Prince and the greatest ever Super Bowl performance

The world is mounting the loss of Prince today, truly one of the best musicians of all time.

The NFL world paid tribute remembering what is arguably the greatest ever Super Bowl halftime performance.

At Super Bowl XLI Prince blew everyone away. Everyone.

So often the performances are a tad listless. Musical montages from past it, albeit huge, stars.

But Prince, man it was sublime, bombastic, mesmerising. It was Prince.

The only part of the Super Bowl XLI more memorable than his musical performance was his Super Bowl press conference.

After opening the floor to journalists he ripped into a guitar-shredding set the moment the first question was asked.

It lasted 15 minutes. Two minutes more than he played at the halftime show.

RIP Prince. You are missed.
