Singles and legacy
"Pseftika"
- The album's first single "Pseftika" was among the first hit songs in Greece mixing Western dance vibes with Eastern sounds from India, Turkey and Greece. Nightclubs heavily played the modern Greek song, which until then nightclubs distinguished from their bouzoukia counterparts generally played only foreign music. It was so different from what Vissi had sung that she did not want to initially record the song, but ironically it turned out to be one of her biggest hits. Thus, "Pseftika" is noted as revolutionary to modern Greek song.[2][3]
"Fotia"
- The 2nd single which had a rock sound followed the success of Pseftika.
"Mpalomataki"
- The 3rd single, the music video for the single was filmed in Morocco for a TV-special aired by Mega Channel in early 1990.
"Oue Ki Alimono"
- The 4th single climbed on the Top 10 of Greek and Cypriot Charts.
"Kapnizo"
- The 5th single also climbed on the Top 10 of Greek and Cypriot Charts.
