Remember When Taylor Swift Went Full Emo Performing ‘Haunted’ in 2010? We Do

By Larisha Paul

Larisha Paul

Long before she traded in country music for unstoppable pop stardom, there was a moment in time when Taylor Swift decided to go full emo. And it really was just a moment, particularly the mid-point of NBC ‘s Thanksgiving Special: Taylor Swift – Speak Now in 2010, just one month after she released her third studio album Speak Now . Her nine-song setlist could have soundtracked a fairytale: There were dreamy renditions of “Sparks Fly” and “Enchanted,” but when she reached “Haunted,” Swift let the teenage angst that inspired it consume her completely.

This was nearly 13 years ago at this point, so most of the footage from the performance scattered across YouTube does in fact look like it was recorded using a microwave. But the emotion in Swift’s vocals, soaked in pure devastation at the loss of a love that was supposed to last forever, still cuts deep.

Ariana grande is gorgeously exposed on 'eternal sunshine', ziggy marley on critics' response to 'one love' biopic: 'they were looking for a different story', ariana grande releases 'eternal sunshine,' first album in over 3 years.

And it wasn’t only emo in its sound. The performance was filmed at the Psycho House on the Universal Studios Hollywood backlot. 2010 marked the 50th anniversary of Alfred Hitchcock’s horror thriller Psycho , so Swift thought it would be the perfect location to bring her own romantic nightmare to life.

With the arrival of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) , out July 7 as the third in her series of re-recordings, Swift is unleashing some more skeletons from her closet, or in this case her vault of previously unreleased songs from that album era. The records will feature appearances from emo royalty Fall Out Boy and Paramore’s Hayley Williams on “Electric Touch” and “Castles Crumbling,” respectively.

Table of contents, background and production.

«‘Haunted’ is about the moment that you realize the person you’re in love with is drifting and fading fast. And you don’t know what to do, but in that period of time, in that phase of love, where it’s fading out, time moves so slowly. Everything hinges on what that last text message said, and you’re realizing that he’s kind of falling out of love. That’s a really heartbreaking and tragic thing to go through because the whole time you’re trying to tell yourself it’s not happening. I went through this, and I ended up waking up in the middle of the night writing this song about it.» Taylor Swift

Live Performances

Commercial performance, taylor's version.

[Verse 1] You and I walk a fragile line I have known it all this time But I never thought I’d live to see it break It’s getting dark and it’s all so quiet and I can’t trust anything now And it’s coming over you like it’s all a big mistake

[Pre-chorus 1] Oh, holding my breath Won’t lose you again Something’s made your eyes go cold

[Chorus] Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Something’s gone terribly wrong You’re all I wanted Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Can’t breathe whenever you’re gone Can’t turn back now I’m haunted

[Verse 2] Stood there and watched you walk away from everything we had But I still mean every word I said to you He will try to take away my pain and he just might make me smile But the whole time I’m wishing he was you instead

[Pre-chorus 2] Oh, holding my breath Won’t see you again Something keeps me holding on to nothing

[Bridge] I know, I know I just know You’re not gone You can’t be gone No

[Chorus Variation] Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Something’s gone terribly wrong Won’t finish what you started Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Can’t breathe whenever you’re gone I can’t go back I’m haunted (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

[Outro] You and I walk a fragile line I have known it all this time Never thought I’d see it break Never thought I’d see it

Taylor Swift Continues to Switch Up Acoustic Set, Plays Another Double Mash-Up at 3rd Sydney Concert

Taylor Swift Continues to Switch Up Acoustic Set, Plays Another Double Mash-Up at 3rd Sydney Concert

Taylor Swift likes to keep Us on our toes during her “surprise song” section, which she’s succeeding at thanks to her continued mash-ups.

During her Sunday, February 25, concert in Sydney, Swift, 34, performed two mash-ups. She first combined “Is It Over Now,” a 1989 (Taylor’s Version) vault track, with “I Wish You Would,” another song from 1989 , which she played on her acoustic guitar.

Swift, dressed in a flowy yellow gown, then moved over to her piano for her next mash-up . She performed a rendition of Speak Now ’s “Haunted” and Folklore ’s “Exile.” (While “Exile” was initially recorded as a duet with Bon Iver, Swift sang solo on Sunday.)

Swift is in the middle of a four-show run at Sydney’s Accor Stadium, in which she has performed mash-ups at every concert.

Her first gig on Friday, February 23, featured a rendition of “White Horse” and “Coney Island,” which she sang with Eras opener Sabrina Carpenter . She picked the Fearless -era song because it was “very important” to Carpenter, 24, when she was growing up.

The next night, on Saturday, February 24, Swift did her first double mash-up . The 14-time Grammy winner belted a hybrid of “Should’ve Said No” and “You’re Not Sorry,” as well as “Peace” and “New Year’s Day.”

Swift has been on tour since March 2023, rotating two songs in the acoustic section of her setlist. She changes what tracks she’ll play based on each crowd.

“I want to be as creative as possible with the acoustic set moving forward and I don’t want to limit anything or say, ‘Oh, if I played this song, I can’t play it again,’” Swift said during her February 18 concert in Melbourne. “So, from now on, I don’t want to take any paint colors out of the paintbox [or] tools out of the toolbox.”

She added, “I want to be able to play songs more than once if I feel like it and I want to be able to make changes to songs. Does that sound OK?”

During her 2023 shows across the United States, Swift made it clear that she did not intend to repeat songs unless she flubbed the lyrics. However, she made a caveat for Midnights ballads, which came out in 2022, so she could keep adding them to the setlist.

Swift then decided to reset the catalog for her 2024 shows, meaning that all options were once again on the table when she brought The Eras Tour overseas.

How Nicole + Felicia created 9 celebrity looks, from Taylor Swift's Eras Tour ball gowns to Jennifer Lopez's Golden Globes dress

  • Sisters Nicole and Felicia Chang are the designers behind many celebrity looks in recent years.
  • They created ball gowns for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour and Jennifer Lopez's Golden Globes dress.
  • Speaking with Business Insider, they shared how they came up with each stunning outfit.

Insider Today

Designers Nicole and Felicia Chang are taking over the fashion industry, one celebrity outfit at a time.

The creative sister duo got started in 2015, founding their namesake company in Taiwan. Since then, Nicole + Felicia has become a go-to brand for celebrities around the world — Taylor Swift and Jennifer Lopez included.

The designers have also made strides in the wedding world, with a Nicole + Felicia collection at Kleinfeld that brides covet.

Speaking with Business Insider, Nicole Chang explained how the brand has worked with Hollywood, the impact of the bridal industry on its designs, and the inspirations behind nine of Nicole + Felicia's most stunning looks.

Nicole + Felicia designs are all over red carpets, magazines, and even the Eras Tour.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

Nicole Chang told Business Insider that she and her team approach each design differently when working with celebrities.

"We have cases where we get notified by stylists that they're interested in certain looks or that they want to create a bespoke look from an existing collection," she said. "Or we can start from scratch."

Jennifer Lopez, for example, wore a custom version of a preexisting Nicole + Felicia design at the 2024 Golden Globes.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

The strapless gown with a rose-shaped shawl was originally designed in ivory for the Nicole + Felicia F/W 2024 bridal collection . But for the Golden Globes , Lopez's team requested the dress in a custom shade.

Nicole + Felicia presented a few options, Chang told BI, and Lopez's stylist, Rob Zangardi, chose a pale pink.

"They only gave us a week, I think, and the whole team was working on the gown," she added.

Still, Chang said it was a surprise when Lopez stepped onto the carpet wearing the dress because celebrities rarely guarantee they'll wear a design. In most cases, she pointed out, stars don't get to see or try on designer pieces until the day of events.

But in this case, Lopez loved the look — possibly because it matched the pink florals in her "Can't Get Enough" music video.

"It was a coincidence," Chang said. "We later found out that she recently released her new single, and her whole theme was roses and flowers."

Florals were also a big part of Janelle Monáe's ensemble at the 2024 pre-Grammy Gala.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

Though the two-piece set was custom-made for Monáe, Chang said it was inspired by the Nicole + Felicia F/W 2024 evening collection .

"We were going through fittings internally — I was taking pictures of models and seeing how the fitting went — and her stylist just happened to reach out and ask if we had any styles that would fit her," Chang said of working with Monáe's team.

So, while looking at a gown from the collection — a black, strapless piece with two gold roses across the chest — Chang said she knew a custom version of it would suit the musician.

Nicole + Felicia created a black bralette adorned with the brand's signature florals, a high-waisted skirt, and a rose-covered choker that extended down Monáe's back.

"I think that's what made the whole gown really special," Chang said of the latter piece.

And while floral embellishments are usually crafted from soft fabrics in pastel shades, Nicole + Felicia aimed to do something different.

"We really wanted to make something that represents her young and fun energy and her power," Chang said. "It took about 48 hours to create two flowers. They're actually metal pieces created by hand in our studio."

"We can make this floral idea grow from just being soft and feminine to something strong," she added.

Swifties have admired Nicole + Felicia designs for months as Taylor Swift wears them on the Eras Tour.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

Though she rotates her costumes each night of the tour, Swift has at least three Nicole + Felicia designs in her arsenal for the "Speak Now" portion of the show.

Chang told BI her team first designed a sparkling purple ball gown with a sleeveless top and three-tiered skirt from 300 yards of fabric after being approached by Swift's stylist, Joseph Cassell.

But while they saw a preview of the stage and knew the dress was being created for the Eras Tour , that's about all the information Nicole + Felicia received.

"We didn't know when or where she was going to wear it," Chang said.

While creating the purple "Speak Now" dress, Swift's team requested another design from Nicole + Felicia.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

Amy Chen, the public relations manager for Nicole + Felicia, told BI that the brand simultaneously worked on the purple dress and a sleeveless tan ball gown covered in metallic sparkles.

"We thought they just wanted options," Chen said. "We didn't know if she would consider both, and we had no idea of the significance of the colors or anything. They kept everything very secretive and very hush hush."

"The whole process — from when we initially got in touch with the stylist, started sketching, started doing samples and showing him treatments and beading — was probably three to four months from start to finish," she added.

The designers were thrilled to create two Eras Tour looks. Then they made a third.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

"We got a message from her stylist again, and he said that he would like to create another look — and he was very specific that it needed to be blue," Chang said.

"A very specific blue," Chen added with a laugh. "And we had no idea of the significance."

That significance, of course, is that sky blue is the color most often associated with Swift's "1989" era . So, during a Los Angeles stop of the Eras Tour, Swift wore six never-before-seen blue outfits onstage before announcing "1989 (Taylor's Version)."

One of those outfits was a blue halter gown covered in sparkling beads. It was designed by Nicole + Felicia and sent to Swift "just two or three weeks before she wore it," Chang said.

"My favorite would be the blue one because I know how much work went into it," she said. "The whole gown is fully beaded. It's not a fabric; it's literally stitch by stitch."

Nicole + Felicia even had a hand in embellishing some of Swift's onstage equipment.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

"For every gown that we sent them, they would request a swatch of the fabric that we use for the gown," Chang said.

That fabric was then used to create guitar straps, cover the battery packs Swift wore on her clothes, and match microphone casings to her outfits.

Rewinding to 2022, the designers were responsible for one of the best red-carpet looks at the Cannes Film Festival.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

All eyes turned to German influencer Leonie Hanne that year as she arrived wearing a hot-pink gown made from tulle.

The dress had giant puff sleeves, a cutout bodice, a tutu-style miniskirt, and a long train that flowed behind her.

"Leonie, I would say, she's always very last-minute," Chang said with a laugh. "She always has so many ideas and will pop out and say, 'Hey guys, I'm going to Cannes in two weeks. Could you create a look?' And we always have so much fun working with her."

After wearing a tulle Nicole + Felicia look in 2021, the designer said Hanne wanted to go bigger the following year.

"She wanted a pop of color," Chang said. "I remember we were choosing from a few really bright pink colors, and she wanted to have a dramatic shoulder. So we created that for her as well."

Celebrities are just as drawn to Nicole + Felicia's bridal gowns as they are custom looks.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

For a 2023 magazine event in Saudi Arabia, supermodel Naomi Campbell wore a black wedding dress designed by Nicole + Felicia for the brand's S/S 2023 bridal collection .

Though the strapless dress was originally paired with a gold cape, Campbell wore it with a sheer one covered in sparkles.

"Starting in 2023, we went in a really modern and fun direction for bridal and designed for brides looking for something special," Chang said. "And after Jennifer Lopez requested one of our bridal looks to be made into an evening look, I feel like they're going in the same direction. Our bridal and evening looks have a more similar design identity now."

That said, it's Nicole + Felicia's ability to merge Hollywood glamour, bridal fashion, and unique fabrics that keeps the brand on top.

taylor swift haunted speak now tour

Also in 2023, actor Maitreyi Ramakrishnan wore a golden ball gown created for the S/S 2023 bridal collection at the "Never Have I Ever" premiere.

Chang said the gown was the ultimate example of the brand's ability to mix bridal with red-carpet fashion .

"We always want to experiment in different areas of fabrication," Chang said. "We look for new vendors and suppliers, and we are always looking for new things to add to our bridal collection. It's not always just lace and tulle. There has to also be something new that attracts people to look at your collection."

Eras Tour in Tokyo: Tracking Taylor Swift's secret songs as she plays Japan

TOKYO — All's fair in love and secret songs, so Taylor Swift started her acoustic set with a blank space in 2024.

For her final night in the Dome, Taylor Swift performed “Come In With The Rain” from “Fearless (Taylor’s Version)” on guitar “You’re On You’re Own, Kid” on piano. It was her first time performing "Come In With The Rain" on the Eras Tour.

Throwing it back on night three

Start the day smarter. Get all the news you need in your inbox each morning.

"I was thinking I would do some kind of throwback things tonight," Swift said on her third night in Tokyo. "Neither one of these songs I've ever played before on tour so wish me luck."

Swift performed "Superman" from "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" on the guitar and "The Outside" on the piano from her first album.

Keep your 'eyes open' night two

On the second night in Tokyo, Swift strummed "Eyes Open" on the guitar from the Hunger Games soundtrack.

"I've selected two brand-new songs that I've never performed," she said before quickly adding they are not from her 11th album, "The Tortured Poets Department" coming out April 19.

Her second surprise song on the piano was "Electric Touch" from "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)."

'Dear Reader,' welcome to Tokyo

For night one, Swift performed "Dear Reader" from "Midnights" on the guitar and "Holy Ground" from "Red (Taylor's Version)" on the piano. The first song she's never performed live on the tour and the other she played in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on May 27.

"I decided that in 2024, when we go back on tour, I'm just gonna open back up all the songs for surprise songs,” Swift said during her final 2023 performance in Sao Paulo, Brazil . “For one year, we've really gotten through a lot of songs, so I'm just gonna make all the songs fair game when we go back on tour."

Swift will perform at the Tokyo Dome through Saturday. Her next tour dates are in Melbourne, Australia, but it's likely she will make a pit stop at the Super Bowl on Sunday to cheer on her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
