## Notes

[edit]

1. ^ Her official page on Panik Records and a Greek article on Paron (news website) read that she finished 2nd. However, based on the Greek Eurovision Fanclub she ended 3rd. There has been a tie between participants possibly being responsible for this conflicting information. Nevertheless, based on footage from the competition, her official and final ranking is without debate 3rd place. (View next reference)
2. ^ 20 June 2023
3. ^ They are the one taking care of all the more relaxed or traditional Greek music that comes from Panik Records (Source: https://www.youtube.com/@PanikRecordsTube)
4. ^ 20 June 2023
5. ^ 'Sta Kokkina' was released on the 28 December 2020, but the videoclip was released early 2021
