"Stous 31 Dromous" (Greek: "Στους 31 Δρόμους"; English: On the 31 roads) is a song by Greek pop/rock singer Sakis Rouvas. The uptempo ballad was written by Dimitris Kontopoulos with lyrics by Viki Gerothodorou as the theme song of the Mega Channel television series of the same name as well as serving as the sole single from his live album This Is My Live. The song was released to radio stations in Greece an Cyprus on 30 September 2007, while the music video was shot in Brooklyn, New York.

"Stous 31 Dromous" contains music written by Dimitris Kontopoulos and lyrics by Viki Gerothodorou who had first collaborated with Rouvas as of To Hrono Stamatao (2003) and Iparhi Agapi Edo (2006), respectively and had jointly written Rouvas' dance hit "Ola Gyro Sou Gyrizoun. It was recorded at Vox Recording Studios. The song was released on 30 September, the same day as the series premiere, although the series was then cancelled after eleven episodes. It was featured on its soundtrack, while it also served as the only single on Rouvas' second live album This Is My Live. The album includes the original version of the song as well as a rock version as a bonus track. It is his follow-up single to his cover of "Suspicious Minds", which was part of his film and soundtrack project Alter Ego.

The song was created as the theme to the Greek-American drama series of the same name that aired on Mega Channel. According to Espresso News in a publication made in June 2007, the show's creator, Andreas Georgiou, had originally asked Rouvas to star in the highly anticipated series. Although Rouvas liked the show's concept and the producers were eager to have him feature, Rouvas eventually refused the offer as at the time he was doing work on his feature film debut Alter Ego and instead Georgiou himself took over the role. Despite this, in July the producers asked Rouvas, who was still living in and finishing business in Los Angeles, to perform the entire soundtrack. Rouvas seemingly did not accept this proposal, instead opting to perform only the title track.
