Despite his ease on stage, Amir first suffered setbacks before becoming the accomplished singer that we know.
Amir knows how to show great humility and does not hesitate to recount his successes as well as his failures. The singer who made himself known via the 2014 edition of The Voice now travels throughout France and abroad to give concerts. He has become a beast of the stage and conveys strong emotions to his audience. However, everything has not always been so easy for the singer.
Guest on the set of It’s up to you, the singer revealed that he had experienced a few moments of embarrassment at the start of his career. In particular a participation in the Israeli version of the New Star, which could have marked the end of his ambitions in music. Before integrating The VoiceAmir made a name for himself in this Israeli tele-hook.
In the show of It’s up to you of April 14, Amir took advantage of the presence of Michel Fugain on the set to evoke a great moment of loneliness that he experienced during his participation in the New star Israeli.
Amir had chosen to sing Michel Fugain’s song Une belle histoire. “I did a duet at La Nouvelle Star, in Israel, but it ended badly”, he confides. Before confessing, “I had a memory lapse and I was not very experienced at the time?”

This memory seems to remain vivid in Amir’s memory. In front of his memory lapse, he panics, impossible to find his passage. “I sat down on the floor, breaking down in tears. They got me off the show right away”remembers Amir who started a late career in song.
Intrigued, Michel Fugain asked Amir if he had “sung the song in Hebrew?” To which Amir explains that he “sings half French half Hebrew”, which implies a double difficulty of memory. Faced with the impossibility of singing as planned, Amir left the stage and will not have the opportunity to return.
“I was convinced that I was going to be given a second chance but it didn’t happen”, he says on the set. At that time Amir strongly doubted his abilities to become a singer and considered giving up.
Philosopher, Amir finally considers “somewhere, this episode of my career, this descent gave me a desire for revenge to come back later, stronger, more experienced.” Indeed, from now on, he is no longer afraid of living this kind of situation and if he were to forget the words of his song again, he will undoubtedly know how to react better.
