What a mess from Coldplay it was like they were even there with it being the Beyonce and Bruno Mars show. I feel sorry for Coldplay, they've taken such a backwards step and lost any artistic talent they had.

I personally judge most things in life by their degrees of similarity to U2's Super Bowl performance.

This bowl of Cinnamon Life I'm currently consuming is definitely closer to Beyonce and farther from U2.

but Beyonce part was kinda shitty though. and she didnt even sing Hymn for Weeknd.

BoMac · 02-08-2016, 10:37 AM

That wasn't very good, but to be fair to Coldplay, the NFL essentially threw them under the bus when they invited Beyonce and Bruno Mars to the show.

Apparently Bowie wasn't the only one to reject them.

I disagree. Beyonce was fantastic and I love how political "Formation" is. Faux News is all in a tizzy.

Coldplay was done no favors by the NFL and the sound guys. I've seen them live a bunch, and I just didn't feel their normal infectious energy translated in this performance. It was just off.

I didn't like the song she was singing and I also wonder who was performing the music to her song as she certainly was not playing an instrument nor were the dozen or so half naked people she was with playing an instrument that I could see. Also, were her vocals actually live? I heard they were not live when she sang the national anthem once. Too often, these artist play no music and do not even bother to sing live and focus exclusively on costumes and dancing.

Good for Lady Gaga Gaga, its a shame she does not sing, perform, and dress like that on her previous work.

No, it's really not a shame at all.

You don't seem to like pop music much, which is fine. But many people, including myself do. Was Beyonce singing live at the Super Bowl, probably not, but because of that she sounded better than Chris Martin who likely was singing live. Pop shows are about the entire package, including the singing, dancing and costumes. Personally, if I'm going to a pop show, I'm fine with artists not singing live, if it improves the overall performance. Do I prefer going to shows with live vocals, yes. But I understand why some artists choose not to do it.

The Gaga was singing live, and can do whatever she wants. I love that she's weird.

Mack_Again · 02-08-2016, 03:18 PM

yeah Lady Gaga is totally fine. she may be the only pop singer I actually like.

david · 02-08-2016, 03:23 PM

I thought Beyonce was kind of dressed like a sexy superhero.

Headache in a Suitcase · 02-08-2016, 03:36 PM

Bruno Mars might make Bono look tall

It was pretty sexist and the "pop music is yuck" thing makes me enraged, like a lameass four-piece rock band is always better.

I can't imagine going to a concert today where lip-synching is a possibility and not being bothered by it.

Well, Coldplay is certainly better in my opinion which is all I was expressing. Not liking Beyonce does not make a person sexist. Yep, I'm a U2 fan and love 3 or 4 piece rock n' roll and much prefer it to other types of music and simply expressed that.

Whats disturbing though is you feel that someone that does not share your opinion or expresses and opinion that you dislike should disappear. Why?
