Saturday 24th March 2012 Zorba Flashmob arranged by the Helenic and Cypriot Societies of Birmingham. Directed by Noel Mack Shot by Patrick Fleming, George Davies and Noel Mack
«Η Ρωμιοσύνη εν φυλή συνότζιαιρη του κόσμου, κανένας δεν εβρέθηκεν για να την-ι-ξηλείψη, κανένας, γιατί σιέπει την που τάψη ο Θεός μου. Η Ρωμιοσύνη εν να χαθή, όντας ο κόσμος λείψη! Αρχ. Κυπριανος
Flash mobs were such awesome feel good things until advertising companies got their hands on it! So happy one generation got to enjoy them for a short time. This is great.
I love this song, dance and lifestyle so much! The only thing that could make it better is a ridic...oh no wait, there is a ridiculously attractive girl in boots at the start.
I was just thinking along those lines. If we could get the Palestinians & Jews, the Christians & Muslims, this group & that group to just get in a looong line and do this dance, maybe people would lighten up.
You are right sir. Instead of killing each other, we should just dance according to the tune of music. Although I am a Indian, but I love this song. It motivates me & makes me more happy. I always try to learn the steps of this Zorba dance. Hats off to that GREEK composer who made this song
Πριν απο 10 λεπτά είχα θυμηθεί όλους τους λόγους που με έκαναν να φύγω και τώρα κλαίω. Δεν σημαίνει ότι όσοι φεύγουμε ξεχνάμε. Φεύγουμε για να βρούμε το δικό μας καλό και να μπορέσουμε να συμβάλλουμε στον τόπο μας είτε μένουμε εκεί είτε όχι. Κανείς δεν ξεχνάει.
Όλοι κάποια στιγμή θα γυρίσουμε οι εμείς οι τα παιδιά μας και η Ελλάδα μας θα γίνει αυτό που ήταν το διαμάντι μας....σαν την Ελλάδα μας πουθενά. Ζήτω η Ελλάς...
ΡΕ ΜΑΓΚΕΣ ΕΙΜΑΙ 15 ΧΡΟΝΩΝ ΚΑΙ ΟΠΟΤΕ ΤΟ ΒΛΕΠΩ ΑΥΤΟ ΤΟ ΒΙΝΤΕΟ ΣΠΑΡΑΖΩ ΣΤΟ ΚΛΑΜΑ .... ΝΑ ΠΕΡΝΑΤΕ ΚΑΛΑ ΡΕ ΜΑΓΚΕΣ... ΚΑΙ ΝΑ ΞΕΡΕΤΕ ΕΜΕΙΣ ΕΔΩ ΣΤΗΝ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ ΔΕΝ ΣΑΣ ΞΕΧΝΑΜΕ !!!! ΠΑΛΕΨΤΕ ΓΙΑ ΤΟ ΚΑΛΥΤΕΡΟΟΟΟΟ :'(
Zorba is one of the best musical pieces I've ever heard. It increases thr feelinf of freedom, solitude , fascination aad coordination with nature. I LOVE it .
C'est magnifique, à quand pourrons nous enfin vivre des moments comme ça, de joie de partage de gaieté ? Quand ce covid va t il partir ? Ces moments de vie de liberté sans masque paraissent si lointains...
LazioJohnny 79 We don't want your shitty euro zone and your shitty money, with this crisis you become rich FROM MY COUNTRY FUCKING IDIOT. THOSE 5 FUCKING YEARS YOU MAKE PROFIT MORE THAN 20 BILLION EURO AND YOU BLAME ME AND MY COUNTRY CAUSE OUR FUCKING POLITICIANS BETRAYED MY COUNTRY TO GAIN MORE MONEY. Next time you say or write anything FOR HELLAS (cause GREECE is an insult for us because our name is HELLAS and not Greece.) think how many people died from nazi and your stupid leaders that destroy everything, because they had psychological problems. If your want your FUCKING MONEY BACK ask samaras benizelos. I don't give a fuck if my english sucks because im a PROUD MAN FROM HELLAS.
Alexandra Konstantinidi Sorry, but i couldn't be bothered to read your whole story, i simply don't give a fuck :) Instead of spending so much time online commenting on youtube vids, you coud've used that time to actually WORK for a change & pay your debts.......or to grow some sence of humor so you can take a joke next time. And no blackhaos123 instead of what media & governments tell me, i rather be informed by Greeks who actually have the guts to admit where the true cause of this Greek tragedy lies. επιτυχία.
Love this, love the Greeks, love their history and culture. Also, love the fact that the British people (apart from a tiny ignorant minority) openly embrace other cultures.
I quite wish I had some Greek family, never will I get the chance to experience something like this, I wanna go to a Greek wedding or party or something, anyone got any contacts? 😂
Although I'm Italian, there is a lot in common between Greece and Italy, Rome would have not been possible to be built without the overwhelming influence and help from the people of Greece. Right now I'm residing int the US, 33 years and I would love to see this kind of unannounced happiness, traditions, young, old, guys, girls all together, saying I am who I am, LOVE IT! How come we don't have this kind of moments here in the states? Dancing and enjoying the moment, regardless of who's there or what they say. As someone else mentioned, dancing for traditions on public instead of bullets flying all over, instead of worrying about the last Jordan's sneaker, last PlayStation, the biggest gold chain...................this need to be shown on TV and everywhere to young people, we are all descendants of them, form of government, language, religion just to name a few, my respect to whoever initiated this moment and all the followers, beautiful, it bring tears to my eyes, OPA!!
The dance is a traditional Greek dance called the Sirtaki,not Zorba. Zorba was a character in a book who introduced this dance to non Greek audiences in the movie which bears his name.. Another example of how the influence of Hollywood perverts traditional culture.
ΣΤΕΛΙΟΣ ΦΑΚΑΛΗΣ Sadly,this video would not have gotten so many views if it had been called Birmingham's Sirtaki Flashmob. So commercial reasons are also to blame.
Thanks for giving us this information...I am ashamed to admit that having adored this melody for years and years, I never knew its actual name!!! Thank you so much :)
John Pats Ρε παιδια ακομα και δω πρεπει να τσακωνομαστε;Απολαυστε το βιντεο οπως ειναι και αφηστε τις γνωσεις και τις κοντρες εκτος...Ποτε επιτελους θα ειμαστε ενωμενοι σα λαος;Φχαριστω
As a Greek I agree with your post and thank you! And I also admire the Portuguese people for their great history and food! Everyone should be proud of their heritage. We all have something great to offer.
Así es Dámaris Mancilla ... éramos felices y no lo sabíamos .Yo soy de Chile ,tuve la fortuna de viajar a Europa cinco veces , conocí siete países incluida Grecia ,ha sido lo mejor de mi vida después de mis tres hijos y nueve nietos , ahora me siento prisionera de esta Plandemia ,sin poder viajar .En Atenas vi bailar Sirtaki en la calle creo deben haber sido cientos de personas bailando , también vi sus bailes típicos en un teatro ... bellísimo e inolvidable ,es un país increíble , sólo pido al cielo que se acabe está locura y poder viajar ,ahora iré a Rusia ,Noruega , Turquía y Alemania si Dios quiere 🙏,y otra vuelta por Grecia a conocer otras Islas .A los jóvenes les digo siempre , Viajar es lo mejor de la vida ,hazlo cuando estás joven ...el dinero se recupera ,el tiempo No ,los recuerdos son para siempre !!!(tengo 70 y empecé a viajar a los 65 años ,después de enviudar ).
I have been going to Corfu for the last 20+years and we dance this every year,I love it,the music is a different piece who is playing it please.Cheers Raymmie the Scot.
+aponcapone I appreciate your sentiment but you should be proud of your country. NOT nationalistic - proud. Every country on earth has it's own culture, history and traditions. Be proud of yours and celebrate them like we greeks do :)
In Pakistan , Province of khyber Pakhtunkhwa kalash valley. .where people called kalash people who also doing same dance like this..they also original from Greek ancient.
I love the fact that they know how to dance, how to have fun, and that they respect their culture. Personally, i love sirtaki, it is similar to our (Serbian) national dance. 😊
be proud that you ARE A SERB... you are much much much more than a lot of cultures in this world...a lot of people tried to vanish you but you have a lot of culture and identity so you can not be erased. love from Cyprus
Me encanta la música griega!! cuando estuve en Grecia quedé encantada con el pueblo griego por amabilidad, por su cultura!! muchos cariños desde Argentina. Ojalá algún día pueda regresar. AMO ESE PAIS.......
I'm trying to imagine a flashmob with italian traditional dances...probably we can't make one because we are too different from each others 😂 anyway love from Milan 🇮🇹🇬🇷
@@drunkbillygoat You literally just suck up to "Greeks" because of your significant other. You are most truly biased and unworthy to speak about the Anatoloromans/Neogreeks. I know them by heart and they are still most TRULY miserable, neurotic, high-strung and sad sad pathetic amosbas with psychological issues. You are complusively lying because you are complusive LIAR eithout dignity and an inch of truth in your mouth who sold himself.
Ein Politiker ist nicht Grichenland, die Menschen sind Griechenland, und es sind gute und liebe Menschen, vom tiefsten Herzen lieben wir euch und das lassen wir uns auch nicht nehmen, solidarität für Griechenland
Oh, the DANCING and you people .............JUST GORGEOUS, LOVE YOU EVERY ONE OF YA.......... even the previous commentators here who were not quite so appreciative as MOST OF US VIEWERS AND LISTENERS.
