Taylor Swift played her favorite track for the eighth time at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on Friday.
“I’m trying to get to the point with these things, but I don’t know, I feel like it’s because you guys are the greatest audience to sing tonight,” the singer, wearing a bright blue dress, told the sold-out crowd.
She jumped into an acoustic guitar performance of “State of Grace” from “Red (Taylor’s Version)” before adding her most-played surprise song “You’re On Your Own Kid” from “Midnights.” Swift has performed the friendship bracelet anthem seven previous times in Tampa, Florida; Los Angeles; Mexico City; Tokyo, Singapore; Lisbon, Portugal; and Lyon, France.
She then went to the piano to play “Sweet Nothing” from the “Midnights” album along with “Hoax” from the “Folklore” album. In “Sweet Nothing,” Swift sings about a pebble she has from Wicklow, Ireland, which is likely why she chose this song.
“Hoax” was also the last song on “Folklore” that Swift didn’t perform on the tour. This is now Swift’s third all-song tour, after “Midnights” and “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version).” Here’s a list of all her performances.
The Eras Tour star is playing two more shows in the Irish capital.
