Giorgos Mazonakis gifted lyricist one million drachmas
Lyricist Giorgos Pavrianos shared a previously unknown anecdote regarding his collaboration with the late Greek singer Giorgos Mazonakis during a SKAI television tribute. Pavrianos recounted an evening when Mazonakis handed him an envelope in a dressing room containing one million drachmas.
Pavrianos stated that the gesture was intended to support him and express gratitude for their professional partnership. He emphasized that the value of the gift transcended the monetary amount, describing it as a manifestation of Mazonakis's love and sincerity toward those he valued.
Pavrianos, who wrote major hits for Mazonakis including ‘Paidi tis nychtas’ and ‘Alaxane ta plana mou’, also revealed that a song titled ‘Eida ton Christo fantaro’ was written for the singer but remained unrecorded due to Mazonakis's death at age 54.
