AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift has surprised her fans, famously known as Swifties, with a special performance. When entertaining concertgoers in Sweden, the "All Too Well" hitmaker belted out "How Did It End?" for the first time.
On Sunday, May 19, the 34-year-old singer/songwriter took the stage at Friends Arena in Stockholm in the European country. During the concert, she delivered many of her songs, including those that are featured in her latest album "The Tortured Poets Department".
At one point, Taylor surprised the concertgoers by singing "How Did It End?", which is not included in her usual "TTDP" setlist. Offering fans an acoustic version of the track, she played a piano and rhymed in front of a standing microphone, "We hereby conduct this post mortem/ He was a hothouse flower to my outdoorsman."
The "Shake It Off" songstress continued, "Our maladies were such we could not cure them/ And so a touch that was my birthright became foreign." She added, "Come one, come all/ It's happening again/ The empathetic hunger descends/ We'll tell no one except all of our friends/ We must know/ How did it end?"
It was Taylor's third sold-out concert in Sweden. She also hit the stage in the country on Friday, May 17 and Saturday, May 18. For her Friday show, she treated Swifties to an acoustic version of "Peter". Meanwhile, she acoustically performed "Guilty as Sin" on the following day.
Aside from surprise performances of the tracks, Taylor appeared to have put smiles on Swfities' faces with her unexpected mashups. She performed "I Think He Knows/Gorgeous" on Friday, "Say Don't Go/Welcome to New York/Clean" on Saturday and "Message in a Bottle/How You Get the Girl/New Romantics" on Sunday.
During her Friday gig, Taylor also revealed that she has broken a new record with the Sweden concerts. Speaking to the audience, she said, "They also gave me this crazy news earlier today: The crazy news is ... you have made this the most-highly attended show ever in this stadium. You broke the all-time attendance record. You guys are absolutely wild."
