Chapter 1758: Chapter 1758
At this time, Hugo's brain was filled with countless thoughts, so that it became blank, and it was difficult for him to sort out his thoughts. As Pedro said, there are too many stories behind the creation of the song "Sail", not only the ups and downs experienced by the band before the creation, but also the release of "Independence Day" after the creation. A series of effects - good and bad, have been so hard for more than a year.
"I just want to say that I have never regretted walking with my friends who have died in glory. It is my honor to be able to stand side by side with them on the same stage. So, thank you for your company." Hugo said Before the words fell, and before the applause could be heard, Hugo added another sentence, "But this trophy belongs to me, and I have no intention of sharing it."
Everyone couldn't help being stunned. They were still immersed in the touch of Hugo just now, and then burst out laughing. The expressions of the little friends who were honored to death were even more indescribable, and they couldn't help laughing.
Hugo stood in front of the microphone, he hesitated because a name appeared in his mind, but he was not sure whether he should say it at this moment, but after thinking about it, Hugo still said, "This way Come on, I must also thank Cameron for your company, thank you for being able to accompany me all the way here." After finishing speaking, Hugo pursed his lips slightly, and said again, "Thank you." Then he turned and walked towards his band partners.
Hugo hopes that Cameron can understand the weight of the dream of music in his heart, and the following, running, and sprinting along the way have become an inseparable part of his life. Similarly, Cameron also accompanied him all the way here, and he hopes that Cameron can understand him, at least try to understand him. He will study hard to open his heart, study hard to let Cameron know more about himself...
Today, Hugo took a big step, but he is not sure whether Cameron can receive it.
This is the first time Hugo has thanked Cameron in public, and it is also the first time Hugo has taken the initiative to talk about his private life in public. To countless people, such a move was obviously a romantic confession, which immediately caused all the audience in the audience to start whistling and booing loudly, causing Hugo's cheeks to feel slightly hot. But as soon as he turned around, Hugo saw the other members of Glory to Death. The look of the play, even Michael was ridiculed with a face of "doing well", which made Hugo so embarrassed that he had no choice but to run away.
Tonight's awards ceremony has unknowingly come to an end. In the nomination stage, Glory to Death, who led the way with 12 nominations, has undoubtedly become the biggest winner, not only sweeping the four major awards in the rock department, but also Two of the gramophones were won among the three major comprehensive awards, pushing their momentum over the past year to the commanding heights.
Now, there is only one Grammy award left, which is also the last suspense tonight, the album of the year award.
In fact, the Best Album of the Year Award is not the most suspenseful award tonight—the Best Single of the Year Award is, but this award is undoubtedly the final award of the entire Grammy. This is a summary of the music of the past year. It is also an evaluation of the comprehensive level and overall quality of the entire album. This is equivalent to Oscar's best picture, a reward for the overall work, and a reward for the entire production team.
The test is not only the market, but also the historical background - the accumulation and thickness of the entire production team, production background, and music inheritance. Rock has won the award three times over the past decade - once last year for Alanis Morissette's "Little Pill" and twice by Bonnie Ritter and U2 before the '90s. Created, the Jazz won the championship for the second time, and Pop succeeded in having the last laugh five times.
This is the pattern of the American music market after time has accumulated, and it often indicates the future market trend. Therefore, the Best Album of the Year award will be placed at the end every year, becoming the finale of the show.
The five nominees for Album of the Year this year are Celine Dion's "Falling in Love," Refugee's "Target," Baker's "Odelay," and Mariah Carey's "Butterfly." and the "storm" that glorified unto death.
These five albums represent the pinnacle of each music style in the past year. Celine and Maria are pop representatives, Refugees are hip-hop representatives, and Baker and Glory to Death are rock representatives.
Among the five albums, "Falling in Love" is the best pop album, "Target" is the best hip-hop album, "Audrey" is the best alternative album, and "Storm" is the best rock album. Said, except for "Butterfly", are the best representatives of each department. "Butterfly" replaced the position of the best R&B album "Words", which can also be said to be undisputed-because Maria won consecutive awards for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, and Grammy It can be seen.
This is the development of the entire music market in the past five years. Pop is still dominant, and hip-hop and R&B are on the rise—but last year, R&B declined slightly, and rock came from behind to occupy the mainstream attention. Challenging but always secure.
Focusing on the special year of 1996, the confrontation between rock and pop has become the main theme throughout the year, and the status of hip-hop has been paid more and more attention—both rock and pop are trying to integrate hip-hop styles, so The five nominations for the best album of the year were born, which truly reflects the development of the entire music market.
It is worth mentioning that the album "Audrey" won Baker two awards for Best Rock Male Singer and Best Alternative Album. This album was selected as the best work of 1996 by "Rolling Stone" magazine—— It surpassed the death-glorious "Storm". Although there is "Rolling Stone" selfishness in it, "Audrey" did receive overwhelming cheers from the entire music critics - not just praise. Using portable recorders, keyboards, drum machines, and guitars, Baker created a special Nineties landscape that drew on hip-hop, folk, experimental rock, psychedelia, pop, and traditional rock, combining twisted and caustic lyrics. The result is postmodern rock that's both colorful and grungy.
Strictly speaking, Baker is also a part of the inspiration of new metal rock, but he is more grunge than Glory to Death, his style is bolder and more psychedelic, and the album is more experimental.
If it hadn't been for "Storm", "Audrey" is obviously a work that has the qualifications to be the big winner tonight, and Baker relied on this album to become a part of the rock wave that cannot be ignored. So, there's no dispute that Baker took Oasis' place for record of the year.
Grammy’s attitude can also be seen from here: Glory to Death and Baker teamed up to defeat the Oasis band. In terms of the future development trend of new metal rock, the simplicity and rudeness represented by the Oasis band has lost market recognition. History is slowly shifting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although the Best Album of the Year award is not the most suspenseful award tonight, no one can make a judgment in advance, whether it is pop regaining the throne, or whether rock continues to be strong; First record? If it's rock and roll, is it the King's Landing with glory to death, or Baker's strong counterattack? In addition, how much chance do refugees have?
This is not a battle of the century between the troika, or even a duel between Glory to Death and Maria, but it is a duel for the future direction of the entire music market, and it is exciting enough to make people suffocate. More importantly, this award is likely to make history from another angle!
Unknowingly, Glory to Death has won seven awards at this year's Grammys. The annual non-classical producer trophy received before the awards ceremony and the six trophies tonight are also It means that if "Storm" can continue tonight's strength and win the best album of the year award, then they will get eight gramophones! Tie the record set by Michael Jackson thirteen years ago - eight Grammy trophies in a single session!
In fact, if Glory to Death wins the last award, their gold content will exceed Michael, because Michael won eight individual trophies at the 26th Grammy, including the Best Album of the Year Award, the Annual Best Production Award, Best Pop Male Singer Award, Best Rock Male Singer Award, Best Rhythm and Blues Male Singer Award, Best Rhythm and Blues Song Award and other six important awards, as well as Quincy Jones (Quincy. Jones ) for Non-Classical Producer of the Year and Best Children's Recording for an audiobook with Quincy for the film "E.T."
In other words, if the Best Children's Recording Award that has nothing to do with the album is deducted, Michael actually won seven awards in a single session. Another award for Best Non-Classical Mixed Sound Recording was awarded to "Thriller" producer Bruce Swedien, not Michael himself.
Of course, Michael's record of eight phonograph trophies in a single session is still an iron fact, and it is also a record that is difficult for future generations to surpass.
Now, Glory to Death is expected to include eight trophies in the main awards department, which is undoubtedly a major historical breakthrough. Not only is it as simple as tying the record kept by Michael, but more importantly, "Storm" will receive such honor as a rock album, which is also a major breakthrough for Grammy.
Although it is said that the Best Album of the Year award is not the most suspenseful award, it is undoubtedly one of the most competitive awards, and the announcement of this award at this time will also become the biggest footnote of Grammy's status in the history of tonight . The air began to become thinner, and the heartbeat continued to accelerate and accelerate in the face of the possibility of suffocation, and the whole scene became extremely tense.
Under the eyes of everyone, the presenter of the last award tonight appeared on the stage, not one person, but two people! When seeing those two figures, all the audience stood up collectively in an instant, and the applause like a tsunami swept across, becoming the most shining moment of this wonderful night!
