The Grammy Awards ceremony has entered the ranks of the 47th this year. According to her age, she can be regarded as a **** aunt, but in the United States, everyone is more willing to call Grammy "grandmother" because she Status in the music industry is grandmother-level, and the Oscars are considered the grandfather of all awards shows.
The Grammy grandmother has her own unique preferences. In the past 47 awards ceremonies, there are not only Michael Jackson's feat of winning eight awards in a single session, but also the legendary musician who has won the favor of Grammys 25 times before and after. Steve Wanda, and Brian McKnight, who won sixteen nominations but never got a gramophone.
Above the Grammys, there are singers who are loved by thousands, and there are singers who cannot be affirmed in their entire lives. Backstreet Boys, Super Boys, and Britney Spears were the most popular and all-time idols. The singer has never been appreciated by the Grammys. Guns N' Roses was once the most popular rock band in the world, but even at their best, they failed to win a gramophone trophy. Not to mention Lord Stewart, who is already in his 60s this year. He has been popular since the 1970s, but he has never been recognized above the Grammys. .
Similarly, there must be those who are disappointed, there must be those who are proud. At the Grammy Awards ceremony, the u2 band from the British Isles is the darling of their part. Every time they are shortlisted for the Grammys, they will not return empty-handed. The forty-fifth Grammy awards rate has reached an astonishing 100%, and they are completely invincible at the Grammy Awards. Now, Evan Bell can be added to the list of Grammy favorites.
Following the forty-four, forty-five, and forty-six three consecutive Grammy wins. Not long after the forty-seventh Grammy Awards began, Evan Bell made a successful start. In the heat of competition for the best male R&B singer. Won his first gramophone trophy of the year! This also means that Evan Bell has already recorded trophies for four consecutive sessions.
Evan Bell was shortlisted for this award with "Old Love Is Dead (.. Originally, Evan Bell thought that this song would be classified in the classical pop or rock department, but did not expect Grammy to put it in the category in the rhythm and blues department. The four singers who competed with Evan Bell were R. Kelly, Usher, "Prince" Prince, and Brian McKnight.
in this list of nominees. Brian McKnight has won more than a dozen nominations but has never won a single Grammy. This time the media is still not optimistic about him, because he is facing an extremely powerful opponent. Putting aside R. Kelly, who has been in a low point in recent years, Usher, Evan Bell and Prince are the real competitors.
Prince was already very popular. It made a successful comeback last year. Gained industry recognition; Needless to say, Usher was shortlisted for the song "Burning", extending the September battle with "Old Love Is Dead" to the Grammys. Most people think that this is still the battle between Usher and Evan Bell. These two rivals have been competing since June 2004 and have continued to the present. And this time. The winner is still Evan Bell!
Alicia Keys had just finished her performance on stage, and Evan Bell had not had time to speak to the members of the Reds who had just returned to their seats. Hearing the news that he had won the award, Evan Bell could only hug Adam Levy and others before walking onto the stage with the sound of congratulations.
Taking his thirteenth gramophone from the presenter Nelly, Evan Bell walked to the microphone, "Well, I didn't expect this award to come so quickly, which caught me by surprise. Please wait. , let me find the small note for my acceptance speech." After Evan Bell finished, he really searched in his trouser pocket, and there was already low laughter from the audience. After searching for a while, Evan Bell waved his empty hand helplessly, "I think maybe I was left on the coffee table last night. You know, I have to practice more, otherwise I will be so nervous that I forget the words." The laughter was uncontrollable and burst out completely.
Evan Bell, who was standing on the stage, was still very calm, "Very good, I will try to think about this list." Evan Bell glanced at the gramophone in his hand, which was a wonderful feeling. There are already twelve gramophone trophies at Eleven Princes Street, which is not uncommon for Evan Bell, but even so, holding this trophy in his hand again, Evan Bell can still feel the passion in his chest , "Damn, my thank you list..." Evan Bell raised his head and complained in a low voice, making the laughter louder in the audience, "Well, let me say something else." With the appearance of giving up the thank you list, no matter how nervous and serious people are, they can't help but laugh at this time.
"When I wrote the song 'Old Love Is Dead', I was thinking, will this song be loved by the audience? Would it be too weird, or would it be too heavy? "Evan Bell calmly stood in front of the microphone, the phonograph trophy in his hand waving lightly in the air with his movements." Later, I gave up this idea, and I told myself: It's up to him. Everyone Everyone has their own taste in music, everyone has their own type of music, and I think that's where the so-called music market comes from. If you want to make music to cater to the music market, then I really don't think I should make albums anymore. Because I I have always believed that music is a bridge of emotional communication, and I hope my music can build this bridge between me and the audience, rather than simply asking them to pay for my music. Of course, the act of paying is still necessary of."
Evan Bell's flying stroke was very abrupt in the serious words, making everyone in the audience dumbfounded.
"At a fan signing, there was a ninety-two-year-old lady, hi, Annie, hi, Amanda." Evan Bell waved to the camera, referring to the last time he met at the autograph meeting. To her grandson, Anne-French, "she told me that my music touched her and reminded her of the frivolous years of her youth. It was a huge affirmation for me, Anne, I want to make use of today's I tell you on this occasion that it is my honor to be able to move you. Thank you."
After Evan Bell finished speaking, he waved to the camera again, then turned and left.
Although Evan Bell walked off the stage, his acceptance speech won thunderous applause from the audience. Without exception, everyone stood up and applauded.
This acceptance speech is very special, and Evan Bell chose to deliver it in the rhythm and blues department, which is even more meaningful. You know, rhythm and blues is the so-called mainstream of the market in the past two years. And Evan Bell has now said directly: the market orientation should not be the music orientation, the music that caters to the market orientation may be able to create good commercial results, but only music that truly comes from the heart can impress the audience. There is pop and there is music. This is the scene that the entire music market should have.
At this time, Amanda French, sitting at her home in Los Angeles, watched the TV with tears in her eyes. Her grandmother, Anne French, was already in bed, but Amanda French knew that if her grandmother knew, Evan Bell expressed her sincere gratitude at an awards ceremony watched by tens of millions. How excited. Listening to that sentence, "It's my honor to be able to move you", Amanda French's eyes couldn't help but get wet. In the current music market, how many people are still making music for music's sake? And the back that turned away on the center stage at Staples Stadium was one of them.
Backstage, Evan Bell met U2 who was preparing to perform on stage. Bono and Evan Bell gave an aerial high-five and gave him a thumbs up to express their appreciation.
Bono has always been fond of Evan Bell. Although the two do not meet much, Bono has expressed his appreciation for Evan Bell in the media many times. And every time they meet at the Grammys, the two sides always have a good conversation. There is a kind of friend like this. There is no communication or dialogue, but they can achieve the purpose of communication through hobbies and music and art, and then become friends.
However, since u2 was about to perform on stage, Evan Bell and Bono didn't have time to say more, and walked directly into the waiting room. In the waiting room, everything was going on in an orderly manner at this time, the actors who were about to perform on the stage stood on one side Evan Bell also saw Penello, who was about to appear on stage for a while. P. Cruz. Evan Bell immediately smiled and waved to Penelope Cruz. Penelope Cruz is now gnashing his teeth at Evan Bell and doesn't want to pay attention to him at all, so he just turned his head away .
Evan Bell didn't mind either, and when he turned around, he saw the Green Sun band that he wanted to meet just now. For this twenty-five-year-old punk band, Evan Bell has always liked it. For most fans, a song "American Stupid" made them really know Green Day. This song is completely satirizing the US government, expressing their dissatisfaction with the war, and injecting humanity into the punk vent. Caring, which also makes the song appear more desolate and helpless in addition to the emotional noise.
Evan Bell also got to know the band through the song "American Stupid". In his last life, he had rummaged through their previous albums and listened to them very much. Being able to meet at the Grammy Awards today, it is natural to get to know each other. For Evan Bell, it is a great pleasure to be able to communicate with these wonderful musicians.
