With Keith Urban set to take the stage tomorrow at the 107th GreyCup, d_morassutti ranks the CFL title game's best-ever halftime shows – and remembers some of the worst.

Growing up as a big CFL supporter, Blue Rodeo’s Jim Cuddy was looking forward to playing the Grey Cup and gave fans a chance to pick the songs they performed. Talk about giving the people what they want.

Not only was she actually singing in the frigid weather in Edmonton, she had a bit of everything in her performance. The drum line was an especially nice touch considering they weren’t just for show.2. The Tragically Hip Gord Downie always had a flair for the big stage, and this halftime show wasn’t any different. The band performed “Gus: The Polar Bear from Central Park” and “Courage,” which was a big hit in the nation’s capital. It’s too bad they only performed two songs and didn’t get another chance to grace the stage, but we can count ourselves lucky that we got it at all.
