I thought Tom Petty & Co. were a lot better than Prince myself.
Though I will say those were far from the best live versions of those songs that I've heard.
I think, it's the fact that Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers actually look like they're having a good time playing music and that they'd play just as well and with just as much natural enthusiasm and energy if they were playing at some suburban picnic for a couple dozen people than at the Superbowl.
Prince acted like...well...Prince.
Pretentious as hell and so wrapped up in himself that I'm amazed he knew where he was at all.
I dunno. He's just a lot of bland pop music to me.
But that's just one man's opinion.
