Now for the climax of our evening, the blasphemous Godlike Genius Award.
Please welcome to the stage Connor McNicholas, a man who [D#] looks so youthful,
if you encountered him managing a tuck shop, it'd raise eyebrows as to how he'd ascended to such a giddy position.
But he's the editor of the [F] old magazine, [C#] and with him, a man who before he hit the big time [D#] with West Ham United,
squandered his life winning the treble and [F] turning a dentist's chair into a seat of decadence.
Oh, Teddy Teddy, he came to [Em] NME's and he gave [G] it all.
Let's welcome Connor McNicholas [C#m] and Teddy [C#] Sherringham.
[F#]
[C#m]
[G#m] Thank you.
The artist NME celebrates [C#] tonight [G#] with the Godlike Genius Award
[B] is somebody who is very close to the heart of the [Bm] paper.
A hero from our 54 year history.
[C] He's a unique character, an inspiring musician, a man [C#m] who Liam Gallagher calls the king of rock and roll.
[Bm] Someone who has had a massive [C#] influence [F] on the British music scene.
[G#m] Let's have a look at this [Bm] year's Godlike Genius.
[D] [C]
[A] Ian was part of the gang who formed the Stone Roses in Manchester in 1984.
One of the most important British bands of all time.
They released their eponymous debut album in 1998, an album [C] that has gone on to achieve legendary status.
[G] I kind of lost my [A] puberty virginity armpit odor to that album.
So [Fm] I love it.
To me, it's [G] still the most important British album ever made.
When the band came to an end, fans didn't [C] have to wait long for more music.
As Ian released his debut solo album, Unfinished [G] Monkey Business in 1998 to great critical acclaim.
[Em]
[D#] We [G] work together on various remixes, a few with [F] Uncle.
It's always just been a great collaborative [G] relationship where we've kind of [D#] traded music.
[G] It's a relationship [C] I cherish.
With four solo albums under [A#] his belt, Ian has sold millions of [F] records and played to [Am] thousands of fans around the world as a revered solo artist.
[F] Ian [G] Brown's an idol because he's a musical genius.
He's [D] got the cheekbones.
He looks like a monkey [G] in a good way.
You know, like you don't get many cool [D] monkeys sort of thing.
There [G] is an air about him.
There's something that he has that is indescribable and it's [F] iconic.
20 years on, Ian has had his best year to date [C] with release of his greatest hits album, The Greatest, and [E] performances at some of his biggest and best gigs.
He is an artist with a [F] unique legacy who is still at the top of his [Dm] game.
[E]
Ian walks [Am] like a champion wherever [Dm] he is.
[B] And you know, tonight is his fucking time to really walk like [G] a champion, man, because [E] he fucking deserves it.
[Am]
[B]
[N]
And this year's Godlike Genius [F] is Ian Brown.
[C#]
[D] [N]
[D] [N]
I'd [D#]
like to thank everyone at the end of me for honouring me this way.
And it is an honour.
I'd like to thank everyone that ever supported me.
The shooters kept me on it.
My family, all the peeps, all the boys.
I'd like to thank Army Fellow and love to Army Fellow singers, all the players, all the producers, all the DJs.
Keep on doing what you're doing.
Fight against us.
[B] [N]
So Ian Brown is now in a closing show.
Alright, Ian, you're going that way, mate.
Yeah, performance is what we've come here to see.
Ian Brown, everyone.
This [F#] has been the NME Arctic Monkeys Award 2000, [E] Arctic Monkey [A] 6.
And what an Arctic Monkey show it's been.
[D] So here's to another year of splendid music.
And who [Bm] better to show the young monkeys, Arctic or otherwise, [F#] how it's done than His Royal Highness, King Monkey himself, Ian [Am] Brown.
