Here’s Taylor Swift’s 44 Songs Setlist For The Eras Tour

After nearly five years of anticipation, Taylor Swift embarked on her spectacular world tour so far, she has wasted no time in treating her audience to a mesmerizing journey through her musical evolution.

With four new albums and two re-recorded albums released since her last tour in 2018, Taylor has an incredible repertoire of over 200 songs to choose from.

In an exciting turn of events, Swift announced that Paramore‘s Hayley Williams and Fall Out Boy would be featured as guest artists on the previously unrecorded “Vault Tracks,” much to the delight of her fans.

Swift took to social media to express her enthusiasm, sharing, “I’m VERY excited to show you the back cover of Speak Now (my version) including the vault tracks and collaborations with @yelyahwilliams from @paramore and @falloutboy.” Given that Speak Now was a pivotal album in Swift’s career and focused heavily on her songwriting abilities, she decided to reach out to artists who had a profound impact on her as a lyricist during that time.

Their infectious hooks and energetic performances are bound to complement Swift‘s musical style, creating a collaboration that fans won’t want to miss.

While the bonus tracks remained unnamed during the pre-order phase, the veil has finally been lifted.
