 | Kelly Clarkson - Piece by Piece
This is certainly not her best album, but Kelly still managed to deliver us a solid record. I bought the deluxe edition.
Favorite: Dance with Me
Least favorite: Run Run Run |
 | Madonna - Rebel Heart
I spent €34.99 on the super deluxe edition, which was worth it for "Graffiti Heart". I can't say it's Madonna's best album (none of the songs is a 10/10), but "Ghosttown" deserved to be a smash hit. Thank goodness, I live in Italy, and it was huge here.
Favorite: Holy Water
Least favorite: Wash All Over Me |
 | Ariana Grande - My Everything
I already owned the standard edition (the only edition released in Italy prior to the Italian Edition), but when I went to Greece I found the deluxe, so I snatched it. The March albums from now on were bought in Greece as well.
Favorite: Problem
Least favorite: Best Mistake |
 | Fifth Harmony - Reflection
One of the best albums of 2015. A solid record with so many wasted hits. Pure slayage from beginning to end. I bought the deluxe edition. For some odd reason, the album hadn't been released in Italy at the time I bought it in Greece.
Favorite: Going Nowhere
Least favorite: Like Mariah |
 | Kylie Minogue - X
For some reason, it's pretty impossible to find Kylie's pre-Aphrodite albums here in Italy. Thank goodness for Greece, again!
Favorite: 2 Hearts

 | Maria-Elena Kyriakou - Dyo aggeli sti gi
The winner of The Voice of Greece 2014 and the Greek representant at the Eurovision Song Contest 2015 (even though she's Cypriot) managed to put out an outstandingly beautiful cover album with four unreleased tracks. Her voice is amazing.
Favorite: Dyo aggeli sti gi

 | Helena Paparizou - Protereotita
The first of the many Helena Paparizou albums I bought. This one is her debut, from 2004. A solid pop album with a lot of Greek folk influences.
Favorite: M' agkaliazi to skotadi
Least favorite: Matia ke hili |
 | Helena Paparizou - Protereotita: Euro Edition
It's basically a double CD featuring Protereotita as well as an 11-track album featuring new songs (including her 2005 Eurovision winner, "My Number One"), and the English versions of some of her songs.
Favorite: My Number One
Least favorite: Let's Get Wild |
 | Helena Paparizou - Yparhi logos
Similar to Protereotita, but more pop-oriented. It's my favorite Helena album.
Favorite: Asteria
Least favorite: Meres eones |
 | Helena Paparizou - Fos
It's a 5-track EP sold both with the Yparhi logos re-release and individually. I bought it individually of course, having already bought Yparhi logos.
Favorite: Fos

 | Helena Paparizou - Vrisko to logo na zo
This is the album thanks to which I discovered Helena back in 2009. It's completely different from her earlier work, as it's very rock and electro influenced. I would definitely recommend giving it a listen!
Favorite: Kita mprosta
Least favorite: Ise i foni |
 | Helena Paparizou - Gyro apo t' oneiro
Still rock influenced, but not as dark as Vrisko to logo na zo. The folk music occasionally comes back on some tracks, like my fave "Thalassa", which was my jam back in 2010.
Favorite: Thalassa
Least favorite: Siga, psithyrista |
 | Helena Paparizou - Ti ora tha vgoume?
Helena goes more pop for her 2013 album, which marked her comeback after her greatest hits album in 2012. I personally think this is her weakest record.
Favorite: Epitelous moni
Least favorite: De thelo allon iroa |
 | Helena Paparizou - One Life
With "Survivor" she tried to represent Sweden at the Eurovision in 2014, but I must say the song they actually sent was better. Still, an English language album full of huge bops.
Favorite: Survivor
Least favorite: Enough |
 | Shawn Mendes - Handwritten
I've been supporting the heterosexual icon Shawn Mendes before he blew up worldwide. His debut album is great, and I love how he managed to estabilish himself avoiding the Bieber comparisons, because he's a completely different type of artist.
Favorite: Strings
