Taken from her ‘The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology’ double album Taylor Swift has performed ‘The Albatross’ for the first time on her ongoing ‘Eras’ tour. Watch footage from her performance below. On the second of three nights in Dublin, Ireland at Aviva Stadium (June 29), Swift unveiled the track – taken from this year’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology’ – following a segment featuring songs from the album.
Swift took to her acoustic guitar for ‘The Albatross’, where her arrangement for the night saw it fused with ‘Dancing With Our Hands Tied’ as a special song mash-up. “The acoustic section — I absolutely wait for this all night because it is the point of the show that keeps me on my toes because I do something on guitar, I do something on piano,” she said before debuting the song live, per Rolling Stone . “And I do things completely different.
I’m always trying to think of something new to do, so I decided I’m going to do a song I’ve never performed live before.” This segment also saw Swift take on a piano rendition of ‘This Love’, taken from 2014’s ‘1989’ , fused with ‘Ours’, from 2011’s ‘Speak Now’. 🚨| Taylor Swift's FULL performance of a mashup of "The Albatross" and "Dancing With Our Hands Tied" at Night 2 of 'The Eras Tour' in Dublin, Ireland! #DublinTSTheErasTour pic.
