LOADING ERROR LOADING Stevie Nicks received a touching tribute from Taylor Swift while attending the pop star’s Eras Tour concert in Dublin on Sunday. During the show, Swift took a moment to acknowledge Nicks, whom she referred to as a “friend,” before performing her song, “Clara Bow,” that name-checks the Fleetwood Mac singer. Advertisement “This one is a pretty easy one because I’ve never played this one live before,” Swift said .
“The reason I want to play this tonight is because a friend of mine is here who is watching the show and who has really been one of the reasons why I or any female artist gets to do what we get to do. She’s paved the way for us. And she’s mentored so many artists that you don’t even know she’s doing it.
” “She’s just become friends with so many female artists just to be a guiding hand. I can’t tell you how rare that is,” she continued. “She’s a hero of mine and also someone that I can tell her any secret, and she’d never tell anybody.
She’s really helped me through so much over the years. I’m talking about Stevie Nicks.” Swift then sang a mashup of “Clara Bow” and another of her songs, “The Lucky One.
” In “Clara Bow,” Swift sings about women in the music industry being compared to one another, singing, “You look like Stevie Nicks in ’75, the hair and lips.” The “Tortured Poets Department” artist also sang her song, “You’re on Your Own, Kid,” which Nicks had previously thank.
