Best half-time show evar

Or at least since the days of the Butt Bowl. Nullus.

So I'm assuming most of you caught last night's Super Bowl half-time show with Prince. I know some of you d-bags actually enjoy football, and what kind of person in his right mind doesn't enjoy Prince?

(For those of you unfortunate enough to not live in the US, do they show the Super Bowl in foreign countries?)

The game itself I thought was pretty good, especially with the rain and everything, but the half-time show was just crazy. Your boy Prince came out with both a du rag a la Eddie King in the infamous (-ly god-awful) The Five Heartbeats, and a glow-in-the dark marching band a la "Tusk" and fucking tore it down.

Partly because it was raining and partly because he's like 50, his set wasn't as animated as, say, his (obviously staged) performances in Purple Rain, but they were still pretty electric none the less. He did "Let's Go Crazy" "Baby I'm a Star" and "Purple Rain" (yep) as well as covers of Jimi Hendrix' (Bob Dylan's?) "All Along the Watchtower" and the motherfucking Foo Fighters' "Best of You."

Honestly, I could've done without either of the covers, but I'm a hater like that. I guess most of everything else he's done is a little too dirty to play at the Super Bowl in the wake of the Janet Jackson titty fiasco from a few years ago. Hence no "Little Red Corvette."

After the jump are videos of half-time show some guy has taken the liberty of posting on YouTube. Hopefully they don't get taken down. That would just be gay.
