Chapter 1614: Historical Prologue
72_72291 Twenty years later, Mellelyn Dixon still remembers September 23, 1996, which is a day that will go down in history, thus opening the prelude to the mighty music market, and one of the most exciting, exciting and beautiful days of her life.
Fifteen hours ahead of schedule, Melerin took her tent to the Tower on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles. records).
Originating in Sacramento in 1960, this record store has become one of the largest record store chains in the United States after just over 30 years of development, with 89 stores in the United States and branches in more than 20 countries and regions overseas, which is one of the symbols of the prosperity of the traditional record industry.
On September 23, Taoer Records will become one of the participants in this showdown of the century.
Melerin knew that this showdown of the century was bound to attract global attention, so she came to the scene early to line up, but even so, when she arrived at the scene, there were already more than 100 people in front of her, which made Melerin stunned, she thought she was early enough, she didn't expect that there would be so many enthusiastic and crazy fans.
After asking the first person, I found out that he had actually started queuing at the door of Tao'er Record Store at 8 o'clock in the morning on the 22nd, and he had been a doorman at the door of the record store all day today. Luckily, the first to arrive on the scene was the young Volcano, and although Melerin didn't know him, that didn't stop them from becoming friends.
At present, among the crowd queuing at the entrance of Taoer Records, there are fans of glory to death, fans of Oasis Band, and fans of Mariah Carey, and it can be seen that everyone is full of energy to support their idols, hoping that idols can have the last laugh in this showdown of the century.
In fact, you don't have to rush to buy a single at all, because the single will always be on the shelves after that, avoid the crowds on the first day, and wait until later to show your support to the record store, which is also a way to do it. So, in the eyes of many, queuing up on the site on the first day is a waste of time, not to mention such a stupid and childish act as staying up all night.
But for real fans, it is very important to be able to start the single as soon as possible, and to be able to express their support for their idols in the most direct way for the first time, which is not only a heart, a support, but also a passion.
The process of waiting in line is a kind of happiness in itself, a youth. Supporting your idols, communicating with like-minded strangers, the tiredness of waiting all night, and the excitement of being bitter and willing to do so are all memorable moments in your life's journey.
Perhaps, when looking back on youth years later, the mature mind will tell itself that the all-night queue is just to buy an album, and that such an action is too childish, even stupid, to make no sense. But recalling the enthusiasm and madness of youth, a smile will involuntarily appear on the corner of the mouth, and the album buried deep in the memory will only make this stupid and childish memory become a bright light embellished with youth.
Melerin was one of them, and just by looking at the pomp and circumstance of the queue, she was already getting excited, and she couldn't wait to roll up her sleeves and join this crazy showdown of the century as soon as possible.
Back in their tents, it won't be long before Sally Hansen, Meredith Morris and Kayla Cole are all over for the four girls to gather for an exciting and long night.
"I can't wait now, ahhhhhhh Sally screamed impatiently, her dripping black eyes glinting with excitement. "I'm going to buy three singles, one for listening to on weekdays, one for my best friend, and one for my collection!"
"It's finally going to be released! I've been looking forward to this single since the release of 'Bathing in the Morning Light', and who knows, it's been two years! I can't wait! Meredith also suppressed the excitement in her heart and tried to speak calmly, but her bright eyes revealed the turbulence in her heart at the moment.
"Can you imagine how spectacular it would be if Glory to Death sang this song live, and all of us joined in to cheer as if it were a real volcanic eruption?" Kayla also actively joined the discussion, "with a special brand of glory to death, humming out the call of our hearts, and even with our eyes closed, we can feel the lyrics flowing in our ears." Hugo always had such an ability! ”
At present, EMI Records has only announced the name of the first single of the third album of Glory to Death - "Young Volcano (Young. voloes)", other than that, everything is still under wraps, but just that's enough to arouse the endless enthusiasm of the fans, and the expectations have broken the table!
The song "Young Volcano" first came out at the sensational press conference of "Bathing in the Morning Light", when Hugo took all the fans to hit the beat together, and then created this song, which wrote history in the long river of music, and also became a moment when the image of glory to death was deeply imprinted in the minds of listeners.
What's more, since then, the young volcano has truly been born and has become an unwavering supporter of glory to death!
However, at that time, "Young Volcano" had just been created and was not included in the album "Bathing in the Morning Light", and EMI Records did not take the opportunity to release a special edition of "Bathing in the Morning Light" that included this song, and everyone knew that this single was bound to be included in the third album, but they didn't expect that the wait would be two years.
It can be said that the song "Young Volcano" has an extremely important role for fans who are glorious to death, and its irreplaceable status even surpasses that of "Wonderwall" and "Don't be upset about the past." look。 ba。 anger)" and other songs, because this song belongs to the young volcanoes, it is the most intimate memory between them and glory to death, and it is also a unique bridge between them and glory to death.
It's a pity that although the new album release of "Bathing in the Morning Light" was held simultaneously in 24 cities across the United States, creating a new history of music conferences; But there are still many people who have not heard this song, and at a time when the Internet is still underdeveloped, people have no way to record this song and spread it on the Internet. So, many young volcanoes haven't even really heard the song.
EMI Records has clearly taken great pains to select "Young Volcano" as the first single on the new album "Glory to Death", not only to mobilize the enthusiasm of all fans, but also to keep the third album as secret as possible, "Young Volcano" is one of only two people know about the third album, and the "long" that Hugo once wrote on "The Tonight Show". long。 way。 to。 go)" is also bound to join the album.
This kind of strict secrecy has always kept people curious and expectant about the three albums of Glory to Death, which has begun to pave the way for the release of the next album.
"Wow, we can contact Joshua and Liam, organize events in major cities, and when we buy the single, we will show the power of our young volcano on the main streets of each city!" Melerin spoke excitedly.
Today, it's not just Mellelyn and others lining up at Tao'er Records in Los Angeles, in fact, Young Volcano has organized grand events in 36 cities across the United States, and each city has a director, Joshua Cranston, Liam Pinkman and Eli Casvi are stationed in New York, the largest city in the United States, to organize all the young volcanoes together and contribute to the sales frenzy of the first day.
In 36 cities across the United States, the organizers of Young Volcano alone have mobilized nearly 200 people, and more than 40,000 fans have been able to rally at present---this is only the members of the Young Volcano Organization, and there are many other loyal fans who have been honored to death and have not necessarily joined Young Volcano--just like the boy who is the first in the queue at Tao'er Records today, it is foreseeable that tomorrow there will be a hurricane in the United States, and they are the creators of this hurricane.
Melerin was excitedly thinking about the next support event, but a slightly restrained voice came from the side, "Sorry to disturb you," Meleleline and the other four girls turned their heads to look at it together, which made the curly-haired boy embarrassed for a moment, but still stammered, "You mentioned the song 'Young Volcano', it seems that you have all heard it, what the hell is going on?" ”
The boy in front of him had golden curly hair, he looked very young, even younger than Sally, who was only sixteen years old this year, with a thin face with a green beard, and he could vaguely see the contours of his beautiful facial features.
At this time, the girl standing next to him took a small half step forward, the baby's fat cheeks were dyed with two reds, and the green eyebrows were like a budding flower bone, faintly exuding a bright halo, "We like glory to death, to be precise, I am simply crazy for Hugo, but we have not participated in the great cause of glory to death before." I heard you guys chatting just now - I'm really sorry we overheard, but the content of your words really made us too curious, and we wanted to know more about the glory to death, so Justin asked, if there was an offense, I was really sorry. ”
The girl's words were spoken quickly, and you could clearly feel the excitement flowing through her body, and the curvature of Meleline's mouth rose even more towards the corners of the girl's mouth, "God, believe me, if you know the details of glory to death, you will fall madly in love with them, I mean, everyone, crazy, like losing your mind." ”
Meleline's words made the boy's and girl's faces instantly brighten
