His opinion about the rebetiko song, which he loves so much is the following ” The rebetiko song is and will be timeless. There is no way you can not find a rebetiko song that does not express you in any emotional state, even if you are. The lyrics of these songs are poetry and their music is often symphonic works. This music is in our DNA and it will never be forgotten and never heard “.
