Chapter 1754 1754 Kill the suspense
Liam Gallagher's pale cheeks were almost blood-colored. The glory was absolutely strong until death, and then all his anger was gathered, and then he retreated step by step. In the end, he couldn't even get angry. He was like a tattered doll, slumped on a chair, staring at the stage with his eyes blank.
If Maria Carey was sitting next to her, she would definitely be able to deeply understand Liam's despair, anger, jealousy, hatred, and countless tastes mixed together, making her just want to scream, scream, and scream again. The clenched fist had no intuition at all, and even the broken fingernails could not help Maria regain her sanity.
Because Maria's faith was also being defeated by glory to death little by little, this was simply a great humiliation!
Compared to Maria's hardship in the pop department and the rhythm and blues department, when the various awards of the rock department were settled, it became the moment when the fish jumped to the dragon gate. After harvesting four phonographs in one fell swoop, the rock department swept through. If we add the non-classical producer of the year that Hugo harvested before the award ceremony, then there are five trophys in hand so far!
Before the Rock Department Awards were announced, Mariah Carey, Eric Clapton, Lean Remus and the Beatles each led the awards ceremony tonight with two phonograph trophys. But now, Glory swept through five phonographs in one breath, and in a blink of an eye became the biggest winners of this night of history tonight.
At this time, people finally understood why the Recording Academy had made a special trip to Europe to invite Glory to death. If the owner of the five-seater phonograph tonight did not appear on the stage tonight, then the Grammy, who always regarded himself as an authority, would become a complete joke. This is very different from the Oscars and Golden Globes, because the five-seater phonographs belong to the same band. More importantly, the Grammy used this method to express their determination to change, so the Recording Academy could not bear the consequences of Glory to death.
But is the pace of glory to death that ends? No one can give the answer, because the Grammy is not over, and the real heavyweight award is about to be announced: four comprehensive awards are making a brilliant debut!
This time, it is no longer a battle between the dragon and the tiger within the music genre, but a melee between all music genres. After defeating the Oasis Band to dominate the rock department, Glory will face Maria to death this time! This will also be the final battle of the War of the Century that shook the world's music market in 1996. Is it rock or pop? Or to be more precise, is it a popular teaming up with rhythm and blues to dominate the market, or is the rock recovery momentum dominating the world?
Will the choice of the market be consistent with the choice of the Grammy?
Maria tried hard to start taking a deep breath to cool down the heat in her chest slightly, otherwise she wouldn't know what would happen. Maria told herself that this was a Grammy, not an Oscar.
Awards in the classification department will not have a direct impact on comprehensive awards, because this is a comprehensive consideration of the entire music market. Just like rock has been suppressed in the past ten years, just like pop has always been the darling of the market, just like the status of the countryside can never be shaken... The strength of the classification department has very limited impact on comprehensive awards. In the past ten years, popular and rural areas have been the big winners of comprehensive awards. R&B has risen strongly after entering the 1990s, which is the trajectory of the entire market.
Just like in the past few Grammys, no matter how outstanding or strong the performance of Glory is, "Bathing in the Morning Light" has won two Best Production Awards of the Year only with Hugo's personal talent, and has always missed the Best Single of the Year and Best Album of the Year Awards. Not to mention that there is no second chance for Best Newcomer of the Year Award after missing it.
This year, Hugo has received the award from the non-classical producer of the year in advance. In other words, in the competition among the four comprehensive awards, Honor is still at a disadvantage. "What's more, Honor is sweeping through the rock department, which is the biggest praise for Honor to death. This means that the four comprehensive awards should still be popular, and the world of rhythm and blues!"
Maria's mind was filled with countless thoughts, and confidence returned to her body bit by bit, but her cold and stiff fingertips still revealed her irritability and anxiety at the moment.
When the first award for the best newcomer of the year was revealed, Lean Remus, Maria breathed a sigh of relief. The smile on her face immediately bloomed, and even sincerely gave warm applause to the 14-year-old girl. Because this result confirmed Maria's inner thoughts and immediately increased her confidence.
The top five candidates for this year's Best Newcomer of the Year Award are the garbage band representing rock, undoubtedly the band, the band representing popular Zhuer, the Tony Rich Enterprise representing rhythm and blues, and the Li An representing the countryside.
Judging from the nomination list, rock has remained strong in the past three years, not only occupying two seats, but also having outstanding strength, garbage bands were the favorites to win the championship before the awards ceremony; while popularity, rhythm and blues and countryside are still the main components of the current market, and the performance of the three newcomers is also commendable.
But now, the Best Newcomer of the Year Award is awarded to Li An’s 14-year-old girl. Grammy chose a young girl who is underage instead of a garbage band that stood behind the scenes to push grunge onto the mainstream market. This not only continues the usual style of Grammy in the past few years, but also once again confirms the kingly status of the countryside.
So, Maria was relieved. She was sure that the prospect of winning the four major awards had fallen to the bottom.
The award was followed by...the Best Single of the Year Award, not the Best Production of the Year or the Best Album of the Year, which surprised Maria, because the Best Single of the Year Award is the largest gimmick among the four comprehensive categories, and it is also the only award among the four comprehensive categories that all three have won nominations.
Maria originally thought that the Grammy would put the award at the end and leave the suspense to the end.
The top five nominations for the Best Single of the Year Award are: "Change the World (change.the.world), "becae.loved.me", "sweetheart", "do you know what I mean", and "Sailing"!
Eric Clapton and Babyface sang the theme song "Change the World" for the movie "Different Ben. Neng" and made a big splash in this Grammy. Although the movie's box office performance is average, its theme song is highly recognized. Not only did it win Eric the phonograph trophy for Best Pop Male Singer, but it was also nominated for the competition for Best Single of the Year and Best Production of the Year, which is incredible.
Celine Dion's single "Because You Love Me" is also praised. This single is from Celine's album "Falling in Love" that won the best pop album. It was nominated for two comprehensive awards for Best Single of the Year and Best Production of the Year, and was recognized by the Grammy.
There is no need to mention the other three nomination seats, which are the three horses of the Battle of the Century. It is worth mentioning that "Sailing" defeated the glory to death. Another classic song "Young Volcanoes (Inducement.volcanoes)" has entered the final five, which has also caused heated discussion. Many people expressed dissatisfaction with this choice or believed that "Young Volcanoes" should join hands to "Sailing" to enter the final five.
Among these five seats, Eric, Celine and Maria are all divided into the pop department, while Glory To Death and Oasis are rock representatives. From the nomination list, we once again felt the confrontation of the entire North American music market in the past year. However, in the Grammy's view, pop still gained the upper hand. Even if rock is coming in full force, they still gave pop more affirmation.
The fierce competition for the Best Single of the Year Award can be said to be the highest among the four major comprehensive awards this year. Not only are there three horses, but the other two nominees are also shortlisted for the Best Production of the Year. This shows that the opinions of the Grammy judges have led to the five songs being comparable, and it is the same as the most suspense among all the Grammy awards this year!
Now, Grammys announced the biggest suspense in advance, which immediately made the entire Staples Stadium tense up, and the air began to become hot, as if a little cough would cause flames to snatch the fire, making people unable to help staring at it with their breath.
In the eyes of everyone, Schill, the winner of the award last year, walked onto the stage. He could clearly feel that all his eyes were on his shoulders, and even made his steps extremely heavy. Every step was so difficult, as if the microphone was floating on the other side of the sea of suffering, he would never reach it.
Maria looked at the bright yellow halo in the center, and the light gradually became dizzy, making her feel dizzy. All the scenery was blurred into a circle, and even Shee was left with a sloppy silhouette. Then all the sounds in the world disappeared, leaving only the sound of her heart beating, "Pu...Pu..." The beating speed was very slow. It seemed that a whole century had passed after the first stroke, and the second stroke came. The heartbeat speed that slowed down thousands of times and tens of thousands of times made everything around her stop infinitely. She could only sit in place completely stiffly, and even her fingertips could not move.
Could it be her? Will the name Shiel said is her? Will the winner of this award be her? If it weren't for her... No, the winner of this award must be her, and there is no other choice. The song "Sweetheart" embodies her countless efforts, not only makes bold attempts in arrangement, but also brings her singing skills to the extreme. So, it is her, it must be her!
"Pu...tong...pu...tong...tong...tu...tong..." Maria only felt that the whole world was getting slower and slower, and all the sounds evolved into distant echoes, just like in a vacuum state in space. Then she saw Schill open the envelope, slowly raised her head with a slowing down thousands of times, and said to the microphone, but Schill had already spoken, but Maria could not hear any sound, and there was still silence around her.
Maria could only squint her eyes and tried her best to judge from Schill's mouth, then...who is that? "Ma...or...Shi...Li..."
