Chapter 1250 Absolute Hot Spot
"The band's talented and exciting performance on August 31 stuns the Grammy!"
"The first official public performance in their career, on August 31st the band proved with real materials why they can sweep across the European continent."
"Beyoncé opens the show with a bang, but the band shines on Grammy night on August 31st."
"New Artist of the Year. Album of the Year. The band became the biggest Grammy winner on August 31st."
"Anson Wood: Is he really just a vase?"
Amazement, admiration, cheer——
In the bustling place, there was a heat wave, and all the headline keywords in the news media across the North American continent were rushing towards the band on August 31st.
Not only that, media from all over the world have also paid attention to it.
"August 31st leads the rock revival craze."
"The 46th Grammy Awards have come to an end, and rock music has re-entered the public consciousness."
"Grammy ratings hit a 20-year high, and Anson Wood took the lion's share of the credit."
In 1984, the Grammy Awards made a mark in history. Michael Jackson swept eight trophies, the album "Thriller" went down in history, and the awards ceremony swept 57 million viewers, establishing an unprecedented Beyond a peak that is not even close.
After that, let alone 50 million, the number of viewers never exceeded 40 million. The glory of that night is still talked about by people.
This year, after 20 years, the Grammy Awards once again reached a new high, with the number of viewers reaching 37 million, starting a beautiful turnaround. This achievement even surpassed last month's Golden Globe Awards——
On August 31, the band took the greatest credit.
Judging from the numbers, achievements, and award results, the Grammy win is huge.
Of course, in addition to the praise, the awards ceremony also received a series of criticisms.
Neither the August 31st Band nor Beyoncé are the most outstanding singers this year in terms of artistic creation. The Grammy’s choice to honor them is not so much a professional consideration as a result of following the trend of popularity. , this is far from the bold innovation of last year's awards results, which is really disappointing. The Grammys should forge ahead and strike while the iron is hot, rather than being carried forward by the trend.
However, all this has not detracted from the Grammy's overall fanatical attitude.
Inside and outside, up and down, everyone is talking about this year's Grammy——
The Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences is the biggest winner.
Meanwhile, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is lying on its back.
The Grammys have come to an end. Leaving aside important facts such as ratings, red carpet frenzy, and awards results, there is one thing that is particularly special:
Anson Wood.
In the opening performance of the second half, Anson's talent was amazing. Whether it was emotional expression or song interpretation, whether it was stage performance or song creation, this young man's skills were astonishing.
In the past, I just heard about it.
In 2003 and 2004, the dissemination of information on the Internet was still not comprehensive enough. The craze of the band's European tour website on August 31st may not be visible to everyone, although the band's name frequently appeared on the Billboard charts. But after all, it still lacks some intuitive impact.
What's more, except for the "Tonight Show" before the band was formed, Anson and the August 31st Band have never performed in public on any official occasion——
Street performance?
amateur.
Everyone can perform on the street, and the general public will boo when they see these amateur performances, because they don’t know what real professionalism is, just like many people who think they are musical geniuses but are auditioning for "American Idol" It’s a truth that I didn’t realize that I was a tone-deaf until I got on stage.
Naturally, no one took the accolades surrounding Anson and August 31st seriously.
All the way to Grammy night.
Shock, shock - stunning.
Full of praise.
The craze comes one after another and cannot stop at all. For a long time, in Hollywood, people's impression of Anson has stayed at the "vase" stage——
Or, like Johnny Depp, challenge different roles as an actor, and then form a rock band for fun, just to be cool.
Or, like Will Smith, package everything from actors to singers as idols to fill the gap of black actors.
That's probably it.
But now, the shock and impact of the Grammy night performance stage has created waves that continue to spread even after the awards show is over.
It is obvious, 100%, that Anson is not just a vase.
Some people have maliciously speculated before that Anson may have used a gunman to create the band. For example, all the lyrics and music were written by Miles, but they were signed by Anson.
But now, on the awards ceremony stage, everything is a live performance, and even the possibility of the gunman lip-syncing has been cut off, and he can truly convince the audience with his strength.
The impact is far beyond imagination.
From all aspects, Anson was the biggest winner at the Grammy Awards. The image of the "vase" suffered an unprecedented impact and shake.
Still remember the controversy caused by the Golden Globe Awards a few weeks ago——
Should “The Butterfly Effect” and “Elephant” win awards and be nominated?
At that time, the college still stubbornly believed that Anson was just a vase, refused to give Anson special treatment, and caused controversy over his attendance.
And now?
The eyes of millions of people in Hollywood are all directed towards the academy.
College, do you regret it? Are you anxious and regretful? Is it too late to invite Anson to the Oscar rescue?
Grammy challenged Oscar, but I never expected that Grammy would have the last laugh——
A good show.
It’s rare to see the arrogant American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences being defeated. This scene is really wonderful!
Even within the Hollywood industry, agents, actors, producers, etc. are happy to see the stubborn, old, and paranoid academy executives disgraced.
Even though they are also members of the academy, the current attitude of the academy management to be lifeless, stubborn and clinging to tradition makes them feel very frustrated.
Such a good show is really rare and not something you can see casually.
Of course, the higher-ups of the college will not bow their heads. Anyway, they can just pretend not to see it and nothing will happen.
Unfortunately, this time, the subsequent impact on the entire North American continent is far beyond imagination. Even if the college's senior officials pretend to be deaf and dumb, the overwhelming news is still pervasive——
Anson. Anson. Still Anson.
Anson Wood’s momentum soared into the sky.
After the awards ceremony, the Grammy effect was also highlighted.
Instant results!
The following week, "Midsummer Midnight" returned to the top of the Billboard album chart, and sold 370,000 copies in a single week, a 300% increase from the previous week, and has sold 5 million copies in the past year. On top of that, he was actually able to erupt with such energy inconceivably.
It's a wonder.
It is unimaginable that the market still has potential, and "midsummer midnight" once again ushered in a wave of craze.
College: Frustrated.
At the same time, "Long Live Life" and "Wake Me Up" made a strong comeback on the Billboard singles chart, both soaring into the top ten.
Academy: Vulnerable. helpless. Wronged.
