The setlist is so basic I'm considering selling my tickets... so no, I don't like it :huntyga:

No

 

 

But I’ll forgive her as long as she keeps “Million Reasons” off of it :ohwell:

I just need SFA added because I've been dreaming for a mosh pit during the bridge since chromatica came out lol

I watched the whole concert again and I decided that yes I do mostly like it, I feel like I can see the story that she's telling starting in beginning/act 1 thru the middle.. it kind of goes off story for the second half and I think would make more sense with SFA to transition from the darkness and pain into healing.. but it still works I think?

Even Hold My Hand, which kind of is weird at the end, it does make sense in terms of the story so it's fine. It just kind of clashes stylistically but wtv

One thing I think could help is if people sing along more with HMH cause I just heard her singing :laughga: hopefully it rise in the charts and ppl get to know it better and sing it with her :huntyga:

I hate it.

Sorry but I can't express it any other way.

Opening with Bad Romance is a choice.

Having 0 of the album tracks for which the tour is intended for in the opening segment is also a choice.

Doing Telephone, Bad Romance and Monster but not doing anything from ARTPOP is criminal.

Same with LoveGame, Just Dance and Pokerface without including anything of Joanne (Perfect Illusion would have fit just perfectly!)

I mean at this point, I don't think many fans would mind skipping Just Dance, LoveGame and Telephone. Yes, they are hits but not thé biggest of that respectively album.

Hold My Hand in the setlist is already a choice, let alone as the closing track.

I always envisioned Rain On Me as the closing track with an extended break and intro mixed with some Demo parts (especially the pre-chorus of the Demo with the "ooh-ooh-ooh") included and ending with an instrumental outro, ending the show as a true party.

A ballad to close the supporting album tour that's heavily inspored by dance/disco/... music is a choice to say the least.

I just feel Hold My Hand doesn't fit with the theme at all.

Same for Shallow and ARUTW but at least those are really big hits so she gets away with them.

 

Nah...this tour's setlist is a mess and it honestly reads as if it was quickly put together like "let's do the big hits and throw some albums tracks after it et voila".

Finish with a 2nd Encore of Sine From Above after HMH.

I thought of SFA going in the middle for a transition out from her trauma, but encore after HMH would be great too

I hate seeing "Hold My Hand" slander here especially when we want her to win another Oscar for the song.

She has to promote the **** out of it because the production could right now be torn between HMH and that OneRepublic song for submission.

Um no TBH, I don't understand why she removed SFA, Plastic Doll and Fun Tonigh but she is still performing Just Dance, Poker Face, Love Game and Telephone, I think it's time to remove the songs from The Fame. She could add MTN, Hair, HML, Venus, G.U.Y, Sexxx Dreams, Gypsy or Perfect Illusion.

At first I found it a mess, but another user explained how the story is her becoming famous (the hits) > her trauma > her wrong attempts to self medicate (with drugs, sex etc) > her healing. So with that in mind I think the setlist mostly makes sense.

 

But I cannot fathom why after the whole ARTPOP petition last year she thought "people want to hear Lovegame and Telephone". What??? I really hope she switches them for ARTPOP songs, or at least some of the missed Chromatica ones. Surely in that bloated ballad section she could switch something with 1000 Doves or Fun Tonight.

The craziest omission to me is SFA. It's essentially the album's title track, what the whole thing is about. Why would she skip that? I hope she adds it but I feel like it shouldve been the centrepiece of the show, so dunno how she'd add it retrospectively.

 

HMH as the encore is fine - remember an encore is supposed to just be a little extra, not the big finale. Which ROM is the perfect choice for.

I knew the tour would come when she cuts Alejandro (even in Europe, where I understood it to be a hit). Very grateful she killed the Alejandro vocals on JWT and I’m sure she’ll bring it back someday. 

Haven’t seen any videos from the tour but the setlist seems okay? Def think Sine should have been included.

Of all her tours I’ve seen, I was most impressed with JWT setlist.

Edit: so there’s really no ARTPOP and Joanne? Wow, well; she has so much to choose from nowadays.

Tbh... I quite hate it. Where the f**k is "Paparazzi"? :saladga: I mean.. I really don't understand why she chose to remove it from the show since it's her favourite song from "The Fame" too. In addition, why did she decide to sing "Monster" and all those piano ballads instead of more Chromatica?? I can't get throught the fact that she also removed "Plastic Doll", "Sine From Above" and "Fun Tonight". It doesn't seem a Chromatica Tour at all. I didn't get any Chromatica vibes. And I also hate the fact that she didn't open with "Chromatica I + Alice". Of course she had to sing "Bad Romance", but I think it's more a song to close the show with (not something you put at the beggining of it). It would have been very nice to follow the Chromatica tracklist order, placing some of her previous tracks between 2 Chromaticas. What do you think? :reductive:

Mhm... That's why she is the artist and you are the public

I thought the same with HMH at first too, but I changed my mind I think it does fit, as she goes back to the start of her career in the beginning and the trauma w Replay/Monster/911 and then starts healing in second half, then at the end w HMH it's like she is then extending the healing to others offering her hand to help us

I agree that Shallow and ARUTW don't fit but yeah she kinda has to do Shallow. And ARUTW actually was so nice of a moment between her and the audience :bradley:

I think all of us need to be vocal to Gaga (in a respectful way of course) that we want to hear specific songs over others. She removed Fashion from the Artrave because apparently fans weren't feeling it at all. Let her know on Twitter (again, respectfully), and who knows, she might just change it up. It wouldn't be the first time!

I think the setlist is... fine. I'm absolutely done with hearing LoveGame and Telephone at shows, especially when SFA and Plastic Doll, or even 1000 Doves could be in there. As much as I love Monster, I wish she replaced that with an ARTPOP song that she hasn't done in awhile.
