YEREVAN.- World famous singer Julio Iglesias has arrived in Armenia
within the framework of world concert tour.
This is his first visit Armenia, he told reporters on Saturday,
pointing at long history of friendly relations between Armenian and
Spanish nations.
`I have many Armenian friends. I have met thousands of Armenians for
the last 45 years. They are spreading your culture all over the globe.
So, my visit is not a visit of a foreigner but of a close friend. I
never sing in the place which I dislike. I was happy to come here and
will sing with pleasure,' he said during the press conference.
Asked about possible cooperation with Armenian musicians, he recalled
that had been friends with Charles Aznavour. He sang with Aznavour
dozen times and considers French singer his elder brother.
Although Iglesias did not share opinion of reporters that he is adored
by women, famous singer confessed to loving women very much.
`I think women feel when men love them.'
Julio Iglesias said he had already asked what Armenians' favorite song
is and what song he could perform during the Monday concert.
`Having experienced revival at a young age, I have become realistic. I
set a goal and go for it,' singer said, adding that he is not a
dreamer.
Sharing his first impressions on arriving in Armenia, he said that he,
and his team thought Armenians are very nice people.
`I have never been to Armenia, but I know the country, thanks to my
friends. There is a kind of melancholy in Armenians' eyes. This
reminds me of my homeland. Melancholy is a sister of vulnerability and
when a person is vulnerable, it speaks of his heroism.'
Julio Iglesias started his world tour on February 24 from Guatemala.
Then he went to Russia, and Ukraine.
