Chapter 1103 1103 The first trophy

Hugo did not expect that, nor did other members of the glory to death. They did not expect that tonight's award ceremony was actually related to them! Substantive relationship!

We focused on the glory of the next performance until death and had no idea where the award ceremony was going, and we didn't even know what award was being awarded at this time. But just as the band members were distracted, they won their first Grammy trophy. This unexpected victory almost left the entire scene in shock.

Grammys inherited the musical status of Glory to Death, and after giving Glory to Death eight nominations, they took another big step, speeding up the pace of keeping up with the music market again, giving Glory to Death a phonograph trophy, commending Glory to Death for his contribution to the music market over the past two years.

Or to be more precise, it is to commend alternative rock for the unremitting efforts since the 1990s, thus allowing rock to recreate its excitement. A small step for Grammy is a big step in the entire rock field. From Nirvana, Pearl Sauce to Glory to Death, the accumulation and precipitation of countless bands finally allowed alternative rock to occupy a place in the Grammy! This is the first historic trophy of alternative rock in the Grammy since the rise of grunge, and it is a new metal rock that is more alternative and trendy!

In fact, the clues can be seen from the nomination stage. The representative figure of alternative rock leads the nomination stage until death, with eight nominations being awesome, and the soul characters of grunge Nirvana, Sound Garden, Pearl Jam and Alice Prisoners have also won corresponding nominations. Coupled with the rise of the Nine-Inch Nails and Green Sun, all of this seems to have herald the 37th Grammy destined to be extraordinary.

Among the five nominations for the Best Rock Song Award, Glory took two seats to death. "Beautiful Day" and "Don't.look.back.in.anger" were shortlisted for the award. Although the latter was included in the album "Almost Fame", the single was released in 1994, so it joined the Grammy competition.

In addition, "All.apologies" created by Cote Coben for the Nirvana band, "black.hole.sun" created by Chris Cornell for the Sound Garden, and "streets.of.philadelphia" created by Bruce Springsteen for the movie "Philadelphia Story" were shortlisted for the award.

Since this award praises the song creator, the creator's name is marked when nominations. Whitney Houston said when announcing the award, "'Good Day', Hugo Lancaster."

From this nomination list, we can see that Blues is a representative of traditional rock. Blues, who has been on stage since 1973, has witnessed the rise and fall of rock; while Cott and Chris are the peak representatives of grunge, both of which are the soul characters of their band; Hugo naturally represents new metal rock, and the vitality and spirit he injects into glory to death are also unparalleled.

In fact, the four nominees for the five best rock songs are the three generations of old, middle-aged and young rock songs today. Before the award ceremony, people generally believed that no matter who wins this award, it is well deserved. The high level of creative strength and work completion has never been seen for many years.

However, based on off-court factors, Coben, who died unexpectedly and Springsteen, who has been in a long history, are the strongest competitors, and people generally believe that the award will be born among both.

Lancaster, known as the most shining newcomer in the past two years, has nominated two songs this time, which is the biggest reward. Objectively speaking, "A Beautiful Day" is a song that changes the history of music, which is comparable to the original "Youth Spirit"; and the popularity of "Don't be upset about the past" ranks among the top in the year. However, due to the special relationship between glory and death and the Grammy, people can only look down on the prospect of glory and death in this award.

However, the Grammy gave everyone a surprise!

The audience was applauding. Perhaps rock has lost its core position in the mainstream market, but to be more precise, Americans born in the 1960s and 1970s always retain a rock dream, because this is the most profound imprint in their growth environment. Since 1977, rock, which has fallen into an endless decline, finally reappeared its glory after five years of brewing in the early 1990s. First, it conquered the record market, and now it has won a place in the Grammy.

Unconsciously, history is already at your feet.

The members of the Glory to Death were all a little surprised and looked at each other in a daze. Their bodies still had the inertia to move forward in the backstage, but their brains told them that the direction seemed to be wrong, which made the five people stand in place for a moment, and then Fujin coughed lightly, "Hugo, should you go on stage?"

"Yes, yes, of course." In an instant, the other four members nodded in unison and replied, as if they were telling a philosophical truth.

Hugo shrugged and pursed his lips, turned around and walked towards the stage. But after taking a step, he thought of something and turned to look at his teammates, "Hey, what are you doing, let's go on stage together!"

In fact, the best rock song award is the creator. The winner only wrote Hugo's name, but in Hugo's opinion, it is not the case. They are a band and a whole. Without other members of the band, there will be no "beautiful day" and no glory until death. Therefore, they should go on stage together.

The other members of the glory to death obviously had no way to function normally at this time. They didn't say much, followed Hugo and took steps one after another.

The process sounds long, but in fact it only takes two or three seconds. All the audience clapped and looked at the Glory who was about to leave until death in confusion. They obviously didn't understand what was going on, but they were sure that this was an oath. Many people smiled on their faces.

Amid the lively applause, Hugo and others walked onto the stage with big strides. Whitney gave Hugo a big hug and gave a veneer, "Congratulations, congratulations! God, I really like you guys!"

Hugo looked at the bright smile on Whitney's face. This was the first time he met this queen who had been popular in the 1990s. But at this time, Hugo had too many mixed thoughts in his mind, so he didn't have time to react. He just smiled and said thanks, and then took his own trophy from Whitney.

Gramophone trophy.

This is the most top, most authoritative and influential trophy in the entire music industry. An old phonograph, the trophy is lighter than imagined, and seems to be lighter than the Oscar Little Golden Man; but it is heavier than imagined. The complex factors behind Hugo's ability to win this trophy far exceeds imagination.

Neil put his hand on Hugo's shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Thank you!"

Hugo then reacted, took his eyes off the trophy in his hand, walked quickly to the microphone, and looked up to see a dark crowd in front of him. The lights in front of the stage seemed a little dazzling, making it impossible to see the faces of the audience in front of him. But even so, Hugo still saw friends in the crowd who raised their hands and applauded and were still unwilling to sit down.

That's Pearl Sauce and Green Day.

"Huh, I almost left the auditorium. Fortunately, Whitney stopped me." Hugo's words made the scene burst into laughter. This was actually a sarcasm to Grammy, believing that Glory to death had no relationship with Grammy. The award ceremony was so boring that it made Hugo want to leave. Among the audience, especially those members of alternative rock, all whistled.

Hugo tightened his right hand slightly and held the phonograph in his hand tightly. "First of all, this trophy belongs to our band, Neil, Fokin, Pepe, Alfonso, and me, this is the complete glory to death;" Hugo said simply and forcefully, which made the scene sound again, and the band members standing side by side behind Hugo all applauded with smiles, "Secondly, I must thank the band's agent Henry for your willingness to believe us and come here with us."

Speaking of this, Hugo breathed a long sigh. Since they had no expectations for winning the award today, he did not prepare any award speech. At this time, his mind was even more confused and he could not clarify a way of thinking. So Hugo could only speak subconsciously, "I remember on the road tour, Pepe once asked me a question, 'Where is the end of this road?' He asked when we could leave the damn desert..." Hugo's words made the scene laugh in an instant, and Pedro, who was standing behind, clapped his hands and laughed.

Hugo also chuckled and continued, "I remember my answer at the time was, 'at least not here'. I think this question and answer also applies to today. Thank you!" After that, Hugo turned around and hugged his teammates.

The audience was stunned for a moment, and then realized what Hugo said just now. In an instant, the applause sounded again!

The emcee led the way in front and guided the members of glory to death to leave the stage and headed to the side stage. Hugo and Fujin returned to the backstage with their shoulders. At this time, the singers and other performers who were preparing for the performance in the backstage all stepped forward to express their congratulations. Hugo let go of Fujin's shoulders and landed behind Neil and Pedro, and suddenly stopped.

Everything came too quickly just now. Before Hugo could sort out his thoughts, it seemed that everything was over. At this moment, that real sense of reality came:

He won the award, he won the Grammy phonograph, and he embarked on the road of musical dreams at the age of fifteen. He finally walked to this stage. This road was really too long and too difficult, but he finally arrived! In an instant, all the emotions in his heart surged, submerging Hugo.
Chapter completed!
