The Eras Tour is back with a bang! Taylor Swift has taken her world-famous tour across the pond to Europe this Thursday. And on the kick-off day of her tour revival, the songstress thrilled everyone to bits with the surprise they had all been looking forward to. The moment those 'The Tortured Poets Department '-style graphics hit the screens, the entire stadium exploded with deafening applause that could wake the dead. 

Taylor Swift carved out space for a total of seven tracks from her newest album, 'The Tortured Poets Department'. And right on the heels of that jaw-dropping surprise, the pop sensation once again came through for her fans, dropping two tracks from '1989 (Taylor's Version)' on her second night in Paris. She wowed the crowd with 'Out of the Woods' and 'Is It Over Now?' during the show.

Not only did she perform the tracks, but she also dropped a mind-blowing mashup despite flaunting a T-shirt on the first day that read "THIS IS NOT TAYLOR’S VERSION". It was the first time she fused two '1989 (Taylor’s Version)' gems: 'Is It Over Now?' and 'Out of the Woods'. Following the ecstatic reaction she got on mashups in earlier shows, she has kept it alive throughout her tour stops in Brazil, Japan, Australia, and Singapore. And the Paris performance made Swifties feel like they have hit a jackpot.
