So that’s the instrument, wow… I’ve heard it before but I never knew it could be played this beautifully

This is Stellar. So beautiful, pure ambrosia... the silhouette against the night time city view is so perfect for this piece

WELL PLAYED.
A perfect instrument for this lament.
However ... the notes, the melody are all there, but the vocal emotions can never be.

Μπράβο Μαρία καταπληκτικό αποτέλεσμα και σε ανώτερα στο Ρεμπέτικο !

I think May's music sounds like something straight out of BioShock. Maybe SHE should compose the music for BioShock, if there were to be a new entry.
