Chapter 1115: A New Chapter

The 37th Grammy has officially ended, but the topic of zào created by this award ceremony has just begun.

Tony Benneton won Album of the Year, Cher Crowe won Newcomer of the Year and Single of the Year categories, and Hugo won the Best Production Award for Glory to His Death.

In terms of individual awards, Babyface swept the Rhythm & Blues department, and although he only had two gramophones on his credits, the fact behind all five trophies in the department was baby-faced. Cher and Glory to Death, who also won three gramophone trophies, lead the list of winners, Cher represents the strong rise of newcomers, and Glory to Death means the progress of rock music.

The historical significance of the Grammys this time lies in the fact that the representatives of the "Seattle Voice", Nirvana, Pearl Sauce, Alice Prisoner and Sound Garden became the main nominees in the rock department, and the Sound Garden won two gramophone trophies, reversing the situation of grunge rock in the past three years when it has been popular and sold, but has never been able to win the Grammy.

At the same time, the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, and Bruce Springsteen have put traditional rock back into the market without really being eliminated from the market.

In addition, the new metal rock representatives Glory to Death, Nine Inch Nails, and Several Crows, including the Green Day Band, were born, especially the three gramophones that won the Best Rock Song Award, the Best Rock Album Award and the Best Production Award of the Year in one fell swoop, which was a historic breakthrough, which also completely changed the Grammy landscape.

After the awards ceremony, reporters immediately expressed their gratitude to the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (National. academy。 of。 rec。 arts。 and。 SCES) current chair Michael Green. greene).

The National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences is the organization responsible for awarding the Grammys, which is usually referred to as the full name of the "Academy", and Michael Green became the president of the Academy in 1988, leading the Academy to take the pulse of American music trends. In the past six years, although the Grammys have been somewhat controversial, the overall reputation is still good, and Michael has contributed a lot.

During the interview, Michael first affirmed Cher's excellence, believing that her awards were well deserved, and after the reporters went through the polite session, they immediately pointed the finger at glory to death, or more accurately, to point to the entire rock strength, which is also the biggest attraction of this year's Grammys.

Michael was already depressed and about to vomit blood at this time, and there had been too many accidents tonight because of the glory to death.

If it goes according to the original plan of the academy, then it will be a trophy for glory to death - the award for best rock song, "Beautiful. day)" definitely deserves this award; Then I gave the Sound Garden two trophies, both of which were for live performance, which didn't carry as much weight as the other awards in the rock department, but showed the change in the college's attitude towards grunge rock. This is also a small step on the path of change for the college – a "small" step in the true sense of the word.

But now, first of all, the glory to death created turbulent waves during the performance, stirring up the entire awards ceremony, and the song "Youthful Heart" was almost the loudest slap in the face to the college, not to mention the hidden meaning behind the three songs in series, which made Michael vomit blood three liters; And then the glory to death and the upset won the Best Rock Album award, which made the seven members of the academy's board of directors so embarrassed that they couldn't say a word; Not to mention the final fatal blow, the award for the best production of the year also became an accident, and the flower fell into Hugo's arms.

As for Hugo's cold arrow in his final acceptance speech, in fact, compared to the previous accident, Michael no longer cares.

But Michael can't vent his anger now, because he has to clean up the mess on behalf of the college, and he can't let the Grammys discredit him, which is his duty. So, Michael could only smile kindly, "Glory to Death is a very good band, their performance over the past year is undoubtedly amazing, and I think the results of tonight's awards show proof of that." ”

Michael endured the depression in his heart and responded with official statements, but he was never willing to praise the glory to death.

"In tonight's live performance, we abandoned the well-known 'Good Day' and chose to sing new songs that have never been released, including the classic song 'Youthful Heart' of the Nirvana Band, and the scene fell into some chaos during the performance, it seems that there are problems with the sound and lighting, what do you think about this?" ”

Michael gritted his teeth fiercely, and if glory to death appeared in front of him at this time, he wasn't sure if he could resist not stepping forward and biting those bastards! But he still held back, and laughed hehe, expressing his "happy" mood, "It was a wonderful performance, wasn't it?" ”

Michael's words were met with positive responses from many reporters. At this time, Michael's heart was dripping blood, but he couldn't stop.

"In fact, we have been discussing this performance for a long time with Glory to the Death." Michael said calmly, as if everything was the truth, "Hugo once mentioned that he was very sorry for the death of Kurt Cobain, and we are all saddened by the death of this genius. So we prepared a tribute to Kurt. But as we all know, Kurt is a maverick rock musician, and he certainly doesn't like us to do a solemn memorial session, which is too cliché. Therefore, we explored such a plan, singing 'Youthful Heart' from glory to death, and accompanied by two special songs, expressing the deep mourning, nostalgia and reverence in our hearts. ”

The academy is worthy of being an academy, and sure enough, the old fox. Michael actually said that the black one was white, and he was stunned to say that this link was conceived by the Grammys, and his face was comparable to the ancient Roman city walls.

However, Glory to Death and Henry, Rick and the others obviously won't mind this, because as Henry expected, when things go on as expected, things are already a foregone conclusion, and in the style of the Grammys, they will definitely not tear down the stage - not to mention that the Glory to Death performance is so successful and sensational, they will not let go of this opportunity.

Therefore, the Grammys will definitely grit their teeth and admit that this is the result of going according to plan, there are no accidents, and there is no so-called "live broadcast accident", and everything is taken for granted. At least on the surface, the Grammys are not going to tear their faces with glory to the death.

As it turned out, Michael was already bleeding internally, but he replied with a smile on his face. In fact, Michael doesn't have much choice, not to mention that acting has become an established fact, just saying that Glory to Death accidentally won the Best Production of the Year award, Michael will not debunk Glory to Death - they can't always say: Hey, the award was wrong, we don't agree with Glory to Death winning the award. That's the real joke.

Therefore, since the upset has been created, Michael not only cannot condemn the glory to death, but also seeks to praise the glory to death to prove that the "Grammy's choice" is correct.

"As for the chaos on the scene, it was just some glitches, and we must be thankful that it didn't affect the excitement of the Glory to Death performance." Michael made a smile and said lightly. But only he knew that his nails were already embedded in his palms at this time.

"Some people think that the three songs chosen by Glory to Death are actually expressions of dissatisfaction with the Grammys, and that the Grammys have not given rock and roll a corresponding important status, and the fact that Nirvana has not been able to win awards on the Grammys is the best proof of this." But apparently the reporter still doesn't want to let Michael go, and is still pressing step by step.

Michael laughed angrily at this time, "'Someone thinks'? Can I be sued for who I am? Did any member of the Glory to Death publicly admit these remarks? "On this point, Michael can be justified: because at the just-concluded award ceremony, the trend of the award is the best rebuttal evidence!" If not, I think you're spreading rumors and slandering, you can personally interview some glorious death, and I think Hugo would be happy to answer your question. ”

"What about the Nirvana Band...... "The reporter still refused.

"The Grammys are an authoritative award, and each award winner is voted on by all of our members, so I don't know if your question is questioning the professionalism and authority within our academy, or if you are questioning the distribution of the awards tonight?" Michael had the absolute initiative on this issue, so he retorted with confidence, "I think you should pay attention to tonight's awards ceremony to see how ridiculous your question is." ”

Just now Michael admitted that the glorious to death performance was carefully planned by them, and now it has become rebuttal evidence, which really makes Michael breathe a bad breath. Although they were used by glory unto death, they had to swallow coptis dumbly; But they can also use the Glory to Death tonight's move to silence the talk about the Nirvana controversy for a long time.

This is the official position of the Grammys, not only did they deny the so-called live broadcast accident, so that this "accident" was not able to boil into a loud noise; At the same time, he also acknowledged the performance and success of Glory to Death, and in this head-to-head confrontation between Glory to Death and the Grammys, Glory to Death won completely!

With Michael's official interview announced, the 37th Grammy has truly settled. Although I don't know how the Grammys will develop next year and beyond, and how they and the glorious festival to death should end; But at least for now, it seems that this year's Grammys have come to an end "harmoniously".

Michael's forced affirmation of glory to death also officially announced the change of the Grammys, grunge and new metal rock have been recognized by the mainstream market, and rock and roll, which has been silent for nearly 15 years, has finally returned to the mainstream sight. A new chapter has quietly begun!
