Taylor Swift demonstrated her unwavering commitment to her fans during her recent concert in Edinburgh, Scotland. On June 7, while performing at the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium, the Grammy-winning artist paused her song “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve” from her “Midnights” album to help a distressed fan in the audience.
In a video that quickly went viral on social media, Swift is seen requesting assistance for the fan while continuing to play her guitar. “We need help right in front of me, please, right in front of me,” she sang, her eyes fixed on the fan in need. “Just gonna keep playing until we notice where it is.”
Swift kept strumming her guitar, motioning towards the person who needed help. “I’m just gonna keep playing ’til somebody helps them, then I’m gonna keep singing the song,” she continued. “I don’t think anybody’s gotten to them yet, and they’re gonna. Because we’re not gonna keep singing, we’re just gonna keep talking about the people that need help in front of me. Just let me know when. I can do this all night.”
Once the fan received the necessary assistance, Swift received confirmation that everything was fine. “You’re good? Awesome!” she exclaimed before seamlessly resuming her performance of “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve.”
The following night, during her three-night run in Edinburgh, Swift performed “The Bolter” for the first time, a track from the Anthology edition of her latest album “The Tortured Poets Department.” She then transitioned to “Getaway Car” from her “Reputation” album.
Swift also added two more songs to her setlist: a mashup of “Crazier” from the 2009 “Hannah Montana: The Movie” and “All of the Girls You Loved Before,” a song initially intended for her 2019 album “Lover” but released last year. “You get extra points if you know this next song at all because it is really, really old,” Swift told the crowd at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium before transitioning from “All of the Girls You Loved Before” to “Crazier.”
