Chapter 1113 1113 Historical moment

Many times, no one can predict history when it is created. Often, history is born in the moment when the time is right and the place is right, and it is not something that can be controlled or changed by man. Only when standing in the long river of time and looking back at that moment will you suddenly realize that history is created in this way. What is even more surprising is that history is actually the group of people who are created by these people many times and even completely unexpected.

That's what the 37th Grammys are.

The award ceremony continued, and the final winners of each award were found. Except for the strength of Babyface in the R&B department, all other departments showed an average trend, and no one could dominate the department. In the final award ceremony, only four comprehensive awards were left, which would be the final ** of the entire party.

The first award for the Best Newcomer of the Year continued the fierce competition and messy pattern of the previous session. The five newcomers who were nominated this year are Cher Crow, Green Day Band, Aisi Base, Fool Crash Test Band (crash.test.dum Band) and Crow Band (coun Ting.crows).

This reminds people of last year, Glory To Death, Blind Melon, Bright Melon, and three new metal rock bands were shortlisted for the Newcomer of the Year, but they all lost to R&B female singer Donnie Blyston.

This time, Aisi Base is a pop singing group, and Xueer Crow is divided into the pop genre, while Fool Crash Test and Crow are both new metal rock bands, and Green Day is a representative of the new punk and a part of the new metal rock wave.

Before the award ceremony, it was generally believed that Green Day Band should win the award, which is also an answer that can be perfectly explained from a professional perspective from a strength perspective. But the Grammy eventually awarded the Newcomer of the Year to Cher Crow, recreating the situation of the last Grammy.

There is no conclusion on whether Xueer is a popular category or a rock department, but Grammy awarded her the Newcomer of the Year Award, which is really intriguing.

Of course, there is no doubt that Xueer's first album is outstanding, but... it was only in 1994 that it should belong to Green Day. This time, Green Day once again repeated the cup of glory to death.

The subsequent Best Album of the Year Awards became unpopular again. After 30 years of debut and achieved countless glory, Tony Bennyton, who was comparable to Frank Sinatra, won the "MTV Unplugged" album, which really made the audience exclaim.

"MTV without plugging" is actually a live recording album of the MTV TV program. Strictly speaking, this is a type of concert album, and it cannot even be regarded as a regular album, but it is precisely this album that defeated powerful competitors and won the Best Album of the Year Award.

It’s not that Tony is not great enough, but that there are obviously better albums on the waitlist.

The other four competitors at the Best Album of the Year Award are "The World's Three Tenors 1994 Los Angeles Concert", "From. The Cradle", "Shiel (Sex Al.1994)" and "Bathing in the Morning Light".

"The Three Tenors in the World in 1994 Los Angeles Concert" naturally needs no more. Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo, and Jose Carreras' gold sign. This time they held a global tour, and Los Angeles was undoubtedly one of the most successful ones, so they released the concert album.

"In the Swading Clothes" comes from Eric Clapton, one of the world's top rock guitarists. He has joined the cream band, blind faith, Drake and Domino band (derek.and.the.do fan Nos), etc. He is one of the pinnacle characters who first created the rock wave. His guitar skills have influenced generations of rock bands and are legendary in the history of rock music. In this album, he has the famous song "Tears.in.heaven" to mourn Eric's four-and-a-half-year-old son who died in an accident.

The album "Shiel 1994" is the second album of British rock singer Shiel. He is also a pioneer in the new metal rock wave. He combines different styles such as soul, folk songs, dance music into rock and roll, making his own style. In this album, one of them has become an enduring classic work, "Kiss of the Rose (kiss.from.a.ro color).

Finally, there is "Bath in the morning light". The album of glory to death is considered to be the band's top work, and it is also a masterpiece that has truly entered the history of new metal rock. Not only are there ten excellent works in the album, but there have been many widely circulated classics, and there are also a classic "Beautiful Day" among the classics.

It can be said that the competition for the Best Album of the Year Award is very fierce, and Tony's final victory in "MTV Unplugged" is really a huge upset. Or conservative.

However, the unpopularity continues in the Grammys. In the competition for the Best Single of the Year, the boy-man group "I Will Be Tender with You", Bruce Springsteen's "Philadelphia Street", Bonnie Raitt's "Love is approaching quietly (love.sneakin'.up.on.temptation)", Cher Crow's "all.i.wanna.do), and a "beautiful day" that gloriously ends in death, launching extremely fierce competition.

Before the award ceremony, people are most optimistic about it. It is naturally the second duel between boys and men and the Glory to death. This is already the hottest confrontation in the second half of 1994. The Glory to death, which has always dominated and the boys and men who have never been discouraged, has continued the battlefield to the Grammy, which is really exciting.

But the Grammy disappointed everyone, because after Xueer won the Best Single of the Year award for the song "What I Think" again with the song "I Think", which fell below everyone's glasses. In addition to being unpopular, she also relied on two comprehensive awards and a Best Pop Female Singer trophy, becoming the biggest winner tonight.

This was something that no one could have expected before the award ceremony, glory to death, baby face, Donnie Blyston, four-person, boy-man combination, Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Sauce, Green Day Band... This series of singers created countless brilliant lists in 1994, but was stolen by the newcomer Cher who was born last year, continuing the momentum of Donnie's glorious Grammy last year. This was really... too unexpected.

Now, the 37th Grammy only has the last award for Best Production of the Year, which is the last suspense, but... people cannot hold more hope.

The Best Production Award of the Year is usually awarded last because it is the most important award for the Grammy. Although there are four comprehensive awards, unlike the general public who believe that the Best Album of the Year award will be the most important award, the Best Production Award of the Year award is the most competitive.

It is not because production is more important than the album as a whole, but because the Best Production Award of the Year is the only award in the entire Grammy to be awarded purely to the producer. This award praises the producers behind the scenes, not singers. The nominees participating in the award competition are songwriters, arrangement creators, and not singers.

This award reflects the most essential hard power of the creator himself. From another perspective, whether it is the best newcomer of the year, the best single of the year, or the best album of the year, they are actually produced by the producer behind the scenes, while the singer is the interpreter standing in front of the scenes. Therefore, the best production of the year can be regarded as a grand award, and the competition every year is particularly fierce.

The producers shortlisted for the top five this year are "What I Want" producers, including Cher Crowe; "Philadelphia Street" producers Bruce Springsteen, "Love Infinite Tonight" producers Elton John and Tim Rice (tim.dayce), "I Swear" producers Gary Baker and Frank Mayer (frank.j.meyers), and "Great Day" creator Hugo Lancaster.

From this list, we can find that the "I Swear" performed by the four-person sing is a cover song, so the Grammys praised the lyricist, not the four-person sing, nor the original singer of the song John Michael Montgomery. On the other hand, musicians with good singing and writing are always valued, with Cher, Blues, Elton and Hugo, all of whom are the creators of their own songs, so they have received more praise.

Finally, the original soundtrack of the movie received great attention. "Philadelphia Street" comes from the movie "Philadelphia Story", and "Love Infinite Tonight" comes from the "Lion King". In addition, at the end of the year, the "shape.of.my.heart" that achieved countless achievements in glory until death can show the close integration of movies and music today. This situation gradually disappeared after entering the 21st century. It is a typical profile of the decline in the quality of North American films and American music.

Among the five competitors of the best production of the year, except for "I Swear" that squeezed out the baby face of "I Will Be Tender with You" and was shortlisted for the award, which was considered a little unpopular. The competition among the other four songs can be said to be comparable, especially "Love Tonight" and "A Beautiful Day". These two songs are generally considered to be classic masterpieces that can shine throughout the 1990s.

However, there have been too many accidents in the Grammy tonight, and no one knows what will happen next.

The final award presenter Tony Bennyton pulled open the envelope in his hand, glanced, then raised an eyebrow in surprise, then smiled, and said to the microphone, "The winner of the 37th Grammy Best Production Award is, 'Good Day', Hugo Lancaster."

Boom! History was born like this. No one expected the birth of history, nor did anyone want to create history, but unlike all expected tracks, history was written at this moment: a stage performance from glory to death set off an unprecedented change on the Grammy stage; to the sound garden representing grunge and the sound garden first record on the Grammy stage; to the pearl sauce and the sound garden on the Grammy stage; to the glory to death unexpectedly win three trophies!
