Superstar

After entering the 1990s, the development trajectory of rock and roll has brought too many surprises. The rock and roll that has affected the entire two generations once again radiated vigorous vitality, and this situation reached its peak in 1996.

Among them, the representative Glory To Death and Oasis bands brought out the duel of the century because of the duel between the two. This is not only a confrontation between rock bands, but also a confrontation between rock and pop and rhythm and blues. What's even more incredible is that rock and roll had the last laugh and changed the entire North American music market.

Now, the confrontation between Glory To Death and Oasis continues on the Grammy stage. This is not a sales confrontation, a popularity confrontation, or a word-of-mouth confrontation, but the recognition of music and the market by top people. It has nothing to do with other music genres. It determines the future development direction of rock and roll, and it is also the judgment and evaluation of senior professionals on the quality of music.

Once upon a time, British rock forces represented by the Beatles, Rolling Stones, u2, Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd have spread all over the world and have had an unparalleled influence on the American music market. Now the Oasis has once again acted as The representative of British rock has opened the prelude to the impact of British music power on the world.

The American rock forces represented by Guns and Roses, Air Blacksmiths, and Nirvana have opened up a piece of sky that belongs to them and made the rock map complete, but their influence on the British Isles is ultimately limited. Now, glory to death has once again started the rock frenzy, making the United States the birthplace of the rock renaissance.

Now, Glory To Death and Oasis have gone through the battle of the century, passed through the ultimate showdown, and have come to the Grammy stage. The final life and death confrontation will be launched on this world stage. This will undoubtedly be the global music of the past six months. The highest point of the noisy market will also be the final battle!

The audience held their breath, Hugo also locked his eyes on the stage, but he leaned slightly to the right and talked to Neil in a low voice, "Well, if you really can't get a trophy, What's your mood?" Neil's whispered teasing made Hugo chuckle. "What did Peppa say?" Obviously Neil and Pedro had just talked about this topic, and now Neil took it over and asked him.

Neil remembered the answer and wanted to laugh, but he tried very hard to hold back the laughter. "He said he was lying in front of the Staples Stadium."

"Hey," Hugo almost didn't hold back, and the laughter overflowed directly from his mouth. Fortunately, it was quickly controlled. "I hope this scene will happen." Not so much Pedro. Confident, it is better to say that the mentality is relaxed at this time. After missing two awards, the band members still did not care too much. It is not easy to be able to maintain this calmness and glory to death.

While talking, Paul McCartney stepped onto the stage, Hugo and Neal exchanged glances, stopped talking, and straightened their spine. Everyone expected that Paul would appear in the guest lineup of the rock department, but they did not expect that he would be the first to appear. Originally thought that he would be the first to award the best rock song award, but unexpectedly Paul said, "Best Rock Song" The band is awarded by me. I think it’s very meaningful. It’s hard to imagine that I will be able to see the grand occasion of 1977 again in my lifetime."

The first award is the best rock band, the most competitive band award, and it is also awarded by Paul. Leaving aside the supreme aura of "The Beatles", people can't help but start to speculate, could it be said that this award will belong to the Oasis Band? Passed on from the pioneers of British rock to the younger generations; or is it passed on to the successors by the navigator who led the rock to the pinnacle of history?

In an instant, the boring audience boiled up for the majority of the time, one by one straightened up, raised their spirits, and cast their sights on the stage, looking forward to the announcement of the award.

This is indeed a memorable year. None of the five finalists for the best rock band are unmatched, garbage band (garbage), broken pumpkin band, dave.mattews.band (dave.mattews.band), and Oasis. , Glory to death, every name is a pivotal existence today.

Ba Sheng Weige (.), the leader of the garbage band, is known as the "father of garbage rock." The album is a pivotal figure in the rock industry. He personally formed a trash band. The first album of the same name won unanimous praise from the media.

David Matthews is a powerful band that has risen strongly in recent years. The second album released last year was highly acclaimed. More importantly, they, like Glory to Death, are a rock band that has come out step by step from the tour. , Has been sought after by professional music fans on both sides of the strait.

As for the other three bands, there is no need to repeat them. They are the representatives of the new metal rock. Whether it is commercial achievement or word-of-mouth popularity, they are the pillars of the current North American market.

For true professional music fans, these five candidates are difficult to choose. The victory of any band represents the defeat of the other four bands. What's more, the Wallflower Band (the.), Alice Prisoner, Sound Garden, Stone Temple Guide, Violent Resistance Machine Band, Cohen Band, Undoubtedly Band, and many other strong players were not able to make the finals, and their exits made the finalists even more clear. The five bands on the nomination list are outstanding.

Undoubtedly, this is the second major explosion of American rock and roll in a short period of time since 1993. One masterpiece one after another, the entire market bursts with unprecedented energy. And the finalists on the waiting list are the strong among the strong-even if they are the only one in the world in terms of sales, but in the eyes of loyal and diehard rock fans, this is an inability to make a choice. Perhaps one thousand fans will have one thousand answers.

Now, the Grammy puts the award at the top of the rock department, and it is still awarded by Paul, which is self-evident.

Paul looked at the five candidates on the big screen—all arrived at the scene tonight, with a gratified smile on his face, “Personally, this is a very special year, not only because we also “I have released an album again.” The Beatles released “Selected Collection 3” this year, and the sales are still Changhong. “Because this is the year of rock and roll, I have disputed with John whether the rock’s 70s is gone. No more. Now I know John was right."

The entire Staples Stadium was silent. No one expected that Paul would mention John Lennon at this time. Although these two former friends moved away because of Yoko Ono, no one could deny that these two partners He is one of the most outstanding creators in the history of music.

Seeing the look of remembrance on Paul's face, everyone was in awe. Perhaps, there are no musicians who are not affected by the Beatles’ music. For most people, Paul is a legend of music, a living history, and that kind of reverence is difficult to express accurately in words.

"So, for me now, it is my honor to be able to stand here and hold the envelope in my hand." Paul waved the red envelope in his hand and chuckled, "I'm going to take a look at you first. Click on the answer, then sell it, and feel the surging of standing at a historical moment. You know, I never knew when this moment will come before."

Paul is a pun. On the one hand, he is saying that the Beatles once made history, but he is in it, but he does not know it at all, because history is proved by time; on the other hand, he is talking about him at this time. It is no longer the creator of history, but the witness of history.

Such humor made everyone on the scene burst into laughter. Hugo was also unable to suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth, and slapped his hands to applaud Paul's humor.

It's just that not everyone can enjoy this tension at this time. The members of the Oasis band were so nervous that they almost stopped breathing. Noel was a little better, but Liam was tensed up, clenching his teeth, and his cheeks were red, as if it was possible at any time. Exploding balloon. The tension on the face is enough to make people stop breathing.

Paul opened the envelope in his hand, looked down, then raised his eyebrows, and sighed, "Aha!" This sigh seemed meaningful, but no one knew what it meant. The heart was raised high. Hanging, suspended in mid-air, unable to continue to rise but can't touch the ground. Paul raised his head with a big smile, "I already know the answer, but I said, I want to enjoy this moment."

Half of the people on the scene let out disappointed and annoyed sounds~www.readwn.com~ The other half laughed haha, which made the entire Staples Field come alive, and it was full of vitality as if it was the award ceremony at this time. The real beginning.

Paul shrugged, "Although I really want to turn around and leave with this envelope and come back after the advertisement, I have seen the director's terrible expression. I think the moment that belongs to me is over." This time, Everyone in the room burst into laughter, and applause broke out again. Paul raised the envelope in his hand and waved it lightly, "Then, I will announce the answer."

Paul looked at the card in his hand again, "The 39th Grammy Awards, the winner of the best rock band..." After Paul finished speaking, he looked back at the big screen, as if he wanted to go from the big screen. The five candidates on the screen found the correct answer, and then he bent over to face the microphone with a smile on his mouth, "The only one: glory to death!"

"Boom", the screams, cheers, and roars of the audience suddenly burst out like fireworks, and they gathered into a piece, allowing the emotions of the whole night to find a catharsis. In an instant, everyone in the audience stood up. Get up, this is only the second standing applause of the audience tonight, dedicated to the glory of winning the first phonograph trophy tonight.

As Paul said: The only... glorious to death!
