Here's mine(solos):
"Lovefool"
"Creep"
"Seven Nation Army" If Haley does 3 solos, then I agree with these 3. Creep is a must, for obvious reasons; Lovefool is a perfect vehicle to highlight the richness of Haley's voice; and she just kills it with SNA, based on today's release. Although she sings it beautifully, I'm not a big fan of Habits, and Oops is a cute novelty, but not in the same league with the others.
One little nit about Lovefool - when Haley introduces the song she sometimes swallows the word "lovefool" when she says "this song is dedicated to all you love fools out there." One time I thought it sounded like she said "all you waffles out there." She should just slow down and emphasize the word a bit more, as some of the audience may not be familiar with the song and not know what she just said. Not a big deal though.

RE: 2015 PMJ North American Tour
It would also be easy to replace habits with SNA and not disturb the flow. I agree; if she wants to dress to impress, I don't think oops is gonna cut it. But I don't hate it or feel indifferent about it like some do. I really love the video. To me though there was such a heavy backlash to it in the beginning that I don't think it's going to really bring in new fans. (I knew the song before though, so maybe that's why I didn't notice the pronunciation? To me I could understand her perfect though.)
It's also a nice contrast. Lovefool has that quirky quality. It's a nice, fun introduction to Haley. Creep is just riveting and a crowd pleaser. Then bring home the thunder with SNA. Habits hasn't changed its position--I don't think--since she began touring. But its kind of an anti-climatic song after creep. I think SNA would be a much better closing solo for her; it would leave people saying, "darn, this girl can sing!"
It would also go from smooth, to smooth with some grit behind it, to full on growl. Lol

Thing about habits, it's 'sing song' people like to sing to it and people like to whistle along with Haley
I think Lovefool will give way to Ooops they haven't performed it, while Lovefool was performed in both tours, Europe and US.
Also, Britney Spears is way way bigger than the Cardigans so will likely be very much a crowd pleaser. Haley could really vamp it up too
Creep is a no brainer
