Manos Eleftheriou
he lack of time won't win again over this magnificent song. Mikis Theodorakis -beign along with Manos Hadjidakis the most important composers of modern Greece- dresses up with music the lyrics of Manos Eleftheriou and Maria Farantouri is there to sing.
What a meeting. One time thing. For more about Mikis Theodorakis and that specific period these songs were written, there is a great article you can read here that describes some things in chronological order in a nice musical point of view.
Who, my life
music: Mikis Theodorakis
lyrics: Manos Eleftheriou
sings: Maria Farantouri
Who, my life, who is hunting it down
to single it out in the middle of the night
squealing & screaming the trucks go by
like a fish they've captured me in the net
For someone out there it's already too late
who, my life, who is hunting it down?
Who, for my life, who is in ambush for it
in this world's narrow alleys who is targeting it
where is the one who knows to speak, who knows how to believe
For someone out there it's already too late
who, my life, who is hunting it down?
Mikis Theodorakis
