Prince singing at the Super Bowl - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

Since he always gets strong praise here, I thought I'd throw this up here. I'm actually really interested to see his performance (much moreso than anything else recently) because it could either be really good or it could pretty good and sort of odd or it could be all right and Liberace weird. As long as we don't get the Batdance song....

The article doesn't really say anything important, but I feel the need to cite my sources.

WHen has Prince ever done something good? I for one want to bring back Janets breasts. That was a good time for all. Prince will be a good time for gay men only.

What is the NFL thinking? Admittedly, I'm not up on my pop culture, but I do have a 16- and 14-year-old and I haven't seen any Prince in our I-Tunes library. I'm very puzzled. Of course, I was always very puzzled by his appeal, anyway.

Prince looks like the love child of Michael Jackson and Richard Simmons. This should be good times had by all.

Parrot Head, I trust you won't have blue balls after watching this one ...?

For you guitar playing aficionado's.....Prince is an incredible master on the guitar.

Laugh all you want.

He really is.

Yeah, and Liberace was an incredible master of the piano.

As long as he plays Raspberry Beret, I'll be fine with it.

Rocky is right. Prince is an incredible guitarist. In fact, he's an incredible musician all around. The comparison to Liberace doesn't work. You name a hot 80's chick and Prince hit that. Two words, Kim Basinger.

Prince brought it on himself though, so I can't blame those of you who call him gay. That's the kind of rep you get when you wear assless pants.

Don't knock assless pants. I look sweet in my assless pants.

Prince is probably the most interesting Super Bowl halftime performer they've had in a while.

He may be the most talented musician of our generation.

To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
