When Taylor Swift performed “Daylight” at her concert in Minneapolis on Saturday, a fan burst into tears.
Swift has established an internet (and live) craze by singing two surprise songs on each night of her Eras Tour.
The request was made by a fan on Twitter early Saturday morning, before the show. Her tweet has been viewed 1.5 million times.
“hi @taylorswift13 its been 5 years today since my brother died,” she tweeted. “I have tickets to see you tonight in A13, row 14. it would mean EVERYTHING to me if you could please sing daylight as one of the surprise songs. i love you soo much and youre going to make this hard day better.”

The woman tweeted shortly after the concert that she couldn’t believe what had transpired.
“How I made it out alive tonight is honestly unknown to me,” she wrote on Twitter.

The woman posted a response video of Swift starting to sing the song, which is on Swift’s 2019 album “Lover.” The fan said Swift made the “hard day” amazing, and she knew her brother was there in spirit with her.
Swift also performed “Dear John,” a song from her 2010 album “Speak Now.” It was the first time she’d played the song, written for her ex John Mayer, live in 11 years.
“My age is 33.” I don’t care about anything that happened to me when I was 19,” she remarked on the show. “I’m not putting out this album so you can go on the internet and defend me against someone you think I wrote a song about 14 million years ago.”
