Yeah, their lyrics were not exactly "family friendly". I could have done with another Bruno song and skipped the Peppers.

He was very impressive. By the way, I never realized performers aren't paid.

What's not family friendly about "Give it Away"? Do you know what the song is about?

Loved Bruno Mars, Renee Fleming too.

Red Hot Chili Peppers were pathetic IMO, especially compared to Mars.

Most of all, I enjoyed that game! Richard Sherman, Russell Wilson, Pete Carroll. Good people who deserve to be called Champions.

The commercials were okay. Bruno was beautiful as always - he and his band always bring their a game. The game? - Was there a game? I could have skipped the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

The worst commercial was the Coke commercial where they sung America the Beautiful in different languages. I always say how nothing offends me but watching this commercial I found something that did. I think it was very disrespectful.

Another commercial they could have done better was the Honda commercial with the father and son. Instead of the son just looking at the girl on the side of the road while driving the dad should have been too. Would have been much funnier I think.

All in all I think the commercials were a big let down this Super Bowl compared to other years.

With impressive drumming then energetic singing including nice dance moves.
Red Hot Chilli Peppers ok ill give props of showing up but they are now just dated peppers.
Nice half time show.
Morris Day didn't cross my mind when I watched Bruno's performance. Bruno is far more talented IMO and his group reminded me of a time when performers were really true performers. Morris Day almost seemed like caricature, a clown, and I never took him seriously.

James Brown was the first person that came to my mind watching it.

Most of the commercials this year were a letdown from years past. The Bud commercials were downright embarrassingly bad.

Who would've thought that RADIO SHACK (there are still Radio Shacks???) would put out the best super bowl commercial??? In "getting rid of the '80s," they brought it back. I heard Twisted Sister on the radio this morning for the first time in months.

The game itself was a bore. Watching one team just get absolutely whipped by another is no fun. No tension. Just shame. Denver was told this was the Super Bowl, right?
