    She has an amazing voice but her songs just bore me. Apparently I'm in the minority.
    I'm through with screaming

    At least there was not a political theme......

    I'm just guessing here, but you seem like a music and melody guy and not a lyrics guy. A couple of Lady Gaga's songs tonight are definitely pro-LGBT. Especially "Born this Way". I'm not calling you out or saying you're wrong. Just an observation and assumption. Apologies if I'm wrong.
    The performance was not overtly political. There were no speeches. I applaud her for that. I am not a fan of her music but I do respect her artistry. She let her music do the talking. Unlike other artist who make America and Americans look bad....
    she didnt need to speechify... her songs do the talking... woodie guthrie was a nice touch, subversive some might say. ;)

    i dont get that you think 'other artist'(whoever that might be) make america look bad by speaking out or making a a political comment... im not sure you quite grasp how we view your country... americans make themselves 'look bad'(and this applies to other nationalities too if the shoe fits)... we dont hear an american artist, whoever they might be and say holy fuckballs americans are stupid... we tend to point the finger at the artist and call them a dumbhead if what they say is disagreeable and lacking in intelligence or just plain stupid. well at least i do...

    .... anyhoo i thought GAGA was great... hope she landed well after that mic drop...

    Because there is a time and a place for everything. The Superbowl is not the place to make a big political statement just a because you hold a big microphone in your hand.
    So again kudos to Lady Gaga.

    just a side question... do you think sport is political or apolitical? im just curious and have no intention of going on with that particular conversation here on the music forum. i shall shift it over to the MT. and i disagree one of the biggest sports spectacles in the world is absolutely the place for political comment if one feels so inclined. but as you said, kudos to GAGA for her restraint/subtlety.

    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    Yep. Even if i agree 200% with her views or anyone's views the SB is not the place for a big statement. Its an escape if anything. I dont want the game announcers giving me their political views or the players. I just want to watch football man. We can all agree on that for three hours at least

    Yeah, I was kinda ticked off that they just haaaaaad to show a 5-minute-or-so clip from the O'Reilly/Trump interview during the pre-game show. The only NFL game I watched all year. Like you, I just wanted to watch football and get the fuck away from politics for a while.
