He’s such a boring performer. All these hits and no energy whatsoever. Yeah that entire f**king entire build up to Blinding Lights, I’m calling BS

He murdered that performance! God damn I didn’t know he was this good live.

He was no Lady Gaga or Prince but then again he wasn't Justin or Adam either. I reckon Abel was singing to a backing track.

He did what he could with such limitations due to COVID and delivered a great live performance, very solid vocals.

All i can say is RIP In Your Eyes and its chance of re entering. But that was a beautiful and amazing performance

It was fine I guess. To expect more would’ve been silly.

Yeah that was great, most notably the climax. I was expecting Wicked Games, but eh, it beat M5 and even Timberlakes

For being the moody visual artist that he is, that was completely underwhelming. Especially after hearing what he spent out of pocket - you couldn’t afford drones?

Loved the halftime! I only wish that "Save Your Tears" got more time!

I’m disappointed. Amazing artist, amazing setlist but I expected a bit more “Daft Punk” type of technology. There was no wow factor, like when Gaga did that acrobatic jump or when Katy came out during Dark Horse and the graphics were phenomenal. I never felt that way with this. Amazing setlist tho, and Blinding Lights is a total classic.

It felt like a performance that could be on any award show. It didn’t feel like a halftime show. He’s pretty boring. The highlights were the fireworks and set.

Wasn’t there a rumor his set was going to be 24 mins long?

because of this he gave 7 million? I mean, the performance was great, cool setlist, he did a wonderful job...BUT, even tho he's my favorite artist rn, I'll be honest - I expected more. I really liked the BL part, and I was really bored during "Earned It". Maybe Shakira/JLo set the bar high last year, idk. but still, great job Abel! AND SAVE YOUR TEARS DESERVED BETTER THAN like 30 SECONDS?

I really enjoyed it. I thought he sounded great and it was interesting visually. I think he did the best he possibly could have given the COVID restrictions.

It could've been better, having in mind the covid restrictions and all, he did good. I agree I lost interest when "Earned It" started to play, and it felt too long, should've given more time to "Save Your Tears" The ending was killer, though.

I will say, it would’ve been cool if Daft Punk came in, and chances are, they would slay every single past performance.

A lot of people on my timeline saying it’s the worst halftime show ever. I wonder why.

My timeline is also full of negative feedback. I think last year's show was just too good.

The performance was pretty good, not Katy level good but good enough.
The highlight was definitely Blinding lights. The whole performance built up to it. Earned it was good also.
I think he would of benefited from having a guest appearance personally. I'm not sure who but I think it would of pushed this from a good performance to a great one.
But anyway, this performance reminded me how much I miss seeing people who I love perform their music live and put on a show.
