Superstar

On April 2, the charity event organized by "Save Los Angeles" at Venice High School caused a huge sensation, not because of the enthusiasm of the 5,000 audience, but because of the two most topical bands today-Nirvana And glory to death appeared on the same stage for the first time.

This performance has attracted countless attention. Many professional music magazines believe that Niji’s performance demonstrated their absolute strength at their peak, sweeping away the decadence of the European tour in the past few months. Te-Cobain once again showed his enviable amazing talent, especially the song "Youth Heart", which set off a hot frenzy.

At the same time, these magazines also expressed admiration for the strength of the glory to the death scene. Although before that, the glory to the death has relied on the road tour and the Junjie music festival to prove itself, but this time the glory to the death has shown The new look not only did not lose the slightest in the frontal comparison with the Nirvana band, but also ignited the most popular phenomenon at the event: five thousand people sang in unison "Don't be annoyed by the past (, t...in) Anger)” scene was sealed as a classic.

At this time, many professional music critics once again complained about these two bands. "Youth Heart" was ignored by Grammys, so that the Nirvana Band has never received the corresponding recognition; now "Li( and "Don't be annoyed by the past" these two songs were also ignored by the Grammys. The cold reception of glory to death at the Grammys is a huge irony.

In particular, Glory To Death and Donnie Breston appeared on the stage one after another. As a result, Tangnie, who had won a great victory at the Grammys, was coldly treated. There were even audiences who left the stage early, and the Glory ignored by the Grammys. Death detonated the scene and injected the spirit of rock and roll into every soul.

This kind of irony was like a loud slap in the face, and it slammed into Grammy's face.

On Monday, April 4th, EMI released the second single of the album "Almost Fame", "Don’t be upset by the past", and announced that the glory to death will begin in mid-May. The second tour will be held. This time the tour will be different from last year's road tour, but a regular ticketing tour. At that time, Glory to Death will continue to release the tracks of the second album during the tour.

In an instant, glory to death became the most concerned existence in the entire rock circle.

But this situation did not last long. On April 10, Kurt's body was found in his home. He pointed a pistol at his temple, committed suicide, and left a suicide note. Just like the shooting of John Lennon that shocked the world, the death of Kurt-Cobain set off a stormy sea all over the world.

Before crossing, Hugo remembered that Kurt was discovered on April 8th, three days after his death, that is to say, Kurt committed suicide on April 5. Therefore, when Hugo did not hear about Kurt's death on April 8, he thought that history had changed. But soon, Hugo discovered that his thoughts were only extravagant hopes. After all, history was still rolling forward along the original trajectory, and he was still just an insignificant little butterfly, whose effects were always limited.

After all, Kurt passed away in the same way. Although it was delayed for two days, his dilapidated soul was fed up with the suffering of this world after all. He chose to escape, leaving the heartbreak and memory that shocked the world.

The Nirvana, this rock band that swept across the sky like a shooting star, left a strong mark in the history of music. With the passing of Kurt, it also ended its short but gorgeous life, but left it behind. The music literature that has lasted forever will let future generations admire.

Kurt's suicide only left a shock. When people came back to their senses, they realized that the performance at the Venice High School was Kurt’s swan song. At this time, when you look back at the Nirvana Band’s performance that day, the vigorous feeling of burning vitality becomes more apparent. At the same time, it's also embarrassing that it was actually the only time Glory To Death and Nirvana have been on the same stage.

It really feels like fate is at stake. One is a peerless band that was born with grunge rock in 1991, and the other is a stunning newcomer band that set off a rock revolution in 1993. Although it is currently the glory of death and Nirvana The historical status of the band is on the same level, it is too early, but no one can deny the impact of glory to death on the entire music scene.

Under such circumstances, Glory to the death to perform on the same stage as the Nirvana band, but never let go, it becomes more and more valuable, and the song "Don't be upset by the past" is even more so tragic that a strong man broke his wrist. This is the best footnote for this stage swan song.

The audience who had the honor to watch this stage at Venice High School on April 2nd was so lucky. They were not only fortunate to witness the last performance of the Nirvana Band, but also witnessed a unique glorious death and Nirvana in history. The nest band is on the same stage.

Twenty years later, when people mention this stage again, they will sigh and call it the "four-two stage", because this performance is not only a stage, but also a handover of history. In the long history of rock music, this stage has also become a landmark event, staying on the title page of history forever.

Under such influence and stimulation, the two songs "Youth Heart" and "Don't Be Annoyed by the Past" have received a lot of attention, and these two songs have also become the most commemorative labels on the 42nd stage.

When "Don't Be Annoyed by the Past" was released, the single "Li" was still very good on the bulletin board, staying in the top five, and the sales of the album "Almost Fame" were also particularly gratifying. And it has repeatedly created miracles, setting off waves again and again. No one can say clearly whether all of this is a matter of course, or is it because the death of Kurt-Cobain awakened people's enthusiasm for rock and roll, or the strong follow-up effect produced by the fourth stage.

But no matter what the specific reasons are, "nearly fame" rides the wind and waves, and continues the strength of 1993 to 1994, and gradually pushes the wave of rock revolution to a whole new level, truly extending the golden age of rock and roll in 1993. After continuing, this has also become a decisive year for the handover of history.

"Don't be upset by the past" in the first week of its release, because of the powerful influence of the 42nd stage, coupled with the single "Li" and the album "Almost Fame" that are currently hitting the charts, it won 67,000 in the first week. Thousands of sales, the top 20 airborne bulletin board singles, ranked 18th.

With this result alone, we can see the popularity of Glory to Death, which is now steadily increasing. Although it is only the second single, it has already gained wide recognition among the audience.

Generally speaking, more people who buy albums are fans, because the price of the album is more expensive and there are more tracks, so most of the people who are willing to buy are fans, or even use it as a collection after purchase; relatively speaking, the purchase order The music is more extensive. Some ordinary listeners may not like the singer or the album, but only like a certain song, so they buy a single.

This situation was vividly expressed in the album "teenage.dream" released by Katy Perry in 2010. This album gave birth to five champion singles, which were tied. She became the most singer in the history of singers-she became the first female singer with five champion singles on a single album. The highest-selling "California Girl (.gurls even achieved a total of 6 million sales, but " In 2010, the sales of the entire album "Youth Dream" was less than 2 million, and it only sold 5.5 million in 2014.

Of course, this is not a theorem, but just a theoretical statement. In the real situation, album sales will still be higher than singles, because fans don’t need to buy additional singles after buying the albums; and singles are purchased by non-fans only because of the charm of the singles. .

Therefore, people generally say that the high album sales are due to the strength of the fans, while the high single sales are due to the expansion of awareness.

"Don't be annoyed by the past" This single achieved such an outstanding achievement in its first week of release, and that's it, thanks to the growing recognition of glory to death.

The following week was affected by the news of Kurt-Korbain’s suicide. The sales of "Don't Be Annoyed by the Past" decreased a bit, and the singles of Nirvana, such as "Youth Heart", went up together and returned. In the list, even so, "Don't be annoyed by the past" still stayed at the 19th place with a sales volume of 60,000.

This also proves that ~www.readwn.com~Glory to Death has now established a firm foothold in the entire music industry, and they have gradually gained recognition for the changes brought about by rock and roll. Especially the song "Don't be annoyed by the past", if the previous "Li" still had the style of grunge rock, then this single is a brand new track that combines pop and British rock, which can get such a wide audience. The stable support is indeed a highlight.

It can be seen that, amidst the overwhelming controversy and crusade, the bold changes made to music by Glory To Death have been recognized by ordinary listeners and quietly integrated into the long history of history. The revolution of rock and roll has already begun irreversibly.

In this way, it is not surprising that "almost fame" created such a brilliant sales volume in 1994.

However, "Don't be annoyed by the past" this single has only just begun. Just before the first anniversary of the establishment of Glory to Death, their brilliance in the music scene has begun to show the tip of the iceberg. No wonder people The "Four Second Stage" will be called the handover of history, because everything starts from this time and this single. (To be continued (Dian Dian Han paper) provided.
