Qele Qele

Very soon, during the Eurovision competition, most of you will hear Sirusho sing one of the better songs I have heard coming out of Armenia. The song in called Kel kele... or Qule quele (in Hayastan). It is a dance song with rhythmic and Armenian folk nuances. Lyrics are in English.

This song was written and arranged by none other but, Harout DerHovakimian (Repat from Toronto). I know that he has worked hard to get the song all the way here and it must have taken a lot of convincing since he is not necessarily "in" the H1 crowd. What I mean is that there are several individuals who have a strong hold on what and who should appear on H1 (Hratch Keshishyan, Hayko, etc).

Once again, BRAVO to DerHova for providing such great work!

This will be the third year that Armenia is participating in Eurovision. in 2006 Andre was the representative of Armenia and Hayko wasteh rep for 2007. I think Sirusho is by far the best candidate for this show.
