Chapter 1524 Grammy Awards (4)
A total of seven awards in the rock music category are constantly being announced and awarded.
Bob Dylan won the best rock singer, defeating competitors such as Tom-petty and Neil-young.
Bob Dylan, born in Minnesota, USA in 1941, is 66 years old this year. He is a famous American rock and folk artist. He has a great impression of world rock and folk. People like him are no longer just singers, but can be called artists. Jin Jingcheng personally likes some of his classic songs, but what Jin Jingcheng doesn't know is that in 2016, Bob Dylan also won the Nobel Prize in Literature, becoming the first composer in history to win the Nobel Prize in Literature.
This time, Bob Dylan brought a new album "Modern-times" released last year to attend the Grammy Awards Ceremony. For decades, Bob Dylan has maintained a keen insight into every era. This "Modern times" is full of his confusion and confusion, hope and disillusionment about the "modern era", which has accumulated the vicissitudes of time and told the listener a period of history.
The Grammy Awards have always had a tradition of respecting the elderly. This time it continues this tradition and will not ignore Bob Dylan, who released a new album last year, a rock leader who represents the spirit of a generation. This old man has been mythological for many years, and it is difficult to disrespect him.
"Modern-times" can be regarded as a rock album or a contemporary folk album, because rock and folk can sometimes be connected, and Bob Dylan is the best among them. With this album, Bob Dylan won the Best Rock Singer, and he was nominated for the following folk awards, but I don't know if he can win the award.
The one who won the best rock band/combination is the Red Peppers.
Founded in 1983, Red Peppers is an old rock band from Los Angeles, USA. Its music style combines many genres, including funk-rock, alternative-rock, punk-rock, rap-rock, etc.
Although the Red Peppers only won the Grammy twice before, they were very strong in the Grammy this time, and they were nominated for six awards, second only to MRJin, who was nominated for ten awards and Mary Blige, a veteran rhythm and blues singer who was nominated for seven awards. The Red Peppers' rock album "stadium-arcadium" is very strong this time, like a hot bombshell thrown in the European and American rock industry, spicy and cherishing the impulse of youth. The popular rock song "dani-california" in the album is also very strong.
The rock album "stadium-arcadium" by Red Peppers this time sounds like a hodgepodge, but was rated by the American music critics as "one of the most important albums to ignore" last year. This album integrates various elements and forms distinctive features. Compared with the same style of primus at the same time, Red Peppers undoubtedly did more outstandingly and made greater contributions. They won the award for Best Rock Band/Combination, which is expected.
This time, the Red Peppers rushed out under the clamping of several strong opponents, winning the best rock band/combination, thanks to the popular rock song "dani-california".
Best Metal Performance, this award was won by the Slayer band.
Slayer band is also an old band. In 1982, guitarist Kerny-king formed the Slayer band with the lead singer Tom-araya in the suburbs of Los Angeles. It is now a famous American speed metal band. It is known as the four giants of Thrash metal along with Metal, Massacre, and Anthrax.
The slayer band won the best metal performance on the Grammy this time, which is commendable, defeating all powerful opponents such as lamb-of-god, ministry. "Christ-illusion" is an album released by Slayer after "god-hates-us-all" five years later. In this old-fashioned thrash-metal lifeless era, Slayer's return this time is commendable. It is even more commendable to be able to win the best metal performance on the Grammy after the return.
Best Rock Song, this award was won by mrjin!
mrjin won the best rock song with the song "viva-la-vida".
"viva-la-vida" (Long Live Life) is the first main song in "mrjin-no.1". This song is very high-end and atmospheric, with a baroque pop, alternative pop/rock, and piano rock. In his previous life, this song was a song by the British rock band Coolplay Band. It was popular all over the world, and has topped the music rankings in more than 30 countries around the world. It won awards at many major music awards ceremonies such as the Grammy, the British Music Awards, and the MTV European Music Awards.
This song is inspired by a painting "viva-la-vida" by the 20th-century Mexican female artist Frida Carlo. In Spanish, "viva" expresses the meaning of cheering for someone or something. This song is very imposing, and the words used in some sentences can be said to be domineering, but the true meaning of the lyrics does not seem to have a standard answer. The person who writes the song is not obliged to explain this, and perhaps it cannot be explained.
The content of this song is: a red rose blooms at the beginning of MV, and then MRjin appears and sang the song on the oil painting of "Liberty Guide the People" by French painter Delacroix. At the end of MV, MRjin gradually turns into red fragments and disappears. In MV, MRjin keeps dancing a dance with his arms spreading and his body shaking. This is a simple and funny dance, symbolizing freedom and unruly, but it is very attractive.
Although the song "viva-la-vida" is not very popular in Asia, it is very popular in Europe and the United States. It has also been rated as the most classic song in the European and American music industry last year by many European and American music critics. There are even some music critics who rated this song as the most classic song since the 21st century. This time, mrjin won ten nominations in the Grammy and led the way with an absolute advantage. This song has contributed considerable contribution.
Such "viva-la-vida" won the best rock song, which was expected by many people. The other rock songs shortlisted this time are not the match for this song, even the popular rock song "dani-california" by the Red Peppers.
In fact, the best rock song in the Grammys in the previous life was won by the popular rock song "dani-california" of the Red Peppers. This popular rock song not only gave the Red Peppers the best rock band/combination, but also gave the Red Peppers the best rock song. However, now, the Red Peppers are not so lucky. Although they have won the best rock band/combination with this popular rock song, the best rock song was grabbed by mrjin with the song "viva-la-vida". Compared with "viva-la-vida", the so-called popular rock song "dani-california" is nothing, and even the Red Peppers itself has to accept this.
Kim Jingcheng's award won this time convinced many celebrity singers and audience fans. When Kim Jingcheng walked on stage to receive the award, the song "viva-la-vida" sounded, which suddenly ignited the atmosphere on the scene. Many celebrity singers and audience fans couldn't help but stand up, applauding and cheering loudly.
