It’s crazy to think that this is the Halftime Show that set us on the course of current Halftime Shows…. MJ was the first superstar Halftime Show (1992). Amber, You got to check out U2’s full halftime show (first one after 9/11) and also Bruno Mars (2014) and then the 50th one (Coldplay/Beyonce/Bruno Mars). BTW… loving the new hairstyle Amber

Generally considered the top 3 Super Bowl Halftime Shows of All Time are: Prince MJ U2 No particular order because they all have their iconic moments in them.

I remember watching this live. No grandiose production like we have now. Just Michael doing his thing.

Just to clearu p, this was the halftime show of Super Bowl XXVII (27) on Jan. 31, 1993 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA (Dallas beat Buffalo).. And prior to the game, the coin toss was done by ..... OJ Simpson!

The Coldplay SB performance is #3 for me (because of Bey and Bruno). Prince is #1 and MJ is #2.

That’s fair, but the emotions of the 2002 (U2) is what puts them in the Top 3 all time (between Prince, MJ and U2). Everyone has their preference… I actually like the Latin one with JLo and Shakira (not looked as the best), because of it breaking down the door for Latinx performers to be celebrated (even myself being non-Latino)

Top 5 for me: 1-Prince. 2-U2. 3-Springsteen. 4-Shakira and JLo. 5-Britney, Mary J, Aerosmith.

Prior to this the Super Bowl halftime show was a joke. Mostly marching bands, Up With People, and Elvis Presto (for real!) What changed it was Fox airing a live episode of “In Living Color” for 15 minutes opposite the CBS halftime show which had ice skaters and Gloria Estefan. I love Gloria, but it was awful and most viewers watched “In Living Color”. The very next year, NBC got Michael Jackson. The rest is a hysterectomy .

In 2006, the Super Bowl 40 half-time show featured a pretty iconic band, I think - The Rolling Stones. Story goes they were asked to lip synch their performance. Of course, they said no. The network, however, did put the broadcast on a 5-second delay so they could censor when necessary. (Not just because The Stones were the bad boys of rock and roll, but the network was still a little gun shy from the 2005 Nipplegate debacle.) The first 2 songs, “Start Me Up” and “Rough Justice”, each had a word silenced from the lyrics. Before the start of the 3rd song, Mick said they could have played it at Super Bowl 1. That was a fact. The song was “Satisfaction.” But back in 1967, some of the lyrics from that song would have been censored as well.

Still the coldest open in Super Bowl history

Kristi Kalis

In my lifetime, this is still the best halftime show of all time. And her name is Lita Ford (the guitarist). She had a solo career of her own, but her time with Michael was epic. You should check out "Close My Eyes Forever", which is a duet she did with Ozzy Osbourne.

Amber, For the 25th anniversary of 9/11, can I make a suggestion of checking out the full U2 2002 Super Bowl half-time, considered a Top 3 Super Bowl halftime show of all-time, due to the message, the moment and the point of unity that the band always brings.
