PoisonPill Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 7 hours ago, John Slayne said: I love Frozen (my fav Madonna song) and Music, but they are absolutely not her biggest classics. LAP, LAV, and Vogue are, followed by La Isla Bonita and Hung Up. I would argue that even Material Girl is bigger than Frozen/Music, but she hates that song so performing it was never an option. Her most popular/enduring hits are Vogue, Material Girl, LAP and LAV. 1
spree Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 funny how the haters who were laughing at her IG pics are now suddenly absent. Guess they were expecting a disaster and it's far from it. She looks sensational. 4

I don’t like when people say "it’s overplayed“ "She did it many times” so what? hits are overplayed, from all the artists , so? The setlist is fine for me, of course i will miss some songs (hit songs). She literally did it on every single tour since its release apart from Madame X. That’s unheard of for Madonna. I think it’s perfectly justified to leave it out here when she has far better songs that haven’t had as much attention.
Spark Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) I went second night, and left during Rain because it was getting late and didn't want to be squashed on the tube (thank ****!). Honestly, didn't care about the last three songs so the curfew didn't bother me much. The show is amazing. I don't think i've seen a show of that scale with pacing that good (apart from the abrupt ending even on opening night). Loved seeing Beyoncé and Gaga but most people around me used the interludes to sit down, but during Madonna most people were UP the whole show cause something was always happening on the stage even if interludes were going on. Overall, I think she did a good job of pleasing diehard fans and the general public. I hope she changes the ending on future dates though. The setlist is perfect, but ending the show with a bunch of 2010s songs (her least popular) is so odd. I also think Music and Confessions are under-represented (and Erotica/American Life are a bit over-represented). Also wish she swapped out the Gloria Gaynor cover with Secret or something.

T.O.A.D.S. Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 So some people at the London show were complaining that she performed songs they didn't know etc. But 6 of her 10 biggest UK singles are on the set list in some capacity. Note: Vogue is #11 on the list https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/madonna-s-official-top-40-biggest-selling-singles__8266/ Into The Groove Like A Virgin Crazy For You Papa Don’t Preach (snippet) Hung Up Like A Prayer

I’d much rather her go the fan request route like S&S and sing parts of songs we haven’t heard before, but secret would be amazing.
GlamSlam Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 It's her third London date tonight. Hope she finishes the show. lol 4
C_Colstead Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 It's my show tonight! My second time seeing her (first was the legendary Confessions Tour). I hope she's on time, but regardless, I know the show will be over by 11pm! 4

helpthomas Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 i actually love that she’s singing live with a real time pitch corrector/auto-tune. it’s tuned well imo and makes the live vocal sound very crisp and compressed like any other studio recording. it only felt a bit strong during the ballads, especially bad girl night 1. but they really fiddled with the correction for night 2 from what i’ve seen on youtube and it sounds great! and honestly, she’s the only pop star i’ll excuse for using backing tracks during full segments, like erotica. it’s just conversational anyways.
