1762.Chapter 1762 1762 Will be Lingding
It will be the top of the mountain, and the mountains will be seen at a glance.
When the 39th Grammy ended, this was the best adjective for Glory to Death, not only because Glory to Death won eight gramophone trophies in one fell swoop, tied the record held by Michael Jackson that year, and tied for the most awarded singer in a single Grammy in history; is not only because the album "Storm" has become the third work to sell more than 10 million in North America with the trend of devastating and decaying, creating a record that countless classic legendary singers have not been able to achieve; also swept the rock department on the Grammys and dominated the overall awards because of glory to death, pushing the momentum of rock in the North American market to the peak.
The '70s were called the golden age of rock 'n' roll, not because a band or singer dominated the market, but because of the ubiquity of top rock musicians, all of which culminated in 1977, and the whole market was filled with rock and roll – and it was a succession of masterpieces and classics.
It is because of this that even the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Pink Floyd, at their peak, did not really achieve domination of the entire market – neither in terms of sales nor awards. The competition back then was unimaginable.
The reason why the 90s is called the revival of rock and roll is not that the entire market has re-embraced rock, but that it has regained its vitality driven by a small group of top rock musicians. From Nirvana, Pearl Sauce, to Glory to Death, Pumpkin Crushing, to Radiohead, Goatskin, and Oasis, it all reached its peak in 1996, and the showdown of the century between Glory to Death and Oasis detonated the entire market.
The history created by the 39th Grammys is a height that no rock legend has been able to reach, and the eight trophies in a single edition, even after twenty years, no one can break it, but this does not mean that Glory to Death has surpassed countless legends, it is just a ticket to the Hall of Glory for Death.
But one thing is for sure, Glory to Death opened up the rock 'n' roll scene in the midst of the woes of the nineties, and even changed the landscape of the entire market, a feat comparable to Elvis Pressley.
In the 90s music market dominated by pop, rhythm and blues, country, and hip-hop, rock and roll is already dying, although the rock that has lost its vitality is still profound, the rock forces led by guns and roses, Bonnie Ritter, and U2 bands are still not to be underestimated. But in fact, traditional rock has been difficult to keep up with the rapid pace of music development, and is gradually on the verge of being eliminated.
This is the inevitability of history, and the emergence of new things is accompanied by the elimination of old things. The advent of punk in 1977 was the result of the course of history; The same was true of the advent of grunge in 1992.
It's a pity that the maverick Nirvana band, the self-done Alice prisoner, and the low-key and focused sound garden all lack further appeal, especially the early death of Kurt Cobain, which made the Nirvana band, which has the strongest mass base, lose its core and disappear directly like a bubble, which makes the Pearl Sauce band lonely. It has never been possible to take grunge to a whole new level.
However, the emergence of grunge rock still made the entire North American market begin to recover, and at such a critical moment, the new metal rock came into being, this rock genre is more diverse, more accessible, more youthful, under the leadership of glory to death, the fusion of traditional rock technology and modern music characteristics, so that rock and roll rejuvenated.
In particular, it is worth mentioning the lead singer of Glory to Death, Hugo, who is not only a band lead singer, but also a successful film actor. The advantage of popularity has made Glory to Death quickly accumulate a lot of attention, which has also laid an irreplaceable foundation for the new metal rock to change the market pattern.
The reason why 1993 is called the second heyday of rock and roll is because of the competition between grunge, neo-metal rock and traditional rock forces in this year, and the emergence of excellent works in an endless stream, and even gave birth to albums such as "almost famous", which made new metal rock officially appear on the stage of history - just like 1977 when punk appeared on the stage of history, so people call 1993 the second awakening of rock and roll, not 1992.
The huge success of "Bathing in the Morning Light" shook the foundations of the entire North American music market with an unstoppable momentum, and the impact even began to radiate around the world, reawakening people's enthusiasm for rock and roll. In this situation, 1996 arrived, and the showdown between "Storm" and "Stay Here" pushed the resurgence of rock to its peak, and the showdown between Glory to Death and Oasis band touched the nerves of almost everyone in the younger generation, and truly implanted influence in the minds of the next generation.
It can be said that the 39th Grammy Awards ceremony is an inevitable part of the historical process, because this will also be the trajectory of the next historical development. The eight-seat phonograph is a footnote to history.
History always seems to have similarities, with Pressley Elvis bringing rock to the spotlight in 1954, and within a decade or so, the genre took the world by storm; Glory to Death brought rock back to the top in 1996, only this time the heyday of rock and roll would soon arrive.
Glory to death became not only the best winner of the Grammys that night, but also the leader who led history into a different future. Twenty years later, or even half a century later, when people mention the musical glory of the 90s, everyone will sigh that it was an era of glory to death, an era of color, and an era of witnessing miracles.
Everyone knows exactly what history has been made by glory to death, and the eight gramophone trophies of the Grammys are just one of the superficial phenomena, and the Grammys' grasp of the entire market context is the core part.
In fact, after the awards ceremony, Glory to Death left Los Angeles the next day and continued to plunge into the "Stormy" world tour, as if last night's noise and revelry were just a dream, leaving the boiling Americans behind, flying across the Atlantic, and starting their own journey again.
But the North American continent has been completely turned upside down.
According to official data from CBS, an average of 52.33 million viewers tuned in to watch the awards ceremony that night, including 24.71 million viewers between the ages of 18 and 49! That was a new Grammy all-time high, surpassing Michael Jackson's sweep in 1984, when 51.67 million viewers tuned in to watch that record night. This is also the only two ceremonies since the Grammys broadcast with an average rating of more than 50 million.
This is undoubtedly a win for the entire market. Thanks to the topical effect generated by the troika of the battle of the century, the 39th Grammys have already attracted a lot of attention in the nomination stage, and the news that Glory to Death has confirmed its attendance at the last minute has completely exploded the enthusiasm of all audiences.
On the night of the Grammys, the appearance of Michael Jackson and Ray Charles was undoubtedly the biggest surprise, and it also became the focus of heated discussions in the media. However, the highest-rated moment at the awards ceremony was created by Glory to Death, and Hugo won the Best Production of the Year award - a moment that really surprised everyone, and this moment attracted 61.81 million viewers, which is also the second time in the history of Grammy broadcasts that the number of viewers has exceeded 60 million in an instant, which is simply staggering.
In addition, the moment when Glory to Death won the Best Album of the Year award to equalle Michael's history, and the moment when Glory to Death won the first Best Rock Band Award of the night, the ratings were among the top five.
The appeal of glory to death can be seen - they have reached the height of Michael Jackson's time, and have had an impact on the entire North American society and North American culture, especially the viewing group from the age of 18 to 49 is the main audience, affecting a whole generation.
The ratings were just a snapshot of last night's carnival, and the next day's front page headlines in newspapers and magazines were even more lively. According to incomplete statistics, a total of 233 media outlets in the United States on that day made headlines about the glory of winning eight gramophones to death, and even the "Washington Post" and "New York Times," which have always focused on serious news, were no exception.
Not to mention the thousands, tens of thousands of radio stations, indiscriminately and non-stop bombardment, the album "Storm" once again ascended to the top of the topic - the sales that had already exploded with infinite energy actually climbed again, and the momentum of destruction and decay is simply endless.
Glory to death is the only focus, the only focus, everyone else is completely reduced to a foil, whether it is Maria, or the Oasis Band, no one cares about their loss and regret, because everyone can't wait to join in this carnival and can't wait to be a part of this history.
It can be said that Glory to Death has indeed reached the top of the North American music scene, and the strong momentum has made people see the glory of the Beatles again - this is the real reappearance of the Beatles, even if it is not an exaggeration to describe this feast in any language, which also makes the tickets for the third phase of the "Storm" North American tour more popular, and the ticket sales have not even started, and the call for additional performances has been overwhelming.
From the award sweep of "Death Row Walk", to the box office sweep of "Independence Day", to the global sweep of "Storm...... Inadvertently, Hugo is ushering in his heyday, and this is also an unprecedented situation, not even Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra or any of the top superstars in Hollywood's golden age can have the strong influence of Hugo today.
"Every move can affect the interests of half of Hollywood", this sentence is used to describe Hugo without any exaggeration. It is not surprising that the Berlin Film Festival came out not long ago, but now Hollywood is still struggling to pursue Hugo, trying to make a fortune from Hugo's cash cow, but Hugo is very wise to devote himself to the "stormy" tour, out of the whirlpool of fame and fortune in Hollywood, but to win a moment of purity.
