Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour hit London over the weekend, and it’s no shock that her boyfriend of practically one yr, Chiefs tight finish Travis Kelce, was there. But what was sudden was Kelce becoming a member of Swift on stage.
The European tour kicked off in May and noticed the Eras setlist rearranged a bit. Taylor’s three-hour set opens with songs from her album Lover, then goes to Fearless, Red, Speak Now, Reputation, and he or she’s condensed and mixed the set from Evermore and Folklore, which is a change from the earlier leg of the tour. The iconic 1989 is up subsequent, after which comes Taylor’s new part from her newest, The Tortured Poets Department. That’s the place Kelce is available in.
The track Kelce joined Taylor on stage for is considered one of my favorites from TTPD. It’s referred to as ‘I Can Do It with a Broken Heart’ and it’s about how Taylor’s needed to maintain performing it doesn’t matter what private {and professional} heartbreak she’s experiencing. It’s a bop with extremely trustworthy lyrics:
I’m so depressed, I act prefer it’s my birthday
Every day
I’m so obsessive about him, however he avoids me
Like the plague
I cry rather a lot, however I’m so productive
It’s an artwork
You know you’re good when you may even do it
With a damaged coronary heart
The intro to this one about broke the web — even with out Kelce concerned — when Swift performed it during the Paris show that kicked off the European tour.
The coolest factor about that is simply how a lot enjoyable Kelce seems to be having being part of it.
And Kelce appears to be having the time of his life cheering on Taylor whether or not he’s on stage or not.
Especially when she modified the lyrics to her track ‘Karma’ to, “Karma is the man on the Chiefs coming straight house to me.”
The Tortured Poets Department is the primary Taylor Swift album that options songs written about Travis Kelce. My private favourite is known as ‘So High School,’ a candy track about how enjoyable and simple their relationship feels. There’s additionally hypothesis that the final verse of ‘But Daddy I Love Him,’ a track that’s in any other case assumed to be about Taylor’s ex, The 1975 entrance man Matty Healy (aka ‘The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived,’ one other track off of TTPD) is about Travis. Those lyrics:
And I’m dancin’ in my gown within the solar and
Even my daddy simply loves him
I’m his woman, and oh my God it is best to see your faces
Doesn’t it give some perspective
And no, you may’t come to the marriage
I do know he’s loopy, however he’s the one I need
As a matter of reality, Taylor goes straight from the tip of that track right into a snippet of ‘So High School’ within the present model of her Eras present, which helps gasoline that hypothesis. And she and her backup dancers even swag surf throughout it — which has bought to be a nod to Chiefs followers.
Taylor Swift has carried out with former flame John Mayer, nevertheless it was manner again in 2009. She introduced Taylor Lautner of Twilight fame — who she dated in 2009 — onstage at Arrowhead Stadium final July and launched him, however he didn’t carry out together with her and it was greater than a decade after they’d dated. As far as I can inform (from Google and polling each Swiftie I do know), this marks the primary time Taylor Swift has had a love curiosity come onto stage and carry out together with her in any manner.
Swift has been criticized endlessly for her relationships in methods males aren’t — one thing she addresses on her track ‘The Man’ off of Lover:
They’d say I performed the field earlier than I discovered somebody to decide to
And that may be OK
For me to do
Every conquest I had made would make me extra of a boss to you
But this relationship with Kelce appears very wholesome, glad and mutually supportive. Here’s hoping they maintain having this a lot enjoyable collectively.
