Apple Music dates the single Tariner, credited to Harout Pamboukjian and Sirusho, November 6, 2014. The release brings their names together on one recording, and it remains available as a distinct single in the digital catalogue.

In a 2018 interview with The Armenian Mirror-Spectator, Sirusho recalled hearing Harout’s music at parties and gatherings while growing up. Recording the duet gave that earlier familiarity a new form: she was now singing alongside the artist whose songs had already been part of her surroundings.

The official channel also preserves a live version from the May 20, 2017 Yerevan concert. Listening to the single and watching that performance offers two ways into the collaboration. The recording’s 2014 release, the 2017 performance and the video’s later upload are separate dates in the song’s history.
