The pop superstar, 34, closed out the European leg of her Eras Tour on Tuesday with a packed show featuring special guests as she broke the record previously held by Michael Jackson for his Bad Tour in 1988. She also treated fans to the first live rendition of her song So Long, London from her latest chart-topping 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, which is thought to reference her ex-boyfriend, British actor Joe Alwyn. The last of her shows in London featured appearances from British group Florence + The Machine to perform their collaboration Florida!!!.
Her friend and long-term collaborator music producer Jack Antonoff joined her on stage for a rendition of Death By A Thousand Cuts from her 2019 album Lover. The billion-dollar tour takes fans through her back catalogue, including hits from albums 1989, Red, Midnights and her latest chart-topping 11th studio album – The Tortured Poets Department. Another surprise came when Swift debuted a new music video to I Can Do It With A Broken Heart from the new album, which features backstage footage of the singer during the tour.
The almost four-minute-long video features Swift’s background dancers and tour crew, alongside behind-the-scenes clips of how she travels under the stage between sets. The track So Long, London is the fifth song on her latest album – the slot reserved for the most meaningful track on each of her albums. Singer Florence Welch, 37, surprised Swift fans by arriving on stage to perform Flori.
