Sinentefxi (Greek: Συνέντευξη; English: Interview) is Cypriot singer Anna Vissi's 27th studio album, released in Greece and Cyprus in November 2015 by Panik Gold. It is Vissi's first studio album since 2010. The first Single is called "Gia Sena" with music and lyrics by Nikos Karvelas. The album was certified Platinum in both Greece[1] [2] and Cyprus.
The album "Sinentefxi" was released on Monday, 30 November 2015 featuring 14 new songs. All songs were composed by Nikos Karvelas, while lyrics were provided by Karvelas and Gerasimos Evangelatos (in four songs).[3]
In 2019, the album was selected for inclusion in the Panik Gold box set The Legendary Recordings 1982-2019. The release came after Panik's acquisition rights of Vissi's back catalogue from her previous record company Sony Music Greece. This box set was printed on a limited edition of 500 copies containing CD releases of all of her albums from 1982 to 2019 plus unreleased material.
The weekend before the release of the album, major radio stations in Cyprus and Greece held an "Anna Vissi Weekend" previewing exclusively the new songs. During this weekend, the uptempo track Xana Mana was confirmed as the second single off the album.
The album charted to number 1 of both Cyprus' and Greece's i-tunes charts based only on the pre-orders, and has also entered the top 100 in Spain.[4] [5] [6]

Panik became member of IFPI Greece at the beginning of 2016, and "Sinentefxi" made its debut on the charts more than a month after its release. It has eventually peaked at number 4[7]
