New from Taylor Swift Midnight Bodi on the Eras tour could be a challenging big announcement — if history repeats itself
For the piano segment of Secret Songs on Saturday, Swift treated fans to a medley of “My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys” from Department for tortured poets along with “coney island” from forever.
Swift sang the first in Paris in May, while “coney island” was part of her set list in Atlanta last April and Australia in February.
On her first night back in London on August 15, Swift seemingly paid tribute to her boyfriend Travis Kelce when she performed a medley of “King of My Heart” and “The Alchemy” on piano for the secret songs segment of her performance. Fans have long believed that “The Alchemy” was about the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.
But she had another surprise in store. After telling fans she was “trying to relax for the rest of the night”, she brought out Ed Sheeran, who she introduced as her “other brother”.
“Every time I work red part of this show, I’m thinking about the memories we’ve made. And now he’s someone who plays at Wembley, like every week – it’s business as usual for him and he works so hard,” she told the audience.
