Just for the record, modern Greek music has stolen from both Arabian and Indian music for many decades now (yes, they were importing and listening and then copying songs straight from India and Arabia without to bother about royalties and the like) but this is still one of the many styles of modern "Greek" music. Greece has many different music styles, differing substantially from region to region, with the Epirotans having Celtic-like music and the Aegeans having their own distinct style, and of course we have exchanges of music for millenia (a lot of that Arabic style music was produced independently from Greek composers in Turkey during the Ottoman times, hence the association with Turkey) and it is a never ending cycle...
