About Opa Opa

"Opa Opa" is a song by Greek singer Notis Sfakianakis, released as a single from his second album Ise Ena Pistoli in 1992. Opa Opa is a laïko dance song and was written and produced by singer Giorgos Alkaios years earlier, and is one of Sfakianakis' most notable of his early works and the most notable version of the song domestically. The song has been covered by a number of artists, taking it to further success abroad. In 1999, Swedish-Greek duo Antique covered it as their debut single with Eurodance elements, reaching the top ten across Scandinavia. Despina Vandi's English-language cover, however, achieved the most success abroad, reaching the top 20 of several markets in Europe and North America. more »
