Davi Binda

can anyone tell if emily is ok after okay after haunted x exile????

Jeremy Pitts

That exile fan duet must have been incredible to hear inside the stadium

Katie LaFave

I HOPE AFTER THIS PEOPLE HAVE FATHOMED HOW SUPERIOR IT'S NICE TO HAVE A FRIEND IS!!!!!

Katie LaFave

THAT GUITAR MASHUP WAS SUPERIOR!!!! IT'S NICE TO HAVE A FRIEND COUNTRY VERSION!!!! I AM UNWELL

Czechgrl

Clicked so fast! 🫶🏼🫶🏼 Couldn’t wait to see y’all’s reaction to that repeat mashup!!!!!

Katy Magner

Sound like Southern California with the weather lol

Katie LaFave

IT'S NICE TO HAVE A FRIEND STAN & DEFENDER FOR LIFE

Kayla Knutson

What a superior weekend in Edinburgh!! Thanks for keeping me company with all the chit chats and fathomings! 💕

Kirsten Marie

I was at SoFi in LA N4 when she did Dress and Exile, not mashed up. We sang the whole duet part with her for the whole song and I’ll never forget it!!!

nicole

I’m sorry but she played SO many Australian surprise songs in Edinburgh?! WCS, Daylight, The Bolter that she announced here, Getaway Car AND the Haunted x Exile mashup. I’m being so delulu that she’s Easter egging that she’s coming back. My clowning rn is that after the 100th show she’s going to drop dates to continue the tour into next year.

Kirsten Marie

Excuse me, she said “It’s nice to have Dorothea”!!!!! I’m unwell

Czechgrl

Wait… am I missing something? Should I start watching Outlander?!?!

MsParis729

Can't explain how much I love you girls for getting these reactions to us so fast!! 😍😊

Teresa Ortega

I’ve been violently hungover all day and this is bringing me so much joy 💕💕💕💕

Victoria Seymour

Watched live and instantly thought of you guys 🤪

Sara Rose

"It's nice to have Dorothea" is SO CONCERNING HELP. 😭😭😭

Katie LaFave

LAST TIME SHE DID DOROTHEA WAS ON THE PIANO & ON JULY 8TH WHICH WAS THE FIRST CONCERT TRAVIS WENT TO!!!!

dachiefs1969

You can tell when Emily isn't into the surprise songs. LOL

Natalie Reisner

My favorite part of these videos are you reacting to small clips from the show so I hope you keep doing that again!

dachiefs1969

I think Taylor likes to say, "I don't gaf, I'll sing my songs and you'll like it." LOL

Georgia Double

I have always DEEPLY loved and connected with It’s Nice to Have a Friend. To me it’s about your life long friend becoming your partner and all the little special memories along the way you have with each other. If INTHAF has no fans, I’m dead 🥲😂

K

Me, a tropical girly, being cold when the temp hits 26 degrees celcius hahaha

Lan

Dorothea is a GREAT song! Love it so much!

Georgia Double

Me too girl. Me too! Glad to know I’m not alone 🥹

Jodi L

Dorothea is one of my favorite Evermore songs! It was released during such a long winter & it made me really appreciate my friends 🫶💓😭 Love you girlies!

Jenna Bolmgren

I saw a theory on twitter that she called out the “I want every night to be unique” so we would count the days between the Haunted/exile mashups and apparently that number is significant (and of course, now I can’t remember what it is 🤦🏽‍♀️) 👀

Reese

My show was the first to get Dorothea, but I got it on the piano so seeing it on the guitar is a very different vibe! 😗✌️

Sanya Sharma

Ahhh love you both!! The next show being the 100th show is sooo offensive I’ve seen so many theories that she might do something superior for that show!! Could be so cool live reacting to the first Liverpool show ❤️

Georgia Double

SURELY the amount of Australian repeats means something?!! Literally I think I’ve seen this film before

Joe Weaver

And she did Haunted on June 9th last year too!

Maggie A

dorothea being my first surprise song to be repeated 🤞🏼😓

Spencer Glover

hoax and so long London would be insane

Gone Girl

When do you think she’ll bring out Haley for Castles Crumbling?

Rebecca

She performed Haunted June 9th 2023 in Detroit… and now June 9th 2024 in Edinburgh! Crazy! I was at the show in Detroit last year! 💜

Katie LaFave

you guys talking about how she's done haunted x exile before is how i feel how many times she's done yoyok. like if i were to go to the eras tour this year and she did yoyok i would be disappointed because she's already done it 6 times before

Aubrey McMichael

i’m enjoying the new format! but i think emily’s taking note idea could be a good compromise too 😊😊

Living Our Best Story

I think you can pause the livestream, it works for me on YouTube, but not sure on rewinding. Not sure where you get your live feed but that may be an option. Either way, love watching with you 🥰 sending hugs!

Mequet

WHYYYY did I think when y’all were talking about soon you’ll get better that Emily said “if she actually had the chiefs come out on stage with her” as in Travis’s football team 😭😭😭😭 I finally figured out you were saying “the chicks” omg

LindseyMarie

Thank you beautiful ladies!! I have zero preference on the two methods of you reacting to surprise songs, I really do just want you all to be getting the most out of this experience and that will in turn give most of us the reaction experience we love. I just feel so fortunate to have you sharing all of these with us! Stay warm, I’m in Kansas, but I also drink lots of hot tea all winter instead of cold water!

Mequet

The way I was the meme of the lady with the equations floating around her head trying to figure out what the chiefs had to do with cancer or Taylor’s mom being sick

Amanda P

besties do whatever you feel!! I think the live lead up is a fun vibe 🥰 if you react live, maybe just scroll on Twitter after to see if there were any major moments you missed? 🫶🏼

Katie LaFave

ughhhh superstar is soooo superior!!!! the bridge omg!!! one of my favs from fearless

Clare

I love how you don’t overthink everything like some folks. As soon as these mashups came along today it proved some theory about something and set two completely different groups off about it.

noah

i think she’s saving mary’s song for debut tv announcement, and she’s saving happiness for my show 🤭🤭 i need to know what you guys think she’ll do for the 100th show on the 13th!!

Katie LaFave

hey i don't appreciate the perfectly good heart slander! it's a good song! now is it my fav on debut? no, but is it my least favorite... also no. it's a good song

Derick

It’s worth noting that in Sydney, she did not sing her version of the exile chorus but here, she does.

Jami Marie

I like it when you guys watch it live, it feels more in the moment but ofc both ways are great in their own way!! 🥰

Kirsten Marie

They seemed sad she repeated the mash up.

Nick S

To me 'It's Nice To Have A Friend' has always felt like an updated Mary's Song (Lover version, if you will), because they both share the theme and story of childhood friends growing up, falling in love, and getting married. Both songs are underrated! Loved the mashup with Dorothea though 😍 Thank you for you consistent reactions-- however you do them.

Katie LaFave

please react to gracies new song!!

Ally ❤️

I am a Dorothea hater …. I’m so sorry… but no matter what Taylor sang to me, I would be happy. I mean, Seattle N1 we got “I forgot that you existed” on guitar - not my fav, but it slapped!

Rachael P

One suggestion is to watch the livestream on youtube and then you can pause the live! TaylorSwiftHockeyBro is my go to!

Sarah

You two just continue to be the highlights of the reaction world. Could listen to you guys chat forever! 🥰 Also, I'm loving the new way you guys are watching the surprise songs! Y'all being able to pause and chat during the performance is perfect. I'm fine with unlimited interruptions to hear ALL your comments, while knowing you won't be missing anything offensive! 😁

Mary Cousins

I already watched a live SS but love your reactions. I couldn’t believe how many people predicted the SS on the live chat before she played them.

Shannon

My guess is she’s saving happiness for a London show!

Katie LaFave

i really liked this way of doing things! i like you guys pausing to share your thoughts and being album to rewind

CRB

it's 105! and tn posted a tweet on love story tv's birthday which mentioned 105

Tess7

Emily is such a Haunted Stan that her brain glitches when Taylor starts playing it lol Haunted is the best! I really loved these 4 songs. I’m an absolute Dorothea Stan too lol I enjoy whichever way you want to do these reactions. I appreciate that you get up early or stay up late for them. I understand if you would rather get more sleep and react to it after. I’m here for the chats and the reacts 🙂 maybe you can do a combination of live reactions and ones you can pause depending on how you feel that day.

sumnoxquedies

It's one of my absolute faves - you're not alone 😊

Mary 🫶🏻🇨🇦

Love the format of pausing and stopping to talk to hear Taylor and you well! But also if there’s an announcement of a re-recording or something illegal happens it’s so fun to watch your live reactions like when speak now and 1989 was announced!! I fear for the 100th show on the 13th 🙈

Josh G

Taylor told me herself the real reason why she hasn't played Superstar is because she's purposefully waiting until I'm at a show again xoxo :)

Momo

I like this way of fathoming more, personally! It feels like there's more to intake. Like there could be something before/during/after the rest of the show that adds fun content and discussions!

Katie LaFave

next show is the 100th & it falls on the 13th!! slightly concerning 👀

kayla

All of your Outlander talk is making me want to rewatch the series.

Sarah

I literally heard Chiefs for a split second, too! I was like... I mean, I would be super confused, but we love a supportive team! 😂 Immediately realized she said Chicks, so it was a quick mental spiral at least!

michelle stuart

It’s nice to have a friend is an epic song IMO 🥰

• Sammy 🐍🖤 •

I do like this new way and how you can rewind if you don't hear something properly or want to listen again. But I think for shows you want to see live incase something happens e.g. the 100th this week I think you should for your raw live reaction incase something happens and you can be on it in real time! But we will be here no matter you girlies are feeling :) x

Annie

LOVE YOU GIRLS!! thinking about what I am going to do when tour is over is actually sooooooo sad and depressing to think about...like what do you mean I am not going to have this time every single week to get together with my swifties?!?!

Christine Violet

Can you guys react to Close to You by Gracie Abram’s too?! 😬😬

ton

I increasingly feel that she’ll have a long break to focus on football season and next album and spend some time having a life with TK

Sanya Sharma

Also I loveee the livestream reactions too they’re sooo wholesome!!! The energy is so precious ❤️

Ellie

It seems like Taylor extended the Exile portion that allows for more of the crowd singing the background vocals and she seemed to be enjoying/taking it in when it was happening in today's show. She also ended the song differently so when she was pointing out how each show is unique, she may be pointing out that even though she's repeating the same song/mashup, she's never going to sing it exactly the same way she's done before. I don't know what else Haunted could be mashed up with but Exile/The Last Time mashup would be iconic.

ton

You could watch the livestream on YouTube as it lets you pause whilst also being the livestream if you want both options

Jackie

Hey guys! As far as the surprise songs moving forward, I think that i agree watching the show live leading up to it is immaculate, and the eras tour won’t be going on forever (as much as i wish it would 😂) so you guys should be able to enjoy it live if you want while we still can!

Ally ❤️

I like hearing you react live, but so often you missed the biggest moments because of the “chattiness” I found that frustrating at times, but in all honesty- I trust that you will land on the vibe that suits you and that is the reason I have been here from the beginning.

Erica

The silence 😆

Erica

YES! Superior love story!

Jackie

Plus there’s always the refathomings of SS to watch clips later on!

ton

Thanks for the chat. I agree with the SS plans. I think Black Dog, Albatross, I hate it here are pretty London coded too and think Florida will wait for the US. I wonder if she’ll do the Manuscript with All too well

Kirstie

the live reactions are so fun! i don't think you should worry us missing anything when you're talking over it, we're able to go and watch those recordings ourselves without commentary if we want. live energy is the besttt 💛

Erica

It could be fun the day after a weekend of shows you guys have the camera on and do a little scroll on socials and chat about things you may have missed during the weekends shows? Like a weekend update? 🤭 regardless we love whatever you post! 🫶🏻💚

Green Wolf Gaymer

If she played Begin Again in Paris, you know damn well she's gonna play I Can See You in Liverpool as that's where the video was recorded.

maya zutra

The way she is powering tru all your ss. She misses you girlies next show will be come back be here on guitar and come back be here on piano 💕✨

Erica

So Long London X Happiness would be concerning!! Leave it all behind (London) and there is happiness (so long!) 🫢

maya zutra

And also about the feedback, I enjoy the most when you enjoy the most so genuinely do what feels right 🫶 maybe if it’s a chaotic night the mods can give you a heads up and then you can choose to do the format of rewatch&pause&talk 💕

Devan

I am still wondering about a happiness/so long London mash up. Imagine some superior mix where she sings the lines “There'll be happiness after you. But there was happiness because of you too”“you’ll find someoneeeeee” or honestly any of the lines from So Long London. Both have this feeling of acceptance (obviously to different degrees and rawness) That is my guess for Happiness ❤️

Taylah Louise

I must say I prefer this method so you can be chatty and we don’t miss the performance!

Jane 🩷

🚨VERY concerning🚨

Julia

Could you react live and maybe have the screen recording from just minutes before so you guys can go back and re-listen and discuss? You could screen record yourself when you are watching I'd reckon. Anyway love the reaction either way!

Christina

Love the middle path of jotting down some thoughts! You could also do some that way and some this way if you want :) BUT - I thiiiiink you two should be reacting live for the next - June 13th show (100th show) juuuuuuuust in case at least!!!

Alex M

I'll echo some of the other comments and say that the youtube livestream could be a good medium since it allows for pausing and rewinding! I personally know how much different it feels watching a livestream and not knowing whats going to happen vs watching a recording

Melissa Armenia

Just had an epiphany, what if she ended it on “I gave so many signs” because something is getting announced or released on Thursday. She’s telling us to look!

Carol

This seems accurate 🙌

Taylor Mitcham

God the way I hope she extends the tour and I finally have a chance to go see her. I would expire.

kenna🪽

i am thinking the same thing about her doing another leg in the u.s and if that is true….. babes i’m going to be capital B Broke

Marion

I get it, I get it... the time I visited Australia in your Autumn I definitely got to experience how surpringly cold and uncomfortable it can get, came down with a bladder infection in my first week there, and was always sleeping in a thick cardigan and still chilly during the nights. I get yers!

tbeckett

Yea maybe the girls can watch the surprise songs live during certain “special” shows like the 100th show etc

Danni

Maybe she’s doing repeats so she can release them and having a few to choose from is better from a production/editing perspective

Giulia

A perfectly good heart get behind me

Carol

As a kiwi living in Serbia with winters deep into the minuses… I can confirm that NZ and Australia winters feel MUCH colder 🥶🥶

maya zutra

I don’t believe you giulia

Giulia

I will protect it forever 😔

Jessica

Your houses not having heating or insulation is wild to me 😳😱 I honestly don’t understand how u endure it. I had no idea that Australian homes were like that. Now i can understand why u are freezing in only 9 degree weather lolol. But, surely u must have AC-type unites that can give off both cold air and heat..?? 👀😭

maya zutra

Speak your truth bestie

anntallogy

taylor said “let’s repeat this weekend some song for c&r but this time on glitchy livestream” for real

Liz

What are your thoughts on doing the livestream reactions live in real time as usual, but adding a bonus video on the nights after the shows of the weekend are over where you react to HQ videos and key moments from the weekend? Like an Edinburgh recap for example so you can pause and get into all the details you may have missed watching the streams live! 💕

Mytears83

Wtf. Can they stop pausing all the time! They didn’t use to do this.

Patty Minor

I like the original method and hope that you go back.

Katie LaFave

to me no exile performance will ever beat LA night 4!!! the way she sang the bridge/outro at the end was INCREDIBLE!!!

siobhan

DOROTHEA SUPREMACY!!!! i fear dorothea haters & i are simply not hearing the same song ✋🏼🚫

Mckenzie Seims

hi loves!! I know a lot of people have opinions on the format of these videos, I personally love both of them and whatever you do! but might be cool to have you watch/listen live and then update us at the beginning of the next video about things you see later on tiktok etc about small details. just noticing a lot of comments where people are very polar opposites on what they prefer and this could maybe be a happy medium so we get all your reactions but also we get to hear you talk about allllll details? just thoughts!! love you both!!! PS superstar is so good

S ✨

Omg yes I lived in Melbourne for a while and I was SHOCKED at how cold it got lol. I thought I would handle it fine because I’m from Sweden where winter temperatures reach -20 but Aussie winter is a different type of cold 😂 definitely has to do with the lack of heating - I was constantly freezing!

Hannah

Fully feel the winter discussion but the opposite for Swedish summer. When it gets over 25 degrees here it’s just impossible to cope. Sweden is not build for heat and aircon is just not a big thing. Betting on public transport or indoors at many places is just Russian roulette. Everything’s a sauna. In winter though, our buildings are standing their ground.

Claire

Just because you can pause now, doesn’t mean you should - it does interrupt the experience and chaotic energy of your surprise song reactions which is part of the whole SS experience 🤩

Mytears83

Exactly my thoughts.

Aloha Record Sargent

I will watch whatever you do, but I think it makes sense to just watch the live stream, so you can catch the vibe of the show and so you don't miss any announcements in real time!

Dianne Janssen

I definitely think you should watch the first Liverpool show live, cause it’s on the 13th and it’s the 100th eras show so Taylor might do something crazy

Marion

Re format preferences: what you Emily said right at the end here would be my favourite, i.e. yous reacting to the livestream, but chatting less during the songs and rather jotting down notes to refer back to after she's finished the ss set. 👍

Ruby Ozolins

Guys thank you, as always!!! Love that you are appreciating outlander - Jamie has been my book crush since I was 17 and I love seeing people get on board! And for the accents you tried yesterday, ‘wee bonny lass’ is my favourite line to attempt and so fitting hahaha! Re: secret songs, I’d be happy with both options as it suits! The live is so fun, and I don’t mind the chatting that much - but I do really love the rewatch when you can pause and rewind if you missed anything or want to rewatch! Don’t rule out just doing whatever works on the day/weekend - time zones and the mods being busy might be factors! As always, thank you ❤️❤️❤️

emma 🌷

the it’s nice to have a friend acoustic snippet was so so pretty !

Anahi Figueroa

I'm loooooooving this new way of reacting, specially the fact that you can scroll through Twitter, see a few posts and chat about it!

TScout

React however you would like! All versions, all styles, are wonderful! 💓💓💓💓 Thank you for doing it!

S ✨

Just do your thing! There are no rules to how you should film your reaction. We enjoy it regardless ❤️ also if you watch the live stream and then you want to rewind or see if you missed anything - just go on twitter because they post the performances right away.

Hannah Rose

It’s nice to have a friend is one of my favorite songs and I don’t get why it gets slept on! It literally is a precursor sound to what folklore became! I love the different unique sounds and rhythm that isn’t completely standard. It also reminds me of visiting Japan.

Jessica

I think it’s more fun to stream live. The eras tour isn’t going to last forever, so you 2 should enjoy it live! I stream on YouTube whenever I do watch it live and I’m always able to pause and rewind on there.

Lindsay

I will watch any format of these but will say that I come here for you... so if you go back to watching live I prefer you to just chat away and not try to be silent. You were always really good about following up in the next video if you missed something! You can't please everyone so I think you should do what feels most authentic to you.

Jaime Kelley

Ttds x daylight was my WORST loss this weekend Also psa for the girlies, Noah kahan has London shows on aug 21 & 22 👀

Mary Cousins

Amazing harmony with the crowd.

kirstie b

what if travis came on stage last show?

Carol

Yes and yes 🙌 💯

mieke

superstar forever 🫶🏻

Jenn Hamel

I cannot stress enough how much PEACE it brings me when you pause to talk OH my goodness

Sean

Hold up, have we not fathomed It’s Nice To Have A Friend? Cause I love that song and I have thoughts (I might be the only INTHAF stan on planet earth) I take it as a similar idea to Mary’s song, the story of a couple told over a long span of time. First verse is two kids meeting and becoming friends, second verse flashes forward to their teen years and one of them makes a romantic move, third verse we jump to them being adults and getting married (Edit: welp Bonny explained this same thing ten seconds later lol, maybe I should watch further before writing paragraphs) As for the sound, idk I guess it’s just a personal preference thing, but I like it. It’s weird, for sure, but I don’t get the creepy vibe some people get off it. It feels like a quiet sweetness to me, we matches the very down-to-earth simplicity of the love story

Liz

I think whatever format you girls wanna do go for it! We will be happy with whatever you choose! I would get how watching live would maybe have more excitement for you, but also kind of maybe not super convenient with time zone differences. So you do whatever you want and please talk whenever you want! We can go watch clips whenever on our own free time. We are here to get the fathomings in whatever way feels most authentic and fun to you! I can’t wait to see what she plays for SS in London. 👀

Emelie

I really can’t believe how unprepared some countries are for climate change 😅 like I live in Germany and we do not normally have AC so we’re suffering a lot in summer not that it’s super hot and it seems the other way around for you! No heating and super cold in winter 😅 why are we just not prepared

Rayne Erwin

I didn’t know people didn’t love dorothea! I’m obsessed with dorothea, that’s crazy.

Faustine L

I do like the pausing freedom but also I'll watch anyway and I still like to go on YouTube to find the performance because I can't hear super well from your video anyway. So, another do what you prefer ✨

Mille Kragerup

I don’t know if you’ve fathomed after you uploaded this but it’s been reported that the eras tour will be going to turkey in 2025! Which could mean she might release debut in 2025 but who knows💕🫶🏻

Jasmine

my shows next!!

Emelie

She also repeated is it over now and I wish you would recently didn’t she?

sarahhdear

I watch the live via YouTube… you can pause and rewind on there.

Bianka Ozsvath

I miss the livestream reactions too, personally (obviously either way is perfectly fine) but just knowing that we are watching together the same thing at the same time is so special :) I never mind if you have comments during the songs, also because they are available on every online platform, so if anyone feels like listening to them, it is an option! These videos are not for listening to the surprise songs, but your commentary and honest reaction :) LOVE xxxxxx

Gordon Werner

lol. Here in Seattle, everything’s built like we never have two months each year of extreme heat so we all melt

Emelie

Do you think she’ll play bigger than the whole sky again after playing it last year for the Brazilian girl?

Lucy

If you watch the livestream on YouTube you can pause and rewind! Might be the best of both worlds xx

Tayler Newman

lol their reaction to the repeated Haunted mashup was so sad but lowkey funny. It gives the energy as when you find out your partner took their ex to the same spot, you think it’s special but it’s not. Idk if that makes sense lol. Either way l love the Haunted/Exile they are some of my favorite songs in her catalog.

Amanda

I don’t agree with the part of repeating the same mash up that it isn’t a surprise anymore. Exile is such a fan favorite. It works well with haunted and the crowd loved it again. Not everyone watch every show. I have friends with who I am going to the tour who hasn’t seen any of it. So for most it’s still a surprise. I love that she is repeating some, cause some where so superior!

E ✨🩷

i was very happy to hear exile x haunted live! was a magical moment when the crowd sang it back :) post eras tour depression today 😭

Betty

I think it hits different to watch it live especially because I’m DEEPLY CONCERNED that some announcement happens and she does outfit changes or something else leading up to it, and I wouldn’t want you to miss it!!

Gia

LIVE LIVE LIVE! My anxiety of you missing something can handle it because you gals DO NOT MISS A BEAT. Love ya ♥️🥰

Will McNally

Man INTHAF is one of my faves and it felt like I couldn't even get half of one of her shortest songs because she knows it's just not popular

Mollie

I was at the show last night and it was honestly the most emotional happy surreal experience ever, girly sang haunted and exile into my eyes and I immediately thought of Em with haunted. Thank you girlies so much for this community, I was thinking of you both so much and how grateful I am 💗

charlychops

I was there last night and i loved exile / Haunted and it felt really special. In some ways it kinda felt like she loved that mashup so much the first time that she wanted to play it again for us. The duetting with the crowd was seriously amazing

Anna Valla

The way she played Haunted in Detroit exactly a YEAR AGO too

paulina ⭐️

i delulued myself into thinking that she’s saving forever winter for one on my shows 🕯️✨🙏

Dorka

@chatsandreacts I cant believe it, this was a person attack for me. It's Nice to Have a Friend is my top song from Lover and my namesake song??? I should have been there.

Emma

I feel like watching it a bit after works for now when we are kinda sure nothing completely unhinged seems to be happening but if she were to announce something or like really go off script for something in the acoustic set I would actually prefer you’d react to the live when it’s actually happening in order to not get spoiled or someone saying “oh somethings big has happened” and it’s just nice to think you actually saw it the same time as us. I totally fine with reacting live. If you missed some tv ing big we/social media will let you know and you can watch that after and you will do refathomings where it’s more focus on the details so I’m totally fine with you reacting live!! But I do love your chats of course as well! Whatever you decide will be great!

Míša Janková

I always thought INTHAF is made up song similar to Mary's Song in its story. Like two kids meeting at school and one of them is nice to the other and invites them to their home and that's the moment they become friends and then years later, there is another significant night when the other person touches their hand and their become more than friends (even tho they still have a friend in each other of course) and the last significant night in the song is about them getting married. I think it's a beautiful song and I personally love it so much lol the only negative thing I can say is that it's too short.

Jacob

Feel like I prefer the actual live reaction, in the moment etc. That genuine first time excitement

Míša Janková

right? I love it so much and I'm sad she mashed it up so fast/didn't come back to it in the mash up. I get that the last verse doesn't make sense with dorothea but the rest of the song does.

Hollie

We are all clowning for the 100th show on 13th June so it might be more fun for you to watch that one live? Maybe try watching on YouTube instead of tiktok because you can pause and rewind a live there?

Jess.

My own personal theory is that she will perform Mary's Song after she and Travis announce their engagement 💍😍 And no, I don't think she will extend the tour after December. I also don't think the re-recordings era will be done before the tour ends. She may release one, maybe, but I wouldn't be surprised if the last one or two re-recordings are released next year

Mona

I actually think it's nice to have a friend is one of here most underrated song ever I LOVE it . For me it's about feeling so completely safe in a relationship that you call them your friend and you grow up all over again but this time in a healthy relationship it's also about the innocence of the beginning stage of a relationship. It's actually so PERFECT I don't understand why it's never talk about it's like in my top 3 lover song et probably top 30 song ever of Taylor Swift

Katie K

I feel like you need to watch the next show - the 100th show - live!! I’m so excited to seen what she has in store!

Jessie

Hoax x Black Dog YES I AM HERE FOR IT!!!!

MarkH

I guess I'm thinking she will announce rep or possibly debut on this leg of the tour, maybe in London, and it will come out in September or October, during her break. But then I don't know where the last one fits; I am not sure there is enough time in the year left for it.

Katie K

Also I LOVED the energy of you guys watching the show live!! That’s what I was used to all this time and I really didn’t mind you talking over things. You’re our chatty chickens and we love that about you!! 🐥💖 If anyone says you missed something important then you could just watch a better recording on Tik Tok or something in the next SS reaction If really necessary? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Nele

It's nice to have Dorothea was so cuuute

brenda 🌸

hi girls! my husband and I are loving your surprise song reactions and this new format too!! I think you girlies have so much to say/fathom that it works to be able to pause and chit chat between the songs etc!! but always do what you prefer and also what helps you feel like youre having the best experience as a FAN first and foremost. Love you girls!!!!!!!!!!!

brenda 🌸

also we met you guys on the sydney night when she played haunted x exile <3

Melanie Whybrow

Unpopular opinion, I actually love "it's nice to have a friend" 💕

Maria

Omg yes!!!

Maria

This is what I do! Haha

Rachel Thompson

I did not survive the 3 nights of Edinburgh. The best 3 days of my life. I’m dead. Gone. 💀🤍

Lefty

Funny how as a race, we just don't make suitable houses for where we live. Here in the UK our houses are designed to keep heat in and we don't have air conditioning, so summers are diabolical. There are pros and cons about both obviously, but I think it's a bit more exciting to watch the show live; in previous reactions you've caught random little things that happened before the surprise songs, and the biggest thing for me is if she reveals something at some point. I think it'd be nicer if it was unexpected when it happens, than you probably receiving a thousand messages saying something has happened. And like Emily said, jotting a couple of notes down is probably a decent way of keeping up without interrupting.

charlychops

Also, in the moment I didn't remember it was a repeat mashup, it was just so exciting, the joy at hearing Exile from the whole audience was so obvious! Also, my section was singing INTHAF so loud, i dunno why you can't hear anything on the recordings!

Mike Roach

I totally get what you're feeling about when you're not watching it live. It's just not the same to watch live events on a delay. If you want to pause and rewind though, there is a best of both worlds option. When you watch on YouTube (taylorswifthockeybro does a good stream!), you can pause and rewind live streams while they're going on. Either way, as long as you two are reacting and happy, I'm happy!

Julia toniato

I completely understand the weather thing, I live in a beach town in Brazil and last week it was 16 degrees and I was D Y I N G

Lizzie

My show's this Saturday in Liverpool!! I always get surprise songs off Fearless when I see her live (Fearless at Red tour/Fifteen at Rep) so if I get Superstar or Change I am going to dieeee 🥹💗 Bonny & Emily you guys are the besttt this is the most excited I've ever felt for a Taylor tour and I swear half the reason is you guys getting so hyped over the surprise songs every night 😂💖

Raegan

I feel you on house construction issues 😭 I live in the Midwest USA where we have so many tornadoes and our houses are absolutely not built to withstand them

V

btw the next show in Liverpool on the 13th is the 100th show! (which is also somehow taylors half birthday 😭😭😭) let the clowning commence! 🤡

Brittany Chantler

Hear me out, Clara bow will be played the night she announces debut. “You look like Taylor swift” 🫣

Taliah

Omg I'll be there!! At one of the Liverpool shows I reckon she'll play "the lakes" simply bc it's the closest location TO the lakes so would be lovely to hear that :)

Carol

💯 this 🫶 I mean the channel’s called *chats* and reacts, not “sit quietly” and react.

Carol

I was thinking the same. But I feel like Rep is tied to TTPD and should come next. But to have Debut out when she returns “home” to the US just feels right. Mother knows best and we’ll find out one day 🤡😄

Lizzie

ooo I hadn't considered that but yess that's definitely a contender! I'd love that 😍

Josh G

SAUR TRUE MIEKYMOO <3

Rachel Gresser

With INTHAF and crazier the day before - she really said to Edinburgh “it was rare, you were there”!! I went to nights 2&3 and both were absolutely wild!! Also thought of you two and how you also heard AOTGYLB and hauntedxExile! ♥️ I came into this show hoping for a evermore or folklore song so I was ELATED when we got Dorothea, and then. Exile was just heaven!!! So crazy, felt so proud to sing the duet part with her and seeing her smile like that…

alex

I only fathomed just now that you guys will touch German ground this year / summer it’s actually a little too much 🥹

Kara Mills

Have u reacted to Gracie’s new song?

Maya

I think you should go back to the livestream, it's just a certain vibe :) but if there is a specific thing you want to talk about or she says something that needs fathoming, then add a clip at the end where you can watch it back (i guess a couple of hours later)

Lively_Ash

I actually like INTHAF 💛

Melina

I love that you can pause and talk and we still get all of the song!

Christiana Somers

Weirdly, in my head for a second, I almost thought she was gonna mash up Haunted and Cold As You. I know the rhythm is different BUT the sentiment is so similar I could see them going together really well.

Heaven Hiller

I personally watch the live in real time on yt or TikTok. Then watch your reaction to the live later. I much prefer the chaos of you watching it live and don’t feel like I’m missing anything because I have already seen the set. But I do feel like you are missing something by not watching it live :( But I don’t mind either way 🥶

k80scorner

I’m not sure when you’ll be able to react to the new acoustic tracks because my cds with them say shipping on or before July 1st, could be before then but I wouldn’t expect them until maybe the end of the month!

KyraB

I like either format but if you wanted a combo you could watch the Taylorswifthockeybro on YouTube because you I know you can pause and I think you can rewind YouTube livestream as needed.

Mika

Two things, one if you want to react live you can always watch on YouTube, you can both pause, and rewind which is nice… and secondly are you going to react to close to you by Gracie???

abbeyeli92

Liverpool N2 baby!!!! 😍😍😍

maya zutra

They said they will react to it when reacting to the new album 😊

Mika

Oh thanks🫶🫶

Sophie

I think I prefer the live reactions! The vibes are just a little more exciting and I actually really love the random chats in the middle of the songs. But of course I’ll enjoy either way so do whatever works best for you girlies :)

Mazy

I actually feel dead right now after last night! Edi night 3 was amazing ☺︎

Monique New

My only hesitation with prerecorded, is that you might miss announcements, or hear prior and not capture a reaction? For example, considering it’s the 100th show and the 13th of the month next show, I think live is the best!! I never had any complaints either way. Refathomings come later. And I’m here for it.

Nikol Greplová

I personally prefer the live reaction as well! :) Mostly because that's what's kind of special to us all about it, that we are able to witness miss Taylor doing illegal things in real time, it has some magic. However! If you chose to watch the recorded livestreams instead because it's in some way easier for you, that would be completely understandable ofc!

Emily Warfield

Does anyone else relate to Dorothea as a long distance girl bestie?

Lauren Schwartzman

This is my theory. She’s repeating the faves (mashups and full songs) so she can pick the best ones for a live album

Hannah

No heating?!? That is wild to me

Sophie

Have you guys ever tried streaming through YouTube via taylorswifthockeybro? That way you can watch live but still pause and rewind! 🤗

Annika 📍Melb, AU

Taylor’s having so much fun in Europe she doesn’t have time to rehearse two new songs every night. 🤣 Good for her!

Taylor

Personally I like the pre recorded so you can pause and rewind. Love you! ❤️

Vee

I feel like it would make sense for her to extend the tour into 2025 if she wants to release all of the re-records during The Eras Tour, only bc January 29 2025 is the start of The Year of the SNAKE. And I just feel like what a great time to release Rep Re-record 🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍

Vee

Yessss!!

Annika 📍Melb, AU

Does he still take his shirt off during the secret songs? 🙄

Emma Axner

I think there’s a couple different theories floating around. One I saw someone mention is that it was 105 days between them and they then correlated it to Travis birthday being 10/5.

Karis Gorst

honestly my first thought at the end of the surprise songs this weekend was that she’s loving playing all the ones that emily and bonny got 😂

💯

My take on the style of the reactions is really to just enjoy how you both want to. If someone wants to hear it, they can watch their own livestreams. I want interruptions and fathoming. Now I do want you girlies to be chatting more after! Maybe start a end of the week fathoming of all the small things? Or maybe do that the following weekend while waiting for songs to start. Im not an expert. Just know Im donating to you both regardless!!! Love you both and keep up the hard work!!

Liv

I would love if she played "You'll Always Find Your Way Back Home" when she announces Debut

imogen

ahhh its so surreal you girlies saying liverpool because thats my show!!! i SIMPLY CANNOT WAIT. Also i doubt Taylor would ever play Ronan as she always asks his mothers permission and she did that when she attended in the US leg and she said no so she didnt play it :)

Brooke Penniman

I feel like I'm the only one especially when you talk about it but I love "its nice to have a friend"!

alden

I PREFER THE PAUSE + REWIND STYLE ! More time to get predictions in, esp for the 2nd song of a mashup AND so you guys can pause and discuss without missing any of the offensive subtle changes she's making to the songs 🫶

Sam

Just chiming in to agree with those saying you should def watch the 100th show on the 13th live. Can’t see Taylor letting that one slide without something offensive happening. Will be happy with whatever format you choose, but I do think there is something a little more exciting/chaotic about reacting live.

Alex

They can pause now because they're not watching it live. You don't have to be rude about it though. 😕

Ashley

This format is going to have you missing a live announcment of some sort! Everything you do is working well and you girls being yourselves is how you built this community! Go back to chatting and reacting! :) (I couldn't imagine finding a patreon page and then inserting myself into wanting the page to change for ME ME ME. Get it together people!)

Alex

Completely agree!

Luisa H.

Is there there way to download the video to watch it offline? I’ll be on a plane back from Edinburgh later and would love to watch! 🫶

Meg A.

I prefer the recorded reactions, I love the extra fathomings and the freedom that you can do them whenever you’re up and have a cozy little tea.

Brooke Noelle

Would you consider reacting live, taking like a 30min tea break, then going back to find a good quality vid on TT or something where you can pause and fathom everything? I know it would require watching twice with us, but maybe it’d give us all the best of both worlds!?

Brooke Noelle

This Brooke really likes it too!

Jaimie C

love your reactions either way! a few ideas: 1) being able to pause and chat/predict does work well so you don't miss (your reactions to the offensive things she does is so much fun 💕) 2) if you are feeling like you are missing out on watching the lead up to the acoustic set, go for it and do it all live (it is also so much fun to hear you chat as Taylor is in the the lead-up & TTPD set + Emily gets to end the acoustic set with her 'ahah-ahahs' as Midnights starts 🤩 ) 3) you could watch the lead up live, then pause and wait to watch a screen record/high quality version so you can still pause & chat (god that would be so hard to shut off the live just b4 the acoustic set though 😱😭) 4) you could just do the lives when the timezone works better for your schedules & do the non-lives when shows are middle of the night/too early for you 🤔 Ugh sorry for the suggestion dump 😬 Anyhow, I love all your reactions any which way you choose them and if they feel right for you! 💕

Meredith

I enjoy y’all’s reactions either way, but personally like the energy of the livestream more! And feel free to chat all you want. If people want to watch the surprise songs uninterrupted they can do so on so many other formats! 🤍

Jesse Conner

Just a random thought about Dorothea - I had assumed she was a movie star or model but the song never really mentions what kind of fame she has except seeing her on a “tiny screen” and she’s “selling makeup and magazines” but this could absolutely be any kind of online influencer and the tiny screen is a phone. Also that she is “known for who you know” but again, not acting or singing, just being connected.

isabel

yes!! all the theories going around on twitter, although i know they don’t use it as often, is predicting SOMETHING may happen then, so i agree, yall should live stream on the 13th!!! who knows what’ll happen 🤭

Laila

My opinion is that whatever YOU decide to do is ok with me! lol...But I think reacting live is a little more exciting for you too...and so what if you chat a little bit here and there! It's what we love about you ladies.

Alycia Ortiz

If you watch taylorswifthockeybro on Youtube, you can watch live and pause if you want to...best of both worlds!

Leigh

I feel like UK and Australia are opposites! People always tell brits to shush about the heat because it doesnt seem that warm but in the same way your houses and establishments just arent built for the cold, ours aren't built for summer! And with it getting warmer every year it's just not a fun time

Taylor

Did you know she played Haunted the first time in Detroit on 6/9/23 and now she played Haunted again 6/9/24!

Kristy

I like you being able to pause and chat because sometimes when you chat over the song YOU miss something. I know some people are saying if we want to watch and hear everything to watch the livestream elsewhere, but I’m not upset about me missing it, I just feel bad that you two missed it and so then couldn’t comment on it lol I’ll support whatever y’all choose, of course, but I think it’s nice for you to be able to pause and rewind as needed :)

Sara

I love anything you guys do but I have been enjoying the videos lately!! I like that you guys can pause and talk about things as they’re happening without missing anything in the song and it feels like it flows more naturally this way!

Sara Harms

I was thinking if you’re going to react to a recording, you could do one of the tik tok versions where it’s clearer and you don’t hear the live-streamer. But personally I still vote for you reacting live.

Faith

I was at the show Sunday night and the crowd was so loud! especially in the exile duet parts haha, honestly so so so happy with the surprise songs, Dorothea is such an underrated song and it sounded so good with its nice to have a friend, and of course haunted x exile is a superior mashup, lots of love guys, thank you so much for reacting as always 😊🫶🏼❤️

Nin Reckermann

possibly unpopular opinion but I don't understand the Perfectly Good Heart slander girls

Kelly

It is highly suspicious that she repeated the Haunted/Exile mashup right after she said she always tries to do new mashups. It feels like an Easter Egg, but I think it's for a re-record announcement in Liverpool. It will be her 100th show, and it's the 13th. Some are speculating on Rep TV, but I've been considering Debut lately as the next re-record she drops.

Kelly

We are definitely getting some sort of an announcement 🤡

Shawn carni

I love it both ways but I do kind of prefer the live sleepy reactions 😂 but this is great too so you are able to pause it. Whatever makes you girls happy and is easiest for you🫶

Mads

I didn't know that it's nice to have a friend isn't popular?! It's one of my favorites off Lover!

Mytears83

Well. That does it for me. I wanted their live reactions exactly when it happened. Probably won’t watch the reactions anymore then. Sorry if I was rude. Not my intention.

Abby Hawes

I really enjoy the recorded reactions where you can pause the video and chat! I saw another comment saying if you watch a youtube livestream you can pause the video while watching live which would give you the best of both worlds! But either way I am so grateful for all the extra content you guys are giving us! Do whatever you think is best!

Lizzie Page

I know it could be a bit more work, but I do like the idea of you guys reacting live and then reacting to some recorded videos 30 minutes later to see if you missed anything - there’s always good quality videos on tik tok 30 minutes after the SS section where you can actually see her face

Océane Beccaris

I think about the repeated mashup, I wonder if she will do exile or out of the woods alone, and not within another song, because I think it is a shame that these incredible songs are shorted and dependent of other songs each time

J R

I will never understand why It’s Nice to Have a Friend is so alienating to people because it perfectly expresses how I feel in my relationship and is one of my favorite TS love songs. The feeling of meeting someone I truly feel is my best friend and knowing we would have become friends even as kids before being interested in romance because a feeling of being kindred spirits is at the foundation of the love. The relief and healing of being able to be my silliest self and be seen and valued in such a simple and gentle way… dating other men, it always felt like they couldn’t fully see me (a woman) as a fully three dimensional person in that kind of fun bestie way.

Ali ❤️‍🔥

I think everyone just NEEDS to fathom it’s nice to have a friend. To me it’s about falling in love with someone while kind of hiding it and saying you’re just friends. I think it’s a bit cheeky like “oh it’s nice to have a friend” but it’s more than friends. Favorite line is “something gave you the nerve to touch my hand, it’s nice to have a friend” I hear people saying the melody is creepy but I think it sounds like when you’re far away from a party or something, it sounds like a private moment. I neeeeed you girls to fathom 😂

Bethany

as someone that's been contemplating starting outlander for a while now, i'm taking this as a sign to do it

Mytears83

Me too. I love that song have loved it since the first time I heard it.

BrooklynSwifty

It’s Nice to Have a Friend is superior. And it’s the same theme as Mary’s Song: childhood friends grow up, fall in love, get married. Oh my my my!

Jaime McKee

He does for Vigilante Shit. He does a little skit or outfit change for different eras and songs.

BrooklynSwifty

And the trumpet gives me a Beatles vibe, kinda like on Penny Lane.

Danielle

I truly can’t fathom why it’s nice to have a friend is so disliked. It’s actually crazy to me?

RuthGA

I love the It's Nice to Have a Friend and Dorothea mashup because both songs remind me of green hills and small towns, which is what I imagine Scotland looks like. For me "It's Nice to Have a Friend" is a story that starts with two kids, doing kid things and becoming friends (i.e. sidewalk chalk, video games, sleeping in tents) then it moves forward to one day when they touch hands and their relationship changes (for the first time they view each other in a romantic way) then it ends with them getting married (i.e. church bells ring, rice on the ground)

F1Swiftie

I live right outside Austin TX and most of our houses are also made for summer warm weather and we are not prepared for ice/snow any of that.

Jenna

IT'S NICE TO HAVE A FRIEND DESERVES SO MUCH BETTER. TOP 5 ON LOVER FOR ME... HMP.

F1Swiftie

Wait, people don't like Dorothea??? It's so fun to sing along with!

Julia Chuang

Have you guys thought about watching the YouTube livestreams live and just pause when you need to? And then you'll see it partially live at least?

Remy Spencer

Wait im genuinely curious why no one likes dorothea??? Its my 2nd fav from evermore

Annie

there is a YouTube live where you can pause. just a thought since you cant pause tik tok lives like YouTube. might be the best of both (going the live aspect and the ability to paise). It's usually streamed by taylorswifthockeybro.

Jaimi Carter

I love this way of doing the surprise songs best, but let’s be real, I love everything you give us. 🫶🏻

Brenda1989

Maybe she will just keep releasing new albums and slotting them into the tour while slowly phasing out the older eras and then create a whole new tour lol

Eirini

Totally random but I would love to hear a perfectly good heart 😅 I don’t get the slander on this song… it’s not the best but still it’s pretty good 🤷‍♀️

angel (plnkblue)

Its Nice To Have A Friend is a snapshot of a friends to lovers story, just like how Mary’s Song is. Each verse touches on a different phase: first verse is meeting in childhood, second verse is falling in love as teenagers, and the final verse is them getting married.

Alex

I see what you mean. I personally don't mind it but I can understand your frustration, no worries.

Carol

Me watching to see how this comment ages 👀

angel (plnkblue)

I get why people like the pause and rewind, but I think part of the fun is getting to know that you guys are reacting and fathoming live at the same time as all of us, and that’s how its always been. None of us can pause live, either. Also, I think the pause and chat sort of defeats the purpose of also having the SS refathoming series. Either way, we’ll love whatever yall choose to do ❤️

George

i agree! i saw someone say that it would make a good mashup with seven and i kind of agree and need it

Joe Weaver

Oh nooo poor A Perfectly Good Heart! 😂😂😂

Allie

Has anyone seen how these repeat mashups were done nights before big announcements? Are these repeats "Easter eggs" for a big announcement at the 6/13 show? 🤡

Allie

Yessss

KyraB

Honestly I don’t stream on YouTube unless I know I’m going to be interrupted so I can pause so never really paid attention to what he was doing

Lisa Kell

Taylor will sing 'Mary's Song' in Liverpool, in honor of Paul McCartney's mother. I'd bet money on that. Plus, you know Paul will get a nod during Era's Tour. Taylor loves Paul McCartney and probably vice versa given that he cared enough to write her a note that she framed and hung on her wall.

Lisa Kell

p.s. Yes, I like the new format where you pause the video and then express your immediate thoughts. Immediate thoughts are great to hear, and then you go back to watching. I like this a thousand times better than you over-talking Taylor while she is singing - possibly missing something. The new way where you pause then play is great.

Emma Mcharg

I'm at the 1st liverpool show and with it being the 100th show on the 13th, I'm very nervous about what she's gonna do.

Rhi Louise

I thought the same! I’m going Saturday too!

Joe Weaver

Maybe I'm reading it wrong but I sensed from the end of the video that you'd prefer to react to these live. And while I think there are benefits to doing it this way, the energy doesn't feel quite the same as when we get you watching a little of the TTPD set, kinda getting the excitement going for a few minutes so...either way is good, but do what you want to do. We'd been watching like 90 of these the old way & enjoyed it...its fine. And then Mieke doesn't have to worry about falling asleep & missing doing the screen recording either. (She mentioned it on Discord yesterday).

kayla ramoutar

COMPLETELY agree. the energy feels different and like.. almost too youtube? lol. i want Em and Bon to be natural and comfortable on patreon and do what THEY want to do day-to-day. but the vibe here is different and it feels like they're not loving the new format.

Britt & Tori

I like that you can pause now too if yall are still taking opinions on that lol

kayla ramoutar

i've said this on other videos but i'll say it again bc i've never learned how to shut up lol. i don't watch these videos to watch taylor; i watch her live or find the vid on tiktok afterwards. i watch these videos to enjoy YOU watching the songs, and i honestly think there's something missing from these last few videos. i think the chaotic sleepy reactions are so so fun and it's like we're all hanging out and drinking tea while the livestream plays. of course, if you don't want to react live that's one thing, but it seems like you changed because some people wanted you to not because YOU wanted to. i know that you want to ~listen to us because we're "paying customers" (technically lol) but this format just doesn't feel the same to me. i want to watch you guys be you, not do what others want. my favourite thing about you two is how authentic you guys are! i love our little morning/night/whatever time chats with tea and a 30~ min secret song video. the pausing and rewinding just isn't doing it for me — i'm obviously going to watch them all anyway lmao, but i wanted you to know that there are people here who liked it the way it was, because it felt so authentic and lovely. whatever you guys decide, i'm here to watch you two. not taylor. i couldn't care less if you guys miss a key change because i know you'll see it later on twit or tiktok! anyway i love you guys, please choose what makes YOU happy xoxo

Emma

She can’t play Ivy until Cardiff

Chloe

Guys I’m going to Liverpool, I’m next🥲🥲🥲 and I’m completely insufferable. Everyone I’m speaking to this week I’m like “hi I’m going to Taylor Swift Saturday”💀😂 aaaaaaaahhhh!!

Nela

YES, i second this, I watch him too! 🥰

Kiki

You could switch to a YouTube live, that way you'll be able to pause and rewind:)

Emma

I know it’s a repeat BUT this is SUCH a mash up

Victoria

these were my surprise songs and honestly inthaf x dorothea was absolutely gorgeous live. i've always been a dorothea stan and i've always liked inthaf but never LOVED it, but i could never be mad about that being my surprise song. it was beautiful!!!! i definitely have a new appreciation for inthaf now too <3

Emma

Omg, tolerate it and so long London

Julia Lesmister

I really liked the reactions to the live. It didn’t bother me at all that you talked over the songs; I’m here for your thoughts and if I want to watch the full live I can always do that on Instagram during or later. I think you should do things the way that feels best for you bc then you bring the best of yourselves. I’m happy either way, as long as it makes you happy 💕

nicole

Definitely watch the next one live!! It’s the 100th show who knows what might happen 🫢

James

I was there last night!!! I honestly forgot she mashed it up with exile before and completely lost it because it felt like there wouldn't be a mashup 😭

shedaris

I love it better this way, because a lot of times I already know the best moments during the surprise songs, and it's quite sad to see you miss those live due to live glitches or you talking about something else, but do it how you like best:)

Catherine (YOYOK stan)

I am here for you ladies enjoying and reacting to Taylor so for my money talk all you want and it’s so fun to see your reaction to the livestream cuz it just makes it more fun!! Half the fun is the surprise of it all I think but that’s just my opini 🥰🥰

Ariel

Do you ladies watch Bridgerton? It’s one of my favorites, along with Outlander!

Chats & Reacts

ABSOLUTELY!!!! I (Emily) am also reading it at the moment 🥰 Bonny has watched a few eps but didnt get into it!

Rachel Bea

I prefer when you react to the livestream, it makes it feel like we're watching it together. Also, people are quick to point out what you miss in the comments anyway - which I enjoy reading. Any further thoughts can be saved for a refathoming or a mention in another video.

Charlotte Irene

Something about the instruments and the melody of It’s Nice to Have a Friend, with the vocals at the beginning before Taylor starts to sing, it always makes me think of Japan in the spring with cherry blossom trees in bloom all around. Did Taylor ever spend any time in Japan or China before Lover came out? I rather like it; she’s a cute lil “friendship to love” song. I’m not musical, so I have no idea what the “plucky” sounding instrument is throughout the song. A harp or stringed instrument of some kind? It’s quite lovely.

Charlotte Irene

I WONDERED if maybe houses in Australia had less insulation, and I also wondered how they were heated… Turns out they are not!!! 😱 Do you even have fire places? Makes total sense now why you are freezing when it’s only 10ºC. I’m so sorry - that sounds like torture 🥶 Thanks for sharing about the land down under!

Miriam

Just popping into this comment section to let you guys know I had to go the emergency room all last night and your videos helped me pass the time 🤍🤍🤍 LOVE YOU

Charlotte Irene

Bon & Em had also gotten “Haunted x Exile” at their Sydney concert, so it was perhaps a bit surprising to them to hear a repeat mashup.

Charlotte Irene

I think she also likes to say, “They are ALL superior, let me show you…”

izzy

saving it for rep tv announcement we reckon

Julia

Of the girlies see this, the YouTube live is Kevin @taylorswifthockeybro him and tess help eachother find lives! He does sometime talk but tried not to over songs

c

I think you guys should film these videos whichever way you prefer!!!!

majesticwestwick

She should add it to the set list when Rep tv comes out😍

Rachel P.

My theory is that the repeated mashups are due to the original one not being perfect, either she made a vocal mistake or there was a mistake in the recording of it. And she may be planning to release an album of these live surprise songs. So she wants to redo the good mashups that maybe went wrong so she can include them!

Chelsea

San Francisco is having the exact opposite problem! The city by the bay has historically been so cold that there’s not air conditioning in older buildings and the city absolutely loses its mind when it gets above 90 degrees F which is happening more often with global warming.

Kaci

When Taylor sang the mash up did she sing so many signs as many times she did this time? 🕵🏻

Adriana

I've commented this on a few TikToks but I thought I would repeat it here too. As a Sydney N3 gal, I'm not mad about the Haunted x Exile mashup repeat. I think it's a really nice connection that Sydney now has with Edinburgh. I don't feel "betrayed" with the connection thing, but also Taylor definitely wouldn't intend that... But people are definitely entitled to feel how they feel. But I thought I would share how I feel. Aaaand I do feel she might be recording it, especially after finding out HOW much people loved it 😍

Nish

like the new vibe.. allows yall to talk and share your thoughts, and also revisit any missed moments.

Laura Gallan

Yeah but also they live in a part of Australia that has Summer year round except for a few “Winter” weeks. Airflow is way more important. If you go south to Victoria a lot of homes have fireplaces or ducted heating. However, the insulation is pretty shit in newer homes because double bricking is $$$$ and uncommon with volume builders.

Janie

It’s funny that you said Outlander and Taylor are your two worlds colliding because I too love Taylor and Outlander… but also you guys. So it’s my 3 worlds colliding 😂

Gillian Vann

My Tears Ricochet is such an Outlander song! (and i can go anywhere just not home)

Connie Forrest

I feel the need to let everyone know that I LOVE it’s nice to have a friend! It’s probably in my top 5 on lover haha!

Lucy

Ah you saying Liverpool is next is crazy!! Finally going to be my show on N3😭 Also the next show is show 100👀

MarisoL

I recently found new love for Superstar and I'm almost 35 😜

charlychops

I was there and it was so incredible. I truely think that's why she did this mashup again, it was a special moment the first times round and she'd been saying all weekend how amazing the Edinburgh crowd was.

charlychops

I was there and it truely wasn't disappointing. Yes it's fun to hear new songs and combos, but in the moment it was amazing to hear these two incredible songs (and the duet with the crowd was unbelievable. I will only go to one show and it was still so special, even if it was done before. IDK it showed she loved the mashup so much she wanted to do it again for us! I was actually hoping for YOYOK because I love the song so much, it doesn't matter that other people have heard it, it still would have been special for me to hear it live.

Charlotte

Me too! I was there and I was so happy! It was so sad she didn’t sing more of it

Linnea H

please go back to watching live, the excitement is not the same for us or you:(

Sarah

For me it was a fantastic night (I went!) and I do think for me as some of my fave songs are haunted and exile it was perfect. But I do agree that maybe if they weren't faves then it might have been disappointing being able to predict them

Connie Forrest

Ahh that’s so great that you got to hear it live! Yeah a shame she didn’t play more of it!

Raegan

Or the tornadoes… and everyone wonders why our houses get destroyed so easily

Sol Gorlero

Omg I LOVE Superstar!!!! I hope she plays that soon 😭 as well as change and bye bye baby and honestly anything fearless she hasn’t played , it’s all superior

Hannah

watching after having been at the show and laughing at Bonnies "omg how is she gonnna beat her exile mashup", coulsn't wait for your reaction you two :D being in the crowd I was so sad how unappreciative people were of it's nice to have a friend and even of haunted :o for a moment I hoped she'd mash haunted up with would've could've should've cause it was so interrupted the other night and my brain always connects those two songs, was a bit heartbroken I missed out on wcs by two nights aaaargh. But of course the exile mashup was also supeeerior <3

Hannah

oh and I'm also torn between wanting you two to feel free to follow your thoughts while having the live excitement and doing the after reaction with pausing and rewinding. I actually really enjoyed that watching the surprise songs felt more in appreciative focus again during this little experiment, as the general chatting had taken over quite a lot recently while she was singing. Please do what feels best for you! Maybe you could also switch it up and watch some of the shows live, some after?Thanks so much for trying to find the best ecperience for us all!

Hannah

saaaame here and I was even there that night! Wish the song had had more time to shine despite a rather unappreciating crowd :o

Erin M

I love that she played “It’s nice to have a friend” and “Dorothea” mashup during Pride Month, because of the reference to “a friend of Dorothy” 💅🌈

Erin M

Ronan’s mom Maya went to the Eras Tour on Ronan’s birthday. If Taylor didn’t sing Ronan then I don’t think she will ever do Ronan

kayla

Omg I haven’t seen anyone mention the refathomings! Thank you! I actually really enjoy going back and watching the og reactions with the refathoms, and I don’t want that to end!

Aggi78

You don´t have heating at your house??? OMG, i would die too!

Aggi78

I love her. She says she loves to do something completely different every night and then proceeds to play a mashup she has done before :D

Sami Ali

I liked it better when you watched the live. It was your energy that was much more enthusiastic. With the recorded weekend sessions you seemed more relaxed and mellow. Maybe to mellow for me? Haha!! I like the super surprised reactions! . Maybe just reduced chatting during songs??? I like it also when you are anxious not to miss the live stream. It adds an extra layer of fun anticipation.

Hunter

I feel like she’ll sing Clara Bow in her last show idk why

Ariana B

I agree! I wonder if you (the girls) could screen record yourselves while you watch the live, and then go back and watch any bits you miss after??

Annabel

Love all your work but thing the live reactions have a little something more ✨ Maybe it’s because they have a little less of an ‘organised fashion’ and I think that’s when you guys shine the brightest!

Caroline

I like the energy live, but I do really like to hear more of what you have to say about each surprise song and I have a feeling you suppress your thoughts a bit when live to not miss stuff and then maybe forget to circle back. I think this post-show format would be more fun if you watched some higher quality videos of the surprise songs as well so you can really see her facial expressions and general vibe. I think that’s a perk of not watching live! :)

Caroline

Ooo that’s an interesting theory!!

Em

100th show next! Also I feel like you could watch live, screen record and then you can go back to it after you've watched for anything you missed or wanted to hear again? :)

Ivey B

Love both formats honestly but definitely think you should react live for the next one in case she something for the 100th show!!! 😄

msjackyx

Hi besties! I love watching live reactions but also feel bad because sometimes it might be too early and cold for you. So whatever works for you works for me! 🫶🏼💖✨

Alexandria Gangi

Prediction #1: manifesting an announcement for London 8/15 because she has a lil break after that run (and also because I’m going )

Lauren

I think she’ll extend the tour a few weekends and do 12-20 shows in LA/LV/PHNX right after the Super Bowl. It costs a lot of money to move the tour around, so I imagine she would want to make the leg worth it, but I also think there are personal matters she wants to attend to next year as well.

Alexandria Gangi

prediction #2: possibly do what she was originally going to do for lover fest and play a couple of shows in LA and then a couple in foxborough next year to wrap up eras tour!

Brent

you could react "almost live" with pauses if you have someone go live privately on youtube screen recording tess's stream for you

Kellie Mahoney

I think she hasn’t played Change because she wrote it for Scott B. and probably doesn’t relate to it the way she did when she wrote it.

Brittany DeLara

I think you should react to it live. You get to do lots of pausing and rewinding when you do the refathomings! So enjoy the live vibes babes!!!

emma

I’m at Liverpool night 1 tomorrow. I can’t actually wait

Joao Gabriel Moreira Teles

Guys, I’m having such a beautiful speak now moment, just wanted to share. After ttpd, aka her best album, was released I was struggling to come back and listen to the old ones, so glad I started with SN💜💜

Adél Kovács

Have lots of fuuun!!!🩷🩷🩷

Juliana Martinez

oh this is interesting! what exactly is that reference?

Hannah S

Okay hear me out though what if she mashed up Superstar and Clara Bow?! Ik they are kinda different but both have so much yearning and are about idolizing celebrities.

Dani

She played haunted on June 9th 2023 and 2024!!

Lauren

Thinking about how you thought Exile was originally from Calvin’s perspective, and it was played in Scotland…

karis

The only reason I don't think she's extending the tour was that she's slated to start directing her film in the first half of 2025.

marta k.

on youtube you can pause the livestream

Jess

I wonder when we’ll get castles crumbling with Hayley !

Savvy

This is such a good point!

Savvy

I like this idea!!

Savvy

Lol

Luke Fisher

Change music video was filmed in Indianapolis so maybe she’ll sing it there

Manon

What if she's saving Clara Bow as the last surprise song of the Eras tour

Katie Niad-Thames

My two cents…I watch you all to watch you REACT, not to watch the surprise songs. Do what feels comfortable and organic for you both as that’s how you got here and what got us all here.

Emma

I was at Edi N3 and only now just getting a chance to watch your guys reaction! And I just want to say how grateful I am that you guys helped me fathom Dorothea 🙏🏼 what a superior song and I would not have felt that way during that surprise song set if it wasn’t for your guys brains making me see how obviously brilliant it is ❤️ super wholesome vibes all round for that mash up✨

Ashleigh

I think It’s Nice To Have A Friend is about a friendship where there’s a one sided romantic interest. The other person is always trying to make subtle moves to push it to be more than a friendship “something gave you the nerve to touch my hand” and she responds “it’s nice to have a friend” almost as a passive aggressive way to put that person back in the friend zone. But then at the end of the song she says “call my bluff, call you babe” like she finally allows this friendship to become more? That’s my interpretation!

Kimi Dowling

I have always loved "It's Nice to Have a Friend" and I'm glad it got its *very small* moment to shine.

Sam

Playing catch up on all the secret songs reactions I've missed. I'm baking lemon bars right now and it honestly just felt like I had friends over while I was baking in my kitchen 💕

Gabi

The emotion in this performance is still chilling to the bone for me

Lison

this was my show!! So thankful to have been part of HAUNTED X EXILE ft the crowd!!! also I was at n1 and got to hear both ttds and dorothea how cute<3

Morgan D

Slowly making my way through the secret song reactions, and after Selena’s recent revelation that “Dorothea” is about her, it makes this first mashup make more sense to me. It’s all about their friendship!

victoria

I’m sure it has been fathomed by now… buttttttt now that we know Dorothea is about Selena Gomez, maybe that’s who it’s nice to have a friend is also about 🥹
