Surprise! Taylor Swift performs 'Tortured Poets' track in Ireland for the first time

For the first time, Taylor Swift performed "The Albatross" live at the Eras Tour in a packed Dublin, Ireland stadium as a surprise song for fans.

"I wait for (the acoustic set) all night because this is the part of the show that keeps me on my toes," she said to the Saturday sold-out crowd before singing the "The Tortured Poets Department" track and mashing it with "Dancing With Our Hands Tied" from "Reputation."

In her flowy pink dress, Swift walked to the piano to blend "This Love" from "1989 (Taylor's Version)" with "Ours" from "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)."

The singer-songwriter has 44 more shows left on her mammoth Eras Tour including one more night in the Irish capital.
