Earlier in the year, a representative of Armenian Television told esctoday.com that Armenia would have a national final for Eurovision 2007, with semi finals held in December – however, now over halfway through December, this seems unlikely to happen. So where does Armenia go from now?
Last year ARMtv chose Andre internally, based on his receiving several awards at the National Music Awards, the largest and most important music awards ceremony in Armenia each year. This year Andre got another award, a special award for being the first ever Armenian singer at Eurovision.
Other major award winners were Hayko, who won 'Best Singer Of The Year' (the award that led ARMtv to select Andre last year), Hasmik Karapetayan and Emmi shared the 'Best Female Singer Of The Year' award, Tigran Petrosyan won Best Album, Hayer won Best Pop Group, Empyray were the Best Rock Act, Arman Hovhannisan & Arminka won Best Duo, and Hayk won Best Song for Kamin Pchi.
If ARMtv decide to once again follow the results of the National Music Awards to select their 2007 singer, we could very well see one of the aforementioned in Helsinki!
