Two of his songs, "Ah tzie mirizi anixi" and "Pios erotas glykos", sung by George Gabriel, lyrics by Christos Christofi, became very popular among people of all ages. Michalis is now in his final year of studies at Europa College, from where he is expected to graduate with a dual major degree in Mass Media.

He has collaborated with talented musicians and many of his lyrics have been featured on scores by popular Cypriot entertainers.

The Lyrics
Den xeris poso kegese
Amartoli psichi mou
San fevgis liono, hanome
Pos andexes zoi mou
Ipnos den lei
Apopse na me pari
Ki ego fonazo
Leo ftehti to feggari
Anisiho, pou mou eklisan i dromi
Den xero tora ti na po
Anisiho, pou mou hathikan i fili
Dio logia iha na tous po
Ma mou kopikan sta hili
San fevgis xero tha'mena
Monahos sti zoi mou
San erthis piso ginome
Anastasis giorti mou
Ipnos den lei
Apopse na me pari
Ki ego fonazo
Leo ftehti to feggari
San fevgis tora ginete
San pio mikri i zoi mou
