What Were The Surprise Songs In Nashville |
Night One: A Throwback to Teardrops and Teenage Dreams
Let's start with the OG surprise. Night one saw Taylor gracing the stage with a heart-wrenching rendition of "Teardrops on My Guitar". Yes, the song that soundtracked every high schooler's unrequited crush back in the day. This choice was a delightful wink to Nashville, the city that witnessed the early days of her songwriting journey. Imagine the collective gasp from the crowd – a beautiful blend of nostalgia and pure joy.
Night Two: Sparks Flew (Literally, with Fireworks)
Night two was all about setting the stage on fire (metaphorically, of course...fireworks did happen, though). This time, Taylor surprised the audience with the electrifying "Sparks Fly". This high-energy track had the whole stadium buzzing, a perfect example of how Taylor can seamlessly blend eras into a truly unforgettable experience.
Night Three: Folklore Feels and Surprise Duets?!
Buckle up, because night three gets interesting. The surprise song this time around was the hauntingly beautiful "Would've, Could've, Should've", featuring none other than Aaron Dessner himself (you know, the musical mastermind behind Folklore and Evermore). The crowd erupted as the iconic opening notes of the song filled the air. And let's not forget the "Mine" closer, a perfect ending to a night filled with unexpected delights.
