Greece was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1983 with the song "Mou les" (Μου λες), composed by Antonis Plessas, with lyrics by Sofia Fildissi, and performed by Christie Stasinopoulou. The Greek participating broadcaster, Elliniki Radiofonia Tileorasi (ERT), selected its entry through a national final.

Before Eurovision

National final

Elliniki Radiofonia Tileorasi (ERT) held the national final on 18 March 1983 at its television studios in Peania, hosted by Mako Georgiadou. Originally, there were 11 songs taking part, but song 7, "Horos tis nichtas" by Petros Dourdouvakis was possibly disqualified, as it was not included in the voting results. The winning song was chosen by a 50-member jury composed of "experts" and members of the public.

At Eurovision

"Mou les" was performed tenth on the night (following Finland's "Fantasiaa" by Ami Aspelund and preceding the Netherlands' "Sing Me a Song" by Bernadette). The conductor of the Greek entry was Mimis Plessas. At the close of voting, it had received 32 points, placing 14th in a field of 20.

Greece did not enter the 1984 Contest. Thus, the song was succeeded as Greek representative at the 1985 Contest by Takis Biniaris with "Miazoume".
