17. Greece - Aphrodisiac - Eleftheria Eleftheriou

17 - 64 pts / 4 - 116 pts in semi 1

Eleftheria Eleftheriou has the Greek national final with the song Aphrodisiac written by Dimitri Stassos (Δημήτρης Στάσσος), Mikaela Stenström and Dajana Lööf

Eleftheria Eleftheriou was already lined up for the Greek selection in 2010 but was disqualified after her song Tables Are Turning / Kentro Tou Kosmou was leaked by a Eurovision website who were allegedly not keen on her participation. The premature airing of the song was against the rules of ERT's contest.
Eleftheria Eleftheriou nor her crew were responsible for the leak but the damage was done and she was out.
In 2006 she participated in the Cyprus national final together with Maria Zorli.
Their song Play That Melody For Me ended 7th.
