Chapter 264: Grammy (Medium)
The long-awaited, much-anticipated Grammy Awards ceremony has finally begun, and South Korea and the United States are basically paying attention to as long as they can watch the broadcast on TV.
Los Angeles' Staples Center, where the Grammy Awards ceremony was held, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a star-studded gathering, all kinds of luxury cars gather here, it is completely an exhibition, and then look at the strips of cloth on those female stars - because they are designed by famous designers, they wear less than one another, and one is sexy, after all, the openness and concept of the European and American entertainment circles are different from those of Orientals, and Oriental stars are now learning from Western stars.
An Yuxi is still wearing a simple white suit, with a black shirt inside, a belt is a birthday gift from Jessica, and a blue tie is a birthday gift from his mother, although the match is very simple, he has always been this kind of image, because the image is very good, and he looks good in everything! It's a good fit.
When she walked the red carpet, she was still with Jenny, and this time Jenny was wearing a black evening dress, which was noble and elegant, and generous, but this dress also highlighted her proud curves, worthy of the name of "Gothic Rose".
The last time Ahn Woo-seo appeared with D.a, it attracted attention, and some people speculated that he was Jenny's boyfriend - this is different from South Korea, no one is looking for death and life because she has a boyfriend, it can only be said that the concept of East and West is different!
This time it was also the same appearance, of course, it was also the focus, after all, An Yuxi came from South Korea to attend the award ceremony, and reporters usually did not have the opportunity to interview him.
"Mr. An, what is your relationship with Jenny?"
"We're very good friends." An Yuxi replied.
"Is it boyfriend and girlfriend?"
"I hope it is!" Jenny pushed An Yuxi away and replied playfully.
"... Looking at Jenny who winked at him, An Yuxi was speechless.
didn't give the reporters much time to ask, An Yuxi left Jenny alone and left first...
"Hey~"
The host of this year's Grammy Awards is the famous American film and television singer "Queen" Latifah, this is still Mr. Colt commenting on the side, he knows that An Yuxi basically doesn't know these people, after all, she is not active here, she received a lot of applause as soon as she came on stage, and even An Yuxi made do with applause.
Unlike the previous awards, which were presented at the beginning of the performance category, because there were many Grammy awards, if the acting awards were awarded first, the award-winning singers would take turns to perform on stage, which would relax the tense atmosphere, but this time it was not, and the atmosphere at the beginning was solemn!
This time, the Grammy jury awarded the "Album of the Year" award to Ray Charles's "geniusLovescompany", who passed away in June last year. B female singer Alicia. Keys teamed up with Jamie Fox, who played Charles in the musical film "Ray," and performed Charles' 1960 Grammys "GeorgiaOnmymind" to orchestral accompaniment under the orchestra conducted by producer Quincy Jones.
Listening to this song quietly, watching this performance, the audience was quiet, listening carefully and appreciating, Colt who was sitting next to An Yuxi also shed deep tears, An Yuxi knew Ray Charles, not only because he was the idol of Mr. Colt.
The reason why An Yuxi knew him was because he saw a report in late May last year, which was Ray Charles's review of the song "Soul", he said that this song is "a song that touches people and can soothe people's souls", saying that his song has the shadow of soul music, and it is because of his comment that his song began to become famous, but unfortunately this old man died in June.
For the elderly, An Yuxi is always very respectful, because there are several old men in his family, especially the old man who praises himself, even more so, he doesn't like others to praise him, except for the old man.
It's a pity that I didn't get to see this legendary person, it's a lifelong regret!
It can be said that Charles's life is an inspirational novel, and now his deeds have been remade into a movie.
As far as Ann knows, Ray Charles, who lost his sight at the age of 7, has overcome all the hardships of life and eventually achieved great success, a legendary figure in the history of American music, who can even be regarded as a champion of black music.
Charles's greatest contribution to popular music was that he combined the spirit of gospel music he had learned in black churches with the melancholy blues music to create a new genre of music: "Psionics" – for which he is revered as the "Father of Psionics" in the United States.
After signing with Atlantic Records in 1950, Ray Brown. Charles' first sensational song, "I Have a Woman," is known as the first truly black American song.
Ray Charles won the Grammy Award, the highest honor in American pop music, 13 times, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986, one of the first people to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Rolling Stone magazine named him 10th among the "100 Greatest Artists". Frank Sinatra called him "the only genius in music" and received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award back in 1987.
If there are any music superstars to compare to, it is musicians like Elvis Presley and the Beatles who have influenced a generation.
It can be said that some people are legends after they die, but they are already legends when they are alive.
It can be said that being nominated with such a person, as a musician, is also an honor for An Yuxi! An Yuxi was reverent and convinced.
I don't know who said that "it is precisely because there are examples in the world that our earthly life is occasionally illuminated by otherworldly light." Ahn agrees with this statement, and he now admires many legends and is in awe.
Of course, ordinary life is not always full of great suffering, and trivial and small troubles are always there, making us feel biting unhappiness all the time, which is where the joy of our life lies.
Coincidentally, there are only two nominations for this deceased music master and him, that is, "Album of the Year" and "Record of the Year", "Album of the Year" was taken away, An Yuxi has no illusions about "Record of the Year", it is estimated that there are three candidates left, including Jenny, they are not under illusions, An Yuxi seems to look in the direction of Art telepathically, and he also smiled at this, sure enough...
Before this, An Yuxi thought that his song "soul" would be classified into the soul category, but he didn't expect to be classified into the pop category, at this time he was very grateful to the recording association, if he was really assigned to the soul category, then he really had no hope...
As the awards progressed, the atmosphere gradually livened up, followed by the Best Show awards in each category, with Arthur receiving Ramp; B's Best Performance Award, D.a won the Best Rock Performance Award, and performed "Bye_Bye_beautiful" to bring the atmosphere of the entire awards ceremony to the fullest**, and then it's time to announce the first award, "Best Newcomer of the Year"!
Of the five nominations for "Newcomer of the Year", the most threatening of them all is Magic Red, but who knows what will happen! No one knows except for the presenters who are now holding an envelope in their hands, because the final list of winners of the awards is only Deloitteamp in advance; The staff of Touche Accounting Firm who is responsible for managing the envelopes had the opportunity to know. It wasn't until the moment the envelope was opened at the awards ceremony that the results were revealed. It is precisely because of such strict secrecy measures that the Grammys are more suspenseful and hopeful - so many people are nervously fidgeting before the announcement of the winners, and it is not surprising that the audience is full of joyful and crying after knowing that they have won!
Although it is said that there is no hope, An Yuxi's heart still can't help but dance very fast, as if he is beating a drum, but he is not restless, and even his expression has not changed in the slightest, even when he sings, his expression will not change, even if it is the kind of hysterical song to be sung, he is still the same, his expression will not change much, giving people a feeling of effortlessness and ease, his performance has also been named by good deeds, called "An's singing".
In fact, otherwise, this is all the fault of his previous life, he has always kept in mind a sentence - "Those who have thunder in their chests and face like a peaceful lake can be generals", and have always pursued it as a golden rule...
"The 47th Grammy Awards Best Newcomer of the Year-"
Award presenters generally like to hang their appetites, no matter where they are, An Yuxi stared at the award presenter, and he still cared about it very much. At this time, the left shoulder sank, An Yuxi turned his head, it was Teacher Colt, and Teacher Heider also nodded to him, An Yuxi also nodded, took a few deep breaths, and his heart was a little settled, although he was prepared, but it was difficult not to be excited on this occasion, this is not a certificate of award at the end of the semester, this is a Grammy!
"The winner of the 47th Grammy Awards Best Newcomer of the Year is Anyixi! Congratulations! ”
"Wow~" The audience suddenly seemed to be a pot of boiling water, boiling, although I knew that it was possible that this Chinese singer from Asia won this award, but the audience couldn't help but exclaim, talking about it, and fell into a riot for a while, obviously also frightened a lot, can't accept this result, how is it possible? I didn't expect the Grammys to really dare to award the award to a Chinese singer!
“good_boy! (Good boy). Uncle Heider couldn't help laughing when he heard this result, and he was relieved, he didn't expect that his disciple would win the Grammy Award with his own strength! There was no hope at all before! After all, this is a very exclusive Grammy!
Colt also smiled from ear to ear, his eyes narrowed, and Haider hugged one, and then hugged An Yuxi, congratulations, four big hands patted An Yuxi's shoulders painfully, D.a's 5 guys simply gave up their seats to greet them, and An Yuxi also smiled from ear to ear and hugged his friends one by one.
"I actually won the prize!"
