The story of the song that Marinella performed before the collapse…
The interest – and it is logical – is focused on our beloved Marinellathis great woman of music, who has traveled her own path in Greek singing.
Unfortunately, this great artist and unique performeron the evening of Wednesday September 25, 2024, collapsed on the stage of Herodei, performing a song that will accompany us forever.
“You and I, how much should life hate us?” You leave and I leave, and where are we going? Me and you, my God, you taught us so much to love”… They were the last verses he managed to sing, before he fell before the eyes of the public.
“Me and you”, or otherwise “Words are unnecessary”is not only one of her best-known songs. It could be described as the song of her life. Synonymous with a great career, a great love, like the one she lived with Tolis Voskopoulos. It was written in 1974, composed by the late Tolis Voskopoulos and lyrics by Mimi Theopoulos.
The two great artists said it together, as a duo, making it a huge hit. In fact, “You and I” was released in November 1974, on their first wedding anniversary.
When Marinella fell in love with Tolis Voskopoulos
The love of these two great people was sealed in December 1975, in a different way. Marinella and Tolis Voskopoulos got married in the apartment that the great singer kept, on Astydamantos Street in Pagrati. At the couple’s secret wedding, there were only 6 guests, among them, the Katsaros couple who were also best men, Freddy Germanos and Marinella’s sister.
The couple stayed together for 6 years and the separation was not smooth. Marinella herself, in fact, had declared: “I only had serious relationships that lasted for years. And when Georgina was 10 years old and I was divorced from Voskopoulos – I was really confused because Tolis was not the easiest boy – I decided that men were over for me. I didn’t want to see my child sulking from some negative comment he would hear about my personal life.”
