Chapter 444: Awarded

Different from the layout of the Oscar ceremony which is like a theater performance, the Grammy is arranged like a concert. In the middle of the rectangular main stage, there is also an extended sub-stage, which is convenient for the performing guests and the guests under the stage to interact.

In the past, for the Grammy opening performance, in order to leave a deep impression on everyone, many singers would perform tricks on the stage.

Some would sing while doing gymnastics, and some would perform performance art that made people confused.

However, these things are very normal in the eyes of big families. After all, what the West advocates is rebellion and being different. If you follow the rules and are all the same, it would be too boring.

But conversely, after doing so many tricks in the language world, if someone suddenly comes to a serious performance without any bells and whistles, it is another kind of rebellion.

To sum up, no matter what way you use to perform, as long as it is outstanding enough, everyone will applaud.

Compared with these exaggerated and unrestrained stage performances in Europe and America, Miss Luo Quan's typhoon has always been relatively subtle. In most cases, she just holds the microphone and sings according to the steps.

Today is no exception. Although she is dressed incomparably gorgeously, what she sings is not a song like "My Heart Will Go On" that is open and closed, gorgeous and magnificent, but a simple small fresh song.

"Next, please welcome Miss Luo Quan to bring you the opening performance. The song is called "In My Life"! (The original singer is The Beatles.)"

"There are places I'll remember

All my life, though some have changed

Some forever, not for better

Some have gone and some remain

All these places have their moments

With lovers and friends I still can recall

Some are dead and some are living

In my life, I've loved them all…………"

The lyrics are slightly sad in warmth, the melody is fresh and brisk, and the whole song does not play any accompaniment, completely played and sung by Miss Luo Quan herself on the guitar.

Interestingly, she herself is hidden behind a semi-transparent thin curtain. Everyone can only see her beautiful shadow playing the guitar, full of hazy beauty.

To be honest, this song is a bit beyond the expectations of the guests under the stage.

It is too fresh and refined, and it seems a bit out of place with the luxurious stage of the Grammy.

This is one of the most influential awards ceremonies in the world's entertainment industry. It should have used explosive performance to embellish its magnificence, but Miss Luo Quan chose such a song in a different way.

The key is that this song is surprisingly good to listen to. Just from the first sentence, it made the guests under the stage feel bright and gently shook their bodies.

The excellence of this song has surpassed almost all the saliva songs on the market.

Looking at Miss Luo Quan who was singing in a simple way on the stage, the singers under the stage were suddenly a bit dazed.

Music, it seems, should not be so complicated.

The current Western music seems to have entered a misunderstanding, that is, the more complex and gorgeous the accompaniment and arrangement, the better the song.

Lyrics and melody are no longer the first set of elements to judge whether a song is excellent. Replacing them is production, which is a technical factor.

The progress of technology has added too much content to a song. Singers can express more and more thoughts in it, creating one magical style after another.

But it ignores the most essential thing of the song, which is melody and lyrics.

It is not superb production technology that can make a good song, and it has never been.

But now many people have entered this misunderstanding, while Miss Luo Quan has always remained sober.

Counting the many songs Miss Luo Quan has released, none of them possess too superb production technology, and the accompaniment usually only has a few sounds.

Sometimes she only needs an hour or two to produce a song. Playing the accompaniment herself and singing it again is a song.

And other singers often need to collect more than a dozen sound source materials to produce a song, racking their brains to fuse them together. The production cycle of a song is often more than half a month.

And it is a song with such a long production cycle that cannot compare with a song Miss Luo Quan spent a few hours making.

This is not a simple gap in musical talent. More importantly, it should be that the direction they chose was wrong from the beginning.

So the more they work hard in this direction, the more wrong they are, and the greater the distance from Miss Luo Quan.

This "In My Life" woke them up at this moment.

A guitar, a voice, everyone can't even see Miss Luo Quan's real person.

But who dares to say that this song is not good to listen to? No!

Don't look at it being simple to this point, but as long as it is put on the internet, even if it is released anonymously, it will definitely top the Billboard and take the crown single.

The difference is only that if Miss Luo Quan's name is used, the time to top the Billboard will be shortened to the extreme, but this does not affect the results of this song.

After all, its melody and lyrics are placed there. Such a good song, how can fans not like it?

Singers seem to understand Miss Luo Quan's success code a bit.

In fact, the European and American music scene at the beginning of the century was not like it is now. Songs with beautiful melodies emerged one after another, and there were countless excellent creators.

But I don't know when it started, everyone began to spend their energy on places outside of music.

I don't know whether technological progress is a good thing or a bad thing.

While thinking, Miss Luo Quan's small fresh song has been sung.

The guests were very surprised, not even three minutes, is this too fast?

The performance is of course not over yet. The Grammy opening performance has never just sung one song.

Miss Luo Quan also understands that in such a big scene, it is unreasonable not to warm up the scene.

She sang "In My Life" not to tell other singers any big truth about the music road, but just to use this song to recall the relatives and friends she met in her past life.

This song is sung for them.

Blocking with a thin curtain is also because the clothes she is wearing now are too gorgeous, and singing such a song will seem a bit out of place.

As for the pile of things that the guests under the stage made up for themselves and the many insights they realized, it was not her original intention.

Now the appetizer is over, and the main course is about to begin.

First, the thin curtain fell, and Miss Luo Quan in a pink feather dress suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

A refreshing wind blew under the stage, blowing the skirt of Miss Luo Quan and the feathers on the skirt up and down, looking like a pair of flapping wings.

"Music Angel!" A guest under the stage who liked Miss Luo Quan suddenly shouted her nickname loudly.

Miss Luo Quan's nicknames are actually very many, such as the world's most beautiful, Oriental Mo Mo Zhate, fashion black hole, abyss giant mouth………………

But in the pop music circle, the most famous one is still Music Angel.

After all, this nickname has been on the headline of Time magazine, and it also fits her persona quite well.

Now that it was suddenly shouted out, no one under the stage felt that there was anything wrong. Everything was so natural.

Now Miss Luo Quan on the stage is indeed a Music Angel.

"Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?

Well that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?

Well that's all right because I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie…………"

A cappella, the guests immediately heard that this song was a song Miss Luo Quan had released before, and the song name was "Love the Way You Lie."

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry

I've already cried until I'm speechless, yet you just watch from the sidelines.

Well that's all right

But that's okay.

Because I love the way you lie

Because I love the way you lie.

I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie……"

With this a cappella performance, the guests immediately recognized that this was a song Miss Luo Quan had released previously, titled "Love the Way You Lie."

However, this song does not seem to be a solo, but a singing method that combines pop and rap, and the rap part is completed by Gao Liang, who is known as the little king of rap.

That is to say…………

The next second, the passionate drum beats and accompaniment sounded. Gao Liang sang passionate rap, stepped on the arrogant and domineering overlord step, and slowly walked to the front of the stage.

(ps. For specific pictures, you can search for Eminem Rihanna Grammy performance on Bilibili)

"I knew it, I knew it!"

The guests under the stage cheered excitedly, and the atmosphere at the scene was instantly ignited.

As if to cater to the atmosphere, a fiercely burning flame appeared on the electronic big screen on the stage, and Gao Liang walked to the front of the stage under this background.

In the United States, Miss Luo Quan and Gao Liang are recognized as a king-bomb combination.

Although the number of times they sang on the same stage was very small, the effect of each singing was unique. The characteristics of the two were almost perfectly complemented, and their appearance was the world's number one. Whether in hearing or vision, it was an enjoyable experience to the extreme for the audience.

This Grammy, the outside world guessed the possibility of the two performing together, but the organizer announced that it was only Miss Luo Quan, so everyone did not hold too much expectation in this regard.

However, unexpectedly, Gao Liang still came out.

It can't be said that it was unexpected, because this is a very reasonable thing.

How good the chorus effect of Miss Luo Quan and Gao Liang is, you can know by asking the Billboard crown singles that were swept away at the beginning. The chorus songs of the two are still on the list now, and there are few songs in the music circle that can be so strong.

And the song the two are singing on the stage now is definitely a boutique among songs in recent years. Whether in pop or rap, it is a boutique.

Gao Liang's rap is extremely infectious, the rhythm is brisk and full of power, and Miss Luo Quan's singing voice is loud. Whether it is timbre or technique, it has reached the point of perfection.

Listening to the performance of these two people, even for these top musicians under the stage, it is a kind of enjoyment, not to mention the audience who are watching the live broadcast at this time. They have long been screaming excitedly, various barrages are frantically brushing the screen, and they hit the Twitter trending search in less than three minutes.

After singing a song, the two sisters and brothers were still posing on the stage. The guests under the stage had already stood up as a whole unknowingly, offering their most enthusiastic applause and cheers to the two.

The warm-up session was successfully completed.

The two quickly went off the stage, leaving the stage to the host.

Next, it was the main show tonight, which was the exciting award-giving session.

Different from the comprehensive awards of the Oscars, the Grammy has many classifications, such as pop, rap, country, folk, rock, jazz, classical………… and so on, different music types, all have to be awarded.

Each music type has several bests, and then it is the annual comprehensive best.

In addition, there are some special awards, such as production, children, recitation, musicals, etc.

In short, there are many classifications, so the process of awarding awards seems to be much faster.

Like all awards ceremonies, the award-giving stage starts from insignificant small awards, best children's music album, best recitation, best comedy, etc.

Not hearing these awards with my own ears, Miss Luo Quan didn't even know that the Grammy would give awards for these things.

This is much wider than the Oscars.

Soon, her first major award came.

"The winner of this Grammy Best Gospel Song is Miss Luo Quan!" The host said a winner's name that made many people feel surprised.

Gospel song? I don't remember Miss Luo Quan singing any religious songs.

Actually, she has sung it, and this song is still very famous.

Last autumn, Chanel released a new autumn and winter series, and she was specially asked to compose a promotional song for these new clothes.

Because the designer added quite a few religious elements to the clothes, she also specially chose a gospel song "Wake."

To be precise, this should be considered a song that combines pop electronic music with gospel. The style is very high, but the lyrics are quite serious.

After it came out, the clicks on YouTube were quite high, but because the song was too high, few people would think of this song in terms of gospel songs.

But in the eyes of the judges, this is indeed a gospel song.

You cannot deny its essence because of the pop elements on it.

In the applause, Miss Luo Quan walked onto the stage with a full face of smiles and took down the first trophy.

After seeing her figure, whether it was the guests sitting under the stage or the audience watching the live broadcast, they knew that her big show belonging to her was about to begin.

This award only blew the horn for her sweeping the Grammy.

Sure enough, when the scrap awards were finished, Miss Luo Quan basically participated in the remaining important awards.

As the most high-yielding singer in the past two years with the highest level of works, Miss Luo Quan has been involved in most mainstream music types, and each song has reached the level of the best in this century. This has been certified by the authoritative "Rolling Stone" magazine and cannot be denied at all.

"Next, announce the winner of the Best Folk Song………… is the author of "Scarborough Fair", Miss Luo Quan!"

This is an award without suspense. The greatness of "Scarborough Fair" has been described on major authoritative music websites, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a world-famous song.

Immediately after, it is Best Classical Performance.

"The one who got this award is "Time to Say Goodbye"!"

Needless to say, it is another world-famous song. In the West, especially in Europe, this is one of Miss Luo Quan's songs with the greatest influence.

Then, it is Best Classical Composition, and the winner is "Canon."

This is a divine song that Miss Luo Quan completely pulled away from other pop singers, and it is also a stepping stone for her to enter the classical music circle. Her name as the Oriental Mo Mo Zhate has also been completely publicized.

In just a few minutes, Miss Luo Quan has taken three major awards in a row.

And the performance belonging to her has just begun. ===== CHAPTER 445 =====
