What are the lyrics to Never on a Sunday by Connie Francis?
In Greek, phoenetically: "Oso keeyiampsaxo then vrisko allo lay manee, trellee na me he kanee, oso to piraos." Connie sang the chorus as well as some bars of the verses in Greek.

Why isn't Connie Francis in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
I’m not entirely sure, since she recorded rock and roll records. It may be a matter of critical legacy. She’s not considered a massively influential figure in the form. It’s hard to defend “Who’s Sorry Now” as a rock record, or a rock-influenced record. But there are others in the HOF that recorded songs similar to Francis’, so I’m just guessing that they don’t consider her work to be absolutely essential.
What do singers/bands in the past (eg. Connie Francis, ABBA, the Carpenters, Beach Boys etc.) have that singers/bands nowadays lack?
There were bands from the sixties and seventies like ABBA, the Bee Gees and the Carpenters who sold over 800 million records, but they were not liked by the music critics of their time. Their songs were considered too shallow and too commercial. You can say the same about the Beach Boys and about Connie Francis.What these bands and singers have in common: They stood the test of time. Their music is still beloved by millions of fans, you can hear their songs on the internet and buy their records.I guess we will have to wait another 50 years to see if any contemporary artists can match that.ABBA - Take A Chance On Me
