Taylor Swift Marks 113th Eras Tour Show With Acoustic Performance

Taylor Swift’s lucky number turned out to be fortunate for her Eras Tour fans at her most recent concert.

On Tuesday, the 34-year-old singer took the stage for her first-ever concert in Switzerland, marking her 113th Eras Tour performance. During this milestone event, she celebrated by performing an acoustic mashup of her favorite songs.

In fan-captured footage from inside Letzigrund Stadium in Zurich, Swift introduced the special acoustic set, which included “Right Where You Left Me” from Evermore and “All You Had To Do Was Stay” from 1989. She shared that in honor of the 113th show, she decided to perform some of her favorite songs.

“This is actually our 113th show of the Eras Tour, and that’s my favorite number, which I never mention,” she said, adding, “I just thought since it was my favorite number, I’d do some of my favorite songs for the acoustic section.”

The love didn’t stop there. After her guitar performance, Swift transitioned to the piano. She confirmed fans’ suspicions by announcing she would sing “Last Kiss,” a song that serendipitously mentions July 9 in the lyrics.

“That July 9th / the beat of your heart / It jumps through your shirt / I can still feel your arms,” Swift sings in the track.

“Happy July 9th to those who celebrate,” the 14-time GRAMMY Award winner told the crowd, which included tennis pro Roger Federer, before playing a mashup of her Speak Now hit with “Sad Beautiful Tragic” from Red.

In recent weeks, Swift has been impressing fans during her surprise song sets at concerts. She has been combining some of her biggest hits and offering themed mashups, seemingly inspired by the date and current events.

At an Amsterdam concert in early July, the singer debuted a surprise song set evidently devoted to her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. The three-way mashup – dubbed the “Kelce set” by fans – included shortened versions of “Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)” from Taylor Swift, “So High School” from The Tortured Poets Department, and “Everything Has Changed” from Red.

Fans quickly pieced together that the combination of songs was dedicated to Kelce, as the lyrics to each song allude to their relationship. “I’ll be 87, you’ll be 89,” Swift sings in “Mary’s Song (Oh My My My),” interpreted as a reference to his Chiefs jersey number 87 and her birth year, 1989. In the second song, Swift croons, “You know how to ball, I know Aristotle.” The third song references a love that changes one’s perspective on life.

Adorably, the 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs player was spotted in the audience getting misty-eyed at the tribute.

Prior to this, Swift seamlessly blended “I Forgot That You Existed” and “This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things” in Cardiff, Wales, on Scooter Braun’s birthday in mid-June. That acoustic set has since been labeled the “Diss Track Mashup.”

Just one day earlier, she unveiled the “Murder Mashup,” performing “Carolina” from the Where the Crawdads Sing soundtrack before transitioning into “No Body No Crime” from her 2020 album, Evermore. This set followed her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn’s statement on their 2023 split in an interview with The Times of London.

It is no wonder they say she’s a mastermind.
