Armenia: How Inga & Anush were 'high' in Amsterdam
Published 24/Apr 2009 @ 11:17 by Jarmo Siim
Digg this article If you visit the official blog of the 2009 Armenian
participants Inga and Anush on their MyEurovision profile, you can
read an interesting story about the word combination 'high' and
Amsterdam.
"No, no, that's not what you thought! We both strongly support the
healthy lifestyle, go to gym everyday and drink natural juices!" the
say in their blog at MyEurovision.
It's simply a play of words - high (pronounced as 'hai') - means
'Armenian' in their native language, apparently.
"So, we are walking in the streets of Amsterdam, enjoying one of our
greatest trips so far, and suddenly we see a guy - with a typical
Armenian appearance. Anush says: "Hay a hastat (translated as 'He is
definitely 'Armenian')!" and I'm like 'hay a!'. Imagine our faces when
the guy turns to us and says: "Girls, it's natural to be high in
Amsterdam, why are you so happy about that?" explains Inga.
They decided explanation was useless and continued their trip to a
museum.

their video below.
