DEMIS ROUSSOS at FIN DE SIGLO, 26 February 1986
Demis was in the same show that received Pedro Almodóvar. During the show he sang FOREVER AND EVER, MORIR AL LADO DE MI AMOR, ISLAND OF LOVE AND GOODBYE MY LOVE GOODBYE. He was also interviewed and here a translation in English:

Pablo Lizcano: Good evening and welcome.
Demis: Good evening. How are you?
P: Why haven´t you come to Spain for so long?
D: I haven´t come here for a long time that’s why I need this to read the lyrics because I forgot them. It’s a long time that I haven’t been in many countries, not only in Spain.
P: What have you been doing?
D: I think that every artist…Do you understand my Spanish?
P: Yes, perfectly.
D: Every artist needs at a certain point of his career to think about what he can do later. Because in the 70s I created a personage with the kaftans who sang Mediterranean songs and one day I asked myself what else can I do? What can I prove? Then I retired they exchange the micros then I decided to retire. Last year I had this “adventure” in which I saw death very close. Then I understood how important life is and I decided to comeback to music.
P: You have just come from London. I suppose by airplane, aren’t you afraid of travelling by airplane?
D: Yes, I am very afraid but what can I do? It’s my life, my job. And I have to travel by airplane. Destiny is destiny.
P: What’s your opinion about hijackers? Do you think is it a just cause or there is no justification?
D: We can not talk two minutes about this subject. It is a very long subject and my Spanish is very poor to talk about it. I only know I was very afraid. And I would like not to talk more about it.
P: You slimmed down 50 kgs. You wrote a book about it. Do you think people are happier with less kgs?
D: Yes, I feel better with 50 kgs less. Now I eat half “paella”, before I ate more “paella”.
P: Is it because of health or an aesthetic matter?
D: Both. One day I decided to stop eating. The ten first days were very hard. I wanted to eat everything, even my clothes… but then you get used to it. In life you get used to everything.
P: You said that you have been retired for five years to think about the new things you could offer. You have just recorded a new disc. What is new in this new record?
D: I want to say that it is a very strange thing to me. I’m going to sing now a song that does not exist to any record. It is a very new song that I’m going to sing for the first time on this TV show. It does not exist to any record.
P: Thank you very much for being here with us tonight.
