Chapter 786 786 Boy Group

Although it was said that they had just experienced the episode of Nirvana, the members of Glory to Death were angry for a while, and did not take this matter too seriously: because such things are really countless in underground rock bands. .

Many people who play rock bands are flamboyant, bohemian, maybe not impulsive, but they are definitely thorns who are unwilling to compromise; what's more, many people do it because of smoking. It is easy to lose reason due to factors such as drugs and alcoholism, and it is not uncommon to directly decide the outcome by fist and foot.

Glory to Death, this group of people all grew up in the underground rock circle, and naturally they don't mind this kind of thing. The people of Nirvana don't like them, and they don't need to give Nirvana face, since they just fought. If it can't burst out, then all the energy will be accumulated on the stage.

Now the members of Glory to the Dead are gearing up, and they make up their minds to decide the outcome on the stage, not only to show Nirvana Band how powerful they are, but also to prove the strength of Glory to the Dead. .

Today's charity event, Nirvana sings the opening, and Glory to the Dead sings the finale, just won the Grammy's best newcomer Donnie Brighton sings the finale. In fact, the organizers originally wanted Nirvana Band to sing the major axis. After all, they are the most influential bands in the United States, but this request was rejected by Nirvana Band. They took the initiative to ask for the opening of the singing. Nodding in agreement, this arrangement was made.

Glory to Death stayed in the lounge for less than half an hour, and you could hear the loud roars from the outfield. Hugo thought the performance was about to start. Everyone was going out to watch the Nirvana Band performance. He didn't want Henry to hold it. Hugo said, "It's not the opening, it's the warm-up."

Hugo raised his eyebrows and looked puzzled, "Isn't this a charity event today? Why is a warm-up stage arranged?" Generally speaking, warm-up performances are more often arranged in large-scale concerts or music festivals. During the event, before the official performance begins, warm-up performances are arranged to activate the atmosphere and attract the attention of the audience. But charities obviously don't need such a warm-up.

Henry glanced lazily outside, and found that there was no scene of the playground at all, so he took his seat again, "The organizer did not expect such a scene. You know, this is an educational event. , teenagers are not the age that likes to be educated, so the organizers are worried that the atmosphere is not active enough, and hope to attract more people's attention through warm-up activities to achieve better results. But I didn't expect..."

Henry's later words are self-evident. He didn't expect that the news of Glory to Death and Nirvana on the same stage directly detonated the enthusiasm of the audience. Generally speaking, it is very rare for such a charity event to be attended by hundreds of people. Otherwise, the charity organization would not have to worry all the time and should invite celebrities to attend the event to attract attention, but today's situation obviously exceeded the expectations of the organizers.

In fact, I can't blame the organizers for their lack of preparation. Their invitation was sent out two months ago. At that time, the Grammys and Oscars were not held, and the achievements of Glory to the Dead did not reach today's standards; at that time, Nirvana was still there. On the European tour, there was no breaking news that Kurt attempted suicide again... So, today's situation is definitely beyond everyone's expectations, and even the reporters who rushed to the scene were frightened.

Hugo laughed heartily. Although he said that today's event far exceeded expectations, the scene was basically maintained in order, and the performers were not neglected. It can be seen from this that "Save Los Angeles" This charitable organization is still very capable, at least taking into account the crisis situation, and trying to control the situation as soon as possible, which is very rare.

"Who is the warm-up guest today? Underground bands?" Hugo became curious. 1993 was known as the golden age of rock and roll, and now 1994 is not too much. There have been countless bands that have emerged in the past few years, and they can be in the music world. There are many who occupy a place.

Henry shook his head and thought for a while, "It's an idol group, not very famous, and now it relies on campus tours to make a living, and is always looking for a contract with a record company." Henry doesn't know much about these things, after all, the underground music circle There are so many people there that they often disappear before they can remember their names. I usually see him being lazy outside and rarely go back to the company, so I know that he doesn't know much about this information. "What's the street called? Anyway, what's the boy's name?" Henry said casually without raising his eyelids. arrive.

"Why would an idol group like them form a group? Wouldn't it be nice to sing alone?" Alfonso asked curiously when he heard Henry's words.

Fujin glanced at Alfonso, "What else could be the reason, my own strength is not enough, pull a lot of people together, sing one sentence, learn from each other's strengths, or they will come out." Suddenly everyone realized.

Hugo's mind suddenly became clear because of Fu Jin's words, and he looked at Henry, "Is it called the Backstreet Boys?"

Henry raised his eyes, and doubts were clearly written in his eyes, "How do you know?"

Hugo laughed dumbly.

Taking the world as a unit, the real heyday of group singers was carried forward in South Korea. The singers with insufficient strength joined together to form a group, and then went on the stage to complement each other's shortcomings and attract different fans with different charms. groups to maximize their benefits. Many singers who are not strong enough to stand on the stage alone can rely on the form of combination to realize their singer dreams.

The rise of group singers was in the 1990s, and they took the lead in setting off a frenzy in continental Europe. In 1990, the English group Take. That and the Irish group Boyzone were born successively, bringing the charm of the boy group together. pushed to the top. The subsequent prosperity of the Korean group was born from the success of the British, American and other male groups in the 1990s.

Continental Europe started the peak era of boy groups successively because of the pick-up choir and boy zone in the early 1990s, the 911 band in the mid-1990s, and the Westlife in the late 1990s. However, this kind of music model has not been recognized in the United States. In the early 1990s, the American music scene scoffed at this form of music, and neither the market nor experts were optimistic about the prospect of this form.

However, the power of the pick-up choir and the boy zone began to spread to the world from Europe. Their fans have the same madness and enthusiasm as rock fans, and their performance has gradually caught up with the rock and roll that has been in the doldrums for nearly two decades. become an important force in the music market.

Under such circumstances, the American market could not hold back, so Backstreet Boys, a boy group that swept the world, was born.

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy group in the history of music. They have sold 130 million albums worldwide and two albums with sales of more than 10 million in the United States. They are currently the best-selling group albums in the world. The record holder; although they have never been recognized by the Grammys, but in addition to the Grammys, whether it is the United States or international music awards, they are soft.

The Backstreet Boys almost dominated the music market in the second half of the 1990s, and even the pick-up choirs and boyzones at their peak couldn't compare. The boy group even went on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2012!

Although it is said that in the years before and after the handover of the millennium, the birth of Super Boy (N'sync) interrupted the monopoly of the Backstreet Boys on the American music market, and the two groups are also known as fateful opponents. Even years later when Justin Timberlake, a member of Superboy, became a music giant, fans of Superboy would ridicule that the members of Backstreet Boys would be unsustainable after they disbanded, which shows the depth of the "hatred" between the two sides.

But in fact, Superboy's achievements can't be compared with Backstreet Boys at all. In terms of purely combined achievements, Superboy's greatest achievement is to appear in the right place at the right time and become the terminator of the Backstreet Boys.

In the mid-to-late 1990s, it was no exaggeration to call the Backstreet Boys a national idol. As long as any of their members appeared in public, some female fans might faint because they were too excited, and they raised their hands. The charm is enough to set off a storm after another.

It can be said that Backstreet Boys was the undisputed leader in the period when boy groups were rampant in the 1990s, and their music was even more popular all over the world. hear their music.

But it was the Backstreet Boys who created countless miracles in this way. In 1994, he was still a small role in the campus tour. In fact, strictly speaking, the rise of the Backstreet Boys must wait until the second half of 1996. Although They officially debuted in 1995, but unfortunately the American music market didn't buy it at all. They had to go on tour in continental Europe, the birthplace of the boy band. loved by the people of the hometown.

Now people's senses of men's groups can be seen from Henry, Alfonso and others. They still can't understand the meaning of the existence of this form, and they don't think that the concerts created by this combination have quality. The fact is also true, after the disbanding of the group, the only people who can create brilliance are Justin Timberlake from Superboy, Beyonce from Destiny's. Child, and Robbie William from Pick Up Chorus Williams (Robbie. Williams) too. Only the defects of their own strength must join forces to form a combination. This is the correct solution.

Although Hugo was born in rock and is keen on rock, he also loves music. He also likes pop, jazz, hip-hop, rhythm and blues and other rich and diverse music. Therefore, Hugo will not reject the music of the Backstreet Boys, not to mention their There's a lot of music that's really good, and so are Superboys, Westside Boys, and so on.

Hugo now has some expectations for the Backstreet Boys. What will the live performance of the Backstreet Boys look like at this time?
