SECRET SONGS Reaction: Chicago, IL (Night 1)

We are back with our last weekend of 3 shows!!!

SECRET SONGS Reaction: Chicago, IL (Night 1)

Comments

Emily, your cute outfit reminds me of Rachel’s outfit on Friends in S2 I think, the one where she loses Marcel. 🩷

Foxy_Tatty

oh my god, this was my night and my top 2 albums are literally folklore and 1989 and I wish you would and the lakes are my top 3 songs for each album. it really was a SUPERIOR niiiiiiighttttttt. I'm so glad I recorded my reaction to them lol, if you check Tiktok you can see my face DROP when I realized it was iwyw and me say the LAKES as soon as she brought up chicago. it was sooo soo sooo gooooood.

Anwaar

I thought if we didnt get 1989 over the summer that it would then be 2024 summer. Like 1989 to me is SUCH a summer album and I think the rerecord would absolutely thrive between May and September. However, Speak Now to me is my winter album. With Back to December, snow references and the fact it was originally released in October and now we're getting that in JULY so I don't know anymore. I'm so done clowning because none of my rationalisation has led me anywhere correct so far

Marie

GUYSSS i love you so much and im from south americaaa finally i will see taylor 11/11 IM SO EXCITED, i hope she sings afterglow or so it goes as suprise songs and im gonna say sorry because i just know that if you react to some lives in argentina you will see how loud we can beee sbbsbs

valentinx

I was there!!! I can't believe we got The Lakes, it's one of my favorites and one of the ones I really wanted to hear!! I Wish You Would is so good too, I thought it was so funny she was so shook that we knew it. OF COURSE WE DO!!

Maggie

I was at this show and Taylor actually said she was surprised we knew I Wish You Would! All I could think was are there any of your songs we don’t know??

Amy Sass

also i agree! she should reset

Jazmín Bicego

GUYS I'M FROM ARGENTINA AND I BOUGHT MY TICKET TODAY OMG IM SO EXCITED YOU HAVE NO IDEA THIS HAS BEEN MY DREAM FOR 14 YEARS IM UNWELL

Jazmín Bicego

In defense of Bonnie accidentally saying Dorothea instead of Dorothy in relation to Debut, Dorothea the song has always reminded me of Tim McGraw so maybe there is a thematic reference there as well. Dorothea is also about the past love telling her she can always come home. "The stars in your eyes Shined brighter in Tupelo" and "He said the way my blue eyes shined Put those Georgia stars to shame that night"

Chelsea Brown

the thing with rep or debut last is, does she want to focus on her "birth" so to say or her "rebirth"

Nin

hehehehe i'll take that!

Chats & Reacts

Ahahaha you’re probably right!! 😂 We can get so carried away with the clowning! But she could maybe start shooting some of it on her breaks. I could imagine her wanting autumn colour for it.

Katie K

YES THAT'S MY STAN SONG FROM THE HANNAH MONTANA MOVIE

aiyla

I was there too! I was so excited for I Wish You Would 🩵

Jenni

sorry babes! your hoax prediction is wrong because she’s saving it for me (i’m delusional)

pali

You both really manifested “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” by talking about non-album songs in this video

Jenna Aguirre

Ok now you guys just said that in this video, and I obviously agree! It just makes so much sense.

Jenna Aguirre

For the Wizard of Oz reference: Dorothy is trying to go back home the entire movie, and once Taylor has re-recorded Debut as her last re-record, she will be home. 😭 I feel this is a direct reference to My Tears Ricochet and the metaphor for her losing her albums; “I can go anywhere I want, anywhere I want, just not home”.

Jenna Aguirre

Renegade and Birch are two of my favorite Taylor Swift songs, and they aren’t even hers technically. 😹

Brittany DeLara

ALSO - The moon in Greek mythology is Selene, the "anti-sun" and represents new possibilities and potential, also looked at as a woman. Saturn is described as the god of time, abundance, wealth, and RENEWAL AND LIBERATION. I think she definetly thought of these things when picking the moon and Saturn.

Laurie A. V.

SO - Libra has one day that lands on the 8th, so 10/8 (her blue nail at the end of Karma, and Aires has one day that lands on the 2nd, (like the black nail) so 4/2? Also this is a stretch but 10/8 is National Octopus Day and I keep thinking about her octopus Fearless dresses. Also 4/2 is National Reconciliation Day and Reputation being released on that day? That would be kind of iconic.

Laurie A. V.

thanks bestie!!

Chats & Reacts

BESTIE SOOOOO EXCITING!

Chats & Reacts

no its actually insane what she is doing every night, she makes it looks so easy!

Chats & Reacts

so happy for you andrea!! and seeing sabrina too omggggg

Chats & Reacts

omg TEAAA!!!!!

Chats & Reacts

ugh Ethan that truly is a moment i need to experience

Chats & Reacts

surely she needs more than 2 months to shoot a movie? thats TOO much she needs to REST hahaha

Chats & Reacts

its very intriguing INDEED. my mindset is that speak now wont have any features but maybe thats so wrong!

Chats & Reacts

its quite shocking isnt it.... I wonder if she is going to reset the folklore songs for international dates

Chats & Reacts

thanks bestie, it's from reformation!!

Chats & Reacts

im so sorryyyyyyyyyy 💔

Chats & Reacts

i was shocked at that too, i really hope sooooo!

Chats & Reacts

dont be scared bestie have faith we GOT THIS!! and thank you 🥰

Chats & Reacts

And the smoke ring clock in Lavender Haze mv?!

Jenna Bolmgren

Omg I would become UNBORN if she played The Very First Night I'm such a slut for that song! It's really slept on for the sheer pop perfection that it is!

Jason

The lakes was my ivy🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

Chloe

this was my show and I can't believe I was there!!!!! I wish you would was actually on my top top tier of secret songs so I died when she played it!!!

Meghan Raap

The first thing I thought of when I saw your outfits today: Taylor and Gigi out on the town in NYC! I mean, serously ladies, we have no idea what season it is in Australia based on what you're wearing! Very concerning ;)

Esme (MadWoman@TheLakes)

I was actually shocked that she played The Lakes for a couple of reasons. One, there are other locations that have more lake references geographically, like Detroit and Minnesota, but also because I ranked it with songs like False God that I thought were just a little too Joe-coded for her to feel comfortable playing, and yet she did. For both of these reasons, I think she chose to play The Lakes now, in spite of the painfully romantic references to her and Joe and their trips to the Lakes District, in light of current events within the fan base. There is the issue of the public backlash around Matty (cynical clones) and the crazed fans waiting outside the studio and chasing her car home (hunters with cell phones). In the current climate, I think the line "I don't belong, and my beloved neither do you" could apply to her relationship with Matty and how she is likely sick of them both being judged and attacked over a relationship we know nothing about. A lot of people have been saying that, if fans aren't careful, if they keep scaring, chasing, and stalking her, she might just disappear again after tour. The choice of this song could be a similar warning from her to the cynical clones and hunters with cellphones.

Esme (MadWoman@TheLakes)

The Wizard of Oz was also re-released for its 50th anniversary...in Aug. of 1989.

Esme (MadWoman@TheLakes)

I CANT BELIEVE I WAS THERE TO EXPERIENCE THIS!!! i lost my absolute mind at the lakes 😭😭

ruchi bhatt

I wish you would was a great loss at least for me🥺Looking forward to that Bon and Em candid pyjama moment😂🫶🏼

alex

no im actually became scared that you guys may miss ivy, im praying that she will do it at your show, you truly deserve it.

Aisha 🖤

Thank you 💕 You should join the discord server if you haven’t already! We have a clowning channel

Kenna Galloway

THIS IS SO GOOD!

Kenna Galloway

This is so INTERESTING. I was just thinking how her last stop on the US tour has 5 shows and the last two are on Aug 8 and 9. 1989.

Lena

But also I’ll fly myself to Brazil or Europe if she doesn’t announce Canada soon.

Alice

I'm from the Lake District and very sad we didn't get The Lakes in the UK 🥲 Hoping she might repeat it!

Martha

Maybe that’s what the Sept-Oct break is, perhaps she’s still ironing out the details for Canada. Since Mexico is in North America technically she’s not starting the South America leg until November. We have hope!

Alice

I hope it ends on Debut! It’ll be so meaningful, coming full circle, the end of eras era.

Alice

I don’t know if I can handle rep released during my season😅🖤♈️

Alice

Can’t wait for vacation Bonny and Emily 6am pajamas reaction raw footage 😆💜

Alice

I forgot my volume was so loud when Bonny went ouuuuuuh 😂 !! always lovely to watch you two react, comment, clown and smile ☺️

CamilleC

Oh my god this is a goddamn manifesto and I believe it

Zosia Dabrowski

Bonny you look sooo cute in this video! (Em too ofc)

Natalia

This astrological theory matches up perfectly with the theory that her nail colors at the end of the video are next to the numbers on the clock that correspond to months they’ll be announced 1989 TV announced in August (VIII) and released during Sep/Oct (Libra) Reputation TV announced in February (II) and released during March/April (Aries)

Joseph Lorraine

offensive that she didn’t play the lakes in minnesota… the land of 10,000 lakes!!!

Erin McElroy

Can someone please explain the wedding cake Easter eggs in I bet you think about me...why red and 1989 references on the tiers and why 13 and 26 at the top...I feel like we never made sense of that

Cristina

Goodness! You deserve a degree in reading the signs!

Ally ❤️

What about the order in the man music video? It got the first 3 in order and would put the remaining ones as rep, debut and end on 1989. Also we were always wondering why there is karma twice on the wall....did this bitch plan for karma the song and a fucking remix in lover era?!

Cristina

😱😱😱😱😱

Ally ❤️

Best Saturday pursuit is catching up with these besties!!! 🥰

Ally ❤️

i know what you mean. i'm holding out hope that she'll come here after south america, australia, europe, and be here for the spring/summer 2024 for some nice outdoor shows. it's wishful thinking but i'm holding on to it for now

Jaimie C

Stop with that top Bonny! So adorable.

Rhiannon W.

I’ve changed my thoughts on the line “not without my muse” to a reminder of how ALL of these men, whether Jake, John, Joe(s) are simply her muses for writing. Normally a muse would be a beautiful woman like her, but in naming men as her muse she’s positioning herself as the writer, the creator, the pen, the power!

Mal

Besties! Here’s my Wizard of Oz + August theory: Wizard of Oz was FAMOUS for its use of technicolor. The movie went from black and white while Dorothy was in Kansas and only when she entered Oz was the movie in color. I believe, similar to the midnight coffee being a “This Love” lyric visual, the Wizard of Oz inclusion is a 1989 reference: “The rest of the world was black and white, but we were in screaming color” - Out of the Woods. So I think in part, Wizard of Oz is a 1989 reference. Additionally, the nails at the end of the Karma MV on coffee clock have the 1989 nail on 8. Then there is the august hourglass (it is exactly the same as the folklore merch). August of course is the 8th month, but the song august is also the 8th song on the 8th album. Similar to Taylor opening Eras with Miss Americana, 7th song on 7th album, which was an Easter Egg for SNTV release on 7/7, I believe these Easter Eggs are pointing to 8/8. Plus: Wizard of Oz initially came out August 25, 1939. August 25th this year is a Friday. 8/5 is one of the final shows, a Saturday (date adds to 13) and 8/8 is also part of this final leg. And now August 24, 25, and 26 have been announced as Mexico City Tour dates. I think Taylor will be announcing 1989 end of US leg and releasing something at the Mexico City shows. Oh and the final unhinged bit of the theory: 8/25 is also Blake Lively’s birthday. And at Taylor’s 2019 NYE party, which was themed Childhood Heroes: Blake dressed up as Dorothy

Kenna Galloway

You say Rep would be bigger than debut but I don’t know that I necessarily agree, I still meet a lot of people who aren’t Swifties but say they like old Taylor. Country has gotten huge in the recent years and I feel like a lot of non-Swifties will come back for debut. Plus symbolically it would feel the most like closing the loop. As an I’d Lie stan though I obviously want it as soon as possible so I can stop listening to that song on YouTube.

Kira Wise

I think she’ll repeat songs in other countries based on maybe what she thinks those places would like best

Lively_Ash

I'm sad because i don't think she is coming to Canada anymore after the north America leg is almost done.

Jen Manchulenko

The Lakes-Hunters with cell phones…she’s over the shit being said about her coming from FANS!!! It blows my mind the things supposed fans say about her…all the insane theories & thoughts on her personal life…it’s not the media, it’s not the haters, it’s her “fans” this go round…

Lively_Ash

Folklore is a summer album so she is playing it now because once fall hits it will be all about evermore

michelle stuart

I’m still clowning that the countdown clock before shows is starting on the next important dates. My show started at 2:23 (or 2:24 if I missed it it so fast) so maybe that’s the announcement of rep? If not the release?

Laura Donovan

Its a Latin America Tour 😬 Mexico is part of North America.

Estefania

yesss!!! i thought it could be linked to I know places from 1989!!! it’s the only song i can think of that says I 4 times exactly and stops or the fact that there are 4 words that start with an I capitalized on 1989 lol plus in her song You are in love it says “coffee at midnight”🤷🏼‍♀️

Shelby Lane

i actually believe her putting the wizard of oz and the storybook/fairytale reference could also be a nod to wonderland since it’s another fairytale/storybook that is also on 1989 and it’s also about trying to find their way back home technically right🤷🏼‍♀️ wizard of oz also came out in 1939 which is 50 years exactly to 1989 not sure if that means something but…

Shelby Lane

I think Taylor would release 1989, reputation, and Debut a little bit faster after Speak Now announcement release because she wants to own her music faster before she starts the next round of the tour.

Jen Manchulenko

I’m from Argentina and you don’t understand my excitement!!! I’ve been a Swiftie since 2006 since I’ve hear Teardrops on my Guitar, and ever since I’ve dreamt of her coming here to Buenos Aires, but I had started to lose hope. Can’t believe it’s happening and with this epic tour!!! (So nervous for tickets on Monday 😬😬😬)

Sol Gorlero

Ok with the Karma MV coffee having her blue nail positioned at the 8 and the black nail positioned at the 2, her starting her Eras setlist with the 7th song from her 7th album (7/7 Speak Now) and closing the show with the 11th song on her 10th album (11/10) I'm calling it now: 1989 TV announcement in August, release date on 11th of October (during Libra season), Rep TV announcement in February, release date between 21 March to 19 April (Aries season)

Zosia Dabrowski

I'm actually heartbroken the UK doesn't get the Lakes

Will McNally

Not gonna lie I’m gutted about The Lakes, I was fully expecting her to play that next weekend in Detroit 🫠

Brooke P

I lost my song tonight and I fully get the emotional loss this has. I can't believe The Lakes is gone, a personal attack and huge loss as she was supposed to play it for me in London :(

Will McNally

is the very first night not a fan favorite?? cause it’s THIS fan’s favorite lmaooo

Mike

Mexico is actually North America not south so I think that one is so close because it maybe ties off the North American leg (sorry Canada I do not think she’s coming hahah) and then a two month break before South America leg

Olivia

bonny i LOVE your shirt omg where is it from???

aiyla

This is was my Clean and DBATC 💔

paulina

I was wondering if they’d mention that too!! I am very excited about what it could mean 🤩👀✨

Katie K

Right?! She’s actually doing the most. When does the woman sleep?!!

Katie K

can confirm, as a uk swiftie i really thought we’d get this as a surprise song for manchester (considering that’s probably the closest she’d play too the lake district). this one stings as a folklore stan who lives near the lakes 🥲

C

What do you guys think about the Hayley Williams/Speak Now comment?

Jessikah

Oh my gosh, we are all so enthralled by the Eras Tour that we forgot that this woman is going to shoot a feature length film!

Rana

I thought maybe the Wizard of Oz reference had to do with the month of August since it was released in August of 1939…

Becky

you should go to the lake district just so you can sit on a mountain overlooking a lake, listening to the lakes. amazing experience

Ethan D

The fact that we lost Mirrorball and This is me trying so early is a crime

maya zutra

Its one of the smartest most poetic songs she’s ever written! I had been really holding onto The Lakes for a UK show! I wanted it so much 🕯️

Katie K

I would be so down for Sweeter Than Fiction too!! 🩵

Katie K

I did think she might be saving September and October to shoot her movie?! 👀 She’ll have the autumn colour in America then 🍁 and let’s face it she never rests!!

Katie K

Could possibly the Dorothy-scene be a reference to Leo ♌ as she meets, a tinman, scarecrow and a lion 🦁? Debut = july- august? 😊🩷

julie mortvedt

Seven is for India probably

The Penguin

I always interpreted that she will reset the surprise songs for international tour

Dorka

Y’all talking about Mirrorball makes me feel extremely lucky to have been one of the people there when she played it. It’s very true, didn’t know what the acoustic part was. I was so close to not recording it. I didn’t know what was going on.

Lucero Castillo

my show 🥹🫶 the lakes started playing and i couldn’t stop crying. so good! Chicago is tricky to predict because she doesn’t have a lot of ties to us, but you know who does (unfortunately)… Kanye. i’m predicting This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things at some point this weekend.

Kristen

Thanks but the Eras tour opening clock or countdown clock has the roman numeral 4 showm correctly 🤔

Shona Marks

i’m from costa rica so central america but i will try to get tickets for mexico city and i’m SO EXCITED i’ve never cried so hard in my life and she’s also bringing Sabrina are you kidding me????😭🩷

Andrea Mendoza

That I know places theory is a strech 😂

Nele

I think she will reset the songs for internationals 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

November Flush (Sam)

It's so weird getting so many 1989 surprise songs since the acoustic set is immediately after the 1989... I really hope she resets the surprise songs for the international dates, specially because some songs have such a different impact in other countries. For example Long Live (a song I can't picture her not singing on the american leg) is also the first time I think she did a remix of one of her songs with a female artists and it was in Brazil with Paula Fernandes, so I don't imagine she not doing it in Brazil even if it's just her (which I prefer actually). I also think since it's been so long for some countries (I'm a Brazilian boy living in Argentina so it's been a long time coming) that we do deserve some fan favourites that's already been played. I'm fighting for tickets next week and I'll be freaking out if I do get one and what my surprise songs would be.

Rafael Pelegrine

There’s 2 theories about this: first one, older clocks sometimes displays IV as IIII since IV is considered blasphemous because it represents the goddess Jupiter. Second one, it could be a 1989 easter egg since she starts I know Places with I, I, I, I

RoyceT227

💜 💜 💜

Alba

Bonny you look so cute with the hair and the blouse 💘

Nele

Watching from a pool in Bali cos these reactions are the highlight of my weekend 😆😆

Jessie

the lakes is one of my favorites!! still so many american dates to go, really hope she repeats the songs on other countries.. it’s not like it’s gonna be the same audience, so only fair to repeat the big favorites, like: yoyok, maroon, getaway car, long live, our song, daylight, cornelia street…

Mia Gregorio

Omg that’s so amazing!! Hope you get some!

• Sammy 🐍🖤 •

Can we talk about how this woman is a full on athlete? My voice is already shaky when I am walking normally and singing along to something. How does she run around and dance for 3+ hours and still sing perfectly 😄

Nele

When I FIRST watched the music video I was getting hints of all the albums but of course the push for her releasing 1989 and Reputation but the hourglass looks awfully purple like the sand in it and that was something on sale on her website a while ago & just hints at lots of things but the Dorothy thing especially how she waves to the “reputation” side that they are opposite sister albums, like rep is dark and lover is light and they are neighbors because she waves and blows a kiss which gives lover energy but that’s just something i thought of in reference before looking into the video a whole lot so I still have no idea what that MEANS!! Love u gals!

Alana Ashley

SURELYYYYYY she has to reset for international! There would be NO way she could keep going like this…. Think of us aussies 😂😂

• Sammy 🐍🖤 •

Needed your positive energy tonight -- thank you!

Aloha Record Sargent

I love your hair Bonny!!

Sofia F

In the Karma video why is the coffe clock 4 roman numeral incorrect? Is this am Easter egg ? It has me baffled 🤔🤣

Shona Marks

I'm sooooo happy that I'm gonna buy my tickets for the first show after the GAP, here in Argentina, MONDAY OMG!!!! CAN'T WAIT and also can't wait to see you both reacting this one hahaha

Carol Bermond

I’ve been getting into astrology more recently, so absolutely loving this. Ah, you girls are a blessing to this world 💜🌙💫♥️

Laura

the lakes is just such a perfect song for poetry nerds and english majors (people like me) 😄 the way she imitated romantic poetry and its focus on (immersing oneself in) nature and deeply connecting with one's surroundings. i love all the little nods she included. william wordsworth literally died at his home in the lake district, and i LOVE the "tell me what are my words worth" line so much. just such clever wordplay. love her

mieke

Honestly, Debut is my least played album BUUUTTT I’d float to the heavens if I heard “I’d Lie” as a secret song

Candice Plendl

I can't wait to watch this and hopefully make the fact that I was THERE (and for The Lakes!!!) actually feel real. Everything tonight was SO offensive in the best ways. ALSO TAYLOR WISHED ME A HAPPY PRIDE (along with 64k+ other people), so no-one can tell me anything anymore 🥰

Ash W

Ummm bonnie come trough with the offensive look 😍🫨 also very sad about these two songs, they are both top top 3 from Folklore and 1989 🫡

raheel

I went to the second show and Tim McGraw is my stan song so imagine my devastation when that happened! Lol. She didn’t explain the acoustic set that night either so just all the sudden it was This is Me Trying & State of Grace (but i mean…i obviously can’t complain about that!)

Amanda Gray

unrelated but i love yall so much like yall make me look forward to every weekend so much and i just really appreciate you both for taking the time to record every single reaction and post it for us 🥹💞

dianna

you know i would die if someone got sweeter that fiction as a secret song. it‘s my ultimate stan song 😭🥰🫶🏻

mieke

I am from Australia but will be in Argentina when she is there! It feels like fate - so excited and hopefully can get tickets! 🤞🏻

Dayle A

SAME here, it was so incredible but feels like a dream.

Ash W

I wondered if the 2 month break was so the band and crew could spend some time at home with their families before they jet off all over the world. But another crazy portion of my brain wonders if she’s planning on changing up the whole show over that 2 month break. But I’m likely a clown 🤡

Helen Dunham

i’ve seen theories about how it’s following the man graffiti wall LIKE A CLOCK. which makes it fearless, red, speak now, reputation, debut, and ending on 1989. VERY INTERESTING. especially sus the way it follows it so far with the first 3 re-records.

Alex Fraser

The thumbnail 💀💀💀

Ben Houtz

That moment of reflection at the end about her muse, yikes.

Kitkat13

I want Taylor to do Crazier as a secret song!! I would start levitating 😭

Usama Khan

I am wayyyyyyyyy too blessed to have witnessed mirrorball in the flesh 🪩😢👼🏼

kienan

I saw a tiktok today where someone was talking about the clock at the beginning of the tour matching it to the clock in the coffee at the end of the Karma video. The pre-show timer starts at 2:24 and the clock face is in the same position as it is on the coffee. With the hands holding the coffee with 1989 on one side and reputation on the other. So she was clowning for a release in Feb of next year. She was clowning for TS11 or the "missing album". I don't know about that but the clock clues are very intriguing and certainly mean something.

Clash Fan

For the wizard of oz reference she wrote the song for the Hannah Montana movie “you’ll always find your way back home” 👀👀👀

Mitch

this was my show!! im sooo happy about the lakes! i wanted ivy SO BAD but now that i didn’t get it, it has to be you queens

Anika W

I have such a different perspective on the lakes now. I can’t believe I never thought of the fact that she says the lakes are where the poets went to die and I took that at face value. SHES A GENIUS

Ava Jeffs

Yes!! Been refreshing this page. So excited!

Teri M

Apparently touring in Brazil/South America is *extremely* fraught and complicated, I'm SO HAPPY her team was finally able to get it sorted so she can get to them, those fans deserve everythingggg <333

Brittany Diamond

The Lakes hurt too much 🥲

Samantha silva

just started watching & bonny i am loving your hair!!

sammi snyder

omg I literally went to see if the video was up and the notification popped up, love from Brazil 🇧🇷 (by the way taylor made me cry a lot today with the announcement)

Giovanna Sicchio

love your hair bonny

Alex Fraser

i was there it's still SO surreal

Evan

actually so upset by these SUPERIOR songs today😩

Parker McFarlin

I wish you would has always been underrated and I cannot believe she performed the lakes?? our first folkloremore bonus track 🤯🤯

Ava Jeffs
