VIDEO: "I am releasing this video for the first time" - Ruben Mkhitaryan

Producer Ruben Mkhitaryan wrote on his Facebook page: "I am releasing this video for the first time: It has not been seen even by the participants of the video. It was the last, 5th day of filming for the 'Blind Auditions' stage of the second season of 'The Voice of Armenia' in 2013. We were all tired, and the filming was going very difficult. At that time, I was the chief producer of 'Armenia TV'. Together with the project's main director, Hratch Keshishyan, we discussed the vocal data and capabilities of the participants and confidently argued that in the 'blind auditions', much depends on what song you choose and what timbre you perform with. The project's musical producer Irina Vardanyan joined the conversation, and she didn't quite agree with us. In the presence of Hratch, we jokingly made a bet that if I go out and sing, at least half of the coaches will turn around without knowing who is singing...

Heyko my friend, you did something that made all of you turn around... You pressed Mikayel Poghosyan's button in the end... You were applauding me that day... I will always applaud you... A good boy who rejoices in everyone's successes, a lively guy, a humble guy... Take care..."
