Three Hundred and Eighty Third Short Respite
The lights of Staples Stadium slowly dimmed, and one day the king and the prince returned to the backstage hand in hand, giving the stage to the continuing live performance.
The prince was still full of coolness. After saying hello lightly, he left vigorously. He had no intention of exchanging greetings at all. He was like a business person who came here for a business trip. He waved his sleeves when he was done. , without taking away a single cloud.
The band members still had no time to rest and adjust. Amidst the bustling congratulations and cheers, they returned to the dressing room all the way, handed the gramophone trophy to Alice, and then quickly wiped sweat and touched up makeup. After finishing, they It is also necessary to return to the live broadcast site again.
With lingering fears due to the turmoil just now, the busy rhythm of the staff has actually improved to a higher level. After stimulating the limit, they can continue to break through the limit. It is really jaw-dropping. All the care has been completed in less than fifteen minutes. The band members can finally return to the live seats——
In fact, they were running around the whole time tonight. Except for the opening, they couldn't sit quietly and enjoy the performance. They even squeezed out the time to drink saliva in a hurry, so that they don't know about tonight's performance now. How is it, and who contributed what wonderful performance.
It wasn't until he sat down again and greeted Wesley, Jeremiah and the others that Ronan had a moment to breathe.
At this time, the most important and exciting core performance of the night is taking place on the stage.
First of all, the chairman of the Recording Academy of America, the organizer of the Grammy, and the honorary chairman of the Grammy Foundation, announced a new foundation dedicated to sponsoring young independent musicians and setting up special projects to help the community The university arranges relevant music training programs, hoping to use music to change the lives of more ordinary people.
Then there is the most important part of remembrance tonight. Sir Elton John once again led the stage, bringing a group of musicians to complete the performance. The whole performance lasted for nearly twelve minutes. People's memories of the past for beautiful music.
Finally, there was the grand finale performance, which was jointly completed by Juanes, the winner of the best Latin pop album tonight, and Frank Ocean, the talented creator representing the new generation.
Small details can feel the context and framework, and make judgments on Grammy's ideas——
First, the combination of Latin pop albums and soul R&B singers to close the show tonight, which in itself shows that the Grammys hope to stimulate the development of musical diversity, not only the strong rise of pop and electronic music, but also music needs Richer and more diverse types of styles.
Second, the opening is Taylor Swift, the leader of the new generation,
The finale was the new generation of immortal genius Frank Ocean. The two young singers set the tone of the Grammys one after the other. While remembering the legendary musicians, they still looked forward to the future and looked forward to the rapid growth of the younger generation.
As a digression, why not choose the King for a Day or Shining Band as the finale? Obviously, Frank Ocean's contacts in the industry have played a huge role. Of course, Frank is also good enough, so in the same talented situation, the contacts can break the balance.
From the Grammy's performance arrangement, a point of view can be reversed——
The one-day king's rise tonight isn't a real upset. Objectively speaking, the Black Keys and Joyful Entertainment are excellent and worthy of awards, but comparatively speaking, the younger, more unique, and sharper One Day King is more in line with the blueprint of the Grammys.
From the praise of the album "Seven" by professional music critics, to the long and arduous persistence of the king himself, to the solid stage skills and professional ability, this young band has indeed shown great potential. It completely condenses the tone of Grammy for this year and the future.
Therefore, Newcomer of the Year, Best Rock Album, Song of the Year, and Recording of the Year, the One Day King has been upset all the way, but it is not casually upset. The excellent quality of the album "Seven" and the One Day King The top strength of the stage tonight is the best pass——
The awards ceremony has come to an end, and the performance of the One Day King is still the biggest highlight of tonight! Undisputed!
So...does it mean more with Juanez and Frank Ocean as finalists at tonight's ceremony?
Like, Album of the Year?
What if, just hypothetically, One Day Kings wins Album of the Year again?

As mentioned earlier, in the 55-year history of the Grammys, the singer with the most awards in a single session is Michael Jackson, who won eight gramophone trophies in one night; while the female singer with the most awards in a single session is Bee Anse and Adele are neck and neck with six trophies; in addition, Norah Jones is the only singer who has won four comprehensive awards in a single session-but strictly speaking, the song of the year does not belong to her trophy.
The biggest difficulty in winning the four major comprehensive awards at the same Grammy is the newcomer of the year. On the one hand, it needs to be a newcomer, but on the other hand, it is required that the album of the newcomer can beat the crowd and win the other three comprehensive awards. This is almost impossible. task.
Norah Jones was infinitely close to such glory.
And tonight, unknowingly, the one-day kings are approaching such an honor. Does the decision of Juanez and Frank Ocean as the closing guests send out more signals, indicating that the one-day kings can make history? ? A further sign that the Grammys are poised to smash expectations yet again?
This is really a bold and crazy idea.
Because this year's annual album competition is the most intense in ten years.
Grammy's annual album is actually equivalent to Oscar's best picture, which is an affirmation of the overall quality of the entire production team and the entire album——
Even if "My Demons" wins Song of the Year and Record of the Year as the year's most affirmed single, that doesn't mean the quality of the album as a whole is superior, just look at the list of nominees.
The five nominees for Album of the Year are—
"Future Future" by the Black Keys, "Some Nights" by Joyful, "Babel" by Sons of Mumford, "Channel Orange" by Frank Ocean, "Seven" by Kings for a Day.
Among the three major monster lists of the year, only the Joyful Entertainment team won the nomination for the album of the year, which is the most intuitive proof.
The five albums, all of which are well-established works, have their own unique features in terms of sales popularity, professional reviews, industrial reform, etc. The degree of fierce competition easily surpasses the annual recording and annual song. The most suspenseful and important award of the night.
Could it be...Grammy is really going to gamble on the king for a day? No way?
