Victor Vernicos might be young (the youngest artist to represent Greece at the Eurovision Song Contest in fact) but he’s got big dreams!
The singer comes from a very musical family, with a Greek mother who plays the piano and a Danish father, who plays the trumpet, and Victor himself is proud of both his Greek and Scandinavian heritage.
Though a talented pianist and guitarist, Victor’s ‘pièce de résistance’ are his exceptional cinnamon rolls, a bake he feels he’s perfected.
Yummy treats aside, the young musician’s style has been influenced by the likes of Ed Sheeran, John Mayer, and Coldplay.
Lyrics to What They Say
Late August
Feet start to shake heart starts to ache
Can’t focus
Panic I lay on the floor and I hate
That I’m holding on
My lungs’ll break can’t stop to make
My mind up
Time starts to rain clouds not afraid
Of the pain they’re giving
Anxious the way I’m breathing
Can’t say that I am longing for
Another day to break my spirit
Insane and I can tell who’s winning
Wish this was something I could just ignore
Well you know what they say
Lost souls make sure no one loses their way
Hurt ones can’t stand seeing others in pain
Oh I am both now I got too much on my plate
And I save all the others cause for me it’s too
Nostalgic mind,
I miss the days when my heart wouldn’t ache and
I’m drowning, time
Quicksand of life, we don’t live to die
Now I’m tryna, fight
All of the lights that leave me so blind
As a writer
But I’m not an actor no I don’t live my own
Life and I hate my feelings,
I’m overwhelmed and heated,
Can’t say that I am longing for,
Another day to break my spirit,
Insane and I can tell who’s winning,
Wish this was something I could just ignore,
Well you know what they say
Lost souls make sure no one loses their way
Hurt ones can’t stand seeing others in pain
Oh I am both now I got too much on my plate
And I save all the others cause for me it’s too
(Oh Yeahh)
Well you know what they say
Lost souls make sure no one loses their way
Hurt ones can’t stand seeing others in pain
Oh I am both now I got too much on my plate
And I save all the others cause for me it’s too late
