Absolutely sensational performance! What else from Usher should I react to and analyze?? I never even considered doing that until now...leave a suggestion below :]

I felt like musically, they did what they were supposed to do for this show. They entertained and they also managed to make it look incredibly easy. I couldn't even imagine playing this stage. It can be easy to be swallowed up if you aren't skilled. (even if you are skilled.) lol.

Possible relationship issues is an USHER WARNING. He don told yall 30 years ago 🤣. Glad they put that warning there as a reminder. And Usher ate. He gave everything he was supposed to give. All the MJ references with the screams, glove, dance moves etc. was all well done. When last have you seen the crowd dancing, singing, vibing & living their best life EVER. That's what USHER do baby #Legendary ❤‍🔥

The amazing guitarist is H.E.R. She is an awesome artist in her own right. She sings, writes, and plays multiple instruments. She and Usher have a beautiful duet (Risk It All) on Music Inspired by The Color Purple soundtrack.

This was definitely one of, if not the BEST halftime performances I have seen. That man sangggg live, danced on roller skates for goodness sake! The balls to do that on the biggest stage in the world?! He was CLEAN, clean dance moves, commanded the entire stage, and ended it like a BOSS! It was sooooo good! BIG UPS to my guy Usher! Also, yes they definitely cleaned up Alicia’s initial vocal lmaooo.

19:50 Finally someone mentioning that microphone dip right there which was exquisite.

Dying at you saying you were questioning your sexuality when Usher took his shirt off 🤣 You’re so real for that.

I was watching different reacts to this iconic performance and discovered you! Just subbed, great content. You're so right about Usher's vocal control and presence. He just came off of a 100 show Vegas residency so he was ready! He said he wanted to be considered for this so he extended his residency complete with the roller skating choreo so he could invite Super Bowl producers to his show. He wanted to prove he could anchor a stage this large, a dream realized. He also said he wanted to honor the Vegas entertainers who work hard daily, his long time fans like you/me and his beloved city of Atlanta.

Great analyses, bro! You had one of the most educated reaction's I've seen so far. You killed it! To your point about K-pop artist. The difference between Usher & other MAINSTREAM dancers/singers including K-Pop artists is that Usher does everything LIVE... EVERYTHING. If you search KZfaq right now, you can find lip-sync compilations from Beyoncé to any K-Pop artist. You won't find ANY lip-sync compilation of Usher & that's because they simply don't exist. That's what makes him truly special. Usher is the best singer/dancer of his generation male or female. He has the unique ability to execute intricate dance sequences while simultaneously executing challenging vocal sequences LIVE (No pre-recorded lead tracks, auto-tunes, AI etc.) which makes his half-time performance more impressive and one of the greatest of all time due to the degree of difficulty & quality. When you put performance over preference and combine the level of difficulty with quality, Usher's half-time performance surpasses his predecessors including Dr. Dre, Bruno Mars, Beyoncé, Rihanna's etc. For years, Usher has been the only mainstream singer/dancer that has TRULY committed to singing & dancing LIVE. His performance was physically the most impressive half-time performances I've ever seen. Despite how physical his performance was in nature, his breath-control & vocal stability was extraordinary. Usher is EXTREMELY underappreciated for an artist of his level. Those who dare criticize his performance typically harbor bias and are profoundly ignorant.

You were as hype as I was! Great reaction!

Look, I turned up the volume on my tv to 90 and it still couldn't drown out my excitement. Oh my childhood 🥰 Also, he's Mr. Steal Yo Girl for a reason lol. Andddd one of my nieces is one of the performers!

Now I am desperately thirsting for a Confessions remaster with full brass! 😩

Usher was fantastic and really gave people a show.

I'm 42 and rocked out hard to this performance

Yea Alicia voice cracked twice in the beginning when it aired live. They edited that in the version released on KZfaq. Because I was concerned for Alicia when she started but she got through it.

I didn’t know what to expect when I clicked on this video. I thought surely an opera singer wouldn’t know or appreciate R&B. Boy was I ever wrong. You’re reaction was GOLDEN! Loved your analysis of this live performance. I am team usher so I guess I’m biased but I thought this show was incredible. Awesome reaction sir. I’ll purposely be looking for you again to see when you drop that Standing Next to You remix featuring Usher.

It’s refreshing to see live talent shines in the half time show. We haven’t seen that in a while.

My level of respect for Peter just went up even further after watching this 😁😆

there's a whole marching band and drumline out there also

I think I enjoyed watching your reaction and analysis along with the performance(s) than I did when I originally heard it. I did not think it was possible, but you just made it more . . . immersive.

They had some autotuning done for the broadcast. But if you watch the cellphone video of the performance, Alicia had a vocal crack or something of the sort. But the processing smoothed it out for her on the broadcast.

FINALLY!!! Someone reacting the way I expected my friends to!!! THAT MEDLEY!!! Those mixed beats in Yeah!!! This is my favorite of all time!! Thank you for posting this! I felt understood. Thank you!

The millennial nostalgia is real. Amazing weather we are having in AZ right now. At least in Avondale.

Loved your reaction.

The sheer joy in your reaction is just SO good! Glad to see you having such a good time, man!

Great reaction! Please react to Usher’s Tiny Desk Concert…you’ll love it

Peter, this was so much fun watching you geek out to the show!

Legend, LEGEND fuahblabuahYEAH. I LOOOOOOOOOOOVED this ❤❤❤ when I saw this during the Superbowl I was imagining you freaking out with me Peter!! I'm 34 yo and this is bringing so many memories up 🎉❤ looooved Usher . Still love him! This was so entertaining. Thank you Peter! My dream came true, watching with you.

Jackson state University band

Loved your reaction definitely had me tuned in ❤

First time here and I’m enjoying this man’s reaction almost as much as Usher’s show

This is soooo good. Great reaction!

I watched it live. They definitely swapped her vocals, maybe from rehearsals? She was pitchy in a couple of spots and searching for the note. Maybe a problem hearing? Still iconic though!

So great to see you so happy!!

Love your reaction Keep up the good work Thank you

Great analysis bro, learn a lot from you in this video, Thanks 👊🏾. Usher is a living legend. He is the the king of RnB 🐐👑

I would love to see your reaction to Ha Hyun Woo, a Korean rock band vocalist. He appeared on the show Masked Singer which So Hyang (6 wins) went on too and holds the record for most wins (9 wins). You should totally check out his cover of Lazenca, Save Me on that show!!!

Loved your reaction!❤

That was the most entertaining R&A yet! You were having way too much fun! 😅

*Enjoyed your reaction* ! *A+* !!

Loved seeing your reaction! And until today I wasn’t sure what a “riff” was! Thanks!😊

26:50 best reaction everrrrrr 🤣

Great reaction video

I've watched the halftime performance at least 20 times now. 🤷🏾‍♂️

At 25:48 you can see Usher trying to blink sweat out of his eyes. So he's singing THAT well, and dancing THAT well, while working through burning eyes. An underappreciated moment of stagecraft is when he sets the mic wobbling while he dances. I also love the inclusion of the marching band. Homage to so much college and high school football across the country, and giving the audience in the stands a good show from their distance. This was hands down one of the best Halftime shows. Right up there with Beyonce/Bruno Mars and Michael Jackson. Not Prince or Dr Dre level, but pretty close. (I must confess I have mixed emotions about your reaction to shirtless Usher. Especially after you used the Jinx pfp with it's colors and then Gaston, I thought /hoped you were a secret bi icon. And I'm mad at myself for making assumptions)

AKs rough started actually added to her performance. The after just pulled you in that much more

Just got to your fanboy moment over Burn, so relatable lol

Best halftime since MJ! The band is JSU’s Sonic Boom of the South.

I know this is my third comment, but that overlay of the limiter correction when you were shouting for Luda was hilarious. 🤣

Alicia Keys cracked at the start, but they edited the video uploaded on NFL. Her performance wasn’t perfect, but it makes it more real. With all the multitudes of performers lip syncing in halftime, I’d put two thumbs up for her (their) live performance

they cleaned up Alicias opening notes with autontune. She missed that whole first key

Yeah KZfaq edited out her vocals. Because the live version she did start off a little shakey. It was a voice crack.

React to the 50 yard line version of this performance. Then you'll hear Alicia live

Hey, can you do a reaction of "whisky in a jar", or "in the air tonight" covered by voiceplay?

Hi, I've just watched you on the Zombie review. Gret one there! I wonder if you've ever had got in contact with any Electric Callboy songs and did a reaction? If not, you MUST do so! I advise starting with their TEKKNO cover of Everytime we touch (original from Maggie Reilly; here covering the Cascada cover from the early 2000s). Or you go with an original from them: Hypa Hypa or We got the moves, for example.

You're listening to the edited version. She cracked on the beginning

💙🖤💙🖤

Would like to see your reaction to Home Free Skull and Bones

So you can jump on a recent performance, where is PTX’s Kiss from a Rose???

I knew you would really be in for a treat! Such a talented man. I encourage you to check out the song with Jungkook.

H.E.R. IS THE GUITARIST.

They switched it. her voice cracked at the beginning of her song

Great reaction! I forgot sometimes that you were (are?) really into Hip Hop. I've known several classically trained musicians and in particular Bass Opera singers and they definitely are NOT into Hip Hop/Soul/Pop/etc. I was extremely sheltered growing up especially when it comes to music. I grew up listening to a very conservative narrow window of Christian music, classical music, and a little bit of Old Western Music (Roy Rogers, Dale Evans, Sons of the Pioneers, Ect.) I gravitated towards the Western Music which lead me to Country as I got out of Highschool. I have a very eclectic taste in music now and can enjoy this even if I didn't really know many of the songs or Artists! I really hope they do a Country Halftime show one of these years! Imagine Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks, Shania Twain, George Strait. . . Talk about a concert!

You're a amazing and awesome and cool and beautiful singer and You're amazing and awesome and beautiful Opera Singer👍👍🔥🔥😎😎🐐🐐🐐👑👑👑🫅and I love your videos and I love your channel and I love your music🎶🎵🫅🐐🐐🐐👑👑👑🔥😎😎

They did swap out the first note where she cracked

They swap her vocals out, she had a ruff time

Atlanta where he come from is the A

Im not a big rap person ...so i really liked this performance more than the Snoop Dre performance...buti get whyoeople would like that one as well.

Did everyone in the stadium get 3 free months of Apple Music?

20:35 :)))))))

Apple music cleaned up alicias voice - it broke more than once :/

Alicia voice cracked st the beginning they fixed but the show was amazing

If y’all paying attention the best super bowel performance be the best when black artists and yes Micheal Jackson gets a past also we had price and all

Jackson state University band boom of the south

Wow people are talking more about Usher than the Super Bowl, I can’t blame them, since I can’t stand football anyway.

Sub.. for being hype for lil jon and luda... they dont get love enough...

What??? You have hair!!!! Like it much more🎉 why did you shave it off? This is coming from a barber ( no pun intended)

They edited her voice crack

Alicia key went off key on the first note but i think they fixed it. The rest was flawless

I feel like they edited her voice because they know that these videos are made for the show. Her voice was SO off during the live.

She had a bad start, but Apple corrected it with AI. I heard it live, it was bad, there are vids before and after. She had another out of tune that did not get the AI treatment. I hate that we are doing this now. Its what makes someone like Usher so special, he doesn't need AI.

Not even close.....I found it boring and not worthy. Compared to Rihanna's it was not great.

Ok. You are risking your reputation. It was a good performance but the vocals were way off on everyone. Stop pandering. You should have blasted the vocals quality. Smh 🤦‍♂️. Objective? 🤔. Not.
