Billy Joel to sing National Anthem AND join PRINCE for Halftime...

Accoriding to TMZ...

Billy Joel will perform the national anthem at the Super Bowl in Miami on Feb. 4, and will join Prince in the halftime show. He's the first performer to sing the national anthem twice -- he did it in 1989.


Thoughts? A duel piano battle?

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

I really doubt this will happen, TMZ gets crap wrong all the time. I can't stand Billy Joel, he has NO business being on stage with Prince.

Do you have a link? I don't find the article on their webpage.

Between Beyonce and Billy Joel, there's not going to be much space left for Prince in a 13 minute performance...

they won't be performing together. the anthem happens before the game. the half-time show happens in the middle of the game.

hmmm Just curious. When you say "all octaves" are you referring to left-hand technique (the bassline)?

Makes sense, JW's don't do the National Anthem.
I don't see a duet happening however.

yeah i doubt prince has the courage to play with someone as good as Billy Joel. and like was said Billy (even with his stubby fingers) is a far better piano player than prince.

and prince has focused much more on guitar... so it would be an interesting balance. but it IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!

Hope this is an error! Let Billy Joel keep performing with the queen,Elton John,and leave the Prince alone 2 put on the greatest halftime show ever! Prince doesn't need support acts r special guests.He's a 1 man show !!

Let's hope he isn't driving to the stadium or there'll be a tree with his name and car imprinted on it.

National anthem should be Prince wailing on his guitar... instant publicity and respect (like the RRHOF solo...)

Why do people think Billy can't be on the same stage as Prince?

Billy Joel is a tremendous piano player and singer.

Prince is a tremendous multi-faceted performer.

I don't think Prince can teach Billy anything about piano, just like Billy can't teach Prince that much about guitar, drums, and bass.

Both are great, professional musicians.

It'd be great to hear a collaboration.
