The first phase of Taylor Swift’sThe Eras Tour, is about to come to an end this week with the sixth and final consecutive show in Los Angeles, all tickets sold out. An epic finale that will be even more spectacular after the solo artist addressed her audience in her previous performance to deliver an emotional speech about the connection between her creative music-making process and the concertgoers.
«The reason we didn’t go on tour for five years wasn’t something normal or planned. We had a global pandemic, and there were much more important things to worry about. But I’ve been doing shows as a kind of survival mechanism my whole life, since I was around 12 years old. I go through this process where I feel things, I write a song about that thing, I show it to you, and I say, ‘Do you like it? Have you ever felt this way too?'» the performer began explaining to her fans.
«So, when you’re at a show, if you nod your head or make eye contact with me or sing the lyrics to a song during a show, that validates that emotion for me and makes me feel like I’m not alone in feeling it. It’s a kind of personal coping process in life that suddenly disappeared,» Taylor confessed about her absence from the stage for so long.
«I decided that, to maintain that connection, if I couldn’t perform live with you, I would create and release as many albums as humanly possible. And that’s what I continue to do and will keep doing,» the singer concluded amidst applause and cheers from an enthusiastic audience that has been fully enjoying the solo artist with 6 albums in just 3 years.

Evermore, Folklore, Midnights, Fearless (Taylor’s Version), Red (Taylor’s Version), and Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) have not been, by any means, an overdose of music from the American artist but rather a catharsis for the artist and the music industry itself, which has made her grow even more. The artist has regained the rights to many of her songs that had been taken from her. And her audience responded to the boycott of the previous versions by elevating each and every one of her new LPs. And there’s still a long way to go.
Because Delicate (Taylor’s version) is already on the way. The artist herself surprised us once again by previewing a snippet of a new re-recording as part of the soundtrack for the second season of «The Summer I Fell in Love» in its sixth episode. All of this, in addition, with rumors of the announcement of 1989 (Taylor’s Version) becoming more and more prominent.
Taylor has two more concerts to say goodbye to Los Angeles and head to the next stop on her worldwide tour, but before that, it seems we will have new albums on the way. New albums that will resonate once again on North American stages after the artist confirmed a new phase of her The Eras Tour there, which could become the biggest tour in history.
