The music video was directed by Alexandros Grammatopoulos and was filmed on April 8, 2008. In it, Elena appeared with her new style for the first time. The shooting took place in Athens and lasted 48 hours.[6]

On April 14, 2008, MAD TV revealed the concept of the music video. Specifically MAD TV reported, " The new video of Elena Paparizou will be fairly ambient and rock having a central role in that play the elements of rain and the wind. It also contains several symbolic scenes such as feathers that appear suddenly in a telephone box, something similar to those elements that big stars use in their music videos, such as Madonna's music video "Frozen".[7]

It made its television premiere on MAD TV's Mixer Greeks Only at 12:00 am on April 15, 2008.[8] On 16 April the video was played all day, every hour on the hour. On April 19 the "Porta Gia Ton Ourano" music video debuted at number one on MAD TV Top 50 countdown.
