The Grammy Awards have begun.

An annual musical extravaganza with veteran rock star Bruce-Springsteen as the opening guest.

This music superstar, who has an irreplaceable lofty status in the United States, has not only received many affirmations from the Grammys and Oscars as a singer, but also has an unshakable strong appeal among the masses. Worldwide, his albums have sold 120 million copies.

Tonight, shouldering the opening performance of the Grammys, Bruce did not disappoint, and one after another popular pop hits were released, and it only took 60 seconds to turn the whole venue into a party scene.

Everyone swayed to the rhythm, singing, devoting themselves to it, and enjoying it as if it were a Brazilian carnival! Unlike film and television award ceremonies, the entertainment nature of a musical party allows everyone to roll up their sleeves, raise their hands high, leave their chairs, release their restraints, and truly participate.

Bruce Springsteen's wonderful opening performance was lively, vigorous, and mighty! This seems to set the tone for the entire awards ceremony tonight.

After the opening show, rapper James Todd-Smith (stage name: LL-Cool-J), the first official host of the Grammys in nearly seven years, appeared in a black suit and began the evening with a mournful and sad tone, "Sadly, someone in our extended family has left. ”

On the big screen, Whitney Houston began to sing her masterpiece "I-ill-Alays-Love-You", and the audience quietly enjoyed and prayed silently. After the play, James said, "Whitney, we will always love you." ”

From Bruce Springsteen to Whitney Houston, including host James Todd Smith, the 54th edition of the Grammys shines in retro remembrance, and all three singers have reawakened memories of the last glory of the music market in the nineties.

Bruno Mars, who appeared next to the stage, represents the present of the new generation of singers in the 21st century. In the opening twenty minutes, the Grammys completed a gorgeous turn from the past to the present.

After the performance, the awards officially began.

For Lan Li, tonight is the complete onlooker. In fact, Lan Li knew that he had received six nominations, because the people around him had said too many times, "six", this number had been deeply imprinted in his mind, but he didn't remember exactly which six nominations they were, and he didn't care too much - they were all running anyway.

Not only is the mind stable, but also relaxed. Even, Lan Li also had the leisure to chat with Alex and Annie. The statement of "chatting" is not accurate, it should be that they watched the performance seriously, and when they encountered a problem, they raised their heads and asked, and Lan Li would give a serious answer.

But to be honest, Lan Li's understanding of the music field can only be regarded as ordinary.

Among the first country awards, Taylor Swift, who has been popular in recent years, won the best country singer and best country song awards, respectively, while the pre-war goddess, who swept five Grammy trophies last year, has weakened slightly this year and only won the best country album award.

In addition, the indie folk duo The-Civil-ars won Best Country Group Performance for their new album's eponymous title track, Barton-Hollo, as well as Best Folk Album.

It is worth mentioning that if it wasn't for Anne's initiative to remind Lan Li that Lan Li wouldn't have noticed at all, the first nomination for "Don Quixote" appeared like this, the Best Folk Album Award.

Therefore, when the award presenters announced the award for "Courtyard Valley", Lan Li was not disappointed or surprised, took the initiative to applaud and congratulate, and explained to Anne, "Their first album was excellent. It seems that the second album is also worth looking forward to, and I should go back to the record store to find vinyl records. ”

There's no doubt that Taylor is the biggest winner in the country category, but the Civil War group's victory once again continues the momentum of this year's rise in Grammy folk.

The Grammy darlings U2 and Bruce Springsteen didn't have any work last year, which also made Spitfire a brilliant band - they swept away four trophies for Best Rock Performance, Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance, Best Rock Song, Best Rock Album, and Best Long-Form Music Video.

With ease, the Spitfire completed all the awards in the rock category.

In his acceptance of Best Rock Song, beating Coldplay, Blessed Sons, Radioheads, and others, Spitfire home arena David Gru gave an acceptance speech with a special mention of the declining City of Sounds.

"I have to thank Butch-Vig for recording this song, twenty years ago we recorded Nirvana's 'Nevermind' in the City of Sound, and twenty years later we went back to the garage to finish the album. The fall of the City of Sound records the end of an era.

However, I had a great time tonight because I saw another song from the City of Sound once again and received recognition.

Ranley Hall, everybody is talking about what the hell this actor is here to join in, but I must say that he's a true music lover. He knows how to appreciate the charm of the city of sound, but also the soul of the music itself. The city of sound is much more than what you record and perform in front of your computer.

So, let's wait and see!"

It was supposed to be the Spitfire's winning moment, but the name "Blue Rite-Hall" took up most of the space. The guests at the scene couldn't help but be stunned, and they all cast their eyes towards Lan Li's location: What's the matter? How did Lan Li get acquainted with David? And David was full of praise? Isn't Lan Li a complete outsider?

Even Anne asked curiously, "Lan Li, do you know him?"

"There was a relationship before. Lan Li said with a smile.

When "Cleopatra" and "Ophelia" were recorded in the City of Sound, Lan Li and David had a brief conversation. But time has passed, and the two have almost no intersection, Lan Li never expected that David not only remembered himself, but also was so impressed. Lan Li strongly doubted that Herbert Jones had been babbling in front of David.

Just when Lan Li thought that all the rock and roll related awards had been awarded, his name came from the stereo, "Lan Li Hall, 'Don Quixote'." ”

In the next second, the spotlight was focused, and at the same time, the cameraman also moved quickly with the camera and found the target in the crowd. In an instant, Lan Li stood in the spotlight, everything happened too suddenly, without any warning, even if he was as calm as Lan Li, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes:

It's not a pre-arranged session.

Anne and Alex were extremely excited, clapping their hands vigorously and screaming excitedly, "Lan Li, Lan Li!" The applause at the scene was not too enthusiastic, which also made the voices of the two little ones spread sharply and harshly, causing a good-natured laughter among the surrounding guests.

After a short period of stunnedness, Lan Li rationally cast his gaze towards the big screen, and then found the answer:

Best Alternative Album Award. Ranley Hall, "Don Quixote".

It was Don Quixote's second nomination tonight, beating Bon-Iver, Radiodirector, the Foster family, Death-Cab-For-Cutie, and Lance-Hall to take home his first gramophone trophy at the Grammys.

Stunned, surprised, dazed, confused. Many emotions echoed in his chest, but Lan Li still kept his calm, left his position, left his position in the gaze, and walked to the aisle and to the stage.

Tonight, Lan Li is the center of attention, but not a popular superstar. He was seated on the left side of the third row, with the American indie band The-Black-Keys on his right hand and the unique British singer Robyn on his left. It's not a central location, but it's not a remote location.

The members of the Black Keys smiled and apologized, and they took the initiative to applaud and congratulate them. Lan Li came to the aisle, and then saw a person in the central area standing up, raising his hands high, and clapping vigorously - he was the only one standing up in a large circle in the vicinity, standing out from the crowd and being particularly conspicuous, Lan Li saw it at a glance.

Ludacles.

There have been partners in Fast & Thrill 5, but he has always been a supporter of Vin Diesel. Outside of being an actor, he's actually a great rapper, with albums and singles that have been very successful on Billboard, as well as three Grammy trophies.

I didn't expect the two to meet again in such an unexpected way outside of Hollywood. Ludacris gave a round of applause, while Lan Li smiled and thanked him.

Similar venues, similar ceremonies, similar scenes, but completely different feelings. Lan Li always had a sense of alienation, as if she didn't belong here, but she was involved in it, and the feeling was really subtle and indescribable.

Walking on the stage, Lan Li saw the award presenter, Katy Perry.

Katie smiled wide, her mouth wide open, and at the same time opened her hands in a hugging gesture, and Lan Li spread her hands and cast a confused gaze, as if to say, "What's going on? Are you sure you're right?"

This look made Katie look up and laugh happily, walked forward, and gave Lan Li a hug, "Don't worry, I was not mistaken." Katie shouted at Lan Li, "Congratulations! It's a very, very good album, and I'm serious." ”

Afterwards, Katie took the trophy from the master of ceremonies, handed it to Lan Li, and congratulated her with a smile on her face again, "This is your moment!

Lan Li's smile was a little ridiculous and helpless, as well as flattered panic, "Thank you, I wish you good luck in the future." Lan Li replied, expressing his blessing.
