Eleftheria is no stranger to a Eurodance guest feature, so she probably felt right at home collaborating with Mindtrap on their new single ‘Eternally’. And while she may be comfortable with this, sadly we are not. This latest effort is a poor relation to last summer’s storming ‘Raindrops’.
It starts confidently enough and the beats thump at just the right velocity. But it becomes a bit boring after the second verse. The decision to opt for the “summertime hits” refrain is just repetitive and a little strange. She may not be a powerhouse vocalist, but Eleftheria could have thrown something out there to keep this more entertaining. It’s a shame: The song kind of withers away and dies.
It’s a real shame considering the fun and frivolity of ‘Aphrodisiac’ and the success of ‘Raindrops’.
Let’s hope she puts a few more head-shakes into her next single…
‘Eternally’ lyrics
(Verse 1)
Summertime came just to spice up our days,
To put a smile on your beautiful face.
I’ve been betrayed in a million ways,
But now it’s time to forget and erase!
Dance with me, don’t look back,
Just let go, you’ve guessed right,
I am into you, feel the rhythm from head to to toe,
Release me now, touch my body and soul.
Chorus (x2):
Summertime hits, you and me on the beach,
Leaving our traces on the sand eternally.
Your pretty face and the taste of your lips,
Your soft fingertips,
Summer melody sounds heavenly.
(Verse 2)
When I’m with you it is like heaven is near,
Safe in your arms I can forget any fear,
Your tender voice is all I’m craving to hear,
Keep whispering lusty words in my ear.
They say that love isn’t easy at all,
Comes with summer, goes with falls,
Ours will last, we will prove them all wrong,
Just hold my hand as you’re singing along.
(Chorus x2)
Summertime hits, you and me on the beach,
Leaving our traces on the sand eternally.
Your pretty face and the taste of your lips,
Your soft fingertips,
Summer melody sounds heavenly.

“Mindtrap” is a new group and “eternally” is just their second single.Eleftheria and Mindtrap don’t belong to same company and that s why she doesn’t sing it at her lives and she didn’t promote it.This time she prepares her album with Claydee Lupa(producer of “teliosame”,”gia sena”) and she will may realese it before Christmas.
Hello from Greece!
Yeah Eternally is pretty boring, but if you want true Eleftheria flavour you can always go for Gia Sena which is obviously top tier even without the thirteen trillion hot guys in the video clip.
