Pop Star Taylor Swift surprise song set went from celebratory to somber in Stockholm on Sunday (May 19 2024). During the acoustic section of her third Eras show at Friends Arena, Swift was all smiles as she dedicated a medley to Sweden’s Max Martin and then full of melancholy for the live debut of “How Did It End?” from The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology.
At First, it was Swift’s pop medley on guitar in honor of the “genius pop songwriters and producers” she’s said she’s worked with.
“Max is actually here tonight,” she pointed out, revealing that she was going to play “what I am calling the Max Martin Medley.”
She started with
“Message in a Bottle,” the first song she ever wrote with Martin, which was penned with Martin and Shellback for her 2012 album Red but didn’t get released until 2021’s Red (Taylor’s Version). “Message in a Bottle” is a vault track on Swift’s rerecorded version of the collection.
“How You Get the Girl” and “New Romantics,”
both from the 1989 era, completed the upbeat medley that Swift looked elated to play at the third of a trio of shows in Stockholm this weekend.
After wrapping a three-day stint in Stockholm, she’ll be taking her Eras Tour to Lisbon, Portugal, for a set of concerts next weekend.
