When Taylor Swift picked up her guitar in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, on Wednesday, the back screen started glitching.
“Before we get into acoustic things, I just wanted to say that this is such a thoughtful crowd,” she said in her sunrise orange dress. “You guys have done all sorts of things to make us feel so loved. Let me think of all the things.”
She listed that fans held up little paper hearts during her song “Lover,” showed signs during “You Belong With Me” that said “I belong with you” and created their own orbs for “Willow” by blowing up balloons and putting their phone flashlights behind the balloons.
“You guys are so thoughtful,” she said strumming her guitar.
Swift sang a mashup of “Superstar” from “Fearless (Taylor’s Version)” and “Invisible String” from “Folklore.” She hasn’t played “Superstar” yet on the Eras Tour and still has 16 never-before-heard-live songs from her 11 studio albums.

After guitar came the piano song selection.
As the singer sat down at her piano (which malfunctioned at her last show in Milan, Italy), she sang the phrase “flamingo pink” and fans screeched. Swift combined “Slut!” from “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” with “False God” from “Lover.”
Although fans livestreaming the concert hoped the initial glitch would lead to an announcement, none came.
Swift has seven total shows in Germany over the next two weeks with shows in Gelsenkirchen, Hamburg and Munich. She will wrap up the European leg of the Eras Tour in August performing five nights in London.
