Mouskouri on farewell tour to say thank you
DEAN LISK
Cher liked it so much, she keeps doing it and doing it.
But, Nana Mouskouri - that other singer with the raven hair parted down the centre - says this concert tour is her last one.
"I am not going to do that," Mouskouri said. "I am going to be stubborn about it and say No. This is a way to say thank you, because one day I won't be able to say that."
The Greek-born chanteuse pays her final musical respects to Halifax on Friday with a performance at the Metro Centre. It is part of a farewell world tour Mouskouri has been undertaking to officially say goodbye to her fans before retreating behind the scenes.
"I can sing well still, but I have started thinking, 'How long can it last?'" she asks on the phone from her home in Geneva. "I am afraid that a point will come where I won't be able to sing. And, I wouldn't want to do that. I think the audiences deserve respect. It's time for me to let the younger people go further."
Mouskouri's career started in the 1950s in her native Greece. She studied voice at the Hellenic Conservatory in Athens, winning numerous music prizes, which helped launch her career. She's recorded more than 1,500 songs in a dozen languages in various styles, and sold more than 300 million records.
In a fitting conclusion, Mouskouri's final emotion-filled goodbye concert will take place in Athens next spring.
"I started to sing very early in life, and this year I just completed five decades," the 71-year-old said. "I love music. But, time has gone by, and my children now are the same age when I was already very popular."
The singer, known for wearing trademark dark-rimmed glasses, says Canada has always been one of her favourite places to perform. At one point, her manager was Canadian, and he had her touring like a Canuck. Every 18 months, she would tour either Eastern or Western Canada.
"I travelled Canada in a way very few artists did," she said "So, I had this impression I was living in Canada, and it was wonderful."
While many of her audience members are fans who have been there for all of her career, she has also seen younger people coming out to say their farewells. Mouskouri said her younger fans usually tell her how their parents would listen to her.
"It brings satisfaction to me that the music brought pleasure to the people who heard me, and even their children remembered," she said. "This is my reward."

Ending on a high noteREVIEW: Nana Mouskouri
By ANN MARIE MCQUEEN
The National Arts Centre hosted some major old school entertainment last night, as enduring Greek songstress Nana Mouskouri captivated a devoted, nearly full house of fans.
Mouskouri, who arrived in Ottawa Saturday and must surely have wondered at a normally staid city engulfed in hockey madness, has made the capital one of only two Canadians stops on her sweeping world farewell tour.
A four-year farewell tour, actually, for the 73-year-old, known for her powerful pipes and ever-present dark-rimmed glasses, begun back in 2004 and set to wrap up next year.
The two-and-a-half hour show began with a video montage showing Mouskouri morph from bright-eyed, slim-waisted ingenue back in the 1960s to the well seasoned, sequined caftan-wearing performer of today.
HISTORIC SPOTS
There were shots of her on tour with Harry Belafonte and massive concerts of her own later on at some of Athens' most historic spots; even footage of her brief stint in the European Parliament. With more than four decades of material, thousands of songs in a variety of languages, and hundreds of millions of records sold, Mouskouri's career is a marvel by any standards.
She stepped on stage clad in white, launching right into I'll Remember You. A stirring rendition of Love Changes Everything set the tone for the evening.
"Singing has been very important for me," she told the crowd. "I believe most of you must know I started singing very young, because my parents used to say it was the only thing I could do. I could sing and I could cry."
In between old favourites, Mouskouri talked about her upbringing, introducing a string of songs in French her mother, also a chanteuse, taught her as a young girl.
A jet-setting philanthropist years before Angelina Jolie made it fashionable, Mouskouri spoke of her work with UNICEF -- which she will do again today when she addresses the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa at the Ottawa Congress Centre -- and her hopes for the children under the program's care.
Time will tell if Mouskouri sweeps back through town a few years down the road -- when it comes to aging musicians, farewell doesn't always mean goodbye -- but her intention is to bow out gracefully, and that she did last night.
Though I am not a fan of Mouskouri's tendency to hit sharp, startling high notes or indulge in excessive vibrato (and her cover of Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now left much to be desired) her crowd was clearly enthralled with her.
