01x06 - Remember This Moment

Post by bunniefuu »

It's the music tour that changed the industry.

♪hanged entire economies, at least temporarily.

And if you ask some Super Swifties, may have even changed some lives.

The Eras Tour has danced through sold-out stadiums

in fifty cities on five continents.

The highest grossing tour of all time, stretching six hundred and thirty-three days.

And rocketing Swift from megastar to cultural phenomenon.

It is the end of an era, if you can believe it.

Taylor Swift will end her record-shattering Eras Tour this weekend.

We are just one day away

from Taylor Swift kicking off her final Eras Tour shows.

Are you ready for it?

- Got it. You're welcome.
- Thank you.

Three left.

That's it.

I don't know how I'm gonna feel,

but I also really don't know

how other people are gonna feel.

But they're gonna need me to respond

in a way that supports however it is that they feel

at any given moment.

So I'm just sort of...

bracing myself for...

Austin: How do you feel?

I feel so proud, but so ready.

Like, so ready for this.

This is the perfect ending.

This show created a bonding experience for, like, seventy thousand people, all at once.

And I don't know how that happened.

There are times where you make something so cool,

and you know it's cool and you're really proud of it,

but you're flying into the wind,

and you're just always up against some friction.

Then there's times, these very rare instances

where you make something and the wind is at your back.

Somehow, culture and timing

and whatever mood there is out in the world

about you that you can't control, all lines up for this to go well.

"So many unbelievable memories on this tour,

but my favourite one is seeing you in concert for the first time.

Being memorized, mesmerized and swept off my feet

by a woman who doesn't even know me."

"I selfishly say thank you for creating this legendary tour

and to Robert for making you stop through Kansas City, Missouri.

That night, too, in KC, was the beginning of me meeting the love of my life."

Oh, my God.

So much for no emotions on the last three shows, huh?

Less than cozy.

- It honestly, it looks the same.
- But guess what?

It looks th... Three more.

- Three more, dude.
- Three more.

That's it. Your hair looks phenomenal.

- Why, thank you, ma'am.
- Yeah, really love it.

I think I...

I just feel like I'm just preparing for tears

in a way that's making me feel confused.

- I totally agree.
- Do you know what I mean?

Like, I'm prepared for happy tears and gratitude.

But I'm like, "This is not supposed to bring anyone sadness."

No.

Even though it's never gonna happen again, like th...

So, I guess it is sad.

I'm getting weird jitters.

They're weird. They're strange.

I know.

Because there's an end in sight.

Change, it kinda messes with people.

This is one that you requested, this mash up.

Tonight?

Yeah, I think so.

Oh. Now I'm gonna cry again.

That's ridiculous.

Oh, my God.

- That was amazing.
- Thanks, Dad.

Holy mackerel.

- All right.
- All right.

Oh, my God. We're here.

One word to describe the Eras Tour, "magical."

I might not have one, but maybe a few.

It would be, "remarkable" and... "phenomenal."

It's just joyous.

It's just like a celebration of all that's happy in the world.

This is an unprecedented big.

I don't k... You know, indescribable.

Everything that we've experienced, it'll live forever.

In my mind, in my heart, in my physical body.

It... forever.

What I'm gonna miss most...

Um...

Family.

The family dynamic

is, like genuinely, like something I've never...

Um... Oh, no.

I've completely changed and grown

just being around so many positive examples.

I feel like I have lifelong connections with everyone.

I didn't expect to get close with this many people.

There's not a person that you won't get along with,

and there's not a person that you can't be alone with

and still have the best time.

I have the most supportive team I could ever have.

You can't really ask for much more.

This was an amazing group of dancers, and the chemistry with the band.

And we were all very aware of the magic that this tour was able to capture.

I'm gonna miss going on stage every night

with this band that I've known for fifteen years.

Being able to be up there with this group of people,

spreading all this joy and positivity.

It is a joy fest, and I'm here for it.

We're so proud to be here,

to be working with Taylor, to be working with each other.

We are in this together.

That's what she said to us on that first day,

just shaking hands and saying, "Hi, I'm Taylor."

She is, like, a legend.

This tour, this boss, has, like, made us feel seen,

worthy, and, like, treated with the utmost respect.

♪ It's nice to have a friend ♪

No way! Stop.

- Yeah.
- One of my main pictures.

- I look amazing.
- Yeah.

I remember my first show...

and Taylor said to me,

"Jan, you're gonna be the first one who's gonna open. Just be ready for that."

I'm waiting, and all you can see, it's the doors going up...

I'm, like, still confident walking forward.

And when I open...

And people were screaming and all you can see is just lights.

It's like...

I can't even describe it.

I know that I was holding my tears the first time.

I never felt this energy before,

and it's weird to say, and I know that after every job,

when you're done, you're saying, "Oh, that was the one, that was the one."

But I think this one is the one.

Okay.

You guys, this is our last first show of the weekend.

- For me, this is our victory lap.
- Yeah.

We did the hard sh*t, the scary things, the ups, the downs. We did all that.

I couldn't be happier to get to play this last first night with you.

Probably the happiest I've been on a first night.

- Aww.
- Yeah, yeah.

'Cause it's the last one.

Oh, God. Here we go.

One, first thing, deep breath, everybody,

'cause I know we're all feeling a little buzzy. So in.

And out.

Okay.

I was, you know, thinking about change, and we have a big one coming up,

which is the end of this.

But when I think about what change means, that's what eras are.

Um, eras are evolutions...

...and they are meant to come to an end in some ways.

But this will always have been our Eras era.

I'm just so proud of you guys, and I can't believe that we've done it.

It's just so amazing. I love you guys.

Let's f*cking do it!

Okay, so let's go out there and...

f*ck sh*t up! f*ck it up!

Up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up!

This tour will live on as probably the pinnacle,

foremost, important thing that I've done.

I get very depressed about

pop culture's obsession with youth culture,

and we designate extremely young people

to be the ones who have to tell us where culture is going.

And then the idea that an artist had, in my case, the privilege of developing

to the point where you're in your thirties and you do know yourself a bit more

and then you were able to make the thing that they'll know you for.

There's something very special about that.

Show day. Show day.

♪ This was a seismic, momentous period of time in my life, ♪

and in the lives of the performers and the crew members

and anyone who this tour touched.

- We've arrived. Oh, it's official.
- All right.

And it's never gonna happen again this way.

Isn't she the best?

Love you guys.

I think for most of us,

this is bigger than we ever thought it would be.

When I went through treatment and I was away from it,

I would play the show all the time.

I would watch it on TV and I'd sing along

and remember the good feels that I felt when I was there.

It's more than just a job.

It's more than just a show.

It's what we are, and just the joy and the magic that happens in that space,

it's just magical.

I think it's just such a beautiful blessing

that we all get to do, and...

Yeah, I never want it to end.

I know it's gross to hug

- No, it's good. I love you.

- Gonna be so fun.
- I love you.

The light and the joy that she has provided...

There's just been nothing like this cultural phenomenon in a tour ever.

It's, like, changed people's lives.

The people who came to these shows

wanted to have a good experience

and wanted others to have a good experience, too.

There's something very pure about that.

Those fans,

seeing them get dressed the way that they do,

seeing them make the effort

to commune with each other, to help each other.

It is that sense of truly connecting with each other.

I think that's the thing that compelled people

to make such a big deal out of the Eras Tour.

Yes, it's a pretty freaking cool show.

But you know what else is really cool about it?

Everybody who comes to it.

Hearing the stories about the positivity rush that people felt.

Talking about how they blacked out during the show.

And they just got this euphoric rush of joy that felt chemical.

I specifically created this tour on a molecular level

to make people feel that sense of escape.

But to have it land like that, you're like, "Yes!"

I perhaps spend more time looking at the audience

than I do looking at the show.

It's really fulfilling, and her outreach

and the fan base and community that she's grown,

what more could you ask for in a career?

Every person in that audience, hopefully, is being shaped positively in some way

by something that they see or something that they hear

or something that they feel during that three and a half hours.

The "22" moment stems from a hat that I wore on the Red Tour.

So I wanted to really bring back that moment of,

just kinda like, have a moment with a fan

where I, actually like, get close with them.

What's so interesting about that moment every night

is I never know what kid I'm gonna meet.

I've got people in the audience

scouring the crowd for the first couple of Eras,

trying to find a kid who knows every single word to the songs

and having the time of their life at this show.

Because that kid basically is like a representative

of every kid in that crowd that night.

It could be, like, a little kid that gets really shy

when all of a sudden they're seeing 60,000 people for the first time.

Or it could be, there are kids that just, like, bloom under the bright lights,

and they're just like, "Oh, my God, I'm a pop star now."

♪ It feels like one of those nights ♪

♪ You look like bad news ♪

♪ I gotta have you ♪

It's always so wild to be, like, in this moment with this person

that I've never met before, this little kid.

And everything's going on around us, and somehow we're able to just, like,

have this moment be completely between us.

We're just kind of, like, meeting each other,

and everyone else kind of disappears for a second.

It just reminds me why I do it.

The hat girl.

- The kid that got the hat...
- Okay.

really, like, shook my reality.

Like, I came up to her, I hug her, and she goes,

"Is this real life?"

And she really was wondering.

And I was, like...

And it just made me be, like, "Actually, I don't know."

Do you know what I mean?

♪ And here we are, the last day of the tour. ♪

The Eras Tour is coming to an end today.

Let's see how many of you are going. Show of hands.

Oh, wow!

Okay.

- I hope you guys have an amazing time.
- Aw.

If you're friends with a Swiftie, please call them and check on them

and make sure they're okay today.

Because today is the last day of the Eras Tour, and we are in mourning.

I'm not ready. I'm not ready!

I can't believe the end is here.

Get ready with me for the last Eras Tour ever!

- Oh, my God, I cannot believe it.

And so I'm interested in regaining some of that,

'cause I know I used to have hobbies

and, like, a personality outside of this tour.

I can't remember what they were. I'll let you know.

we were getting to the end of it.

♪ Taylor's impact is limitless. ♪

A lot of this I would have never imagined for myself.

She has celebrated us in our moments in such big ways

that her fan base knows us by name.

That does not happen for dancers.

Because you did that, the type of people that are showing up

are of different sizes, are of different ages,

are of different races, are of different background experiences,

and can come to this show for three and a half hours

and feel the same.

You leave it different.

You leave it better. You leave it warmer.

You leave it more giving, more kind, more tolerant.

That is the stuff of legend.

So, our...

- Honey? Honey?
- Three nights at BC Place...

- and the last time...
- Break a leg. I love you.

Yeah.

- Is it time?
- Yeah. It's time.

- Mom? Mom.

- Did I do the thing?
- No.

- See ya.
- See ya.

- One last time.
- One last time.

No!

- Holy sh*t. Holy sh*t. Okay.
- Here we go.

All right. Okay, you guys.

I wanna say that I'm constantly reminded of one of my favourite quotes

which is that "Everyone's jealous of what you've got.

"No one is jealous of what you had to do to get it."

Everyone likes to talk about phenomenons like "The Eras Tour"

almost as if it was pieces falling into place in some sort of destined,

accidental confluence of events that just happened, right?

When I'm thinking about the people that are in this circle,

I don't think about it as pieces that fell into place.

I think of each of you as, like, tectonic plates on the earth.

And "The Eras Tour" wasn't when all the pieces fell into place.

That was just when every single one of us who had done so much work

to where this tour was just when we all clicked together.

We have traveled the entire world.

We've gone through America twice.

We have set every attendance record

- in every huge stadium.
- Wow.

We have broken every single record you can break with this tour.

The only thing left is to close the book.

- For one last time.
- Yeah.

Taylor, we love you!

I love you guys so much. All right.

- Let's go out there and f*ck sh*t up!
- f*ck sh*t up!

- f*ck it up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up!
- f*ck it up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up! Up!
