Title: The superbowl half time show
Post by: Drama Queen on February 02, 2015, 10:20:48 AM
Curious as to what people thought.

It was impressive visually, but seemed to lack the energy that Bruno mars brought last year.

I like Katy Perry's music, but her vocals were way to perfect for all that moving about, which makes it hard even for a wrestling fan to suspend disbelief. Yes, we know they don't sing live anymore, but at least make it believable.

All in all, to me it was a bit meh, disappointing seeing as I actually like her as an artist.

I thought Bam Bam Bigelow did a decent-enough job.

Having to explain to about 100 people who Missy Elliott is was fun.

Show was decent. Would have liked more Lenny Kravitz.

Missy Elliot is god awful and always has been....

Thought the show was great. Exactly what a halftime show should be.

Agree with the comment about it seeming a little weak due to the pre-recorded vocals though. I know a lot of artists use prerecorded 'live' vocals that make it feel a little more like the live thing.

Overall, thought it was great. Lenny was great and so was Missy, though Missy kind of stole the show in my opinion.

This might sum up my difference of opinion to most... I have zero interest in sports, didn't watch the game, so my thoughts are probably not coming from the same place as most.

Like I told someone on Facebook, I'm a sucker for "Firework" and I don't care who knows it.

I missed the first half of the game (ha, "the game") but got home in time for Katy Perry, Lenny Hungergames and Missy Whatsherface.

She changed how many costumes off camera? Ill pay extra to have a dedicated camera while she changes just for a chance at nipgate 2.0

First time in a while I've enjoyed it for both the spectacle AND the actual music... yeah Katy Perry's one of those slight guilty pleasures for me. Saddens me how many people thought that was a Tiger or a Bear she rode.

I'll certainly take it over the farces that were Black Eyed Peas and Madonna, also over the slight disappointment that was The Who.

Next year I vote they get Tenacious D in for it, it may not be the Greatest Halftime Show in the world...
