The Battle of the Century, which originated in the North American market, has exploded with infinite energy on the land of the United Kingdom. Compared with the duel between Glory To Death and Maria in the North American market, the competition in the United Kingdom is obviously much fiercer and more rare. Yes, the result of the UK market is likely to become a key area that determines the outcome of the world.

With the advancing of time, the sights from all over the world are gathering towards Britain bit by bit.

After Monday’s boom, Tuesday belonged to the Oasis band, and Wednesday greeted the Glory to Death and Maria’s double explosion, and the British market was completely boiling. On Thursday, the noisy scene took the breath of countless people, and it truly ushered in the pinnacle of the war of the century!

The fans of the Oasis band who are not to be outdone want to regain the initiative and show their incomparably strong glory. To the death fans want to continue their glory, and the subsequent explosive Maria-Kelly fans want to win in chaos...Everyone, all All of them broke out on this day.

Twenty years later, after Chris Martin appeared on major performances around the world as the lead singer of Coldplay, he has seen countless big scenes and has become a new representative force of British rock, but he is deep in his memory. But still clearly remember that day:

It was September 26, 1996, a Thursday that couldn't be more normal. Early in the morning, countless young people in major cities took to the streets. There were hundreds of meters of dragons lined up in front of the hmv store. The teenagers with pimples on their faces used their pocket money to buy a piece of glory. Dead or Oasis or Mariah Carey, supporting their idols, the pomp of the empty streets even surpassed the opening match of the Battle of the Century on September 23, and almost made the whole country into a state of fanaticism. This may be since 1966. The most lively scene after winning the World Cup in England in 2016.

Closing his eyes, Chris could still feel the scorching heat in the air, rushing to his face; uncontrollable screams and noisy discussions surrounded him in all directions; the blood in his body began to boil continuously, beyond words The excitement and excitement scurried all over the body. At that time, he still didn't understand what this emotion was about. It was not until many years later that Chris understood: Because on that day, he realized that he had become a member of the historical milestone, and he stood on the spot of the historical moment.

It's like... Just like Woodstock, every participant has left an eternal mark deep in the soul.

In that year, Glory To Death and Oasis were the most watched opponents in the world, just like Manchester United and Arsenal in the Premier League, Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, and the former Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War. This is a short and vigorous day in the history of world music, and it will shake the music scene for the next twenty years with mighty force.

"D.o.g, d.o.g! Oasis, oasis! Maria, Maria! d.o.g, oasis! d.o.g, d.o.g, d.o.g..." The endless shouts are like empty valley echoes, reverberating in my mind, like moments preserved in a vacuum, preserved forever in the depths of the soul, every time, just close your eyes and ears There will be echoes of that surging shout, "d.o.g, d.o.g......"

Chris seemed to lose his mind—no, he did lose his mind—screaming hoarsely, using every muscle and cell of his body to convey his inner surging, that bright and wanton smile, eternally Frozen in the long queue at the door of the hmv flagship store on Oxford Street on September 26, 1996, it also became the starting point for the Coldplay dream.

Four hundred and thirty thousand!

With a total of 430,000 single-day sales, on September 26, the British Isles erupted with endless energy, and won the world’s first single-day gold record sales for "Young Volcano (. , Causing an uproar in the media from all corners of the world.

People once imagined that the War of the Century would explode such terrifying energy, but they did not expect that the real* will be ushered in the fourth day after the war. After such strong sales have been swept through the first three days, the fourth day will be able to It has created a new high in sales since the release of the single-and it has increased a level from 300,000 to 400,000. Even if it is described as shocking, it cannot accurately express people's inner shock at this time.

The young volcanoes in Britain really detonated the volcano with their own actions, igniting vigorously one after another, igniting every corner of the land of the British Empire. This raging fire clearly illuminates the world and brings With the unparalleled impact, all languages ​​lost their color.

What is even more frightening is that it is not only glory to death to complete the explosion!

Oasis’ "Do you know what I mean?" unexpectedly broke out again on this day with 360,000 sales. This result has far exceeded the data on the first day of single release, and has become a single since the beginning of the 1990s. The best-selling local single of the week-if it hadn't been honored to death, then Oasis is indeed rewriting the history of British music.

No one can ignore the premise that Oasis has sold 360,000. The first three days have ushered in a strong explosion, and the quality of "Do you know what I mean" is far inferior to that of "Young Volcano". "It's totally untenable, not to mention that this single is not worth mentioning compared to the excellent and successful Oasis' previous two albums. This shows that the fourth day of release still ushered in 360,000 sales, completely relying on the popularity of Oasis itself.

This is the current power of Oasis in the UK.

Glory to Death and Oasis both broke out, completely turning the glory of the American market into a supporting role, and the main battlefield of the War of the Century was instantly transferred to the United Kingdom. People expected the confrontation between the two rock bands, but they didn’t expect that the Oasis Band had already performed supernormally at home, but the glory of the away game until death made history with a more powerful posture. There is no one in the direction of this duel. Able to predict.

If only this is the case, then the quality of the war of the century must be weakened a lot. As the iron triangle, Maria is not to be outdone. "Sweetheart" really exploded all the energy on this day and won 31 thousand in one go. Sales! A full three hundred and ten thousand! Although the data is not comparable to the glory to death, the gap with the Oasis is not very obvious, which once again proves Maria’s status as a queen — her global influence is enough to compete with Whitney Houston On par.

Maria swept away the haze of the first three days and proved her popularity and strength with a single day of sales of 310,000. She directly fought back against people’s complaints about Maria, and regained her competitiveness in the British market. The intensity of the battle of the century has reached a new level.

The intensity of the British theater is far beyond people's imagination, "430,000 vs 360,000 vs 310,000", so the results of the first day of the Battle of the Century in the United States will be extremely lively. The duel has once again pushed to a new height, and almost all the media are shocked: When does the British market have such a strong appeal? When does Glory to Death have such a huge fan base in the UK?

Everyone knows the fact that the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom are the three most important music markets in the world, but among these, the United States is the leader; while Japan is very repulsive of foreign music, the sales capacity of local musicians However, it is not inferior to the United States. In many cases, in the global sales competition, the United States and Japan can be regarded as Ssangyong. The United Kingdom can firmly occupy the third place, but it is rarely able to truly join the top competition.

Even the top rock bands such as The Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Queens, the reason why they have such a strong influence in the world is more because they are supremely sought after in the United States, rather than because they are locally in the UK. How much affirmation has been received.

But this time in the war of the century, the excellent performance of the British market has completely exploded the American market. Except for the first day's sales, the sales of British singles continued to soar in the next few days, and its instantaneous explosiveness made people clear I saw the huge enthusiasm hidden deep in the bones of this land crazy because of rock and roll.

In fact, people only know one or the other. If you talk about average level and overall strength, then the United Kingdom is naturally inferior to the United States and Japan; but if you talk about instantaneous explosive power and have the best level in history, then the United Kingdom does have peace Japan's competitive strength, especially single sales.

It was not until this year that the first single with a weekly sales volume of over 500,000 appeared in the US market—that is, this week, but the number of singles with sales exceeding one million in a single week in the United Kingdom has been in double digits so far. .

As of September 1996, the single weekly sales leader in the UK music market was the single released in 1984 "Do they know that it is Christmas now This single was created by Mitz -Ure (.ure) and Bob Gildolf (.) led the recording, and invited dozens of celebrities to form a band. The band was written for the Ethiopian Famine from 1983 to 1985 Charity fundraiser song.

This single was released on Christmas Eve in 1984. It sold nearly two million in a single week, and finally sold 3.7 million copies. This is not only the best-selling single in the history of British music, but also The top selling single in the world.

In addition, Queen’s "Bohemian Rhapsody (. and Paul McCartney’s single "Mull. , "You are what I want ('re.the.one.that.i.want in the movie "grease", disco dance music "Babylon River" sung by Bonim (.m) (.of. , "She Loves You (she... of The Beatles, etc., achieved more than one million sales in the first week of release.

It can be said that the land of the United Kingdom has once shown its brilliance, and its explosive power in a short period of time is not inferior to that of Japan. Judging from the current form, after the War of the Century has rewritten the history of the United States, stormy waves have also been set off in the British market. Next, the history of the United Kingdom will be rewritten!
