    Helena doesn't rule out a Eurovision comeback

    Talking on the popular TV show "Kalo Mesimeraki" two days after her winning 2005 entry "My number one" triumphed in the Eurovision Again online voting, Helena left a window open for a ESC comeback. Precisely she stated: 

    If I had the right song, I would be participating again. As it happened back in 2005 with My Number One. I remember myself home, sitting at the family table and half of my people were saying not to go to Eurovision, as I was at the beginning of my solo career. I hit my hands on the table and I said “I’m already there, I’m going!”. I didn’t know, of course with which song. Mentally I was ready to take part in the contest.
