Career
Mikes started her music career at the late 50"s at the studio of the Magyar Rádió. Her characteristic voice and tender style made her quickly known throughout the country, along with singers like János Koós or Katalin Sárosi. Best known for her lyrical, romantic songs, she scored the first place in the very first Hungarian Top Hit Chart - published in Ifjúsági Magazin (Magazine for the Young People) in 1965 with her song Te szeress legalább.
She was also popular in other Eastern countries, such as the Soviet Union and Poland (appearing on the Sopot International Song Festival).
After the local success of beat music classical popular lost popularity, and she decided to retire. Éva Mikes died in 1986 after battling with cancer.
