My perfect Chromatica Ball setlist


Gagadonna

Featured Posts

Gagadonna

Hello y'all. I've always been obsessed with imagining the perfect setlist for each of her tours (imagine my frustration at @artRAVE), and I wanted to show you how I see my perfect Chromatica Ball. 

So, here is the setlist. For each act, I will provide the songs and some context with the theme, storyline and outfits. I may also link an audio of how I imagine the song to sound like. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LADY GAGA PRESENTS: THE CHROMATICA BALL TOUR

Plot Like the Monster Ball and Born this Way Ball, Chromatica Ball tells a story. It's about Gaga finding her way into art, eventually losing herself in the indistry, and fighting back for her life to recover the part of her identity that she lost. It's about darkness and light, demons and angels, hurting and healing. A true journey of self-rediscovery through music, love and self-care. 

Length : bit less than 2 hours

Setlist : see two setlists (I know there are many songs but they fit 2 hours on my Spotify playlist and yet the songs are full there so it should work)

First version (with 30 tracks) :  

Spoiler

I do agree with Alice being the opener, however I think BR & Babylon should close the final act and ROM being the encore with (fake) rain.
