the supposed Final Setlist of Madonna’s Sticky & Sweet Tour

I got this from MadonnaTribe

EXCLUSIVE
And here’s our latest update on the Sticky & Sweet track list. We heard that the list of songs that we report below is basically the FINAL one and it includes video and live interludes. But before going into it, here are some exclusive tidbits on what we will be seeing and hearing during this great show!

The show features four main section. The show opener, Candy Shop, has now a longer intro compared to the promo tour version. A musical intro a la Drowned World Tour, with bits and pieces of song form Hard Candy that we will be hearing later in the show fades into the “C-A-N-D-Y” intro from the promo tour.

The clock ticking theme from 4 minutes can be heard several times during the show. In the show intro, in Vogue and in the “Get Stupid” interlude, which reminds of the Confessions Tour’s Sorry Video interlude. In Get Stupid there are samples of Give It 2 Me, 4 Minutes and Beat Goes On and it’s about our chance to save our planet from the various damages we created.

The use of music samples is very big on this tour. Many of the classic hits are musically re-arranged as mash-ups and the songs are sung on musical tracks heavely sample-ing other dance songs. Like A Prayer, for example, which, as previously reported by M-Tribe, has entered the set list is now replacing Impressive Instant and it’s delivered using musical parts of the 1992 dance hit by Felix “Don’t You Want Me”.

Into The Groove, that contains a small sample of Madonna’s Jump, is also delivered using musical parts of another dance song “Toop Toop” by Cassius, while Borderline is a great “rocky/ska” re-invention of the classic 1983 ballad.

The first video interlude, a fast and speeded up version of the James Bond theme Die Another Day, features exclusive new footage of Madonna as a boxeur, from the brand new photoshoot by Tom Munro for the Tour Book.

The second video interlude mashes up Madonna’s Rain with the Eurythmics’ Here Comes The Rain Again, using their original version and leading to Devil Wouldn’t Recognize You. Originally supposed to play the piano herself on this song, Madonna will now be placed on the piano, reminessing a bit the Sooner Or Later performance from Blond Ambition.

After La Isla Bonita mixed with Lela Pala Tute, there’s a live interlude with Romanian/Gipsy song “Doli Doli” which is not sung by Madonna, who will be back on stage to close the section with a fierce rendition of the Accademy Award winning song “You Must Love Me” by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

I have to say that i am very very underwhelmed by this set list. I’m hoping that this is NOT the final and there will be some great surprises of songs we didn’t know about this.

If this IS the final setlist, them i’m not really sure what she was thinking. I think she could have been more fun with the songs she chose to sang.

What happened to Open your heart and who’s that girl? Dress you up? Angel and Everybody???

I thought this tour was supposed to be very 80’s.

well, its 18 days until the opening night. of course anything could change between now and then.

Despite all of this, we know its going to be a good show, it always is, i just wish she would have dug a little deeper for some good songs to play.
