Taylor Swift Performs ‘Mary’s Song’ for First Time in 16 Years — with Sweet Lyrical Nod to Travis Kelce in Amsterdam
Lyrics from the 2006 song have taken on a new meaning since Swift began dating the NFL star, whose jersey number is 87
Taylor Swift finally sang a song that fans have waited years to hear live.
Swift, 34, surprised the sold-out crowd at Eras Tour show in Amsterdam on Saturday, July 6, by performing a mashup of “Mary’s Song,” “So High School” and “Everything Has Changed” during the secret songs segment.
At the end of the mashup, Swift sang the closing lyrics to 2006 classic “Mary’s Song,” which has taken on a new meaning since she started dating NFL star Travis Kelce: “I’ll by 87, you’ll be 89 / I’ll still look at you like the stars that shine / In the sky, oh my my my.”
Kelce, 34, (who was also born in 1989) was present for this special moment. He has become a fixture at Swift’s record-breaking stadium tour and even joined her onstage for a show in London last month.
Among the audience members who experienced the moment live were Kelce’s teammate Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany Mahomes. The couple stopped in Amsterdam during their European vacation, which also included Spain, London and Switzerland.
