LOS ANGELES, Calif. (A.W.)–Legendary Armenian singer Paul Baghdadlian
passed away on June 28 after a long illness.
Paul Baghdadlian Baghdadlian began his career in the Middle East in
the 1970â~@²s, later broadening his reach to the U.S., Europe and
beyond. He has written and produced hundreds of hit songs, mainly
love ballads that have captivated Armenians across the globe.
Baghdadlian’s Facebook page was inundated with condolences. “You will
always be around in our homes and our hearts… you’re irreplaceable!”
wrote one fan.

happiest moments was hearing that two Armenians had gotten married
after meeting at one of his concerts.
“It is with a clear conscience that I tell you now that I love and
worship Armenia, my fatherland, even more than someone who was born
and lived there,” he said on another occasion.
