During her Eras Tour in Scotland, Taylor Swift surprised her fans with a throwback surprise that left everyone in attendance with unforgettable memories. Swift expertly blended the hit song “Crazier” from the 2009 Hannah Montana film with the 2023 song “All of the Girls You Loved Before” on Saturday, June 8, during the second of her three performances at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh.

Swift, 34, acknowledged the 2009 song’s rarity while jokingly addressing the crowd. She began to perform the mashup on the piano and stated, “You get extra points if you know this next song at all because it is really, really old.” Swift exclaimed, “Oh my God, you’re so unbelievable,” when she reached the song’s bridge, sensing the crowd’s heightened excitement.
This unique occasion was a part of the surprise song phase of the Eras Tour, in which Taylor Swift plays two songs or mashups acoustically on the piano and guitar every night. “The Bolter” from the 2024 movie *The Tortured Poets Department* and “Getaway Car” from her 2017 album *Reputation* were the subjects of the second mashup of the evening.
Swift was warmly welcomed in Edinburgh upon his arrival. At Murrayfield Stadium, the local piper ensemble Reel Time Pipe Band sang her 2008 hit song “Love Story.” Their rendition of the song soon gained popularity on TikTok.
John Swinney, the First Minister of Scotland, expressed his joy by welcoming the “Cruel Summer” singer with a video greeting on X, the previous Twitter platform. He praised the “just fabulous” temporary renaming of Loch Tay to “Loch Tay Tay” in her honor.
“I sincerely hope she gets the opportunity to visit Loch Tay, or rather, Loch Tay Tay, as it is the most breathtaking region in Scotland,” Swinney remarked. “She’ll be very welcomed here, and I know the Swifties will be ecstatic to have her here in Scotland.”
Swift is making her second performance tour of Scotland with her Eras Tour. She made her first trip in June 2015, while she was on her 1989 World Tour and played to a packed house in Glasgow. Fans are excited to see what Swift will do next as her tour keeps showcasing her ability to combine nostalgia with unexpected new elements.
