“Welcome to the acoustic session,” Swift told the crowd. “So this has been something I’ve been loving doing on the ‘Eras Tour’. I love to sort of challenge myself to play songs that I’ve never played live or I haven’t played on this tour.”

The singer went on to say that she wanted to perform some “throwback” tracks before dusting off ‘Superman’ from the deluxe edition of her third album, ‘Speak Now’. According to Setlist.FM, it marked the song’s first live outing since 2011.

Next up, Swift played a piano version of ‘The Outside’ from her 2006 self-titled debut album for the first time since 2008. She told the audience that she wrote the track when she was 12 years old, joking: “So this song is 175 years old.”
