With Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour coming up, I’ve been thinking a lot about what songs I would like to hear her perform. Honestly, Taylor could get on the stage and burp the alphabet for two hours straight and I would be in the stands dancing while crying. However, I came up with a list of 13 songs I would love to hear:

  1. Lavender Haze
    Imagine this: all the lights are off and in the silence, you hear “meet me at midnight.” The crowd goes berserk and Taylor rises from below the stage. I would immediately begin sobbing to be quite honest.
  2. Red
    Taylor Swift’s Red Tour was my sister and I’s first concert, so it would be really special to hear “Red” again at this concert with her.
  3. Haunted
    I miss the days of the “Speak Now” era when Taylor was extremely theatrical. I want the whole experience, especially seeing her banging on a bell that’s two times bigger than her.
  4. You Belong With Me
    This song is a staple of my childhood, and honestly of my adult life too. It truly is an iconic song that has a huge nostalgia factor.
  5. Dress
    I want to hear this solely to experience everyone yelling “Taylor!” during the brief pause after the line “Say my name and everything just stops.”
  6. Anti-Hero
    I desperately need to experience the crowd yelling “Taylor you’ll be fine!” during the pre-chorus.
  7. Karma
    It’s such a fun song to dance to.
  8. Should’ve Said No
    I vividly remember screaming this song at 6 years old with the pain of a divorcee that had been cheated on. Honestly, I think that version of myself needs to be let out again, even if it’s just for one night.
  9. Enchanted
    Again, I miss the theatrics of the “Speak Now” era.
  10. New Year’s Day
    It’s simply a great song.
  11. Look What You Made Me Do
    “Reputation” Taylor was truly iconic and I miss her. Bring back the snakeskin please.
  12. Cruel Summer
    We didn’t get a full “Lover” era and I need a taste of what we missed.
  13. Long Live
    If Taylor ends the concert with “Long Live,” I will certainly leave Lincoln Financial Field with mascara running down my face.
