Eimai To Simera Kai Eisai To Chthes (English: I am the present, you are the past) is the name of a limited run and much valued collectible Greek album by singer Anna Vissi. The album was released in Greece and Cyprus by the short-lived record label Vissi and Nikos Karvelas formed for the release known as CarVi, whose name is a combination of their last names.

At the time, Vissi was still signed to the Greek division of the EMI-owned Columbia Records, which went against her contract releasing an album with a different label. The independent production and release was a result of unresolved differences under her then signing. A court order in favor of EMIAL - the Greek division of EMI and the parent company of the Greek division of Columbia Records - resulted in the withdrawal of the album only a few weeks after its release, making the album a collectible item. It is also the first album to be entirely written, composed and produced by Karvelas made for Vissi and kicks off a long collaboration. The album is considered by fans to be a raw and authentic composition for both Vissi and Karvelas, completely unburdened by any influence or control by a multinational record label.
