 Happy to be Demis Roussos
Demis Roussos, the 350 pound Greek crooner is best known in America through his association with Vangelis ("Theme from Chariots of Fire").
Although the band was finished, Vangelis and Demis Roussos reunited for the 1970 recording "Sex Power", and continued to be frequent musical collaborators throughout the next 30 years, including the 1977 "Magic" LP and a guest appearance by Demis Roussus on the "Blade Runner" soundtrack.
Demis began his own solo career with the single "We Shall Dance." Initially sales were slow, but when Demis embarked on a tour of Southern Europe the song quickly became a #1 hit.

And so, it was that in 1968, whilst en route to London, Demis was forced to remain in Paris by the tumultuous turn of events which swept through the city in May of that year.
Demis has blended the musicial influences, both Folk and Religious, recalled from a childhood spent by the shores of the Mediterranean and expresses them in musical consonances which combine the traditional-oriental with the western-pop.
Demis is indeed an exceptional human-being and yet his only ambition is to offer to his fellows a moment of relaxation and the joy of sharing the music which he loves.

 "ELSEWHERE": Demis Roussos
Artemios (Demis) Ventouris Roussos was born in Alexandria, Egypt on June 15, 1946.
Although the English press at the time praised Demis for "singing his way to freedom" (the hijackers actually celebrated his birthday with him and let him free because he was indeed Demis), it was quite apparent that the incident had left Demis shaken and a new lease on life was forged.
The instrumentation was appropriately electronic with Demis, having lost much of his once hearty 300 pound girth, singing with a range that one would suspect to have gone away with the rigors of live performance over a 25-plus year career.
