It's been a long time coming - but the UK leg of Swift's spectacle of nostalgia, catharsis and joy was worth the wait
Taylor Swift opened the UK leg of her Eras tour at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh It's been a long time coming - but the UK leg of Swift's spectacle of nostalgia, catharsis and joy was worth the waitThe first time I heard Taylor Swift play “Fearless” was 16 years ago, at her first UK concert at King’s College London Student Union.
At the opening night of the UK leg of the Eras tour at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield stadium, I tried to sing along to “Fearless” but sobbed instead. Everything has changed, but there was the same Swift, same sparkly dress, black cowboy boots and glittery guitar, transporting me and every other fan there with her for the last 18 years to every shade of hope, wonder, innocence and pain of our adolescence and letting us embrace it all.
“But Daddy I Love Him”, a screed about the fans disapproving of her love life was cinematic and triumphant.
