Taylor Swift is already in Europe. The Eras Tour, the tour with which the singer goes through her entire musical career in a show with more than 40 songs and about three and a half hours, kicked off its European leg last night at París. And it did so with notable changes in its set list.
This variation with respect to the concerts they have been giving until now has not been a surprise for their fans, the swifties: it was expected that, after the release last April 19 of their latest album – TheTortured Poets Department (TTPD)– some of these songs would be included in the concerts. The unknown, therefore, was which of the more than 30 new songs would be chosen and which would be left out to make room for them.
The Paris concert has served as a guide to clear up any doubts and, although there will still be surprise songs in each live performance, the bulk of the songs are expected to be the same. That is to say: we can already talk about the list of songs that Swift will perform at her double at the Bernabéu on May 29 and 30 in Madrid.
Taylor Swift’s concert repertoire, arranged by era
In total, the concert will consist – as in the past – of 46 songs, eight of which will belong to his latest work. In addition, the singer has decided, for this leg of the tour, to merge the albums folklore and evermore (both released during the pandemic) as if they were a single era. And introduce other changes such as in their outfits or set design.
But returning to the music, with these modifications the repertoire -ordered by eras- is as follows:

In addition to the above, there were two surprise songs each night. In Paris they were Paris y loml.
What songs have been left out?
In order to include the TTPDsongs they have abandoned the repertoire The Archer(from Lover), ’tis the damn season and tolerate it (from evermore) and the one and the last great american dynasty, from their folk album. But perhaps the one that has surprised their fans the most was the decision to leave out Long Live from Speak Now.
For those who missed out on a ticket to see her at the Bernabeu, there are other options to enjoy his live music.
