cp3176 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Hmm not sure its that atypical. There´s also Russian Roulette which resembles it. I find in general Rihanna songs quite melodic. For example I love both the songs she made with Eminem: I usually don't like straight hip hop but I find I do like the song if it has a melodic chorus hehe :) Oh yeah the songs with Eminem are great to me too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I don't find Beyonce to be the best either but I do like "Halo". Yes...melodic ! haha I love that song too. You know I do like some hip hop indeed but when it goes too full out rap and very little or insignificant melody it cant hold my attention or interest anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know I do like some hip hop indeed but when it goes too full out rap and very little or insignificant melody it cant hold my attention or interest anymore. Exactly, that's one Beyonce song I like (I think there was another one but I can't remember the name). And I like hip-hop if it has an actual melody but seriously one of my friends loves hip hop and he plays the satelite radio station one and like seriously they all sound the same, so freaking boring, no talent at all literally. I don't know how anyone could like a guy rapping on top of a fake drumbeat. Anyone can do that. It's nothing new, and it's boring, and there's barely and melody. The melodies they do have are very simple, 4-repeating notes melodies that never change. It's so boring, bland, and uninspired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeetaz Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 What is different: The halftime show will be broadcast in daylight hours, which presents lighting challenges. “Under the cover of darkness, you can use all kinds of theatrical tricks with the lighting—video and lasers,” Paine says. “In daylight, you have to figure out how to hide things.” Lighting director Bob Barnhart says he’s designed five completely different scenarios for the show, and will employ one based on the day’s weather. “Lighting doesn’t have a huge amount of artistic contribution this year.” Exactly what we have talked about before in this thread. I wonder if that takes anything away from how great it will look (i'm relatively sure it will). We have all seen huge stadiums being lit up with xylobands and are used to amazing lasers during clocks. Those things make a show extra special and produce an amazing atmosphere. This time, for the biggest show of them all, we don't have that. Not sure what to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not sure. I think its an art to come up with words and rhymes and make them fit in such a way that you can sing them as hip hop. It does take some skill imo. But yeah I also find it quite boring, simply because you take the "music" out of music :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but looking at the colourful stage they are building and imagining the confetti they might use or other stuff, I think it has the potential still to be very colourful and entertaining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeetaz Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Anyone can do that. Well, it's actually not as easy as it looks and sounds. You need some practice to handle your breathing, flow and on beat ryhmes. If you have never done it, it will probably sound terrible bad the first time you try it (or maybe you are very talented).

gai Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic's Youth Orchestra to Join Coldplay at Super Bowl Halftime Show Gustavo Dudamel VERN EVANS/LA PHIL BY MICHAEL MILLER @write_miller 01/28/2016 AT 01:00 PM EST The Youth Orchestra of Los Angeles, led by the LA Philharmonic music and artistic director Gustavo Dudamel, will join Coldplay during the Pepsi Super Bowl 50 Halftime Show. "This is a wonderful honor and an extraordinary showcase for YOLA, as well as a tribute to youth orchestras worldwide," said Dudamel. "When we play, it will be for the youth of the world so they can be inspired to create both a better life for themselves and a better future." Dudamel, a world renowned conductor, has built YOLA from the ground up, and through the program's partners, provides, "instruments, intensive music training, and academic support to more than 700 students from undeserved neighborhoods, empowering them to become vital citizens, leaders, and agents of change." Since it was established in Fall of 2007, YOLA has grown to serve 700 students, ages 6-18, in South L.A., the Rampart District and East L.A. Now, the children of the Youth Orchestra will have the opportunity to showcase their talents during the most watched musical event of the year. Last year alone, more than 118.5 million American viewers watched the show, marking the most-watched Halftime Show ever. In addition to playing alongside the seven time Grammy Award-winning Coldplay, there's also a rumor Beyoncé could be joining the lineup. The Super Bowl and Halftime Show will be broadcast worldwide Feb. 7 from Levi's Stadium in the San Francisco Bay area. people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I think Coldplay have a lot freedom to do what they want. I think the organisers are putting an emphasis on this being extra cool and extra impressive because its the 50th, but other than that, it will be a surprise to all what Coldplay prepare :) The only true restrictions I think are logistics because of the short time!

IneedYou23 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Is anyone a bit nervous for the band? I am a little to be honest. Just because I know how many millions of people tune in to watch the game and halftime show. They're saying the number of people viewing the halftime show this year will break last years record. Plus, given the fact how many people like to voice their dislike for the band. I usually get nervous for their live television performances anyways, but this is the Super Bowl. But while Im a little nervous, Im also very confident in the band at this point in their careers in pulling this off. I also know what a great live band they are and what great performers they are. I believe many people will be surprised by them. Im just wondering how the setlist is going to go and really how its all going to look like! I can't wait! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
