Early favorites for SB half-time songs

[Dude]

Here is a sample of true rock songs that could bring back good memories in Super Bowl half-time show. And get the players excited. Yawn at the soft stuff they’ve been dishing out. Classic rock and roll is the way to go, not the pop, hip-hop stuff, yeah. Sorry Millenials, nothing new under the sun. All 70s song are the best and a fountain of inspiration for the new stuff. Here are some examples of the good old stuff:

1) Led Zeppelin – Whole Lotta Love (intro speaks for itself)

2) Deep Purple – Highway Star (great band)

3) Nazareth – Hair of the Dog (need more cowbell baby)

4) Traffic – Dear Mr. Fantasy (makes you think twice about rock)

5) Black Sabbath / Paranoid (really now, who’s worried)

6) Ted Nugent – Stanglehold (LOL, this is old ESPN joke)

I’m sure there are 80s bands that picked up the slack, but then … what happened? Music has become so bad. These days I listen to classical music, so fed up with the new stuff. It all sounds the same.

1. You got old
2. They got old
3. Many consumers started stealing music
4. Why try harder? (most forms of media have gotten pretty formulaic)

I find that there is good music every other year these days but not at the same frequency or popularity of anything pre-1995.

I'll go with Luke Bryan as this years Super Bowl performer

OP sounds like a grouchy old man.

 

[rmilia1]

Super Bowl is in ATL. It's gonna be hip-hop or rap or both

 

[rmilia1]

Usher, Ludacris... something mainstream but still ATL roots

Hip hop and screechy girly shit.

Why I just read the other day where Taylor Swift is one of the greatest song writers ever!

Sounds like a guy who knows his tunes.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Jack White and any one of his bands he cares to perform with.

I might even watch halftime then.

Meh. I'm not huge on music. I like it. I don't think much about it beyond that though. I will say, I think Lauren Daigle has the best voice in music today.

I still like music. Robert Plant and his Sensational Space Shifters on June 29, Jack White Aug 12. Looking forward to both.

And I don't care how well somebody sings so much as what they are singing.

And they can keep the cavorting about onstage.

All the dancing bothers me more than the shit songs as a rule.

That's okay. Not only does Lauren Daigle have a beautiful voice, the songs she sings are uplifting, as well.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Uplifting? I'd tune out.....

Sex, drugs, rock and roll? I'm in.

That's all most mainstream artists sing about these days and you think it's garbage. Make up your mind, Kingsley.

 

[The Derski]

Yeah, what everyone wants is some Jesus music at the halftime show.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

No.

Hip hop.

Screechy girl singers.

Define mainstream R&R? It doesn't exist much any more.

My mind is made up.

Luke Bryan is from Georgia and has performed with Jason Derulo. I bet he at least gets a guest spot in there and he can hit the high notes.

 

[eaglesnut]

At half:
Eagles winning 24-6

Time songs:
Allman Brothers - Ain't Wasting Time No More
Pink Floyd - Time
Foreplay/ Long Time - Boston
Does Anybody Really Know What Time it is? - Chicago

 

[Pure Steel]

Super Bowl is in ATL. It's gonna be hip-hop or rap or both

Bring back 2 Live Crew.....just throw some sluts on stage.....Boom done.....

How about a Christian artist to keep Andy in the right frame of mind? Something to keep him pumped up when he comes back out in the second half
