Chicago: The Windy City of Surprise Songs
Okay, so, let’s talk about Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, shall we? Because if you’re not already obsessed, you’re about to be. And if you’re already obsessed, well, buckle up, buttercup, because we’re about to dive deep into the real reason we survived the Chicago heat: the surprise songs.
Night One: A Surprise as Sweet as Deep Dish Pizza
We kicked off the Chicago leg of the tour with a surprise as satisfying as a slice of deep dish pizza: “You All Over Me”, a Fearless (Taylor’s Version) vault track, featuring the incredible Maren Morris. It was like finding a hidden gem in a pizza box – unexpected, delicious, and left us craving more.
Night Two: The One That Made Us Question Our Life Choices
"I Don’t Wanna Live Forever" was the surprise for night two. A bold choice, Taylor. A very bold choice. While we all belted it out with gusto (because, let’s be real, who hasn’t?), it did make us question some major life decisions. Like, why are we still single? And why aren't we living in a penthouse with a view like that?
Night Three: The Moment We Knew We Were Truly Blessed
And then came the grand finale: “Hits Different”. A stripped-down, acoustic version of a Midnights gem? We were not worthy. It was like getting a personal serenade from the Queen of Pop herself. We’re still floating on cloud nine, tbh.
So, there you have it. Chicago, you were spoiled rotten. And we’re still not over it. The surprise songs were the cherry on top of an already incredible sundae. Now, if only we could figure out how to recreate that magic at home...
