Taylor Swift’s Amazing Success: Clues for Those Who Still Don’t Get It (Explained by ‘swifties’)
Taylor Swift’s first experience with the Spanish public on Wednesday was impressive, extraordinary and full of memorable moments; and although it seemed impossible that she could repeat the avalanche of emotions that that first meeting generated, this Thursday, May 30, the artist has once again unleashed an unmatched euphoria with her second concert in Madrid.
The enthusiasm at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium has been equally intense, if not more so; but each show is unique and full of special and unique moments. The singer from Pennsylvania has everything planned in detail, including surprises for the ‘swifties’, who also prepare meticulously for the show. It’s not just about knowing every song by heart: their true fans spend months creating the perfect outfit for the big day, exchange friendship bracelets galore, know the tricks to buying merch without waiting in line, and much more.
The pre-concert ritual
All this is part of the pre-concert ritual, a few hours that serve as a warm-up and turn the surroundings of the stadium into a hive of emotion. Once inside, the 65,000 attendees enjoyed a performance by Paramore, the pop punk group that is opening act on their European tour.
A few minutes after 8:00 p.m., the star of the show finally made her appearance on stage after arriving, surrounded by tight security measures, from the Villamagna hotel where she was staying. As usual, her bodyguards made it impossible to get any photos of her outside the Santiago Bernabéu stage (to which she moved, as always, inside a black box that allows her to move around the space without being seen).
The surprise of Taylor Swift’s concert: ‘Not even drunk’
As with every stop, The Eras Tour provided attendees with unforgettable moments from start to finish, but there was one in particular that generated the most comments, tweets, and tiktoks.
Taylor likes to wink at the country she visits and on this occasion she has decided to pronounce several phrases in Spanish, in addition to wearing an exclusive look with the colors of our flag. As soon as she got on stage, she greeted her followers with a loud ‘Hello! Nice to meet you’ and at one point she was forced to stop the concert to ask for help for a fan who was in the audience, probably due to the high temperatures: ‘Help, please,’ she repeated several times in Spanish.
But the big moment came with ‘We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together’. The singer takes advantage of the chorus part of this song to say ‘Like ever’ in the language of the country she visits. In the case of her concert in Madrid, the American has given this honor to one of her dancers and at the moment of pronouncing this phrase she has passed him the microphone. On Wednesday she unleashed her madness by saying ‘No way’, a phrase that this Thursday she replaced with an even more striking expression: ‘Not even drunk!’
Those present applauded this new phrase in Spanish with laughter, a detail that has caused a sensation on social networks, becoming one of the most viral clips of this second and final stage of The Eras Tour in Spain, which has once again brought together numerous VIP personalities such as Edurne, David de Gea, Borja Thyssen, Blanca Cuesta or Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, close friends of the artist, who attended for the second consecutive day accompanied by their daughters.
