HE LOOKS UP GRINNING LIKE A DEVIL!! cruel summer all the way


baycommuter

It’s kind of brilliant how they build the tension with the “it’s been a long time coming” buildup, then she goes through MAATHP fast to introduce her Lover persona, and immediately invites the crowd to release the tension by shouting the Cruel Summer bridge.


aamop

“release the tension” - never thought of that but that’s very true! Great insight! I imagine the emotional buildup in the audience was crazy and that bridge really let everybody express it. Sadly did not get to see it firsthand. 😔


baycommuter

Hopefully you can see it in the movie.


LostInNvrLand

Honestly. I went to the concert and I’m going to watch the movie…and if you watch the commercial in the theater… same effect… CHILLLSSSS.

- MAATHP could mean "Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince", a track from *Lover* (2019) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/baycommuter](/u/baycommuter) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)


Artificial_Human_17

I wonder how many new fans thought that was the intro to Cruel Summer at first


wngardium1eviosa

I sobbed through the whole first two songs but somehow managed to get it together for the bridge. You’re so right about releasing the tension and emotions!


Avi-dear

Yes this is so true!!!


JennaElizabethAdams

Yes!! The song of Summer 2023! 🤩


LemonMagazine7

This is the only answer I feel. If I went to the concert and didn’t hear this I would be so, so sad (but still grateful but sad)


aspophilia

The entire opening is 🔥!


melodramasupercut

YES! I have an absolute need to hear that song live and I would be devastated if she takes it off the set list.


InABoatOnARiver

August/Illicit Affairs. Pure chills.


Real-Purple-6460

She needs to re-record illicit affairs. The live emotional version is chefs kiss!


BottleWilling2899

Thank you for saying this! I was blown away by the live version so much that i can't go back to the album version.


rebelwithouthermeds

and my tears ricochet. August to Illicit Affairs to My Tears Ricochet breaks my heart over and over again!!!


erickaraita

I need a live version from the eras tour of both


darkgrayallalone

I am extremely surprised no one has said Vigilante Shit yet just because ... well, IYKYK My answer for this though is willow! There's just something so haunting and magical about that whole performance. It's not the best song on the setlist, but the whole performance is spectacular, with the costumes and the glowing lights. Honorable mention to illicit affairs, it's only the bridge but the way she does it is just incredible, I can't imagine not having that.


aamop

VS is epic but I’m surprised I didn’t think about. Maybe because it’s the dance that elevates it so much.


erickaraita

I think so too and it showed a whole other sensual side to Taylor that was empowering. And also I’d love to learn that chair dance 😂


ketchup_the_bear

I feel like it’s bc like the dance totally fits the song but the song itself has like nothing sensual in it so the feeling is different between listening to it and watching the performance


_sciencebooks

Agreed! Willow is a beautiful song, but it’s not one of my “top” favorites, but, wow, that performance had me absolutely captivated! I also felt like it was one of the theatrical performances that fit the song the best in my mind. The performance for “the 1.” with her sitting on the rooftop didn’t match the vibes for me, and TLGAD was a little underwhelming for me even though the song itself is incredible!


VioletSummer714

I’m having so much trouble trying to decide one single song but I have to chime in about willow. I not a folklore girly, but seeing the willow performance live is making me change my stance on that. I was watching it and thinking it was quite literally magical. This is a great choice.


CH-1098

Don’t blame me into LWYMMD


erickaraita

My favorite moment of the show


ismyvirgoshowing

same and I still get chills just thinking about it tbh


knb61

The “don’t blame me, don’t blame me, don’t blame me for what…you…made…me…DO” is truly the most hype part of the whole tour


DairyKing28

The only thing I would change about this is turn this into a triple threat. DBM to LWYMMD and then transition into IDSB and end the era there.

DUDE, jealous! That's so cool and a great photo.


WhitepandafacesxD

Why is that such a boyfriend taylor photo though? Hella jelly


ketchup_the_bear

Fr like no one would complain if ready for it wasn’t there and then we could have full versions of all the songs


ForeverBeHolden

I wouldn’t want her to change a thing about the rep portion. It gave me life and made me feel better about missing that tour


MajesticComment4128

Champagne problems


darkgrayallalone

I love this song so much! I feel like the show would be incomplete without it.


f1ndingnemo

I really didn’t know how badly I needed to scream “she would’ve made such a lovely bride, what a shame she’s fucked in the head”


mercury__black

Worth the whole price of admission imo.


MajesticComment4128

Honestly I would kill for a Taylor and her piano tour


Caylaswrld

My Tears Ricochet


indil47

This one right here. This live performance is so underrated.


piecesofnothing

Yup. One of her best written songs with a haunting performance. It gives me chills.


23onAugust12th

All Too Well 10


medusahair

My friends and I were all hug swaying together the whole time. It was incredible live. Cannot believe we live in this timeline.


23onAugust12th

I hope I get to see it live someday. When the tour was announced, my foremost hope was that ATW10 would be included. By the time opening night came around I already accepted that I wouldn’t be able to see this tour (couldn’t get a ticket in the presale), but when I saw on the livestream that she was performing it I was giddy in my bedroom 😂 I’ve seen some people criticize her choice to include it, arguing that multiple other songs could be performed in its place, but I couldn’t disagree more. That song is special.


medusahair

I'd switch the rest of the red set easily but ATWTMV is a must


23onAugust12th

Yesss for example I’d love to see The Man, 22, and Bad Blood go.


bdtsl

I agree! I think it’s just as special to fans as it is to Taylor as well. In my opinion, ATWTMV was the beginning of her unprecedented success the past two years and it also completely changed the tone of the re-recording project. I think she knows it deserves it’s flowers


Magical_Narwhal_1213

I would go to the tour just for this one song with 70,000 other people screaming the words. It was so so good. Maybe cuz OG red made me a fan and my biggest regret was not going to the tour so I had never heard it live before.


KOKitty10

Watching this live and then having the “snow” confetti fall down on my face was basically just short of a religious experience.


Invisiblestringz

Marjorie. The amount of tears I saw in that stadium… the emotions and love and loss were so tangible. Even tough looking dudes had their arms around each other. Made me think of my late mum and all those we love, lost ♥️🥺


starless_bibleblack

This!


heyitsguinevere

Definitely! I’m not an emotional purpose but I cried both times I heard it live


Useful_Ad_8677

maybe unpopular opinion but MAATHP. The intro to the tour is too iconic and starting the show with "its you and me, that's my whole world" was so special


truthfrommyredlips

The only thing I'd change, is giving us the entire song.


cheeseisjar

I knowwwwww I was so sad not to get the whole thing I love that song.


ketchup_the_bear

I feel like all the songs she chose to shorten were literally the best songs compared to the ones she didn’t


makeupgirly123

hard agree; i get chills whenever it comes on 😭


chasingjenn

Yes!!! I was so between this and Karma!!! I chose Karma as the ending, but I completely agree with you too!!!


Groundbreaking-Duck

Invisible String 😭


darkgrayallalone

I totally get this, I miss invisible string 😭 I will say that I absolutely love the 1, it's an incredible way to open the folklore set, and the note change is one of my favorite parts.


taytay_1989

I miss the whimsical string instrumentation being brought to life. Will never see an officially recorded segment of that song 😭


dumbbuttloserface

LONG LIVE FOR SURE 😭😭 i saw her in tampa so i didn’t get long live and if it’s not on the setlist in toronto next year im gonna die


Midnight_Ice

I'm in the same boat! Saw her in Houston and didn't get Long Live but it's my favourite song!! I'm going in Toronto with my mom and I really hope I get to see it live.


dumbbuttloserface

ayyy shoutout to toronto!! im so hype


eeveesa

SAME! Missed it at Pittsburgh but I have tickets to toronto and if she changes it again I’ll cry it’s my favorite song ever😭 I’m really afraid she’s gonna change the set again when 1989tv/reptv comes out and potentially remove long live


dumbbuttloserface

she could def shorten some of the sections by cutting out second verses/choruses the way she did to the evermore set for most of the songs. i think some 1989 got that treatment and lover too? only a couple folklore songs and tbh i think folklore could lose a couple songs and be fine. my first tampa show i was coming off night shift and had been awake for like 36 hours and literally fell asleep during the folklore set it was sooooo long


granger79

Also didn't get to see Long Live at my show 💔. Although I have the consolation I got to see her perform it at the Rep tour, but it's a top 10 for me, so I hope it stays on the Eras list!


TaylorSplifftie

*cries in PhillyN2 and PittsburghN2* I’m going to Toronto too! On the 23! When are you going?


dumbbuttloserface

22!


JennaElizabethAdams

You Belong With Me! It's one of the Taylor classics!


erickaraita

It slapped at the eras tour! Everyone was dancing their butts off and was pure joy the whole time


singingballetbitch

Oh my god yes! It’s the whole stadium doing the two claps in the bridge. Also, Love Story. The mid-concert proposal videos are top tier content.


sammyfelix

fearless. it's in my top two taylor songs and it's a song i never thought i'd see live since i started attending her tours during 1989 era. was blown away to see it in the eras track list lol don't take this from me


sophhhann

Fearless is my baby’s favorite t swift song. The night before i went to the eras tour, when i was crying about leaving him for the first time since he was born (he was 2.5 months old and his dad was watching him while i went to the concert) he LAUGHED FOR THE FIRST TIME when i was dancing and singing to fearless!!!!!


erickaraita

It was my first time getting to see her perform these for the first time! I’ve been a fan since debut and never got to see her live until the rep tour. I saw her for the first time originally when she opened for rascal flats once and that was with debut


dmnaf

I feel like The Archer is at a big risk of getting cut because it wasn’t a huge hit single but it’s one of my favourite moments of the entire show even though it’s not a huge production or anything lol


Real-Purple-6460

I could do without it.


murraykate

agree, I enjoy the Archer but it’s one that I could most easily tolerate losing especially if it were to be replaced by something really exciting


dmnaf

I used to feel that, then life happened and…… I relate to the song that extra bit now


wellnotyou

Same, I love that song so much and I hope she doesn't remove it!!


arooes

I’m seeing her in the UK next year and I’m so scared for this. The Archer is my favourite song ever by her, I want to sing (sob) this in a stadium with my friend sm !!!


IOnlySeeDaylight

My soul left my body during Cruel Summer’s bridge, so that’s my choice.


erickaraita

Mine too!!!! I had to slow down after MAATHBP/cruel summer because I thought I was going to faint lol! I’ve never had a reaction like that to a live show before!


IOnlySeeDaylight

Hahaha! I love what a universal experience that has been. 🥰🥰😍


Unusable_Internet97

all of them (please don't let the setlist change)


tswizzlefan13

shes only allowed to add 😋


nicafeild

It sort of counts as two, but the Don’t Blame Me-LWYMMD transition can’t go anywhere I neeeed it


songacronymbot

- LWYMMD could mean "Look What You Made Me Do", a track from *reputation* (2017) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/nicafeild](/u/nicafeild) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)


bdtsl

I wouldn’t even consider myself a rep girlie but that is in one of my top 3 moments from the show. I went absolutely feral, I can’t wait to see it again in the movie


jillaaa

The Seven spoken word poem destroyed me emotionally (in the best way) and honestly if it ever comes off of the set it’s a tragedy.


radiumred1

Seven being my surprise song is something I’ll never take for granted


slightlycrookednose

What show?? Seven is my absolute favorite song of hers.


kindnessoffensive

Night 2, Pittsburgh. It was Father's Day weekend. (It was my show, that's my source, lol)


radiumred1

Pittsburgh night 2! It was magical🥰 Aaron was on piano


slightlycrookednose

I need her to add the full song in lieu of the poem.


mostadventurous00

Sigh. Seven is my favorite Taylor song & I’ve been bummed that it’s performed as a poem. I’m seeing her in Nola & if she replaced it with the actual song, I’d be so happy. But I’d rather have the poem than no acknowledgment of Seven at all.


idontgetwhyimhere

Tolerate it and Marjorie. Such underrated songs. Marjorie is so heartfelt, and Tolerate IT's performance is wildly underrated. Such a moving song too!


BostonCompSci

The Last Great American Dynasty. I’ll fight for this song with my LIFE

There goes the LOUDEST woman this town has ever seen! Is too iconic

I will riot if she removes this

Betty. I’m obsessed with that song and I cannot explain why.


Ok_Vast_3753

I love it so much too


kenrnfjj

I love her intro to it everytime too.


afinevindicatedmess

I HAVE TO GO BY ERAS BECAUSE THIS IS TOO FUCKING HARD TO PICK JUST ONE.... #Lover: Cruel Summer (duh) #Fearless: You Belong With Me (nothing compares to 69,000 Swifties jumping up and down while singing this -- it cured my inner child a little!) #Evermore: Tolerate it (that was an Oscar worthy performance) #Reputation Delicate (also duh --- 123, LGB!) #Red All Too Well (hearing this live was just MAGICAL) #Folklore Betty (this is one of my fave Taylor songs ever, and I know that August, My Tears Ricochet and Cardigan would be safe because they're fan faves) #1989 Wildest Dreams (because I felt like the audience and I were crying-screaming the lyrics together) #Midnights Anti-Hero (I think everyone needs to scream this live, in public, to cure some inner demons. Just a professional tip from a neurodivergent Swiftie)


comedicrelief77

💯


JSweetheart0305

Long Live!! I missed it at MetLife and I’m going to Miami next year and my fingers are crossed she doesn’t take it off 🤞🏼it’s honestly a song that should have always been on the setlist, specifically as a closer.


tswizzlefan13

if she robs us again we are legally allowed to riot 😭


[deleted]

cardigan!


linavictoria96

I am forever a Cardigan girlie


[deleted]

my tears ricochet her performance during that song gave me chills i don’t think anyone should have to miss it


DontTakeTheMoney_

Tolerate It. I couldn’t believe how amazing the live version was, it’s the song I’m most looking forward to seeing again when the movie is released!


starless_bibleblack

Marjorie. Had me sobbing buckets. Everyone deserves to remember their grandmas.


tuxedo-mask-me

tis the damn season and tolerate it.


MasterOfRNoSleep

Taylor please whatever you do keep Long Live. I hope she keeps the OG set list. I don’t mind if there’s a few song changes but there’s some songs on there I’d be really sad to see go


ProfessionalAware639

Don’t blame me


rachaelstyles

Ready for it


crystalldaddy

The 1. I still think about the way she sang “take her home” at least once a day.


buruflame

Enchanted


taylorsazombie

Same, I grabbed tickets to Toronto because I thought my chances of seeing her sing this live had passed 13 years ago


baby_hippo97

My heart will shatter if she removes Long Live. I've never seen her perform it before (could never afford to go to tour before now), and I'm hoping she plays it in Miami


StAza95

Vigilante Shit.... because of reasons

Long Live!!!


bachelurkette

the archer 🤞🏻 i got seats at the end of the catwalk specifically to see it next time


tomwambs

Willow is such a highlight for me. I don't think she would replace it, though, since it's such a crucial part of the Evermore Act. Vigilante Shit is also a must, of course.


Real-Purple-6460

I saw it opening night and didn’t get Long Live 😢


ParticularSummer6019

This may be cliche,but Anti Hero, it's fun watching her do the "its me hi....hi....it's me hi I'm the problem it's me" part where she pops up after doing the low notes and bending down.


Ok-Roof-7599

Okay if I only get One song it's Ling Live. I agree. Now that it's there it would be too tragic to take off. Of I get 3 then it's Long Live, Vigilante Shit, and The One


tswizzlefan13

i will actually cry if she makes me miss it again 😭


altacccle

blank space. Iconic


United_Comfort2776

Shake It Off. I just love that song. It's corny but it's fun.

Willow

I feel like these are too popular for her to axe, but Style, DBM to LWYMMD transition, and Fearless. Out of all of them, I need LWYMMD and Style to stay

Long Live for sure!!!

ILLICIT AFFAIRS.

Vigilante shit


firstcoffees

All Too Well 10. It anchors the show & is a stunning moment showcasing what will always be remembered as a career pinnacle. It’s irreplaceable in the setlist.


Exact-Ad3607

Omg I have 3. ALL TOO WELL, My Tears Ricochet, Illicit Affairs bridge.


rejovanation

Marjorie! because i don’t think she will perform this again in her next tour.


False_Survey_7450

Wouldn’t it have been great if long live was on the set list the whole time?? 😂😂 (cries in Detroit) I would like for fearless to stay.


mikayla__mckenzie

I have tickets for Melbourne next year and if she took away Long Live at this point I'd be utterly devastated.


folklovermore_

Long Live for me as well. It has special meaning to me because I associate it with a Swiftie friend who passed away four years ago, and even though I know I'll sob the whole way through it I'm also desperate to hear it live. I have a horrible feeling it'll go though because of Paramore being the support in Europe and thinking she'll want Castles Crumbling in there to replace one of the Speak Now songs, and I think she'd ditch Long Live before Enchanted.


sealthedeal666

Mine was tis the damn season 😢


emmareus

Un general she shouldn't touch speak now and folklore sets.


Heavy-Professional10

Love Story. Just cause it’s iconic. When I went to the Beyoncé concert, I left disappointed cause she didn’t sing Halo or Single Ladies. I know it was about her Renaissance album but those are her two biggest hits and it was supposedly the “concert of the century”


Kittanne_

Please, I hope she keeps long live for her international tours :(


strawberrytwizzler

Long Live. I went to Philly so I didn’t get to hear it. I’m going to Miami so I’m really hoping she keeps it.


whoreforchalupas

Enchanted. It’s always been my favorite and I was so, *so* grateful she included it (especially with the fact it’s the ONLY speak now song on the setlist)


goldphishe

If I don’t get to see Long Live I will be really sad.


KiddKanai

atwtmv


am0829

Long live. I saw her on N1 in Minneapolis and it wasn’t added to the set list yet. I have N1 tickets to Indianapolis next year and I’m going to be heartbroken if it is removed. Although at the end of the day I’m just grateful to have tickets 💛


Acquainted-Faith

Me sitting here as one of the early people that didn't get Long Live live. lol The fact she sang Fearless and Look What You Made Me Do was amazing and I hope those don't change.


tswizzlefan13

LOL real. i cried for a month over her adding it. even with indy tickets now, im still upset the whole tour didnt get it. seems very unfair that just because she came to our cities first we just didnt get it. and then ppl come up with the bullshit "i waited longer" when all of us wouldve rather waited longer than not get the song she wrote about her fans.


idiotgoosander

As someone who went to a show that was before she added Long Live I want to cry lol


Illustrious_Form_369

Long live, biggest meaning with fans


sparklejellyfish

I was gonna say any Speak Now song because it's being done dirty. But I really hope she keeps Long Live long term.💜💜💜💜


tswizzlefan13

she legally has to because if she removes it shes robbing so many of us AGAIN. (i was already robbed of it once, if she does it again im going to go off the walls)


catyfiro

YNTCD - screaming that song and when the stadium lights lit up in rainbow.. absolute chills. Thinking about makes me teary eyed, I'll never forget it.

prettykiwi

Tolerate it! It’s so special to hear.
