Lan Li under the bright light, standing quietly in front of the microphone, no accompaniment, no lights, no rehearsal, just singing in a clear voice, moving voice, with a hint of hoarseness, like poetry, but also like singing, telling the story, light and profound pull the deep emotions of the soul, a touch of bitterness spread on the tip of the tongue.

This is the acceptance speech, this is the acceptance speech of the Grammy Album of the Year Awards. However, Lan Li did not speak, did not thank anyone, but chose to sing a cappella.

More importantly, Lan Li's singing is so moving, so sincere and beautiful, and the charm of the melody and lyrics makes everyone involuntarily fall into it, enter the world built by Lan Li, and gradually, gradually understand the meaning of this "award speech".

As a result, not only Staples Stadium, not only the pioneer villages, but the audience across the United States who were watching the Grammys, everyone fell into a brief moment of stunned and stunned. Temporarily put down what he was doing, and listened quietly, quietly.

"Forge perfection and fly high. ”

A song "Beast", after singing. Lan Li stood quietly in place, his surging mind not able to calm down quickly. He fulfilled the promise of the concert, but she did not fulfill the promise of "The Beast", but tonight, at least he can stand on the stage, complete the performance of "The Beast", and fulfill her dream.

Bowing his head, the gramophone trophy in his hand is brilliant and dazzling under the light, and the heavy weight is heavily pressed on his heart, this trophy is to reward "Don Quixote", and it is also the dream of musicians, and it is the persistence of countless Don Quixote;

From today onwards, he will carry another dream and move on.

Mood, calm, fist, clenched.

Lan Li raised his head again and said into the microphone, "Thank you!" A word of thanks carried too much, but it was enough. Without stopping, Lan Li turned around and left the stage neatly.

All the guests were silent, immersed in the melody of the song, and couldn't come back to their senses.

No one chooses to sing a cappella for their acceptance speech, no one sings "So Grass / Your Dreams" to express their gratitude to the Grammys, and no one turns away in style after winning Album of the Year...... Until tonight, the aftermath seems to show no signs of stopping.

According to statistics, more than 43 million viewers tuned in to the awards ceremony that night, second only to the 1984 Grammy Awards, when Michael Jackson swept eight gramophone trophies, which attracted 51 million viewers!

Not only is it the first time since 1988 that the Grammys have received more than 30 million viewers, but it has also become the second-largest event in history.

After the turn of the millennium, the ratings of major awards ceremonies are gradually declining, and the Grammys and Oscars are no exception. For the Grammys, the highest number of viewers in the past 12 years was only 27 million, but this year it has skyrocketed to 43 million, reaching an incredible peak.

This is undoubtedly important good news for the bold and innovative Grammys!

According to the sample survey, Adele became the biggest highlight of the night, with more than 17 percent of the interviewees choosing her, while the Blue Gift became the second biggest attraction of the awards ceremony, with 16.5 percent of the interviewees choosing him, and Adele's showdown with Bruno Mars, the tribute to Whitney Houston, and Miss Quack's performance ranked third to fifth respectively.

When asked about "the biggest surprise of the night", 26 percent of the interviewees chose "Lan Li-Hall's unexpected win", 19 percent of the interviewees chose "Adele swept five trophies", and 11 percent of the people chose "Lan Li-Hall's three award speeches".

The most unbelievable thing is that in the question of "the most wonderful performance of the night", Adele's first comeback live performance after throat surgery deservedly topped the list with 23% of the vote, but the second performance after receiving 18% of the vote was the "Winning Speech of the Album of the Year"!

When Lan Li received the Album of the Year award, he chose an unexpected way to give an acceptance speech, but he received an explosive response and feedback, and even a group of musicians led by Paul McCartney, John Legend, Katy Perry, and Miss Gaga, not to mention the general audience, were full of praise.

In the sample survey, the performance of this acceptance speech beat countless wonderful performances and received 18% of the vote, which is just the tip of the iceberg, and then Google's keyword search rankings, the keyword "Lan Li-Hall, acceptance speech, performance", remained the champion for 48 hours.

Everyone is asking the same question: What is that song called?

Obviously, not everyone has heard of "Don Quixote", and not everyone recognizes Lan Li's identity as a singer. But, after tonight, things seem to be quietly changing.

On top of the iTunes instant download chart, the single "Beast" quickly soared in the form of a rocket, and it took only two hours to reach the top of the list, while Adele's "Falling into the Abyss" was popular for a year, and then recovered again, returning to the runner-up position on the instant download chart.

After that, "The Beast" stayed on top of the championship for a day, two days, three days...... The continued popularity seems to have no end, even surpassing "Cleopatra" and "Firmly Believe" to become Lan Li's most well-known single so far.

The influence of the Grammys can be seen!

The annual Grammys were originally the focus of attention, but this year's focus is particularly hot. First Adele, then Bruno Mars, then Blue Rite, plus Kanye West and Spitfire, the topics one after another, the heat wave after wave, caused a sensation throughout North America, and became the most lively, interesting and memorable event in the past 30 years.

And that's been proven by the facts.

Standing in the future 20 or 30 years later, returning to the development of the music industry after the 21st century, people suddenly found that this Grammy has truly gone down in history-

Not only because of the strong rise of new singers such as Adele, Schillek, and Lan Li, who not only grabbed power and injected new vitality into the entire market, but also because folk and rock re-showed the momentum of recovery and once again awakened the creative enthusiasm of independent musicians, but also because of the success of the album "Don Quixote", a seed of dreams was planted in the hearts of teenagers, and after taking root, a group of successors to Don Quixote were born, which became an important force to change the status quo of the industry!

This Grammy has had an indelible impact on the development of the industry, on the composition of the market, and even on the trend of popularity.

In the Internet age and the background of fast food culture, the mainstream momentum of electronics, dance music, and pop is unshakable, which is the general trend of the times, but in the niche fields and independent spaces outside the mainstream market, bluegrass, jazz, folk, rock, soul, rhythm and blues, etc., have once again returned to people's attention, and a hundred flowers are blooming, and a hundred schools of thought are contending.

The tide of the times is unstoppable, but at least the so-called minorities can still earn their place. Culture and art need not to be singular, but diverse, not mainstream, but prosperous. The 54th edition of the Grammys became a crucial turning point.

History has always been like this, inadvertently turning an era upside down, but this time, when the awards ceremony ended, people got a glimpse of it.

It's the end of another year of Grammys, and the biggest winner of this year, without a doubt, is definitely Adele.

Six nominations, five trophies, including Production of the Year, Single of the Year and two general trophies, and beating out two strong rivals in the pop category, Miss Gagaga and Bruno Mars, each award can be described as full of weight! The only album of the year that missed, despite the defeat, "21" was still the highest-selling album of the year in 2011!

In addition to Adele, Kanye West and Spitfire, who won four trophies, completely dominated their music category, and their absolutely strong performance has also become a beautiful landscape;

Comparatively speaking, Bruno Marles, Katy Perry, Miss Gaga, and Lil Wayne, who returned empty-handed, became the disappointed people of the night. Especially Bruno and Katie, both singers have achieved incredible success in the market for this album, but they are not favored by the Grammys after all, which is suffocating.

However, after the entire awards ceremony ended, the only one who could be compared to Adele was not Kanye or Bruno, but Lan Li.

Lan Li, who continues to climb the peak of his career as an actor, dedicated a wonderful album in 2011, and on the 2011 summary list selected by many magazines, "Don Quixote" almost swept thousands of troops, and was rated as the best, most exciting, and best album of the year with an absolute advantage, and professional reviews ushered in an explosion across the board.

But those mere acknowledgments from professional critics were enough to ensure that Don Quixote was nominated for a Grammy, but not enough for the album to win the Gramophone trophy — this time it was an exception.

Best Alternative Album, New Artist of the Year, Album of the Year. Three Gramophone trophies, from six nominations, a 50% winning rate is not high, but it includes two awards in the general category, which is two points with Adele, and more importantly, this is a folk album, and there is not even a folk album of its own classification.

Such a feat is incredible!
