It was the best part of the show for me, excellent unintentional comedy that she didn't actually try to sing it in her own voice, instead she tried to sing it like Axl. I was laughing my ass off.
Pretty hard to have a good show when you can't sing for .
Her singing GnR was absolutely brutal.

I hate to defend anything having to do with the Black Eyed Peas but the show worked much better in person than on TV. I didn't even think Fergie sounded that bad live... but she sounded terrible on the broadcast because she didn't have the benefit of the stadium's natural reverb. They should have done more on the broadcast to give it more of a live "being there" feel.
It was a big stupid spectacle but it was better than I expected from a group I can't stand.

i was completely indifferent to the show, and am indifferent toward BEP. however as spurminator said, I have also heard that there was a major difference in how the performance sounded on TV as opposed to in person. a lot of people who actually were at the game said it was much better than it ended up sounding on the TV.
then again, this probably applies to most any live show by a band/artist...
Really?!
You are making a lot of assumptions. I like all kinds of music fwiw, but the Black Eyed Peas are . I wasn't giving Slash props (I love Slash and that song btw), I was giving him for phoning it in. I didn't think the Who was great last year but for a bunch of old ers, they displayed tons more energy than the Peas.
lol concept
The "concept" was trite and played out . . . because the whole " space pirate" thing is so fresh. Music hasn't changed much tbh, and even if it has, your Black Eyed Peas are certainly not the vanguard of some music revolution. Stop taking my opinion so personally, you dope.
She made the Sheryl Crow version seem awesome by comparison.
I don't know how many Superbowl Halftime shows were broadcasting at the time, but we musta been watching two different channels. Because the show I watched had the black eyed peas do one stunt/move: they walked up 3 stairs. Exhilarating.
Racist huh? Riiiiggghhhtt. I'm half-white you ing idiot...![]()
exactly
I saw Fergie doing the robot, tbh.
Did you see the U2 halftime show? It was pretty damned good.
yeah it's a concept you don't seem to grasp.
How so?
I didn't really know who The Who were until I saw that half time show. I am under 30 years old, and quite frankly, I was blown away.
U2 sucks. Doesn't matter that they were trying to honor the victims, their show sucked.
Paul McCartney was surprisingly good considering his age, but it was hardly a great show.
Prince was ok. I don't really know his music beyond Purple Rain and his work on the Batman soundtrack. The show didn't impress me, at least not on TV.
Springsteen was a disaster. He sounded old and/or drunk... His vocals were just awful. He forgot a lot of his own lyrics.
Really? How have you not heard of The Who? Or at least some of their songs?
Agree to disagree.
Interesting.
I had heard of The Who. I just didn't know any of their work. I had heard their music occasionally, usually as TV background music, but I didn't know who they were. (I know, odd considering that I almost exclusively listened to Oldies stations). Like I said, their stuff and their show was phenomenal.
Yeah, agree to disagree on U2. Their songs just sound like moaning to me.
Yeah, I always wondered about who did the soundtrack for the original Batman movie. I only recently found out it was Prince. I bought the CD, and enjoyed it throughly.
I just never have cared for them....![]()
Im not making assumptions.........but you just named damn near every rock band that has performed at the superbowl ...........
.................standing in one spot for a performance isnt very entertaining anymore. Fastforward to 2011 please.
I'm guessing you didnt see Usher and the 100's of extras dance their asses off during the show?![]()
Like I said, personally It doesnt matter anyhow............... I dont care for the BEP, but they were sure a of alot better than the WHO from last year. Its not even close.
The best thing about the show was that they didn't play "My Humps".
...What the ? Moaning?
The only rock band I mentioned was The Who. Are you goofy?
I saw it, I just don't give a . I've never interacted with you before. Are you always this stupid?
lol "fast forward"
It's a matter of personal preference tbh. I didn't say I liked The Who, but the "BEP" sucked balls. Do you even read the posts of the people you start arguments with?
Apparently the Black Eyed Peas didn't get your memo because all they did was ING STAND IN ONE SPOT FOR THEIR PERFORMANCE.
That would be a great point if it was the Usher Halftime Show and he wasn't dancing for 20 seconds before exiting. As it was, it was the Black Eyed Peas Halftime Show and they put on a goddamn awful and boring performance.
