Using the simple rule that if a note is sung by the vocal it is removed from the chord ie not played.
For example at the lyric Να περπατάμε at τα the note is A, the bass bD, the bass code is D7 and the key is F minor. So the chord is bD F A C but A is not played on the piano as it already exists in the vocal. Instead the C is doubled or it is bD bass and C F C(oct).
Listening, singing while playing on the piano with Vicky, it was agreed it sounds better as it leaves a frequency space for the voice to exist more comfortably.
A similar example of this practice is:
Prelude 20 op.28 - Chopin, at chorus
(The bass note at any time is not repeated on the right hand).
Other example with vocals is Say Something - Gteat Big World, Anguilera
