Soar to the top of the 956 Eternal Showdown
Under the instigation of the media, the fans who were glorious to death almost burst out with twice their combat effectiveness, and confronted the fans of the Nirvana band head-on, and in the end, they also broke out with 550,000 single-week sales as expected by the media, surpassing the first week of the showdown between "Bathing in the Morning Light" and "Two Boys, Two Men", and achieving a new record for the highest total sales in a single week this year.
Thus was born the interweaving of histories.
Thirteen weeks after its release, "Bathing in the Morning Light" still took out a fierce number of 600,000 jù, and the explosive power is simply a miracle in the music market, and it is almost a miracle that cannot be replicated, this sales figure not only made the album "Bathing in the Morning Light" go down in history, but also made this album a witness to the collapse of the Nirvana Dynasty.
When the Billboard album charts were announced in the third week of November, countless loyal fans of Nirvana wept bitterly, not only because the band they supported lost their last chance to win the Billboard title, but also because the gods in their hearts were gone forever.
At ten o'clock in the evening of the same day, a total of more than 80 large and small cities in the United States held commemorative ceremonies, all the fans of the Nirvana band gathered together, lit candles, held them high, and silently wept under the light of the candlelight, and the crystal tears became the witness of the last glory of the Nirvana Dynasty.
In the third week of November, the top 10 albums on the Billboard album chart were: "Bathing in the Morning Light", "MTV", "Two Boys, Two Men", "Murder is a Case", "Youthanasia", "Smash", "Big. ones)", bedtime stories. tories)", "wildflowers", "beasts".
The champion came from glory to death, the runner-up came from the band Nirvana, the fifth place came from the originator of the mountain (megadeth), and the sixth place came from the band (the. offspring), seventh and ninth from Tom Petty, a native American traditional rock musician. Petty), and the 10th place was the band Eyeballs. It is worth mentioning that the eighth place "bedtime story" comes from:
Ten albums, seven rocks.
In 1994, he died. The rock dynasty changed dynasties again.
The thirteenth consecutive championship victory of "Bathing in the Morning Light" was so miserable, but also so tragic, they stepped on the last glory of the Nirvana band "MTV" to crown the throne, which is more memorable than the previous victory over the boy boy band, the victory over the band of the blink of an eye, and the victory over the "Lion King", but also came with hardship and bitterness, even if the victory, it is full of indescribable mixed taste.
Nirvana and Glory to Death, two bands that have only crossed paths once, but because they stand at the crossroads of history, they have become rivals, but in this short but brilliant way, they have completed the most brilliant and special confrontation of the two bands' careers.
After thirteen consecutive championships, the cumulative sales of "Bathing in the Morning Light" exceeded five million in one fell swoop, reaching 5.56 million, at this time there are still six weeks left before 1994, and it doesn't seem too difficult for this album to hit 7 million, of course, the final result will not be known until the final year-end statistics come out, but even so, if this result is placed last year, this is an album that is qualified to win the year-end sales championship!
Not only that, but no one will forget that Jì's "almost famous" also achieved 5 million sales in 1994, and the fact that a band had two such strong albums in the same year also made it clear that the current glory to death in North America is unparalleled.
After an incredible thirteen consecutive championships, "Bathing in the Morning Light" obviously burst out too much energy against Nirvana, and the fourth week of November seemed a little weak, although it still achieved 270,000 sales, but this result was the worst weekly sales after the release of the album.
Founded in 1971, the Eagles are the top bands on a par with the Beatles and Led Zeppelin, and their charm has been polished and shined over time, even after experiencing the madness of grunge rock and the surging of new metal rock.
This time, the Eagles released a new album "Frozen Hell (hell. freezes。 Over)" is menacing, and 460,000 sales broke out in the first week, although it did not break the first week sales record of "Bathing in the Morning Light", but ending the thirteen-week consecutive championship of "Bathing in the Morning Light" is a result without suspense!
As a result, after thirteen weeks of dominance by "Bathing in the Morning Light", the Billboard album charts finally ushered in a new number one face.
"Frozen Hell" is a live concert album reunited by the Eagles after a 12-year breakup, and this album contributed to the "Hotel California" that has since been regarded as an absolute classic by countless people. california)" version of the seven-minute and twelve-second version, which has been widely circulated among the fan base.
Although it is said that it was the Eagles who ended the glory to death, people do not think so, because everyone knows that it is the matchup of the thirteenth week champion of the glory to death that is truly worth remembering.
Glory to death After the peak duel with the Nirvana Band, almost all the energy was consumed, and the sales in a single week fell by more than half, and the direct director lost to the menacing Eagle Band, injuring the enemy by 1,000 and losing 800, which has to be said to be an irony, which makes people laugh and cry.
Twenty years later, when people look back on the rock frenzy of 1994, most of them remember not that "Bathing in the Morning Light" achieved the glory of "Bathing in the Morning Light", nor that the Eagles ended the "Bathing in the Morning Light" streak of winning championships, but the short but exciting week of glory to death and Nirvana.
It's only been a week, but it's enough to get countless rock fans talking.
Many loyal rock bands will still remember the madness of that week years later, and the Nirvana band and their fans who were glorious to death were like crazy people, and they couldn't wait to roll up their sleeves and go into battle, and their battlefield was every city, every record store, in order to support their favorite bands.
Nirvana and Glory to Death, two bands that have almost no intersection, have been repeatedly mentioned by people in the long history, just because of the rock spirit in their bones that never admit defeat and never bow their heads, even if there are countless pairs of wonderful opponents in the next two decades, no one has been able to surpass them.
The former ushered in the era of grunge rock, and the latter ushered in the era of new metal rock, and the duel between the two staggered the time of rock and roll dynasty change, which was annihilated in the long river of history, but forever left its footprints.
When people recall this week's confrontation, they can't help but think of the "42 Stage" again, the only head-to-head battle between the two great rivals, and the two bands didn't even play each other directly, but that performance became the talk of countless rock fans.
People talk about Kurt's return to the light in that performance, the brilliant and resonant song of "youthful heart"; People talk about Hugo's trance-stricken state that day, and the achievement of "don't be upset about the past." look。 ba。 anger)" of the brilliance; People talk about the madness of the audience that day, people talk about the excitement of the stage that day, people talk about the brilliance of the day's performances, people talk about the wonderful music of the day......
Ironically, there were very few people who actually witnessed the 42 stage, because it was just a charity event, and most of the audience who witnessed the performance were just students from Venice High School, and many more people did not see it but only heard about it.
This is the interesting thing about history, when the incident happened, people didn't care at all, they didn't notice the special time at all, but they didn't react until many years later, and it turned out that at that moment on that day, they witnessed the birth of history, and they became a part of history. When I realized this, I found that I could no longer find the details of the day in my pale memory, and could only recall the excitement and grandeur of the day from the yellowed photos and newspapers.
Perhaps, this is the so-called confidant. Even if they weren't friends with each other at all, even if they had only met once in public, even if they hadn't even had a friendly conversation, they were the most familiar and strangest competitors.
"Bathing in the Morning Light" won the thirteenth consecutive week championship in this brilliant and special way, which not only made this album go down in history, but also became an interesting story when later generations talked about it, people will always say, "This is the only time that Nirvana and Glory to Death have clashed, but it is shocking and crying ghosts and gods......
I don't know if it's because the duel with Nirvana consumes too much energy, or because the follow-up competitors are too strong, after the Eagles, Kenny (Kenny. g), then Pearl Sauce and then Garth Brooks, "Morning Light" stayed in the top three until the end of 1994, but it didn't make it back to the top again, and if the album wanted to do anything further, it had to wait until 1995.
The Billboard album charts are completely dominated by rock bands, the top 10 has been dominated by rock bands for a long time, and the championship has been affiliated to glory to death for a long time, even the eagles who won the championship in the future are still rock bands, which is also quite an interesting situation. In the second half of 1994, everyone witnessed the road to the top of glory to death, among which strong competitors were one after another, including Nirvana, which became the most talked about scene of the year.
