Swift kicked off the tour in Glendale, Ariz. in March with “Mirrorball” from “Folklore” and “Tim McGraw” from her 2006 self-titled debut album. Now, Swift has taken the Eras Tour worldwide, starting in Japan on Feb. 7 and continuing to Australia, Singapore and Europe in the coming months.

Every surprise song performed on Taylor Swift's Eras Tour so far

Taylor Swift announces The Eras Tour concert film with trailer

What surprise songs did Taylor Swift perform on The Eras Tour? Here's the full list. (Updated live during every show)

Listen to this article

Taylor Swift 's The Eras Tour is in full swing, and just as fans had hoped, Taylor has confirmed that she will be performing surprise songs on every single night of the tour.

If you've been a fan of Taylor for a while, you'll know that she always includes a surprise song or two in her tour set lists. The tradition goes all the way back to The Red Tour, and technically even further back to the Speak Now World Tour if you include the surprise covers she performed during that era.

With the tour now officially underway, the surprise songs are back, back, back again. There are 45 songs in the setlist already, which means she's got over 200 songs (!!) to choose from for the surprise slots.

Initially, Taylor told fans that she will only play each surprise song once, unless she messes it up. But she has now confirmed that she has ended that rule, and she will play whatever she wants, however many times she wants!

So, what surprise songs has Taylor Swift already performed on The Eras Tour and what can fans expect for the rest of the dates? Here's the full list. (We'll update this article live, during each show.)

Taylor will be playing two surprise acoustic songs per show. After 66 dates in 2023, Taylor ended up playing an extra 124 songs, not including repeats or songs that weren't her own.

At the end of her 2023 Eras Tour shows, Taylor confirmed that the full list of surprise songs will be completely reset. In February 2024, she began adding mashups to the acoustic section.

In 2023, Taylor played an additional 124 songs from her own discography as surprise songs. That includes 19 from Red (Taylor's Version), 17 from Speak Now (Taylor's Version), 16 from 1989 (Taylor's Version), 15 from Fearless (Taylor's Version), 11 from Midnights, 11 from Taylor Swift, 10 from Reputation, 10 from Lover, 8 from evermore and 6 from folklore.

Plus one soundtrack song ('I Don't Wanna Live Forever) and one extra song that's not her own ('I miss you, I'm sorry' with Gracie Abrams).

The Eras Tour concert film was recorded on August 3rd, 4th and 5th and all six surprise songs she performed at those shows will be included in The Eras Tour (Taylor's Version) on Disney+ .

What surprise songs has Taylor Swift not played yet?

With Taylor performing two surprise songs a night, it's pretty much a given that she will perform the majority of them before she finishes the entire tour. Taylor has now confirmed that she has reset the list for the 2024 dates, which means international fans heading to the Eras Tour will likely hear some repeats, as well as those she has not yet performed.

There's still plenty of tracks that Taylor has the option to perform. Here's all the songs that she has not yet performed as surprise songs:

• Taylor Swift : 'Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)', 'A Perfectly Good Heart'
• Fearless (Taylor's Version): ' The Way I Loved You', 'Change', 'Superstar', 'We Were Happy', 'That’s When', 'Don’t You', 'Bye Bye Baby'
• Speak Now (Taylor's Version): [All songs from Speak Now have been played.]
• Red (Taylor's Version) : 'Girl At Home', 'Ronan', 'Forever Winter', 'Run'
• 1989 (Taylor's Version) : 'Sweeter Than Fiction'
• Reputation : 'I Did Something Bad'
• Lover : 'London Boy', 'Soon You’ll Get Better', 'It’s Nice To Have A Friend'
• Folklore : 'Hoax'
• Evermore : 'Happiness', 'Closure'
• Midnights : 'Paris', 'Glitch'

Taylor's brand new album The Tortured Poets Department will be released on April 19th so fans will find out if she plans on singing those tracks as surprise songs after that date.

Alongside those listed album tracks, there's also several standalone and soundtrack songs that Taylor could add into the mix: 'Crazier', 'Only The Young', 'Carolina', 'I Heart?', 'Beautiful Eyes', 'Beautiful Ghosts'... And of course, 'Macavity' and 'Christmas Tree Farm'.

There's also the small possibility that she could potentially perform the songs she's featured on, maybe even with special guests: 'The Joker and the Queen', 'Two Is Better Than One', 'Renegade', 'Both of Us', 'Gasoline', 'Birch', 'Highway Don’t Care' and 'The Alcott'.

What surprise songs will Taylor Swift perform again?

At the start of the The Eras Tour, Taylor revealed that she had two rules when it comes to playing surprise songs more than once. Rule 1: If she messed up, she's allowed to play it again. Rule 2: Midnights songs are exempt and she can play them "however many times I want..."

However, in February 2024, she confirmed that that rule is no longer in place. She will play whatever songs she wants, however many times she wants.

So, if you're going to a London show in August, or one of the final shows in Vancouver and you're hoping to hear 'You're On Your Own, Kid'? It's now a strong possibility.

Here's a list of all the songs Taylor has performed multiple times on the Eras Tour so far:

• 'You're On Your Own, Kid' (Played 4 times)
• 'Maroon' (Played 3 times)
• 'this is me trying'
• 'Our Song'
• 'Snow On The Beach'
• 'Death By A Thousand Cuts'
• 'Clean'
• 'The Other Side of the Door'
• 'Teardrops On My Guitar'
• 'Out of the Woods'
• 'Come Back...Be Here'
• 'Red'
• 'Getaway Car'
• 'Holy Ground'
• 'Daylight'

Taylor performed 'Nothing New' with Phoebe Bridgers on the nights Phoebe appears as a support act, but the song was not one of the two surprise songs. Taylor could now perform the song again later down the line as a surprise song.

Taylor also performed 'No Body, No Crime' with HAIM on the nights they supported the show. It's possible that Taylor will now perform that one again, solo, later down the line.

The Tortured Poets Department will be released on April 19th, and features 17 brand new songs. We won't know for sure if Taylor will change her setlist to accommodate the new songs, but it's possible that she will perform them as surprise songs.

Taylor Swift Proves Third Time’s the Charm With ‘Last Kiss’ Performance

• By Althea Legaspi

Althea Legaspi

Taylor Swift performed “Last Kiss” as one of her surprise acoustic songs last night, July 8, during her second of two consecutive nights of her Eras tour at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. It was a fitting choice as she just released Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) on Friday and the breakup song hails from the original LP culled in 2010.

Given it has been a long while since Swift dusted off that track for a live rendition, it’s understandable that she forgot the lyrics, having to start the song a couple of times. “Oh my God,” she exclaimed as she realized she had skipped over a few lines on the first try. “We have this rule on this tour where if I mess up a song then I have to play it again some other time on the tour, just so I can avenge myself.”

“I swear I will not mess this up again!,” she laughed, along with the audience. “Oh my God, this one, I love this one, why am I doing this to this song?” Thankfully, the third time was the charm, and she delivered it flawlessly on the third try as fan footage showcased. She also debuted “Dorothea” live for the first time on Saturday.

Her Kansas City run included other surprises, which didn’t involve any memory lapse. On Friday, she premiered the video for Speak Now “From the Vault” song “ I Can See You .” Directed and written by Swift, the visual stars Taylor Lautner, Joey King, and Presley Cash, all of whom joined her on stage Friday to debut the video.

1 Comment on “The Eras Tour: Kansas City, Missouri (Night 2)”

I just returned from the Kansas City nights of Taylor Swift’s Kansas City tour. I have been composing and producing music for television for decades. I’ve worked with, watched, and recorded with so many of the greatest musicians in Hollywood for decades.

NEVER have I witnessed multi-level talent or the sheer force of nature that is Taylor Swift. My 26-year old daughter Abby, a law student at Creighton, stood next to me on the 8th row of floor section H for three hours and thirty minutes. She sat online for an entire day to capture three $100 advance tickets, all she could afford. She sold them for an unprecedented amount of money and could have paid off law school bills. Instead she leveraged them to ATTEND. She has been a fan of Taylor’s since she was 13.

Cities experiencing the demand, and better put…the unbridled passion for Taylor and her music, are seriously being overwhelmed. You would expect a stadium that has been home to Super Bowl Champions like the Kansas City Chiefs would be prepared. They weren’t. Never had so many carloads descended upon one stadium.

Not since the arrival of the Beatles in America have I seen a phenomenon like The Eras Tour. Yet even the Beatles can’t compare…in scale. While John Lennon and Paul McCartney will go down in history as the best pop composers of all time, Taylor will hold the title for the most authentic. The most relatable and soul-piercing.

Taylor Swift speaks to a generation of ageless fans, mostly under-served women, in a most personal way. Using some of most vast, impersonal, global technologies of all time: digital platforms and massive arenas.

Yet her arrows shoot right through the heart.

Her experiences are THEIR experiences, and nothing gets in the way.

As a producer, a composer, and a singer, I held a light for Carole King. James Taylor. Streisand. Billy Joel. Elton John. Dozens of other greats. They set the standard for making memories for an entire generation.

But The Eras Tour is simply different.

Those paying the unprecedented thousands for a ticket to see Taylor in 2023?

Leave the stadium feeling they didn’t just get their money’s worth? They feel they GOT A DEAL.

Nearly a hundred thousand fans in Kansas City? Knew every single lyric and belted them out loud.

They stood for over three hours watching Taylor bust through 50 distinct production numbers, impossible for any other performer of our time, or any time, to deliver.

She doesn’t just perform? She gives. She makes connections.

Taylor receives gratefully her adoration and sends it right back.

In a time when music has been so mishandled as a business, and when music is too often consumed in only brief, one dollar bites, Taylor Swift fans consume hours of her dense lyrics and messages, contemporary musical ideas, and electric, wholesome stage moves, and vaults of merchandise……

and leaves them wanting MORE.

Taylor Swift ‘s Eras Tour set list features a surprise song (or two), so far performed during a mini acoustic set, on each date of the the superstar’s trek, which kicked off in March 2023.

Guitar in hand and making her way to the end of the stage’s catwalk at March 17’s Eras kickoff in Glendale, Ariz., Swift revealed her intentions for the acoustic portion of her long-awaited live show. She’ll perform a surprise song that will not be played again on this tour — probably.

“The plan, the goal, would be to play different songs every single night and never repeat one. Right? So that when you heard one on this tour, you would know it’s the only time that I was going to play it in the acoustic set, unless — caveat — unless I mess it up so badly,” she said with a small laugh, “that I have to do it over again in some other city. Send your best wishes towards me that I don’t do that.”

Here Are All the Celebrities Who Have Attended Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour

The Eras Tour is her first real tour in five years, and the first time the prolific songwriter is getting to perform selections from Lover , Folklore , Evermore and Midnights to sold-out stadium crowds.

Eras Tour night one introduced a career-spanning, whopping 44-song setlist with a runtime of more than three hours, with Swift playing anywhere from one to eight tracks from all 10 of her full-length studio albums. The show’s nightly surprise is sure to keep her fans on their tallest tiptoes, waiting to hear what gem will be unveiled at their concert.

Below, check out the list of all the surprise songs she’s brought to The Eras Tour, courtesy of social media livestreams and post-concert clips uploaded by Swifties in attendance. Bookmark this page, as the list will updated regularly as the tour goes on.

"Mirrorball"

Performed at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona (March 17, 2023)

“I was thinking about the first one I would play for you,” Swift said at the very first Eras Tour concert, to a crowd of fans who were still gloriously spoiler-free about what was in store for the rest of the show. “I was thinking about what song to play first, and I was thinking about how one of the songs that I wrote with you in mind during the pandemic was one of the first songs I wrote for Folklore , and it was me writing about how badly I craved the connection that I feel from the care that you have directed in my way. I’m trying to tell you I love you, and I’m babbling,” she noted. Swift tried again: “I was trying to think of sort of an eloquent way to say that I love you and I need your attention all the time, and I came up with ‘I’m a mirrorball.'” After the wordy intro, Swift begins singing “Mirrorball” at the 2:17 timestamp in the video above.

"Tim McGraw"

“I was thinking about tonight and how special this is,” Swift explained on the opening night of The Eras Tour, and then added, “So I thought it might be kind of fun to play the very first song I ever put out.” The crowd gladly sang along to her pretty piano rendition of her debut single, nearly 17 years after it was first released. “Tim McGraw” was the only track from her first album to make the Eras setlist in Arizona.

"This Is Me Trying"

Performed at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona (March 18, 2023)

“I keep forgetting what key it’s in — one second. It’s lost all concept to me,” Swift joked before launching into the emotional Folklore track as the first of two surprise songs, at the second show of The Eras Tour.

"State of Grace"

Swift brought the Red album opener down to its roots as a piano ballad in Glendale. Her delicate vocals were echoed by a stadium of thousands joining in, making for a chilling moment of connection between a singer-songwriter and her fans.

Performed at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas (March 24, 2023)

“I do get ideas from places. I actually saw an interview that Beabadoobee did — who is our amazing, brilliant opening act tonight — and they were saying, ‘Oh, you’re going on The Eras Tour. What song might you want to hear?’ And she was like, ‘I grew up listening to songs on her first album.’ And she named a specific song. So I figured, you know what, for her first show with us, I’ll play the specific song that she said she would want to hear. So this is a song I wrote for my ninth-grade talent show. It’s called ‘Our Song.’”

"Snow on the Beach"

“Lana Del Rey put out a new album. It’s called Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd. Guys, it’s so good. You probably already know that, but it’s just extraordinary. I just think she’s the best that we have. I think we need to make it a priority as a group to stream, buy, support this album and this artist. She knows I’m obsessed with her, and she was kind enough to make a song with me on Midnights called ‘Snow on the Beach’ because she’s a generous king. She did that for me, and I’ll never forget how nice she’s been to me. It’s so cool when you have favorite artists and they turn out to be so nice to you. I wanted to just do some promo for her, and also, in honor of this brilliant album that she just put out, I wanted to play ‘Snow on the Beach.’”

"Cowboy Like Me" (with Marcus Mumford)

Performed at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas (March 25, 2023)

“Las Vegas, Nevada, you are so lucky, because we do have a special guest with us tonight,” Swift told the sold-out crowd when introducing Mumford & Sons frontman Marcus Mumford. “Would you sing ‘Cowboy Like Me’ with me?” The duo paired up for the 2020 Evermore duet.

“Sad Beautiful Tragic”

Performed at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas (March 31, 2023)

Swift worked in “Sad Beautiful Tragic” from Red to the setlist during her acoustic portion of the Arlington show. Strumming it on just an acoustic guitar, she introduced the song saying, “I love this one. When I love a song, I don’t care what anyone says.”

Performed at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. (April 13, 2023)

“I’ve been thinking a lot about one of my albums recently. One of my albums has been on my mind a lot … lots going on in my brain about it. So I thought I might play the title track of that album.”

"The Great War" (with Aaron Dessner)

Performed at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. (April 14, 2023)

“This song really took on a new meaning when you guys made enough jokes about how you trying to get tickets for this tour felt like surviving the great war,” Swift joked prior to the debut live performance of the Midnights (3am Edition)  track.

"Mad Woman"

Performed at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. (April 15, 2023)

“I have a really, really, really wonderful, incredible person in my life who I’ve been making music with,” Swift said, bringing Aaron Dessner out on her stage for a second time this tour and joining him at the piano bench. “…We wrote this song that I really love because it allowed me to get a lot off my chest, and now we’re gonna sing it for you — ’cause who doesn’t love a mad woman?”

MAD WOMAN. 💀💀💀 #TampaTSTheErasTour #TheErasTourTS @taylornation13 pic.twitter.com/MvkDCStWgA — ღMarci (It’s me. Hi.) (@loveMarci) April 16, 2023

Swift picked up the guitar for surprise song No. 2 of the night, complimenting the particularly loud Tampa crowd. She explained that she thought she’d play a song they might know and want to sing along with. “Just thought that would be nice, which is the opposite of mean,” she quipped.

"A Place in This World"

Performed at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas (April 22, 2023)

Going way back to her very early songwriting days, Swift introduced “A Place in This World” as a song she penned around the age of 13 — noting that she might relate to its lyrics even more 20 years later.

"Today Was a Fairytale"

“You make every day on this tour feel like a fairytale,” Swift told her fans before performing the song, originally featured on the soundtrack for the 2010 film Valentine’s Day , on piano. (At the second of three Houston shows, she admitted that The Eras Tour has basically become her “entire personality.”)

"Begin Again"

Performed at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas (April 23, 2023)

“We’ve come to the acoustic era,” Swift said as she set up for the two surprise songs of the evening at the end of the catwalk. Before launching into the Red track, she told the crowd, “I hope that if you know it, you sing along” — and they did.

"Cold as You"

“No shade to the other songs on the album,” Swift joked, expressing an utmost love for the emotional ballad from her debut album, which she played at the piano for the night three Houston audience. “Cold as You” immediately trended on Twitter while she sang the song live on tour for the first time in a decade.

Cold As You , tonight! #TSTheErasTour pic.twitter.com/HDAtoxfhkj — Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour (@TSTheErasTour) April 24, 2023

"The Other Side of the Door"

Performed at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia (April 28, 2023)

“This is one of my favorite moments in the show because it kind of keeps me on my toes,” Swift said to a wild crowd in Atlanta.

“When I was rerecording my album Fearless , I looked back and I was listening to this one … I remember when I wrote this one I was so obsessed with this sort of, like, rant I put at the end of the song,” she said, hinting at the deep cut that was to come. “And I never, I don’t think I really got to perform it live. If I ever I ever did, it was not enough times, so I’d really love to play the song. It’s called ‘The Other Side of the Door.'”

"Coney Island"

A pretty long speech came before the first-ever solo (and first-ever at all) live performance of the heart-wrenching Evermore highlight, originally a duet with with Matt Berninger.

“Any time I’m gonna talk about or even reference another artist, I feel inclined to tell you that if they’re not here, they’re not here,” she warned the crowd. “No one else is here. You are stuck with me. It’s only me. But I am gonna talk about another artist. I just feel like, you know, stadiums are huge and it’s important to really communicate, so that’s what I’m doing. I’m gonna talk about another artist who has an album that just came out that is so incredible. The National just had an album come out. This band has influenced me beyond my ability to verbalize how much they’ve influenced me — just lyrically, their ability to set a scene, their ability to tell a story. And obviously, Aaron Dessner is in The National and he has completely changed my life. I was lucky enough to be able to write a song with them for their new album, which is called the First Two Pages of Frankenstein . Check it out, stream it, buy it on vinyl. I love them so much. They’ve been so kind to me. So, I’m not gonna sing the song that we have on this new album — it’s called ‘The Alcott’ — check that out, though. But I am gonna sing ‘Coney Island.'”

“Do you really wanna know where I was April 29th?” Swift improvised before beginning the actual song. “Atlanta, Georgia.”

"Sparks Fly"

Performed at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee (May 5, 2023)

“I’ve been planning something for a while. You know how I love to plan things. You know how I love to surprise you… It’s my love language with you,” Swift teased during her first night in Nashville on The Eras Tour. “I plot, I scheme, I plan.”

“Rather than me speaking about it,” she said with a grin, “I thought I would just show you — If you would direct your attention to the back screen.” The screen announced that Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) will be released on July 7, and Swift then launched into the album track “Sparks Fly” on acoustic guitar.

"Teardrops on My Guitar"

Before playing the next surprise song at the piano, a selection from her debut, Swift reflected on her early years in Nashville, noting that she’d moved to the city while in eighth grade. “I’d been writing songs since I was 12, but when I think about Nashville I think about writing all the songs that would end up on my first album,” she told the crowd.

"Out of the Woods"

Performed at Nissan Stadium in Nashville (May 6, 2023)

“I think I saved a really good one for right now,” Swift, acoustic guitar in hand, teased the Nashville night two crowd. “You be the judge based on how loudly you scream. This one’s from 1989 .”

Sitting at the piano, Swift joked, “I feel like if I give you one piece of information you’d know exactly what song I was about to play,” before singing the Fearless classic “Fifteen” for her high school best friend Abigail, who was at the show.

"Would've, Could've, Should've"

Performed at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee (May 7, 2023)

Swift welcomed “kind, wonderful genius” Aaron Dessner to the stage on a stormy night in Nashville to join her on the surprise song from the 3AM version of Midnights . “He was warned about the rain, and he did accept the challenge anyway,” she said.

“Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve” was “one of our favorites when we made it,” Swift noted.

“I want to play a song that when I wrote it, I was writing about all these relationship things that hadn’t happened yet,” Swift said from her seat at the piano. She described how “it’s crazy” to go back and listen to songs that at the time were rooted in “fantasy” but at her age now are relatable, and then introduced the Speak Now track that was coming next: “This is called ‘Mine,'” Swift said.

"Gold Rush"

Performed at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (May 12, 2023)

“I wanted to start out with this one in Philly because there was sort of a — I don’t know how large the debate was, but I did see the debate,” Swift told the audience, referencing the “Eagles T-shirt hanging from the door” lyrics from “Gold Rush.”

“I saw some people wondering if it was the band the Eagles or the team the Eagles,” the singer added. “And I love the band the Eagles, but guys, like, come on, I’m from Philly.”

Performed at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (May 13, 2023)

“I have a request that I’m gonna do,” Swift teased the crowd before playing the first of two surprise songs on May 13.

“My friend Lena, it’s her birthday today,” she said, explaining that “she wanted to hear ‘Forever & Always.'”

"This Love"

Heading over to her piano, Swift said she loved this night and didn’t want it to end, and then — without an introduction — played the emotional 1989 song “This Love.”

"Hey Stephen"

Performed at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (May 14, 2023)

“I had a few really nice, fun people ask me to do this one,” Swift said, and then took the crowd back almost 15 years to a Fearless classic, “Hey Stephen.”

"The Best Day"

Tears had to have been aplenty throughout the stadium on Mother’s Day as Swift told the story of “The Best Day” and performed it on piano.

“I secretly recorded a song on Fearless ,” she told the crowd, recalling being 16 or 17 at the time and explaining that it was very tricky to get this project done without her mother knowing. “It was very sneaky and fun,” she said.

“I wrote this song just compiling these sort of core childhood memories I had of not just her as a mother but her as a friend,” Swift said. After playing the sweet song for her mom for the first time, while showing her the video of personal family footage set to the track that she edited together herself, she asked her mom, “Did you like the song?” “It’s such a beautiful song. Where did you find it? It sounds exactly like the things we went through” Mom replied, not even comprehending that her own daughter would write a song about the two of them. “I wrote it and recorded it secretly,” Taylor told her. “It is our memories. That’s about us.” Needless to say, there were plenty of tears that day, too.

“Question…?”

Performed at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. (May 20, 2023)

Before giving this Midnights track its live debut, Swift got candid with fans about how her life’s going behind the scenes.

“I kind of just feel like telling you … I’ve just never been this happy in my life, in all aspects of my life, ever,” she gushed. “And I just want to thank you for being a part of that. It’s not just the tour, I just sort of feel like my life finally feels like it makes sense. I thought I’d play this song which brings me a lot of happy memories.”

For the first time in Eras Tour history, Swift performed both surprise songs on guitar. That’s because her piano took on a life of its own after getting damaged by rain during the show the night prior, causing Swift to last-minute switch over to guitar for “Red.”

“Literally, it was like a water park under the stage,” she recalled to fans at the May 21 show. “This has clearly broken my keyboard. It was literally underwater — I don’t know how any of the instruments were working last night.”

“Getaway Car”

Performed at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. (May 26, 2023)

“I know you’ve wanted to hear this song,” Swift teased before her first surprise acoustic offering. And she wasn’t exaggerating. The pick was “Getaway Car,” a beloved fan fave, and for the song, frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff joined her on stage. “He’s been one of my best friends — he feels like a family member,” Swift said while welcoming “Jersey’s own” Antonoff. In addition to singing lead on a few lines, Antonoff aided Swift with some forceful acoustic strumming on the Reputation highlight.

Midnights is the most recent album to drop before Taylor’s Eras Tour, so it’s no surprise that it takes up a good portion of the setlist. Even so, the standard Eras Tour setlist doesn’t include one of the album’s absolute best songs — but the evening’s night’s crowd was in for a treat. “This is one of my favorites off Midnights , but I haven’t played it yet,” Swift said, before performing a gorgeous rendition of “Maroon” while seated at an upright piano festooned with a floral design.

“I’m gonna do one that’s one of my favorites, and hopefully you like it too,” Swift told the MetLife crowd of Red track “Holy Ground” Saturday night (May 27). “I feel like this is a pretty good choice for tonight. I’m pretty confident about it.”

"You All Over Me" (with Maren Morris)

Performed at Soldier Field in Chicago (June 3, 2023)

For this first-ever live performance of the “From the Vault” track off of Fearless (Taylor’s Version) , Swift decided to make it all the more special for her fans in Chicago. “When I was re-recording  Fearless , I thought it would be really cool to have one of my favorite artists sing on one of the song,” she told the screaming crowd. “We are so lucky Chicago … because not only did that artist say ‘yes,’ but Maren Morris is actually here tonight.” Morris joined Swift on stage for a beautiful rendition of the ballad, later writing on her Instagram that she “won’t ever be shutting up” about getting to perform the song live.

“I don’t know if you’ll know this. It’s kinda new,” Swift teased ahead of debuting one of the extra tracks from the Midnights era. Note: She did mess up the bridge at first, so maybe Swifties will have another shot at hearing this excellent breakup song live.

"The Moment I Knew"

With no introduction needed, Swift topped off the weekend’s surprise performances with one of her saddest songs to not make the final cut for an album. The track appeared on a deluxe edition of Red , and it’s on the Taylor’s Version rendition of the album. This night marked the first time she’s ever sang it live.

“I have a really, really incredible dad, like hasn’t missed as how type of dad,” Swift said of her own father. She also showed love for those who don’t have a good relationship with their parents and “how hard it can be for them.”

“I’ve always wanted to play this song in Pennsylvania,” she said of “Seven.”

"Dear John"

Performed at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis (June 24, 2023)

Swift prefaced her “Dear John” performance by encouraging fans to show “kindness and gentleness” on the internet ahead of her  Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)  album release on July 7.

“I’m 33 years old. I don’t care about anything that happened to me when I was 19,” she said when introducing the 2010 ballad, about a toxic relationship with an older man, widely assumed to be the singer’s ex-boyfriend  John Mayer .

“I’m not putting this album out so that you can go and should feel the need to defend me on the internet against someone you think I might have written a song about 14 billion years ago.”

“Dear John” appears on Swift’s third album,  Speak Now . The track peaked at No. 54 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 2010.

Performed at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio (June 30, 2023)

“I’m gonna play a song now that I wrote when I was 13,” Swift told the excited crowd. “I wrote this before I even thought I would ever have a first album. It’s kind of like the self-titled/debut era representation of the evening.”

She added that this moment was kind of the “middle school era” for her, and said, “This just takes me back. It makes me so grateful to be with you here tonight. Ummm… it’s called ‘I’m Only Me When I’m With You.'”

"Right Where You Left Me"

Performed at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. (July 28, 2023)

Swift teamed up with her frequent collaborator  Aaron Dessner  for the first live performance of “Right Where You Left Me” in Santa Clara, Calif., on July 28. Prior to the performance, Swift warned concert-goers that it was one of her more challenging songs to play live.

“Because it’s one of our favorites, there’s more pressure on it,” Swift  told  the crowd. “Also, this is one of the wordiest songs. I have been rehearsing this for weeks, OK? And I’ve never, ever gotten it 100% right. Not even one time. If this is the time that I get it right, you have no idea what kind of celebration I’m going to be exhibiting after that. And also, this goes for you. If you can get all the words right to this song, you get to pat yourself on the back. You win an imaginary prize. It’s yours. We love this song and I hope that I somewhat do it justice.”

As expected, the songstress goofed up the lyrics before laughing it off and starting again where they left off. “It was too good to be true!” she said. “I knew that I would f— that up! We really can’t let that be it, so now we’ve got to go back.”

"Castles Crumbling"

Swift’s second surprise song on July 28 at Levi’s Stadium was the first live performance of “Castles Crumbling,” from her recently released album,  Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) , which  debuted at No. 1  on the Billboard 200. The studio version of the track features  Paramore ‘s  Hayley Williams , but Swift delivered the track solo on piano.

Performed at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif. (Aug. 3, 2023)

“Every night is different,” she said before beginning, “and that forces me to really go back through all of my songs and play ones that it would never occur to me to play live or I’ve never played live before, and so tonight, we got one of the ones that I’ve never played live before.”

Performed at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif. (Aug. 7)

“This is a song that I haven’t played live acoustic, but I have played it live — and I miss playing it live,” Swift said to introduce “Dress” from 2017’s Reputation .

When Swift played the opening chords of “Exile” from 2020’s  Folklore  for the second surprise song, the crowd cheered wildly and started searching the stage for her duet partner  Bon Iver . After all, the only other time Swift has performed the song live is alongside Justin Vernon when she  popped up during a Bon Iver concert in London  last year. But the singer/songwriter ended up performing the duet solo instead on Monday night – which made for an incredible communal experience when the crowd filled in for Vernon on the bridge, creating a powerful call-and-response between Swift and her ever-prepared fans.

Taylor’s Latest Surprise Songs Have All Been Mashups

She’s basically doubling the number of surprise songs!

The Eras Tour is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Not only is Swift’s tour a hotbed for celebrities (hi, Travis Kelce ) and collecting friendship bracelets, but the setlist is packed with hits. At each show, the singer has shown love to her entire discography and some cult classics — or what she defines as “surprise songs.” No two Eras Tour shows are the same, as she changes up which two surprise tracks she’ll sing at each stop. Luckily, Swifties have shared tons of videos capturing these performances online.

During the tour’s opening night on Mar. 17, 2023 in Arizona, Swift told the crowd her setlist idea. “The plan, the goal, would be to play different songs every single night and never repeat one,” she said, adding these tracks would be performed during her acoustic set . With a lighthearted smile, she then gave a quick caveat. “Unless I mess it up so badly that I have to do it over again in another city.”

The whole year, Swift kept true to her promise and switched up the 36th and 37th songs with new surprise tracks. She occasionally repeated these performances due to minor hiccups, because ~Errors Tour.~ But these live renditions were iconic, nonetheless.

During her Nov. 26, 2023 show in São Paulo, Brazil, Swift made a major announcement about her surprise songs for 2024. “What I’ve decided is that in 2024, when we go back out on tour, I’m just going to open back up all the songs for surprise songs ,” Swift said. “I feel like for one year we’ve really gotten through a lot of songs.

The Kansas City, MO Eras Tour Surprise Songs

Naturally, Swift went all in on Speak Now songs to celebrate the release date of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) on July 7. After inviting Taylor Lautner and Joey King to the stage to premiere the “I Can See You” video, Swift surprised the audience with " Never Grow Up ."

She then performed her newly released vault track " When Emma Falls in Love " live for the first time. Although the song was new, fans had already put together theories it may be about Emma Stone .

Another repeat — Swift dusted off "Our Song " for a second time after initially performing it at one of the tour’s first shows in Las Vegas.

She followed that up with " You Are in Love ."

For her third night in L.A., Swift sang her fan-favorite Lover track " Death by a Thousand Cuts ."

And had the whole crowd in their feelings during " You're on Your Own, Kid ."

The greatness continued on her fourth night in L.A. There, she performed “Dress” from Reputation . However, instead of incorporating the track’s original synths, she stripped it down to an acoustic version.

She continued the mellow vibes with her Folklore gem, “ Exile .”

Swift continued her Reputation streak on her fifth L.A. stop. She performed “King Of My Heart ” to an emotional crowd, who belted the lyrics as passionately as Swift did.

Afterward, she took a trip down 1989 with “I Know Places.” Similar to “Dress” from the night before, she swapped the original tune’s synth-y production for a guitar solo.

For Swifties, this was certainly the night *not* to miss. During her final night in the City of Angels, Swift announced her re-recording of 1989 would release on Oct. 27. She also performed some surprises.

To celebrate 1989 (Taylor’s Version) , she sang “New Romantics” from the 9-year-old album.

She then turned her attention back to Reputation and performed “New Year’s Day .”

The Mexico City, MX Eras Tour Surprise Songs

For her first international stop on the Eras Tour, Swift performed an acoustic version of “ I Forgot That You Existed .”

She also sat at her piano to perform a rendition of “Sweet Nothing .”

She gave the Mexico City crowd a serious throwback when she sang “Tell Me Why .”

Her second surprise song was “ Snow on the Beach .”

Swift made sure to give the fans what they wanted on her third night in Mexico City. She introduced her performance of “Cornelia Street ” by noting it was a song she’d been hearing a lot of requests for throughout her tour.

She then sang "You're on Your Own, Kid ," making it the first surprise song to get three performances on the Eras Tour.

The “You’re on Your Own, Kid” record didn’t last long, though. On her final night in Mexico City, Swift performed “Maroon” for the third time .

She also sang her Lover ballad “ Afterglow .”

The Buenos Aries, ARG Eras Tour Surprise Songs

After more than two months away from the Eras stage, Swift returned with her Red (Taylor’s Version) vault track “ The Very First Night .”

She also performed her Midnights song “ Labyrinth .”

These two song choices were incredibly interesting, given it was Swift’s first performance since she began dating her new boyfriend, Travis Kelce . Fans were quick to point out how both songs were about the romantic beginnings of a new relationship , with “The Very First Night” in particular having the lyric, “I was riding in the car when we both fell.” Swift and Kelce memorably drove off together after their first public appearance at one of Kelce’s games.

November 11

For the first time in the Eras Tour, Swift performed a special mashup for one of her surprise songs. She combined her newly released vault track “ Is It Over Now?” with “Out of the Woods .”

It was her second surprise song that really raised eyebrows. Swift sang her Reputation track “End Game ,” which carried extra meaning since her boyfriend Travis Kelce was in attendance . The song had become a top pick for Swifties when making romantic edits of Swift and Kelce, given the sports references in its lyrics and “big reputation” chant .

November 12

To close out her Buenos Aries dates, Swift surprised the crowd with “ Better Than Revenge .”

She then sang “Slut! ,” a vault track off her newly released 1989 (Taylor’s Version) .

The Rio De Janeiro, BRA Eras Tour Surprise Songs

November 17.

On her first night in Rio de Janeiro, Swift sang “Stay Beautiful” for the crowd.

She also treated them to the live debut of “Suburban Legends .”

November 19

After having to cancel her Saturday concert due to extreme temperatures, Swift returned to the stage on Sunday and surprised the audience with “ Dancing With Our Hands Tied .”

Then, she went to the piano to sing “ Bigger Than the Whole Sky .”

November 20

For her final night in Rio de Janeiro, Swift performed an acoustic version of her single “Me! ”

But the real conversation starter was Swift’s second surprise song. She took to the piano to sing “So It Goes... ,” which fans were quick to point out was one of the two Reputation tracks she had not yet performed on the tour. To drive the point home even more, Swift winked during the performance .

Swifties took the “So It Goes...” choice as an indication that she is about to announce Reputation (Taylor’s Version) , a project she’s been subtly teasing for a while now . The theory is that whenever Swift finally performs her last Rep song, “I Did Something Bad,” she’ll use that to announce when her re-release of the album will drop.

The São Paulo, BRA Eras Tour Surprise Songs

November 24.

For her first night in São Paulo, Swift performed her 1989 (Taylor’s Version) vault track “Now That We Don’t Talk” live for the first time .

She then took to her piano to sing “Innocent .”

November 25

She also gifted her Brazilian fans with a live performance of “Safe & Sound ,” the song she wrote for The Hunger Games .

Swift then performed “Untouchable .”

November 26

The third night of São Paulo was bittersweet for Swifties, many of whom were theorizing that Swift may use her final 2023 concert to announce Reputation (Taylor’s Version) . But ultimately, that long-awaited “I Did Something Bad” surprise song didn’t come. Instead, Swift live-debuted her recently released vault track “Say Don’t Go .”

Her final surprise song of the year was “ It’s Time to Go .”

Swift also gave the crowd a major update about her future surprise songs for 2024. She told the crowd that she would be repeating surprise songs for the next leg of her tour, making a completely blank slate to choose any song she wanted.

The Tokyo, JPN Eras Tour Surprise Songs

At long last, Swift’s Eras Tour returned in 2024 with her Tokyo shows. Fittingly, her first surprise song was “ Dear Reader, ” a nod to her recently announced 11th studio album The Tortured Poets Department .

Swift also performed “Holy Ground” for the Tokyo crowd.

Swift included a truly deep cut in her Feb. 8 show. She performed her Hunger Games single “Eyes Open” live for the first time ever .

She kept the niche love going by singing the vault track “Electric Touch” live for the first time.

For Night 3 in Tokyo, Swift sang “Superman” for her guitar section.

And after she sat down at the piano, Swift threw it all the way back to one of the first songs she’d ever written: “ The Outside .”

February 10

She closed out her Tokyo performances with the Fearless track “Come In With the Rain .”

And finally, the last song she played before jetting off to watch her boyfriend play in the Super Bowl was “ You’re On Your Own, Kid .” Swifties speculated that she chose this song as an ode to Travis Kelce , considering they met when Kelce tried to give her a friendship bracelet (an Eras staple inspired by a line in that song).

The Melbourne, AUS Eras Tour Surprise Songs

February 16.

Swift kicked off her Melbourne surprise set with her hit single, “Red .”

The first song may have been super well-known, but Swift went obscure for her second pick. After telling the crowd she’s never performed this track live before , Swift launched into her Midnights bonus track “You’re Losing Me .”

February 17

For Melbourne night two, Swift sang a mashup of songs from three different eras — Fearless , Reputation , and Folklore . She surprised crowds by combining “Getaway Car,” “August,” and “The Other Side Of The Door” on guitar.

Switching over to piano, Swift sang, “ This Is Me Trying .” She previously performed the track as a surprise song during one of her Arizona shows, but played it on guitar at the time.

February 18

Keeping with the trend of performing mashups, Swift sang a combination of “Come Back... Be Here and “Daylight” on guitar. She then performed “ Teardrops on My Guitar ” on piano.

The Sydney, AUS Eras Tour Surprise Songs

February 23

For Swift’s first Eras Tour performance in Sydney, she played “ How You Get The Girl ” on guitar. Then, Sabrina Carpenter (who’s been opening for Swift on tour) came on stage to sing a mashup of “White Horse” and “Coney Island” with her.

February 24

Sydney truly won in the surprise songs department. On her second night, Swift whipped out her guitar to perform a mix of two older tracks : “Should’ve Said No” from her self-titled debut, and “You’re Not Sorry” on Fearless . Later that night, she retired behind the piano and sang a mashup of Reputation’ s “New Year’s Day” and “Peace” from Folklore .

February 25

The Sydney mashups continued. Swift first started with a 1989 (both original and Taylor’s Version ) blend of “Is It Over Now” and “I Wish You Would.” She then darkened the setlist, performing a mix of Speak Now’ s “Haunted” and “Exile” off Folklore .

February 26

For her final night in Sydney, Swift fully leaned into her mashup era with ease. Her first blend began with “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve” from Midnights and “Ivy” from Evermore , which felt on par with her green-hued dress. Later that night, she brought out her traditional piano and performed Fearless’ “Forever & Always” and Maroon from Midnights .

The Singapore Eras Tour Surprise Songs

Sydney wasn’t the only stop to be blessed with some surprise mashups. Swift opened her Singapore shows with a mashup of “Mine” and “Starlight .”

At the piano, she combined her songs “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” and “Dress .”

Swift had a lot of stories to tell on her second night in Singapore. She mashed up “Long Story Short” with “The Story of Us .”

She concluded with one of her most emotional mashups yet: “Clean” x “Evermore .”

For her guitar mashup, Swift combined “Foolish One” with “Tell Me Why .”

She got extra romantic for her second surprise mashup — marrying “This Love” with “Call It What You Want .”

Swift’s first mashup on March 7 took the whole crowd by surprise. After launching into fan-favorite “Death by a Thousand Cuts,” she combined the song with her lesser-known Sugarland feature “Babe .”

Next, Swift had a message for her younger self. She got super nostalgic for her adolescence, combining “Fifteen” with “You’re on Your Own, Kid .”

[9 February 24] Surprise Songs Taylor Swift Eras Tour

Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has been nothing short of a phenomenon.

The pop icon has sold out multiple nights at every stadium along her 50 city tour. Not only that, she’s selling out shows in a matter of minutes, and crashing ticket sale sites along the way.

The lucky fans who manage to snag tickets arrive adorned in costumes and friendship bracelets, ready to belt all 45 songs during the 3 hour and 15 minute set.

A fan favorite during The Eras Tour is the acoustic set, where Taylor Swift plays two surprise songs. The first song is played on guitar, and the second, piano.

Each night’s surprise songs can be from any album and are seemingly random.

The surprise element has a been a huge success, and is often the most anticipated part of the show.

By the end of the 146 (and counting) shows, Taylor has the potential to play every single song on her discography.

Below is every surprise song Taylor has played during The Eras Tour, plus a list of remaining songs.

This was written by a Swiftie, for fellow Swifties. Thank you for reading!

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour Surprise Songs: The List So Far

Fans will remember this tour all too well for years to come

John Shearer/Getty

Every day is a fairytale on the Eras Tour .

Taylor Swift has embarked on her first tour since 2018 , the singer has added to fans' excitement by performing two surprise acoustic songs from her 10 studio albums at some point during each three-hour show.

"The plan, the goal, would be to play different songs every single night and never repeat one," the singer and songwriter revealed to the audience at her first show of the tour.

Ticket-holders remained on the edge of their seats knowing no surprise song will be performed twice — unless Swift messes the song up during her performance — as she said while singing "Death by a Thousand Cuts" at an April 1 show — or if it's off Midnights . (So far, she's repeated "Red," "Holy Ground," "Clean," "Our Song," "Snow on the Beach," "Out of the Woods," Fifteen," "Sparks Fly," "Gold Rush" and "False God" twice while "Death by a Thousand Cuts" and "Maroon" have been played three times. "You're on Your Own, Kid" has been played four.)

In Melbourne, Australia in February 2024, Swift abolished her own no repeats rule — and has since begun playing medleys.

Travis Kelce dances to Taylor Swift’s ‘Shake It Off’ at ‘New Heights’ podcast live show with brother Jason

Travis Kelce busted a move to girlfriend Taylor Swift’s song “Shake It Off” at his and his brother Jason Kelce’s “New Heights Live: We Gotta Talk About It” show Thursday at Fifth Third Arena in Cincinnati.

During a round of the Lombaby Games — a competition he and Jason created for the event, the Kansas City Chiefs player was seen grooving as a marching band played the pop star’s hit track.

“That’s one of my favorites ,” he could be heard telling the crowd in a TikTok video posted from the show.

Swift, 34, was not seen at the event, which Page Six attended, but she was not expected to be one of the surprise guests — even though she is currently on hiatus from the international leg of her Eras Tour.

The “Bad Blood” singer reportedly has been focused on “rest and recuperation” during her much-needed time off, and also squeezed in some quality time with friends at a recent birthday party in Los Angeles.

However, the Kelce brothers, who returned to their home state of Ohio for the live podcast taping, did bring out Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and Travis’ former Chiefs teammate Orlando Brown Jr. as special guests.

Their parents, Ed Kelce and Donna Kelce, and Jason’s wife, Kylie Kelce, were also seen supporting the NFL stars at the show.

Fifth Third Arena is just outside of Nippert Stadium, where the event was originally supposed to be held prior to weather complications. The stadium holds a special place for Travis, 34, and Jason, 36, as its where the brothers played college football for the University of Cincinnati (UC).

Jason went to school there from 2006 to 2011 before being drafted to the Philadelphia Eagles his senior year, and Travis attended UC from 2008 to 2012 before being drafted to the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013.

The Lombaby Games got the audience excited with silly competitions that required contestants to do things like pin a mustache on an Andy Reid cutout and ride a bull while answering trivia.

Jason teased the event on “New Heights” in March, saying, “One of the beautiful things about doing this on a college campus, you want the college atmosphere, you want the students involved, the student athletes involved, so we’re going to have two teams of UC students.

“I’m not going to lie. I got this idea from ‘Revenge of the Nerds.’ Football team versus the nerds. Not saying the nonathletic guys are nerds unless you like to be called a nerd.”

The retired Eagles center said at the time that the teams would face off in fun but “ridiculous” games.

Ultimately, the nerds took the win on Thursday during the Lombaby Games.

After winning Podcast of the Year at 2024 iHeartPodcast Awards in March, Jason said in an acceptance speech, “To receive an award like this is beyond humbling, and we would be remiss if we didn’t immediately thank all the 92 percenters out there — aka Swifties — who voted for us to win this award.”

The pro athletes have mentioned or alluded to Swift in several of their podcast episodes.

Travis sang a line from the Grammy winner’s hit “Bad Blood” on the show in March, and he also gushed about his trip to Singapore , where he saw her perform on her Eras Tour, in another episode that same month.

The love is mutual, though, because Swift has proven she listens to the podcast and is part of the 92 percenters fandom.

In January, the “Lover” singer subtly “liked” an Instagram video of Travis and Jason chatting about the latter’s wild shirtless behavior  at the Chiefs’ game versus the Buffalo Bills, which Swift attended .

New episodes of the “New Heights” podcast drop every Wednesday.
