halftime show?

yeah... nice guitar-shaped stage, there, Tommy!

Did U all see Alicia Keyes in the pregame show?? Slammin'.

"Tom Petty was good... in 1981 but there's more life in a carton of yoghurt."

0114: Petty has so far been through American Girl, I Won't Back Down, Freefalling and something my colleague Mark doesn't recognise. All on a stage shaped like a guitar on the half-way line. Bet the players love this.

It just surprised me, that's all. I just haven't seen you in all the MJ threads in Non-Prince Music section.

Did you see the links a few posts up?

I saw Michael at a Prince show at 3121 in February of last year during NBA All Star weekend. Prince walked into the VIP and played the bass in his face. That was some funny shit! But MJ seemed to enjoy the show. I think they've always had a level of mutual respect for each other. I've never seen Michael live, but just now watching the video of his Superbowl performance had me screaming like I was 9 years old watching Motown 25. But don't tell nobody. LOL!

wildgoldenhoney said:

Yeah, I LOVE Micheal

I didn't check the links out yet but i'm most definitely gonna!

I have seen MJ live, back in 88, a disaster, the set up and all the other shit was great, but MJ live is pathetic, he sings like he is on steroids or some sort of strange female enhancing drugs. It was very disappointing to say the least, but as Irish people we were happy he played two concerts in Cork, but we had to wait another two yrs before the master arrived

I noticed that MJ almost always lip synchs which is annoying but I love his performance attitude and dancing so much that I can overlook it. Although, next to the Motown 25 performance, his performance of Man in the Mirror on the 88 Grammys with a full gospel choir is another all time fave performance. He actually sang live on this one.

Edit:

Okay I just watched this and MJ and his Jehovah's Witness self went SKRAIT to church in this performance. I think he mighta caught the Holy ghost up in there! LOL!!! He even pulled the classic James Brown move of having someone fan him while he was on the floor. Only thing missing was a cape! LOL!!! Great performance, but my man's wig was to' the hell up at the end. But he brought it to 'em.

Thanx for those links, hucking filarious, i have never seen so much lip synching before and naturally the added bonus of MJ´s affection for children

Whitnail said:

Well, ya know Michael's all about da kids. LOL! But he's still my boy! Errr, I mean man. . .

na ya, lets hope one day he will bring his old self back, if not, Billy Jean was one of the great moments and songs of the 80´s

As for the Superbowl, I live in Dallas so I'ma die hard Cowboys fan. But I hate the Patriots so I was rooting for the Giants even though they beat the 'boys. So let me be the first to congratulate them on this historic win and to say that Belichek is a classless punk ass bitch to walk off the field with time on the clock, while his players had to run a play without their leader there, AND for him to leave without congratulating the opposing team's coach. See, God don't like ugly and karma is bitch so that's why ya'll cheatin' asses got beat by a wildcard team. Go, Big Blue!!! That was a great game!

wooooo! the underdog roooof!!! this reminds me of when the Lakers lost to the Sixers (cause Lakers had this streak of beating all teams 4-0) .. everybody was talking down on the Sixers... and the underdog beat them ... rooooof!!!! ..

Flowerz said:

Woo Hoo!!!NY GIANTS!!!My neighborhood is going crazy yelling wildly out their windows and honking cars!!

Flowerz said:

AMAZING game, the defense was manhandling Brady all night. Every time they hit him, I was like, "Hit him AGAIN. Hit him in his mofo mouf!!! Don't get up, Tom! Stay on the turf fool, cuz you gon' be there all day!" LOL! I HATE the Patriots. They were so smug leading up to the playoffs. And NOBODY (but me) really thought the Giants could do it. The whole time the Giants were all, "Oh so ya'll ain't gon' show us no respect huh? Alright, then. . . " Then they killed Brady all day. LOVED IT!!!

from what i am reading on the bbc site, it was an incredible game, damn, i should have watched it

reminds me of the 2005 champions league final, Liverpool 0-3 down at half time, and came back to win the trophy. An unbelievable moment in sport and from the sounds of it another one tonight

Oh, well, I guess Randy Moss and Junior Seau gon' have to play AGAIN next year chasin' that ring! LOL! Boo-hoo!

And they made Eli MVP. I LOVE it. After the hell this kid has been through in the media and people being down on him and just meanspirited in their criticism of him. I'm also happy for my gaptoothed baby-daddy Michael Strahan that he FINALLY got his ring. But he gon' have to play a few mo' seasons to recoup what his wife took from him before me and his broke ass get married. The final sign of karma is that Tiki Barber and his triflin' ass retired last year WITHOUT a ring, and that Jeremy Shockey divisive self was too injured to play. Again, God don't like ugly!

that's right! .. i literally told somebody before this game starts.. 'This race is not given to the strong, but he that endures to the end' wooooo .. see? it's always what ppl least expect... .. and the turtle beat that rabbit .. didnt he? wooooo!!

Man, there is nothing like being at a SuperBowl party at college when a local team is going to the SuperBowl AND wins it!!

It was an awesome game. Eli Manning really surprised me when he got away from the defense when it looked like they had him down and turned around to make possibly the easiest touchdown in SuperBowl history, lol.

As for Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, they weren't bad, but they won't go down as one of the best HalfTime shows of all time. It wasn't spectucular, but it was good. Especially the last song with those guitar solos, his guitarist was really good

Once I accepted that it was no longer Prince's time, it was a good show, but it won't go down in any history book of HalfTime shows.

GO GIANTS!! [haha, my throat's still sore from screaming. I was going back across the lake to my dorm and I could hear the screaming all the way on the other side of the lake. It was amazing!]

Flowerz said:

Don't forget the best underdog story of all, David slew Goliath. I guess the Patriots were a lil premature in copyrighting "19-0" and pre-selling a DVD of their victorious season. hahahahahahaha now THAT's too funny. That's what their smug tails get! ESPN just said that Tom Brady was knocked off his feet 18 times not including SIX sacks. LOL! I love it! "Hit him AGAIN!" I want someone to tackle Tom's butt one last time in the parking lot! I HATE the Patriots! LOL!

Eli REALLY needs to get everybody on defense a Rolex or sumthin, cuz they played their butts off and saved him from having to win by scoring. Great game! They just interviewed Bill Belichek's punk ass, and if Tom Petty looked like a stiff corpse in the halftime show, Belichek is the Grim Reaper. LOL!

DreamyPopRoyalty said:

I actually had to watch Prince's show to get back in to the game...

You know who the real winner is in all of this????

Archie Manning...
His two boys just won back to back SB's

I KNOW, right? Too cool! Did you see their Mom clapping?

Tonight was proof that Prince OWNS the Superbowl Halftime show. But better than that, THE NY GIANTS ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!!!

I am seriously thinking about going to the ticker tape parade in Manhattan on Tuesday. I'm just too excited for words!!
