. She is GREAT! Such passion.

[@piano4all4]

As I have said numerous times, Nana Mouskouri could sing a page out of a phone book and make it a hit. That voice is magic. Nana brings back many beautiful memories of my years with my dear husband.

If a 1000 years from now, my spirit roams on some distant plane, I'll have forgotten everything about earth and earthlings, except the precious vocal sound of this nightingale. Forever in your debt, Nana M.

[@cillaleary319]

There are many beautiful flowers and roses. Some have names. In fact, one Hollywood star is attempting to grow one and name it After herself. Every time I see a beautiful white rose, I will call it Nana. Thank you for giving us your passion, and love for music. You are the white rose of Athens. Love ya, Cilla

[@Blib9]

She always sung this song at the end of her shows at the BBC. I loved it then and I still love it. Her beautiful pure voice sounds just that, PURE.

[@stanibol]

Have listened to Nana M for well over 40 years, and saw her in concert in Brisbane Australia. In my childhood days I was consumed by her beautiful songs sung in German. Magnificent.

[@kimoakes1503]

What a wonderful gift Nana’s voice has been to the world. So blessed by her lovey singing.

[@JamesCapuano1]

I discovered Nana on KZbin recently. I miss someone who put some hearth in her singing

[@carigara50]

Was auch immer diese Frau egal in welcher Sprache gesungen hat, es war immer wunderschön anzuhören. Da stimmt jedes Detail, da ist jeder Ton genau abgestimmt, da passt einfach alles. Sie zählt zu recht zu den Besten in der Welt. Sie mit den zahlreichen sogenannten internationalen Stars vergleichen zu wollen wäre eine Herabwürdigung ihres Lebenswerkes. Sie überstrahlt sie alle.

[@ndhan72]

Perhaps the finest voice ever in popular music.

[@StarOceanSora360]

having sold 400 million records shes one of the best selling artists of all time

[@carolrumble4930]

Wow! I have to admit that much as I adore this song it's never brought me to tears until seeing this particular video😢😯😢

[@shenorhali]

I have to listen to Judith Durham, but Nana Mouskouri's voice is something to stop and listen to all the time for me. Love your song Nana dear. Thank you.

[@MelbGurl3162]

Nana Mouskouri is one of the most intelligent and adaptable singers this world has ever seen. Not again will we ever see another like this.

[@lav3110]

This is perfection. One of the greatest voices of our time.

[@bucurdragos]

Dear Nana I simply love you even when you will be 90

[@kansiharris8273]

In my teens I heard your voice on the record you brought magic through your voice and.songs. I'm 48 years old now and I still love them. God bless you.

[@rosemariesmith72]

[@cillaleary319]

Every thing about Nana is perfect. She has helped me through the worst times of my life with her beautiful voice. She puts her heart, and passion in all of her music. Thank you Nana. I wish I could have seen just one of your concerts. Love ya, Cilla

She has a nice album "Christmas with Nana Mouskouri." ONe of the songs is "Go tell it on the mountains." I heard it in the seventies and the eighties as I was growing up. My dad had bought this cassette. Nostalgia. Mambo yote.
