Chapter 1114 1114 Acceptance Speech
Tony's voice came from the microphone, thunderous applause roared, and the echoes from all directions made the ground start to tremble slightly.
Hugo didn't have time to react at all, he was about to stand up, and he was pressed back on the chair by the partners who rushed over. How did Pedro bypass Fukukin and Neil and jump directly over, Hugo couldn't think. its solution. But then, Neil also came over to hug Hugo, and Fokine and Alfonso's arms also slapped over - no, it should be more than these people, because Hugo only felt that at least a dozen hands were flapping on his body, This made Hugo think he was going to vomit blood in the next second.
In a daze, Hugo was "teleported" to the aisle by his teammates who had been honored to death. He didn't even know how his footsteps moved - maybe it was Lingbo's micro-step, and then he stood on the road leading to the On the aisle of the stage, the audience on both sides stood up collectively, everyone applauded excitedly, and their eyes full of hope locked on Hugo, which made Hugo feel the heat of a spotlight.
Hugo finally came to his senses at this point, he won the award, again. Tonight's Grammys are like a miracle, one accident after another, the confusion and excitement are beyond words.
Hugo took a deep breath, waved to his teammates, and shouted loudly, "Come on stage with me." The teammates who had been honored to death looked at each other, and the Best Producer of the Year Award was a tribute to Hugo's achievements as a producer. Compared with the best rock song award, it pays more attention to the production link. Glory to Death is justifiable to take the stage collectively at the Best Rock Song Awards, but taking the stage at this time seems to be a bit overwhelming.
But Hugo has a different idea. Glory to Death is a whole. He is a member of the band. Even if he wins an award as a producer, it cannot change this fact.
So, Hugo looked at the hesitant teammates, widened his eyes and said, "Quick! Don't ask me to say it again." After that, Hugo took the lead and walked towards the stage.
Several members of the Glory to Death exchanged glances with each other. In the end, it was Fu Jin who was the most free and easy. Pause again and follow.
Hugo, who took the lead on the stage, took the gramophone trophy from Tony. This was the third trophy that belonged to Glory to Death tonight, but before Hugo could taste it carefully, a stamp was printed on his back. Bone palm, Pedro flipped directly onto Hugo's back, making Hugo's center of gravity unstable and almost fell, and Neil and Alfonso also came up to join in the fun, shaking vigorously Hugo's shoulders.
Only Fu Jin was watching the fun by himself.
The five members of Glory to Death were playing on the stage, causing laughter from the audience, but those old schoolboys looked at this farce, and their faces that were already ashen were probably going to be green at this time.
After finally standing up, Hugo walked to the microphone and said with a smile, "Thank you, thank you my lovely teammates!" Hugo almost gritted his teeth and said this sentence, which made the scene laugh again. It was applause again, it was very lively, "Originally I wanted to say, I would not be able to stand here without the band members, tonight, Grammys, the Holy Auditorium." Hugo laughed lightly and teased, the words in his words were thick The banter made people laugh, "But now... I think," Hugo shrugged, "Pepe, don't think about it, this trophy is mine, you don't have a share."
"Hahahaha..." The audience burst into laughter.
Among the three awards tonight, Hugo is the easiest and most comfortable, although it is also the most unexpected. But compared to the previous two ill-prepared acceptance speeches, Hugo had obviously recovered his composure.
Hugo looked down at the gramophone trophy in his hand, which was not unfamiliar, but it felt much heavier than he had imagined. The heavy weight almost made Hugo feel unable to hold it. Hugo was very surprised. He couldn't help shrinking his right hand and holding the trophy tighter. The real weight came from the palm of his hand more clearly.
Hugo's gaze couldn't help but stay on the trophy for a while, the streamlined lines, the gold that reflected the light, and the mirror that projected his figure, looked brilliant under the spotlight. At this moment, the real feeling of winning the first trophy strikes again: this is the Grammy Awards! It's just that this time, the sense of authenticity has added weight, and the excitement, happiness and beauty in Hugo's heart slowly settled down.
It was just a glance, and then Hugo raised his head and said again into the microphone, "When the album 'Bathing in the Morning' came out, many people told me that it was a great album, and it was an impressive album. There are many excellent songs on the album, especially 'Beautiful. Day', which is very memorable." Hugo said with a smile, boasting about himself, which made the audience a little confused A: What kind of acceptance speech is this?
But Hugo seemed to be unknown, looking at the auditorium that was blurred by the lights in front of him, and then said, "I could hear these words almost every day during that time, and over time, I also accepted this point of view. , many times I will also feel good about myself and think, 'Very well, Hugo, you have done an incredible job, you are a genius'." The little self-deprecating smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth matched his words, Let the audience under the stage chuckle and chuckle, they seem to vaguely understand the meaning of Hugo's words.
"However, tonight, standing on the Grammy stage and winning this trophy," Hugo raised the gramophone trophy in his hand and twitched the corners of his mouth, "I suddenly realized that I didn't actually imagine that I am not the so-called genius I imagined." Hugo's words gradually quieted the scene, and everyone looked at Hugo standing on the stage, as if they were seriously looking at this three-year-old for the first time. Men who have reached the pinnacle of their careers are average.
"Maybe this is the pinnacle of my career." Hugo let out a sigh of relief and laughed at himself, which immediately caused a burst of laughter on the scene, Hugo immediately said, "But I don't want this to become a reality, I I don't want 'A Good Day' to be the pinnacle of my writing, the pinnacle of my Glory to Death career. Just like Kurt Cobain doesn't want 'Boyhood' to be the only impression everyone has of Nirvana."
"Wow", more than half of the audience at the scene once again took a deep breath. Hugo actually mentioned Kurt, so blatantly! The Grammys have been trying to ignore any news about Nirvana tonight and have managed to hold out until the end of the ceremony, only to be handily punctured by Hugo.
After the popularity of "Youth Mind", Nirvana was asked to sing the song on almost every occasion, so much so that they bored themselves, and in fact, Kurt was very impressed with the album "Never Mind" and "Youth Mind". "The song is unsatisfactory, he thinks it still doesn't meet his requirements. Therefore, many times, Nirvana will rebelliously refuse the organizer's request, unwilling to sing "Youth Mind", but subject to the contract of the record company, they have to compromise, which is really embarrassing.
That's why Nirvana performed the "Rape. Me" segment at the 1992 MTV Video Music Awards. They were asked to sing "Youth Mind", but the band refused, and after negotiating with each other, they finally decided to take a step back and sing Nirvana's new single "Lithium" during the promotion period. However, after the performance started, the band was still uneasy, so they sang a short section of "Rape. Rape. Me" at the beginning, which made everyone break out in a cold sweat.
The same is true now for Glory to the Dead, who are always asked to perform "Good Day" and "Don't. Look. Back. In. Anger" to the point of annoying the band. So this time at the Grammys, the band simply chose two songs that have not yet released singles, "One. Step. Closer" and "Wonderwall", to perform The audience was amazed in the process.
Famous songs and masterpieces are hard to come by for a public figure, because some people have no masterpieces in their lives, and can only be submerged in this industry. But for those who own masterpieces, the masterpieces may also become the shackles of their life. If they do not break the shackles of the masterpieces, they will never achieve breakthroughs and further development.
Hugo knew that Tonight's Glory to Death is worth remembering for him, but this is not the end, but another starting point. Next, Glory to Death is to break the shackles of "a beautiful day" and "bath in the morning light". And work hard.
"So, I thought, maybe this trophy is a reminder to me, 'Hey, young man, you think too much'," Hugo said with a smile, raising the trophy slightly, "You're not a genius. , you've only just started on the musical road. Phew, I think, the band and I still have a long way to go. Of course, at least not tonight, tonight is a carnival, I think a bottle of champagne can express me The truest emotion in my heart right now.”
Hugo's words changed, and his tone became relaxed again, which made the audience laugh again. Hugo nodded slightly, "Thank you! Thank you for your cheers, it made my arrogance satisfied."
The whistle and laughter sounded again, accompanied by warm applause. Watching Hugo turn around and leave the stage side by side with his teammates who died of glory, the audience stood up again one after another, and the rising applause decorated the stage beautifully at the moment.
The 37th Grammys came to an end like this. No one could have predicted such a result. Even the most authoritative, professional and senior insiders couldn't do anything about it. But again, history has created, and everything has been impossible. Redeem! That being the case, then, open your arms to welcome a new chapter!
