The duel between Oasis Band and Glory to Death quickly heated up, and the record companies of the two bands responded immediately—of course, not in response to the battle post, but in actual actions to express their support for this duel. support.
EMI Records was the first to announce that the first single of the third album of To the Dead of Glory will be officially released on September 23, opening the prelude to the promotion of the third album of To the Dead of Glory. This news caused an uproar in an instant, not only because the fourth week of September was the critical moment when the "Independence Day" box office hit 500 million, but it was also a full 25 years after the release of "Bath in the Morning Light" on August 25, 1994. After a month, Glory to Death finally released a new album again!
All eyes were focused in an instant, and the level of expectation for the new album of Glory to Death reached its peak directly.
Immediately afterwards, Creation. Records, the record company of Oasis Band, subsequently announced that the first single of Oasis Band's third album will be officially released on September 23, which will also be the third year of Oasis Band's three-year release. The third album of the album, it has been less than a year since the second album was released in October last year, and the new album is coming again. It is so productive and efficient that it is amazing.
The Gallagher brothers' remarks about Hugo Jiang Lang's talents were once again heated up. Compared to the more than two years spent in preparation for their third album, Oasis took less than a year to do it. Well, ready to set off again, the winner will be decided. In this regard, Noel said sarcastically, "I said long ago that he should stay in the circus."
The duel between the two top rock bands is undoubtedly the biggest attraction in the near future. Almost everyone is starting to get excited, not only because they are curious about the result of the duel, but also look forward to the huge influence this duel will have. , will have an effect on the entire historical process - just like the "Independence Day" that was born out of nowhere.
But just when all eyes were on Oasis and Glory to Death, Soren Columbia Records quietly announced that the first single from Mariah Carey's new album will also be released on September 23rd!
The news from Sony Columbia Records was silent and without any deliberate publicity, which was completely inconsistent with Maria's usual high-profile style. But soon, the "New York Times" discovered the news, and it broke out for the first time, which immediately caused a media storm. Effect.
Although it is said that in the past few months, the battle between Oasis Band and Glory to Death has been very eye-catching, but no one will forget the long-lasting grievance between Glory to Death and Maria, although there is no hatred between them, but a Henry -Bloom is enough to complicate everything. What's more, the duel between Maria and Glory to Death was completely suppressed last year. It was not until the "Sweet Day" broke the record for 16 consecutive championships at the beginning of this year that he regained his confidence and reached the peak of his career with this single.
So this year, when Oasis provoked Glory to the death, media reporters interviewed Maria unwillingly for the first time, and it really got an explosive effect that far exceeded expectations. Although Maria kept her mouth shut since then, and Hugo shined all summer with "Independence Day", everyone knows that Maria, who loves to hold grudges, is bound to have a fight with glory to the death.
It can be said that there are many bad debts to be settled between Maria and Glory to Death.
Now, everyone thought that the showdown between Glory to the Dead and Oasis would be the biggest attraction in the music market this year, but with the addition of Maria, the whole battle became unpredictable.
First, the pop and rhythm and blues styles represented by Maria have always been the mainstream in the American market, and their momentum has not been affected in any way. Once Maria joins the war, it will actually have an impact on both Glory to Death and Oasis. Being able to be less influenced is also one of the points of the showdown between the two rock bands.
Furthermore, Maria, as the top pop diva in the United States today, was helped by her album "Daydream" last year, and her shaking force in the music market is absolutely qualified to form an iron triangle with Glory to Death and Oasis. Although Maria and Oasis are said to deal with glory to death, they are not allies, but rivals to each other.
Therefore, no one can predict the final outcome.
This is a result that all the media did not expect. Maria has kept her mouth tightly closed for the past few months. Although the Oasis band has provoked the glory to death many times since then, almost every time someone will throw the question to Maria, but she never made any positive comments.
Just when people had forgotten the other arch-enemy of Glory to Death, Maria quietly came to slam the head and messed up the battle. This hand of Sony Columbia Records is really beautiful, without spending any publicity expenses, it directly makes Maria's new single's expectations immediately break the table.
Of course, this requires taking huge risks, because neither Oasis nor Glory to Death are easy opponents to deal with - no one will forget the dark history of "Fantasy" being killed by "Apologize" last year. , A careless, wishful thinking will not only fail, but it will also be very likely to steal the chicken without losing the rice, making Maria's new album a complete failure.
In the market, a truly wise businessman will avoid strong opponents and seek a win-win situation, rather than a bloody impulse that leads to both losses. For example, in the summer season, if "Mission Impossible" and "Tornado" are released in the same week, it is very likely that they will end up together, but after staggering the schedule, a win-win situation has been achieved. The same is true in the music market.
However, the cunning Sony Columbia Records chose to join the showdown with great fanfare. Not only did they have enough confidence in Maria, but they could also see that they had a chance to win the new album-they didn't even take the initiative to release the news. , but let the media reporter discover this fact by themselves, and finally break the news to maximize the effect of the chemical reaction.
Seeing Sony Columbia Records making such a sure-footed move, the media reporters couldn't help but murmured in their hearts: Could it be that Maria's new album is of excellent quality this time, so they have such strong self-confidence that they can stand out in this competition?
If there is one side in this triangular confrontation - either side can win, then the topic effect is completely unimaginable at that time, and it is very likely to create an album that writes history, just like "Independence Day"; on the contrary, once If you lose the duel, you are likely to face a fiasco.
High investment, high risk, high reward, high loss. That's the truth.
In less than twenty-four hours, the music market was in the spotlight. Pop vs. Rock, Britpop vs. New Metal, Pop Diva vs. Rock Band... These three are in pairs, and they are each other's opponents, but secretly, Maria and Oasis band together to fight for glory to death, Such an intricate duel is definitely a big show of the year!
From the resurgence of rock and roll in 1993 to the explosion of movies in 1994, the American entertainment industry experienced a small slump in 1995, but after entering 1996, it was full of good shows.
First, "Independence Day" created a midsummer dynasty in a state of sweeping thousands of troops, bringing the entire film industry a good opportunity for change; now following the turmoil in the film industry, the music industry has also ushered in a rare heavyweight head-on collision, and the competition pattern No matter which side is the overlord, it's like the Titanic hitting an iceberg. Such a confrontation of the century is no less spectacular than the powerful momentum of "Independence Day", which instantly makes people focus on the summer heat that has just dissipated. Above the line of sight shifted to the music market.
"Oasis Band VS Glory to Death VS Mariah Carey", there is still more than a week left until September 23rd, but the entire North America has shifted some of their attention to the "Independence Day" while paying attention to the "Independence Day". In the inferior music market, compared to the "Independence Day" where gods block gods and Buddhas block and kill Buddhas, the three-legged confrontation in the music market is full of countless suspense, and the final result is even more unpredictable. "The grandeur and spectacle.
Such a scene is undoubtedly the happiest for the audience. No matter who the final winner is, they are the beneficiaries. They can not only appreciate many excellent works, but also witness the birth of history with their own eyes, and even use their own Making history with both hands, this sense of reality of participation makes everyone's blood boil.
In the midst of all the attention, Hugo did not have much time and space to pay attention to these topical effects, and he had to devote all his energy to the production of the album. After the album was finished, Hugo didn't have any time to rest, and he came to the "Titanic" crew in San Diego non-stop to fulfill his original promise - a cameo role.
"Titanic" started filming as early as June, and the crew has been busy for nearly four months. However, because Hugo was too busy during this time, he didn't have time to complete his cameo mission, so this piece The matter can only be delayed again and again, until after the production of the third album of Glory to Death is completed and before the official release of the first wave of singles, Hugo will have time to go to the crew by taking advantage of this short period of time.
Although Hugo's cameo appearance on the "Titanic" was a secret itinerary, the pervasive paparazzi knew the news as soon as possible-they believed that Hugo had come to visit the class specially. The quiet suburbs ten miles away were buzzing. Not only reporters, but also crazy movie fans, arrived again as scheduled.
When Hugo arrived at the scene, the exaggerated scene of the surging crowd at the door, as always, brought the Hugo effect after "Independence Day" to the extreme. Looking at the scene in front of him, Hugo could only let out a long sigh and had no other choice.
