The final night of Taylor Swift’s five-night stint in London for the Eras Tour was full of memorable surprises.
Swift released a brand-new music video in London with behind-the-scenes footage of her massive Eras Tour. As confetti fell to the floor and house lights turned on in Wembley Stadium, the 3-minute video played on the big screens. The fans who didn’t leave early paused to watch. Many were speechless because it shows the “cleaning cart” Swift enters the tour in and how she can dive into the stage
“I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” — or what fans abbreviate as ICDIWABH — is the second single and second music video from Swift’s 11th-era album, ” The Tortured Poet department” moments before the surprise announcement, the singer and her dancers engaged in a big group hug before disappearing.
Earlier in the evening during her Eras Tour concert, the “Fortnight” artist shocked fans as she invited friend and collaborator Florence Welch to the stage for a performance of their song “Florida!!!” which appears on The Tortured Poets Department. Swift’s friend and producer Jack Anatonoff also joined her onstage for a mash-up later on in the evening.
The 14-time Grammy winner’s duet with Welch, 37, was the song’s Eras Tour debut, and the first time Swift had ever performed it live.
Meanwhile, Antonoff, 40, and Swift performed a mash-up of “Death By a Thousand Cuts” from the singer-songwriter’s album Lover, as well as “Getaway Car” from Reputation.
“I think a lot about why I’m lucky enough to get to do a show like the Eras Tour, and it’s because I’ve been fortunate enough to find friendships over the years that have been incredibly collaborative and creative [forces],” Swift told the audience before inviting Antonoff out. “I get to make music with one of my best friends in the world, and he’s here tonight.”
She also told the crowd that the songs they were performing were some of their “favorite ones that we’ve done together.”
Following their duet, Swift performed “So Long, London” for the first time live.
“You know, we have done a lot of shows on here on this tour, so it’s kind of rare to have a song that I’ve never performed live before,” the “Mirrorball” performer said before playing. “And yet here we are.”
After Tuesday’s concert, the “Cruel Summer” singer will take a short break before resuming the Eras Tour in Miami on Oct. 18.
