Armenian singer Artsvik, who represented Armenia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 with her song Fly with Me, has some news for her fans. The singer has realeased her new album, called It’s Time, which consists of English songs. She says that this CD is a very unique piece for her.

NEWS.am STYLE has talked to Artsvik to find out why the album is that important for her.

“I have been working on this CD for about 5 years. Half of my life has past during that period. My whole life is into it, all the songs have some connection with my life. The working process last very long, but it wasn’t me, but the iTunes problems. I had finished the recordings till the beginning of 2018”,-says the singer.

It’s Time is available on the internet for about 2 weeks. Artsvik says.

“I’m very proud of my CD. I want everyone to listen and see the work I have done”.

Regarding an English language album, the singer adds.

“I have always thought of having an English language album, because I like English songs very much and I’ve been performing them since my childhood, besides I really plan to have concerts and performances in Europe and USA, and hope people there would like my CD”.

It was very difficult for Artsvik to select one specific song from all the 6 singles, which she likes the most, but finally she decided on It’s Time, which is the title of the album and soon it will also have a music video with the backstage of her Eurovision experiences.

Artsvik has spent the whole summer in Moscow, because she still works on dfferent issues.

 “I’m working on my new songs and planning to release another album containing Armenian songs. I have already recorded two songs, and gradually am stepping forward. Besides I want to have other CD with Armenian folk songs. So, I will come to Armenia only in September, because at that period I will also have some performances and shootings there”.
