Bruno Mars' Super Bowl halftime performance went down well with Twitter users, with the majority of Super Bowl viewers praising his 12 minute set.
The singer gave an energetic show, airing hits 'Treasure', 'Locked Out of Heaven' and 'Just The Way You Are', as well as thrashing out a drum solo and collaborating with guests Red Hot Chili Peppers for a rendition of 'Give It Away'.
It seems Mars impressed viewers with his performance, with many Twitter users calling his show the best part of the Super Bowl. However, loyal Beyonce fans also took to the social networking site to constantly remind everyone of her show-stopping halftime set last year.
