Agapi Einai Esi

"Agapi Einai Esi," Anna Vissi's 26th studio album, was released on December 17, 2010, through Sony Music Greece as a covermount with Real News. It marked her first collaboration with Nikos Karvelas in four years, who wrote and produced the entire album, including all instruments and backing vocals.

The album reflects Vissi's desire to revisit her roots with a rock-oriented sound, inspired by her early career. Its release coincided with a media strike, leading to an earlier-than-planned distribution through Real News newspapers on December 17, followed by a retail release on December 22 in Greece and Cyprus.

The album debuted at #6 on the Greek IFPI Top 75 Albums chart, rising to #3 in its third week. It achieved gold certification in its fourth week and stayed on the chart for seven consecutive weeks. Despite initial success, it faced competition from Sakis Rouvas's "Parafora" and Michalis Hatzigiannis's "To Kalitero Psema."

The singles include "Agapi Einai Esi," released October 9, 2010, with a music video by Christine Crokos; "Den Tha Iparksei Allo," which peaked at #32 in Greece and top 10 in Cyprus but had no official video; and "Ombrela," which received minimal promotion. The album's personnel featured notable producers and musicians, contributing to its rich sound.

Overall, "Agapi Einai Esi" showcased Vissi's evolution while maintaining her signature style, achieving significant chart success despite challenges.
