Kati Simveni
''Kati Simveni'' ( el, Κάτι Συμβαίνει; en, Something happens) is the name of a Greek album by singer Anna Vissi. The album was released in Greece and Cyprus by CBS Greece in 1985. This album includes her signature song "Dodeka". The album reached gold status. Background '' Na 'Hes Kardias moderate chart performance at the time brought sceptiscism to Vissi's label executives over Nikos Karvelas's competence to entirely produce a successful album. As a part of the production team instead, Greek composer and musician Antonis Vardis was recruited, in an attempt to diversify the sound of the new album, as to appeal to younger generations. Vardis was already known, having collaborated with top-profile artists, such as George Dalaras, Haris Alexiou, Vasilis Papakonstantinou, Dimitra Galani and Giannis Poulopoulos and also helping new artists being introduced to the audience, like Manolis Lidakis and Eleni Dimou.

Na 'hes Kardia (; ) is the sixth album by Greek singer Anna Vissi. Released in 1984, it was her first album under CBS Greece. It featured 12 laika songs, all written by then-husband Nikos Karvelas. Lyricists of the album were Karvelas, Vissi herself and Sarantis Alivizatos. The ballad "Kai Eho Tosa Na Thimame" (And I have so much to remember) is considered the most durable hit off the album, still gaining airplay in Greek radio stations and being a standard of most of Vissi's shows. The orchestra was conducted by Nikos Lavranos. In the course of years, the album reached Gold status. It was first released on CD in 1992 as a joint package with 1985's album ''Kati Simveni''.

Anna Vissi
Anna Vissi ( el, Άννα Βίσση, , ; born 20 December 1957), is a Greek Cypriot singer and songwriter. She studied music at conservatories and performed locally before moving to the professional scene in Athens, in 1973, where she signed with Minos and simultaneously collaborated with other musical artists and released promotional singles of her own while studying at the University of Athens. Vissi established herself in the recording industry by winning the Thessaloniki Song Festival in 1977 with the song "As Kanoume Apopse Mian Arhi" and releasing the eponymous debut album.

Plaka
Pláka ( el, Πλάκα) is the old historical neighborhood of Athens, clustered around the northern and eastern slopes of the Acropolis, and incorporating labyrinthine streets and neoclassical architecture. Plaka is built on top of the residential areas of the ancient town of Athens. It is known as the "Neighborhood of the Gods" due to its proximity to the Acropolis and its many archaeological sites. Name The name ''Plaka'' was not in use until after the Greek War of Independence. Instead, the Athenians of that time referred to the area by various names such as ''Alikokou'', ''Kontito'', or ''Kandili'', or by the names of the local churches. The name ''Plaka'' became commonly in use in the first years of the rule of King Otto. The origin of the name is uncertain: it has been theorized to come from Arvanite ''Pliak Athena'', meaning 'Old Athens', from Albanian ''plak'' 'old', or from the presence of a plaque (Greek: πλάκα; romanized: ''plaka'') which once marked its c ...
