The Super Bowl halftime show is just around the corner. Super Bowl 50 will be played Sunday, Feb. 7, at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The Super Bowl might be football's biggest night, but the REAL reason lots of people tune in is the Half Time Show!

It's already confirmed that the NFL decided Chris Martin and his band will head up the major show on February 7. Since this is the 50th Super Bowl, the NFL will also definitely showcase other acts in addition to Coldplay. The performance is slated to highlight "the past, present and future of music." Beyonce will join Coldplay for Super Bowl 50's halftime show. Frontman Chris Martin is pals with Beyonce and her husband, rapper Jay Z.

Many legendary acts have taken the stage through the years, and with Super Bowl 50 right around the corner, we thought we'd countdown eight of the absolute BEST Half Time performances through the years so far.
