American Idol |
The American Idol Taylor Swift performed “Guilty As Sin?” " for the first time during one of his concerts on the "Eras" tour, and used the 89th concert of the tour to create a mashup of songs from his album "1989".
The moment took place during the singer's second of three performances in Sweden last week, which also marked the 89th concert of her record-breaking "Eras" tour.
For Swift, the number 89 has a certain significance: not only is 1989 the year she was born, but it also marks the title of her successful fifth album which she shared in 2014. So, to celebrate the occasion by Sweden, the pop legend had a few surprises during the set.
They took place as Swift launched into the surprise songs section of the live show, which usually sees her perform two songs that aren't usually in the setlist. But for the second concert in Stockholm, she offered the audience four titles.
The first was the beginning of “Guilty As Sin?” – a track from his latest album “The Tortured Poets Department”, which was performed live for the first time.
"Welcome to the acoustic session," she said before launching into the song (via Rolling Stone). “When we do a show like this, it's just not the case, we don't even feel like we're exerting any energy, because you're just fueling us all night.
“Thank you for being that kind of crowd.” You know, it makes me want to play one of my favorite songs from ‘Tortured Poets’ that I’ve never played live before,” she added. Find images of the performance below.
It was from there that Swift delivered another surprise to the audience by performing a mashup of three songs from the album “1989” to mark the 89th concert.
“It’s crazy because it really feels like the beginning of the tour,” Swift said while sitting at a piano. “But this is actually our 89th show. » From there, she performed a hybrid of “Say Don't Go” – taken from the Vault version of the album – as well as 1989's “Welcome to New York” and “Clean”.
The setlist surprises were also seen the following night, as Swift wrapped up the finale of her three shows in the city and released the first-ever rendition of "How Did It End?" from “The Tortured Poets Department" double album.
Swift will continue to perform across Europe and will visit the UK and Ireland in June. This will include eight shows at Wembley Stadium in London this summer as part of the run, with support from Paramore.
Her concerts are expected to boost the British economy to the tune of £1 billion. Although most of the money will likely be spent on accommodation, tickets, transport and merchandise, an estimated fifth of the 1.1 million ticket holders for the singer's 15 UK dates Uni in June and August will purchase new outfits specifically for concerts.
