Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has become one of the most anticipated concert events, captivating fans across the globe. With the inclusion of new concert dates and the release of the show as a movie in theaters, the excitement has reached new heights. Fans eagerly purchased tickets for multiple showings, craving the premium sound and visual quality offered by the cinematic experience.
The setlist for the Eras Tour is a treasure trove of Swiftie energy. Swift has meticulously curated a lineup that represents each of her albums, with dedicated sections for each era. Let’s take a closer look at the breakdown of the songs Taylor Swift performed and any changes that occurred during the tour.
During the North American leg of the tour, the setlist had minimal variation. The Lover era featured songs like “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince,” “Cruel Summer,” “The Man,” “You Need To Calm Down,” and “Lover.” The Fearless era included songs like “Fearless (Taylor’s Version),” “You Belong With Me (Taylor’s Version),” and “Love Story (Taylor’s Version).”
Moving on to the Evermore era, the setlist encompassed songs like “’tis the damn season / no body, no crime” (with HAIM), “willow,” “marjorie,” “champagne problems,” and “tolerate it.” The Reputation era featured hits like “…Ready For It?,” “Delicate,” “Don’t Blame Me,” and “Look What You Made Me Do.”
The Speak Now era brought back classics like “Enchanted (Taylor’s Version)” and “Long Live (Taylor’s Version).” The Red era included songs like “22 (Taylor’s Version),” “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor’s Version),” “I Knew You Were Trouble (Taylor’s Version),” and “All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault).”
The Folklore era featured songs like “invisible string / the 1,” “betty,” “the last great american dynasty,” “august,” “illicit affairs,” “my tears ricochet,” and “cardigan.” The 1989 era brought back favorites such as “Style,” “Blank Space,” “Shake It Off,” “Wildest Dreams (Taylor’s Version),” “Bad Blood,” and more.
The movie version of the Eras Tour brings an added element of intrigue. With a runtime of 2 hours and 45 minutes, it is shorter than the live concert, making it a challenge to capture surprise songs effectively. However, the trailer hints at the inclusion of the acoustic set, where surprise songs often appear, confirming that they will be part of the movie.
The film was compiled from the Aug. 3-5 performances at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, and features six surprise songs: “I Can See You” and “Maroon” (performed on August 3), “Our Song” and “You Are In Love” (performed on August 4), and “Death by a Thousand Cuts” and “You’re On Your Own, Kid” (performed on August 5).
Different theaters or showings might feature different surprise songs, providing fans with the chance to experience something new. There is even speculation that Swift may have recorded new surprise songs specifically for the movie. While the other surprise songs remain a delightful mystery, “Our Song” from her self-titled album is highly likely to be included since it is the only representation from that era in the shows.
Fans around the world are eagerly counting down the days until October 13, 2023, when the Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour movie will be released in theaters. It promises to be an extraordinary musical spectacle that will allow Swifties to relive the concert’s magic and experience something new.
