Background, Release and Present
After the success coming from her 1979 album Kitrino Galazio, Vissi remained on pop tunes with this album. "Methismeni Politia" was the theme song for a popular drama series during the 1980-1981 TV season on ERT, months before the release of the album and the song subsequently became the first single. The next singles "Oso Eho Foni" and "To Ksero Tha Ertheis Ksana" (a cover of "Woman In Love") were also popular, with "Oso Eho Foni" becoming one of her most enduring classics.
Like Kitrino Galazio, Nai was released on CD in 1987 and was shipped to stores throughout the years as the album continued to sell.
"Oso Eho Foni" alongside "Aftos Pou Perimeno" from Kitrino Galazio were remixed and released on the maxi single The Remixes, in 1997 with much success.
In 2006, prompted by Vissi's entry in Eurovision Song Contest 2006, EMI released a remastered edition of the album adding the 1980 entry in Eurovision Song Contest "Autostop" and two remixes of "Oso Eho Foni".
All songs from the album were included in 2007 Anna Vissi box set Back to Time (Complete EMI Years) which charted on the Greek Albums Chart.

“The shallow consider liberty a release from all law, from every constraint. The wise man sees in it, on the contrary, the potent Law of Laws.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“In any weather, at any hour of the day or night, I have been anxious to improve the nick of time, and notch it on my stick too; to stand on the meeting of two eternities, the past and the future, which is precisely the present moment; to toe that line.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
