Emmones Idees (Greek: Έμμονες Ιδέες; English: Obsessive Ideas) is the thirteenth studio album by Greek artist, Katy Garbi. It was released on 15 October 2003 by Sony Music Greece and certified gold in a week, but after a month received platinum certification, selling over 60,000 units*. The first single "Na Pernas" and precursor to the album was released over one month prior to the release of the album, which itself was initially scheduled to be released in September, but it was delayed to October, containing many of her most successful songs like "Na Pernas", "Antres", "Esena Mono" and "Poso Tha 'Thela". "Ilios I Vrohi" is a cover of Youm Wara Youm, previously recorded and performed as a duet by Samira Said and Cheb Mami. It was available in two different versions: a standard 16-track version, and a "Limited Edition" packaged with a bonus DVD including Mia Kardia's music videos along with biography, discography and photos. Giannis Doulamis with Dewar's whiskey, a main sponsor of the album, organized a big celebration for the presentation of Katy's new gold album (were sold more than 30,000 units in the first week of release alone) as well as the multi-platinum award for her previous albums.[1][2][3][4]

* In 2003, platinum was the album whose sales exceeded 40,000 units.[5]
