Taylor Swift plays never-before-heard 'Tortured Poets' track in Amsterdam

On night two in Amsterdam, Taylor Swift played a never-before-heard live on the Eras Tour song from "The Tortured Poets Department."
"The acoustic section is one of my favorite parts of every show, because it is different every night," she said, wearing her free-flowing blue dress. "It is a challenge for me to come up with stuff that is brand-new and just try to make every single night different."
As she played a couple chords of the new track, the crowd at the Johan Cruijff Arena anticipated "imgonnagetyouback."
"You guys are singing so loudly," Swift said before diving into "Dress" from "Reputation." The crowd belted, "Say my name and everything just stops."
When Swift wrapped the guitar mashup, she sat down at her piano.

"I played that one because it mentions bikes and man do you love bikes in Amsterdam," she said of the "Tortured Poets" tune to the Amsterdam crowd. "It's a beautiful thing, you just see a bike rack with 3,000 bikes on it. It's one of the coolest thing about this place other than obviously you guys."
She then blended "You Are in Love" from "1989 (Taylor's Version)" with "Cowboy Like Me" from "Folkore." Swift has one more Eras Tour show in the Netherlands' capital before heading to Zürich, Switzerland.
Earlier in the night, Swift asked stadium workers three times to help fans during her 10-minute performance of "All Too Well."
As she was wrapping her "Red" era, Swift sang "I'd like to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it." Her eyes became fixated on the floor section to the right side of the stage (audience perspective). She continued singing her next two lines before stopping, saying, "They need some help over there where they are shinning their lights."
