There are a number of titles awarded, with the ultimate winner being the recipient of the Best Composiiton award, which made Rouvas the winner of the 30th annual contest with his début single composed by Nikos Terzis, with lyrics by Giorgos Pavrianos.

    George Etherege (1635–1691)

    Three times a year all your males shall appear before the LORD your God at the place that he will choose: at the festival of unleavened bread, at the festival of weeks, and at the festival of booths. They shall not appear before the LORD empty-handed; all shall give as they are able, according to the blessing of the LORD your God that he has given you.
