Looks like Beyoncé wasn't the only showstopping singer at Super Bowl XLVII! Last night the soulful Alicia Keys serenaded fans at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans - and the result was hypnotic.

The performance didn't come without its nervousness, though. "One of the most watched games all year & I was on millions of TVs," Keys tweeted. "I was definitely feeling those butterflyz! #SB47."

Can you even imagine performing in front of all those people? Talk about major freakout!

Decked out in a stunning scarlet gown by Alia, Keys sat up straight and belted out a beautiful rendition at the piano. But this was no ordinary anthem. Her soulful voice - paired with shots of the troops in Afghanistan - made many fans emotional.

Did you get chills? We did! Keys even brought tears to the eyes of one football player on the Ravens team! We saw you, Number 51!

Keys tweeted out to her fans, "Tonight's @Superbowl experience was crazy! So much love to all of you! #SB47"

Aw! We love you, too!
