''Apagorevmeno'' (Greek: ''Απαγορευμένο''; English: ''Forbidden'') is Greek singer Anna Vissi's 25th studio album, released in Greece and Cyprus on December 9, 2008 by Sony BMG Greece. It is Vissi's first studio album since 2005 and the first since her 1981 self-titled album to not include any songs or input by Nikos Karvelas. The album was mostly produced with the Maple Jam Music Group in Los Angeles, United States, and by its head producer Greg Ladanyi. The album was reissued with three new songs and two remixes as ''Apagorevmeno+'' on November 16, 2009. ==Background== Vissi had been working on the album for two years. In an interview with ''Down Town Magazine'' in July 2008, Vissi said that she felt the same way as she did at the start of her career by having already listened to over 600 songs in the studio in an attempt to find songs she liked. She also stated that this would be the first album of which Nikos Karvelas would not be contributing any songs to, expressing that the two have gotten tired of each other, but clarified that this does not rule out a collaboration in the future. On October 30, 2008, Vissi gave an interview on MAD TV's ''OK'' with Themis Georgandas. She added that ten of the tracks were arranged in Los Angeles, while she had a hand in the production of all tracks.〔Georgandidis, Themis. "Interview with Anna Vissi". ''MAD TV'' 's ''OK'' (2008-10-30). Retrieved on 2008-10-31.〕 By the end of November, the name ''Apagorevmeno'' (Forbidden) had been selected and it was announced that the album would be released on December 9, 2008. The final version contains 15 tracks in total, with the single "To Parelthon Mou" and the cover "Kontra" being included as bonus tracks. Photographs that Dave Stewart took of Vissi on a beach in Malibu, California where also supposed to be included in the CD booklet but seem to be left out, presumably to be instead included on her never materialised 2010 English language album.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Apagorevmeno」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
