O! Kypros is the name of a Greek album by singer Anna Vissi released in Greece and Cyprus in 1995. The music featured is traditional Cypriot songs and is a dedication to her parents. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the album went to help impoverished children in Cyprus. It is Anna Vissi's first release since 1981's Anna Vissi not to feature Nikos Karvelas either on the composition or on the production management.[1]
The album was produced by Anna Vissi and the newspaper "O Fileleftheros", on behalf of the Cypriot Ministry of Education and Culture who co-funded the project. All proceeds would be donated to charity organizations in Cyprus.
A promotional video for "Ikosi Hronia" was released in Cyprus, to accompany the single release.
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.
