People have just witnessed the strong recovery momentum of rock and roll, and they have already seen the prototype of a rock dynasty that belongs to glory to death, which is incredible. From "Young Volcano" (Young. Volcanoes)" to "Sail" to "Long. Long。 Way。 To。 Go)", winning the championship for 24 consecutive weeks, such a miracle is also unique in the long history of music; Coupled with the momentum of the "Storm" album, it can be said that in the past six months, there has been only glory to death and glory to death in the entire North American music market.

"The Long Road" didn't slow down after successfully reaching the top of the championship, and then won the championship for three consecutive weeks, extending the glory to death until 27 weeks, and finally was blown away by Daddy's hot single "Can't. Nobody。 Hold。 Me。 Down)" pulled down the horse and fixed the momentum on the set of numbers "twenty-seven".

It also set a new record in the history of North American Billboard in which a single artist or band dominated the singles chart for weeks, and it wasn't until 2009 that anyone came close to this all-time record, with the Black Eyed Peas. Eyed。 Pea) with two number one singles, "Bang Bang Gun (Boom. Boom。 Pow)" and "I have a hunch (I. Gotta。 Feeling)" teamed up to dominate the championship list for 26 weeks, but unfortunately they were unable to match or even break the glory of glory to death, and only ranked second in history.

In the second week of April, Daddy Braggart's single ended Glory to Death's 27-week reign on the singles charts, and was dubbed "the cornerstone of the rock dynasty" by "The Rolling Stones", who had always been a blind spectator of glory to death.

Even though "The Long Road" retired from the championship, the three singles "Young Volcano", "Sailing" and "Long Road" were still hovering in the top 20, and "Young Volcano" also set a new record by finishing in the top 10 for 26 consecutive weeks.

Three singles teamed up to dedicate 27 consecutive weeks to the title, and one album dominated 37 weeks unshakable...... This is the rock dynasty created by Glory to Death in the past six months, halfway through 1997, although Hugo disappeared in front of the media after the "Storm" tour, and even during the "L.A. Confidential" crew, he rarely communicated with the media, but he was still active in this way for a long time, moving towards his dream step by step.

People are debating when the fourth single of "Tempest" will be released, and whether it will be able to reach the top again after its release? People are talking about whether they can take another step after 37 consecutive weeks of "stormy rain" - this small step is a giant leap for the giants of history?

Therefore, at the "Perfect" opening ceremony, the reporter almost in an embarrassed way, couldn't wait to interview Hugo, wanted to know his thoughts from Hugo's mouth for the first time, and even ignored James and Jack, the two bigwigs in the entertainment industry who were also present.

You can accuse reporters of being rude, but there's no way to get angry. Because even people who have nothing to do with music will inevitably have curiosity: this is the real national prosperity since 1984, and even "Independence Day" is slightly inferior to it - after all, "Independence Day" box office is all about 20 weeks, but "Storm" has occupied the focus of attention for nine months, and rock 'n' roll has been brewing since "Don't Mind" in 1992 - it is worth mentioning that "Don't Mind" also set a record at this time, It has been on the Billboard album chart for two hundred and seventy-one consecutive weeks, ranking among the top 15 in history.

But even so, when the Honor to Death group arrived at NBC to record tonight's "Tonight Show," they saw the audience at the door that filled the entire street, and it still felt all too incredible. Compared with the crowds at the concert site, the shock of this scene is definitely not inferior, because this is not a concert, just an ordinary street, a street with a sense of life, but at this time the street is already unrecognizable.

More than 3,000 people completely blocked the surrounding four streets, raised their heads, the skyscrapers around were wrapped in transparent glass, and the dense human heads behind the glass completely filled the sight, as if the whole world was human, that terrible illusion made people have an indescribable sense of suffocation, and the heat wave on the face ignited the air, as if the Big Apple was about to be unable to bear it and exploded.

The off-road vehicle in which Glory to Death rode for almost thirty minutes in a sea of people before he was able to enter the underground parking lot, even Neil couldn't help but sigh, "This seems even crazier than the Maracana." ”

The Maracanã, that epoch-making moment, started the rock dynasty of 1997.

This is the first time that the members of the band Honor to Death have appeared collectively on the "Tonight Show", or more accurately, it is the first time that the band has appeared collectively on a talk show. Prior to this, in fact, Glory to Death had always insisted on taking the touring route, and even if he participated in the show, most of them were radio programs, and a few news interview programs. But this time, the media can't easily let go of the glory to death, and EMI Records' Roger Farson has been negotiating with Henry since the Grammys, which led to this "Tonight Show".

Under Hugo's introduction, the members briefly greeted Jay Reno, but Jay was about to leave soon, because the reporters waiting at the door had already lost their patience. After Jay left, the members of Glory to Death walked out under the guidance of the staff, Hugo originally thought that he would enter a waiting room for an interview, but he didn't expect to enter the studio directly, Hugo couldn't help but be stunned.

Neil looked at it carefully, froze, and whispered, "All of these are reporters?" The tone seemed to say: Are these people crazy?

I saw that the audience in front of me was full of more than 300 people, but it seemed that none of these 300 people were spectators, but all of them were reporters. Even the biggest press conference was not so sensational, and on both sides of the auditorium, there were still many staff members crowded with them, and the NBC TV crew even turned on the cameras to record the historic moment.

Such a scene is reminiscent of Michael Jackson's "shudder" back then.

Hugo felt that this was a bit ridiculous, and he did not dare to hope that his music could be compared to Michael in his lifetime, and the 100 million and 4 million sales record of "Trembling" aside, the inspiration of this album for the entire music industry, the transformation of the entire pop music, is unimaginable. But now...... But he really felt that powerful power, and he couldn't stop it.

But in fact, regardless of the historical status, there is still a big gap between the current sales data and social impact of "Storm" and "Trembling", and Hugo did not feel that "Storm" can be compared with "Trembling". So, looking at the surging crowd in front of him, Hugo had an indescribable sense of banter, a little funny, a little ridiculous, a little flattered, and a little inexplicable.

The five members of Honor to Death stood in front of the audience, each with a large handful of microphones in their hands, and then the interview began, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a short interview, right?" Hugo's half-joking complaint made everyone at the scene chuckle, but the reporters were cheeky and unmoved.

Although it is said to be an interview with a reporter, in fact, there is not much new in the content, and there are some official questions over and over again, "Did Glory to Death expect this album to create such a historical record", "Do you think 'Storm' can surpass 'Trembling'", "How are you feeling now", "When will the next single be released", "Do you have any plans for a tour next year"...... All of these are probably asking about the experience of breaking records.

Almost all of today's questions were answered by Neil and Alfonso, and the two of them handled these official questions with ease. Although some questions will still go to Hugo, but there is not much new, Hugo dealt with it lightly, and then handed over the initiative to Neil and Alfonso. Despite this, the original 15-minute interview was still stretched to half an hour, and the reporters were still reluctant to leave, and NBC had to forcibly evacuate, otherwise the "Tonight Show" would not start recording for a while.

Reporters actually know that it is difficult to dig out the breaking point of this kind of short news interview, either looking forward to an appointment for an interview, or waiting for a while for the "Tonight Show", looking forward to the sparks between Glory to Death and Jie.

Jay Renaud is inevitably a little nervous today, he is very familiar with Hugo, the two can be said to be close friends, and today's interview should not be too worried, but Jay knows that today's "Tonight Show" is not just a talk show, but also the focus of everyone's attention: Glory to Death is likely to make history next week, and such moments do not happen every day.

So, Jay has been cooling down his brain and waiting for the show to start.

Listening to the sound of the director's countdown coming from the earbuds, Jie took a deep breath, then lowered his eyes, tried to relax himself, and then raised his head with the sound of the director stopping, with that familiar smile on the corner of his mouth, "Not long ago, my wife and I talked about a topic, saying what we can do in a minute, believe me, it's a very stupid topic, but the two of us chatted with great interest." We found that one minute was far greater than we thought. ”

Jay comfortably changed his position and said lightly, "Yesterday someone talked to me about something similar, about what we can do in thirty-seven weeks, I thought thirty-seven weeks was a long time, but when I think about it, it feels very brief, because it's not even a year, it's only one-forty-seventh of my life. But today, some people tell us with practical actions that 37 weeks is the length of a period of history. ”

Immediately, Jie took the initiative to stand up, "Let's welcome, glory to death!" ”
