Chapter 1758： Finale

Hugo's brain was full of countless thoughts at this time, so that it became a blank, it was difficult for him to sort out his thoughts. As Pedro said, there are too many stories behind the creation of the song "Navigation (, 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 along with my glorious partners. It is my honor to stand side by side on the same stage with them. So, thank you for your company." Hugo's The voice hadn't finished, and there was no time for the applause on the scene. Hugo then added another sentence, "But this trophy belongs to me, and I don't intend to share it."

Everyone couldn't help but was stunned, just immersed in the touch of Hugo, and then burst into laughter. The expressions of the glorious friends are even more difficult to express, and they themselves can'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, I must also thank Cameron for his company. Thank you for being here with me.” After speaking, Hugo pursed his lips slightly, and said again, “Thank you.” Then he turned and walked to his band. Friends.

Hugo hopes that Cameron can understand the weight of the dream of music in his heart. Following, running, and sprinting in this way has become an inseparable part of his life. Similarly, Cameron accompanied him all the way here. He hoped that Cameron would 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 thanked Cameron in public, and it was also the first time Hugo took the initiative to talk about his private life in public. Such a move was obviously a romantic confession for countless people. This immediately caused all the audience to whistles and roared noisily, causing Hugo's cheeks to be slightly hot. But as soon as he turned around, Hugo saw the tune of the other members of Glory To Death. The look of the play, even Michael was ridiculed with a "good performance", which made Hugo embarrassed and could only run away.

Tonight’s awards ceremony unknowingly came to an end. The glory that led the nomination stage with twelve nominations has undoubtedly become the biggest winner. Not only has it swept the four major awards in the rock department, but it is also currently announced. Two phonographs were won in the three comprehensive awards, pushing their momentum to the commanding heights in the past year.

Now, there is only one Grammy award left, and the last suspense tonight, the best 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 for the entire Grammys. This is a summary of the music of the past year. It is also an evaluation of the overall level and overall quality of the entire album. This is equivalent to an Oscar's best film, which is a commendation for the overall work and a commendation for the entire production team.

The test is not only the market, but also the historical heritage-the accumulation and thickness of the entire production team, production heritage, and musical heritage. During the past ten years, rock and roll has won the award three times-one of them was last year's "Small Pill" by Alanis Morissette, and the other two were by Bonnie Ritter and u2 before the 1990s. For creation, the Jazz won the first prize twice, and Pop had succeeded in making the last laugh five times.

This is the pattern of the American music market after time has accumulated, and it will often herald the future market trend. Therefore, every year's album of the year award will be put at the end, becoming the final show of the audience.

The five nominees for this year’s Best Album of the Year are Celine Dion’s "Fall in Love", Refugee’s "Target", Baker’s "odelay", and Mariah Carey’s "Butterfly." And the "storm and rain" of glory to death.

These five albums represent the peak of each music style in the past year. Celine and Maria are the representatives of popular, refugees are the representatives of hip-hop, and Baker and Glory to Death are the representatives of rock and roll.

Among these five albums, "Fall in Love" is the best pop album, "Target" is the best hip-hop album, "Audrey" is the best alternative album, and "Bust and Rain" is the best rock album. Said that, in addition to "butterfly", are the best representatives of all departments. The position replaced by "Butterfly" is the position of the best R&B album "Speech", which can also be said to be uncontroversial-because Maria has successively won Best Pop Female Singer, Best R&B Female Singer, and Grammy Awards It can be seen.

This is the development context of the entire music market in the past five years. Popularity is still dominating, hip-hop and R&B have risen strongly-but last year’s R&B was slightly declining. Rock and roll came from behind to dominate the mainstream sight, and the country is experiencing it every year. Challenge but the position has always been solid.

Concentrated in 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 is getting more and more attention-both rock and pop are trying to integrate hip-hop styles, so Five nominations for the best album of the year were born, which truly reflects the development context of the entire music market.

It is worth mentioning that the album "Audrey" won Baker two awards for best male rock singer and best alternative album. This album was selected as the best work of 1996 by "Rolling Stone" magazine. Beyond the glorious "hurricanes and rains", although there is a "rolling stone" selfishness in this, "Audrey" has indeed won the cheers of the entire music critics-not just praise. Baker used portable tape recorders, keyboards, drum machines and guitars to create a special and beautiful landscape in the 1990s. He absorbed the advantages of hip-hop, folk, experimental rock, psychedelic, pop and traditional rock, combined with distorted and mean lyrics. It merges into a post-modern rock that is both colorful and dirty.

Strictly speaking, Baker is also a part of the new metal rock appeal, but he is more inclined to grunge rock than Glory To Death, his style is bolder and more psychedelic, and the album is more experimental.

If it weren't for the "hurt and rain", "Audrey" is obviously a work that has the qualifications to be the big winner tonight, and Baker has relied on this album to become a member of the rock wave that cannot be ignored. Therefore, Baker replaced the position of Oasis and occupied a place in the album of the year, which is not controversial.

From here you can also see Grammy’s attitude: Glory to Death and Baker teamed up to defeat the Oasis Band. In the future development trend of new metal rock, the simple and crude represented by Oasis 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 judge in advance whether it is popular to regain the throne or rock to continue to be strong; if it is popular, then it is Maria who has set new heights, or Celine. First scoring? If it's rock and roll, is it the king of glory to death, or Baker's strong counterattack? In addition, how much chance do refugees have?

This is not a battle of the troika of the century, or even a duel between Glory to Death and Maria, but it is a duel for the future of the entire music market, and it is breathtaking enough to suffocate. More importantly, this award is likely to make history from another angle!

Unknowingly, the number of awards won to the death of this Grammy has reached seven, the annual non-classical producer trophy received before the award ceremony, and the six trophies tonight. It means that if "Blurry Rain" can continue tonight's strength and win the Best Album of the Year award, then they will get eight phonographs! Tie the record set by Michael Jackson thirteen years ago-a single Grammy with eight trophies!

In fact, if glory to death wins the last award, their gold content will surpass Michael, because the eight personal trophies that Michael won at the 26th Grammy include the best album of the year award and the annual award. Six important awards including Best Production Award, Best Male Pop Singer Award, Best Male Rock and Roll Singer Award, Best R&B Male Singer Award, Best R&B Song Award, and collaboration with Quincy Jones (.) The non-classical producer of the year won, and the audiobook produced by Quincy for the movie "e.t alien" won the best children's recording award.

In other words If you deduct the best children's recording award that has nothing to do with the album, in fact, the number of Michael's single awards is seven. There is also an award for best non-classical mixing recording, which is awarded to Bruce Sweeten (.), the producer of "Thriller," instead of Michael himself.

Of course, Michael's record of a single eight-seat phonograph trophy is still an iron fact, and it is also a record that will be difficult for future generations to surpass.

Now, glory to death but hopeful to include eight trophies in the main awards department, this is undoubtedly a major historical breakthrough. It's not just as simple as tying the record held by Michael, but more importantly, "Blurry Rain" will receive such an honor as a rock album. This is also a breakthrough for Grammys.

Although the best album of the year award is not the biggest award in suspense, it is undoubtedly one of the most competitive awards. At this time, the announcement of this award will also become the biggest footnote to the Grammy's position in history tonight. . The air began to become thinner, and the heartbeat continued to accelerate and accelerate again in front of the possibility of suffocation, and the entire scene became very tight.

Under the attention of everyone, the guest of the last award tonight appeared on the stage, not one person, but two people! When seeing the two figures, all the audience stood up in an instant, and the applause swept through the mountains, which became the most shining moment of this wonderful night!
