Chapter 1741： Certification authority

Los Angeles became lively again, not only because of the arrival of the annual Grammy, it also means that the terrifying battle of the century in 1996 will be authorized on the official stage; at the same time, it will be driven from Europe because of glory to death. After coming back, he will appear on the Grammy stage and continue the momentum of the ultimate showdown.

Not long ago, the 39th Grammy announced this year's nomination list, among which the most notable ones are undoubtedly the troika of Glory to Death, Mariah Carey and the Oasis Band.

Throughout the ages, Grammys, like Oscars, have many top masters who have never been recognized by a phonograph, such as the Queen, such as the West Side Boys, such as the Backstreet Boys, such as Zeppelin, such as fifty cents, such as the Gate Band...but It is undeniable that Grammy, as the most commercial and topical top professional awards ceremony in the world, its authority, professionalism, and importance are one of the few.

Grammy's recognition also means the general trend of the entire market and professional opinions. As expected, the Troika teamed up to win 25 nominations, almost a sweeping trend, becoming the most shining existence on the nomination list. The competition between the Audio-Technica has continued from the sales market to the word-of-mouth market, and now continues to the professional market. This also makes the competition of this Grammy full of countless highlights-aside from market feedback, who can do it this time? Last laugh?

Judging from the nomination list, Glory to Death has once again continued its strength!

The acclaimed album "Breaking Rain" was undoubtedly included in the rock department to participate in the competition, but the two singles "Slowly Falling (. and "Say Something (say. It is divided into the popular department, and "waiting for the world to change (.on.the...change is considered to be the rhythm and blues.

"Blurry Rain" received three nominations in the four comprehensive awards, including album of the year, single of the year, and production of the year, all of which were not missed. In addition, five nominations were received in the rock department, respectively. It is the best rock band, the best hard rock performance, the best rock song and the best rock album-among which the best rock song received double nominations, and "Young Volcano (. and "Navigation ( joined hands in the last Top five.

In the rock department, which is the essence of glory to death, they can be said to be majestic and majestic. They have almost won nominations for every project that can participate in the competition. Further expansion.

In addition, "Say Something" was nominated for the best pop band group-and the Beatles who won the nomination by "free as a bird (free.as.a. competed in this award. This is really a dumbfounding situation. Two rock bands that occupy important positions in the music history have been shortlisted for pop nomination. Of course, Pumpkin Broken has also been shortlisted for the best pop chorus, so it’s not huge. Accident.

"Waiting for this world to change" ranked among the top five for best rhythm and blues songs, plus the nomination for best feature-length music video for the concert version music video of "Voyage", and Hugo's non-classical of the year Producer. This brings the glorious Grammy nomination to twelve items in one go!

twelve! There are twelve nominations, including not only three of the four most important comprehensive awards, but also across the three departments of rock, pop, and rhythm and blues. The most commendable is that for the first time in history, Hugo Personal status is shortlisted for the nomination of the non-classical producer of the year, which is undoubtedly the most important affirmation of the Grammy's glory to death.

As a singer and a producer, Hugo has injected unimaginable vitality into glory to death. His talent and wisdom have been recognized by the world, and he won the Grammy of the Year for two consecutive years. The production award has proved the strength of Hugo. This time, Grammy is one step closer.

The Non-Classical Producer of the Year Award is an award that is not awarded at the awards ceremony. The winners are announced every year before the Grammys-after all, there are more than 100 Grammy awards, and it is impossible to announce all of them at the party. But this award is just like its name. It is an award for all non-classical album producers. There is no specific song or album. It is a separate recognition for the behind-the-scenes music producers who have performed well in the past year. Contributions and talents behind the industry. This is the most important recognition for any music producer.

This is the first time that Hugo has been shortlisted for the award, competing with the nation's top music producers-which is absolutely unimaginable for Hugo who is not a major. What’s even more incredible is that among the winners announced at the Grammy’s warm-up party, the best feature-length music video belongs to the Beatles, which is so glorious and regrettable that it was defeated; and the non-classical producer of the year was awarded To Hugo-he defeated the baby face who had previously completed two consecutive championships!

The awards ceremony has not yet begun, the glory to death has made a good start, and Hugo is now among the top music producers in the United States, not to mention the band leading the nomination list with twelve nominations.

From the "almost fame" refusal to cooperate, to the "morning light" entanglement, the entanglement between glory to death and the Grammys along the way, but the Grammys are retreating steadily, even the Grammys can't stop the wheel of history The pace of advancement, so there is a "storm and rain" sweeping the army.

Ironically, "Rolling Stone" even called "Grammy's darling" to the death of glory-you know, even a year ago, the two authoritative representatives of Grammy and "Rolling Stone" had attitudes toward the death of glory. It is always warm. Ambiguous.

In addition to the glory to death, the two competitors Maria and Oasis are not inferior, showing strong competitiveness, making the nomination list colorful!

Maria's "Butterfly" album was nominated for two comprehensive awards for Best Album of the Year and Best Single of the Year. In addition, she won two important nominations for Best Pop Female Singer and Best Pop Album in the pop department, as well as rhythm. Two major nominations for Best R&B Female Artist and Best R&B Song in the Blues Department, plus the Best Short Music Video Award, she received a total of seven nominations.

The seven nominations also created Maria's best performance in the Grammys, following the glory to death in the nomination stage, once again allowing Maria to take an important step in her journey beyond Whitney Houston.

However, the advantage for Maria is that due to the difference in music genres, she does not need to face the Glory to Death and Oasis bands. Compared to the battle of the century, she needs to pay more attention to the strength of the Grammys. Donnie Breston. Therefore, the victory of the Grammys also adds more suspense.

It is worth mentioning that although Whitney did not release a new album, but relying on the original soundtrack of the movie "Wake Up until I Wake", "Exhausted" was nominated for the best production and best rhythm and blues single of the year. In addition, there are A nomination for best pop chorus. Even if there is no new album released, Whitney is still the true darling of Grammys, which put Maria under tremendous pressure.

Compared to Maria, the Oasis is a full-scale showdown with Glory To Death!

Although the bad professional reviews of the album "Stay Now" did not affect sales, the Grammy still feels the tilt between art and business.

Among the four comprehensive awards, the Oasis band only relied on "Do you know what I mean?" to obtain a nomination for the best single of the year, and the momentum is far behind the two competitors. However, in the rock department, there were four nominations for Best Rock Album, Best Rock Single, Best Rock Band, Best Hard Rock Performance, plus the Best Alternative Music Album Award, and they finally won six Nominate.

This is the best performance by a singer from the European continent in Grammys since u2, especially the Oasis band on behalf of British rock in the United States. This is even more commendable-u2 is an Irish band in the final analysis. This is undoubtedly a stimulant for the long-dead British music industry, and the entire British Isles began to cheer.

Although the professional reputation of the "Stay Now" album cannot compete with the two competitors, at least six nominations acknowledge the commercial achievements of Oasis in the United States. As for the final trend of the awards, before the award ceremony is announced, everything is possible The Oasis Band will be among the five nominations in addition to the Best Alternative Music Album Award. Die into an all-out duel. This is not a battle of sales-a win-win situation without losers is impossible. In the end, there is only one winner, and only one.

Everyone knows that this Grammy is perhaps the only one in history, not only because it has just experienced the brilliance and grandeur of 1996, but also because the average strength of the nominated works is amazing. Twenty years later, when people look back on the music classics of the 1990s, they all think that 1996 is equivalent to the film’s 1994. The collection of masterpieces in this year makes it a very special year in history, and all One cannot go around the important year when talking about music history.

"Forrest Gump" became the last king in 1994, so who will witness to the top of the throne in the music market in 1996? Will the troika write history hand in hand, or will Donnie Breston, Whitney Houston, and the original soundtrack of "Different Instincts" and Cher Crow stand up to spoil the situation? The choice of history may be right, wrong, or controversial, but in the end it will leave the mark of the wheel of history, which will be recorded in the annals of history.

The awards ceremony has not even started, it is already full of hustle and bustle, and now it is boiling because of the glory to the death arriving in Los Angeles!
