🇩🇪 Eras Tour Roundup: Gelsenkirchen
"I just wanted you to know...
Dear Reader,
…I'm falling in love again”
Ummm, excuse me, but can we please talk about the surprise song mashups that Taylor Swift sang in Gelsenkircher?! Bringing back “invisible string” with “Superstar”, the adorableness of “Paper Rings” x “Stay Stay Stay”, the devastation of “it’s time to go” x “Better Man”. AND don’t even get me started on the line “I just wanted you to know, I’m falling in love again.” It’s going down in Swiftie history 😭
Not only all of that, but Gelsenkirchen also had some of the sweetest and most successful fan projects I’ve seen at a show yet. As always, links to the highlights, surprise songs and more from Gelsenkirchen are all below - so let’s get into it!
