Famagustians sing for Morfou!

Famagustian singer-songwriter Nikos Savvides and Marietta Constantinou also from Famagusta will sing for Morfou in the Cypriot Song Competition to be held in Nicosia on 10^th March 2012with the song “O! Morfou”. Writing songs and singing for our beautiful occupied towns is not new for Nikos Savvides who has written a number of songs for his hometown of Famagusta and for our occupied Kerynia. Singing for beautiful Morfou shows Nikos’s true love and passion for the whole of our occupied Cyprus and it’s a small gift to the people of Morfou.
