Taylor Swift made a shocking announcement on stage in Melbourne on Sunday night, revealing a big change for her upcoming shows in Sydney.
The global megastar, 34, told the crowd she was reviewing her rule of never performing the same acoustic ‘Surprise Song’ more than once on her Eras Tour.
“I want to be as creative as possible with the acoustic set in the future and I don’t want to limit anything or say, ‘If I played this song, I can’t play it again,'” Swift began.
‘So from now on, I don’t want to take any paint colors out of the paint box or any tools out of the tool box.
‘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 good?’ she added.

Swift’s suggestion was met with huge applause from the roaring crowd.
Some of the acoustic surprise songs he previously performed on his latest tour include Daylight, Red and Teardrops on my Guitar.
It comes as fans around the world were left outraged by Australia’s perceived special treatment during the star’s Eras Tour.

International Swifties let loose on social media after Swift treated Melbourne fans to a very special surprise song in the form of a mashup of her tracks Getaway Car, The Other Side of the Door and August.
‘WHAT POSSESSED HER TO DO THIS?’ exclaimed one fan on Twitter.
Another shared a meme of a stone-faced NFL player during a ticker tape parade, along with the caption “The rest of the world watching Melbourne get the getaway car x August x the other side of the gate.”
Fans of Taylor’s first concert at the Melbourne Cricket Ground were also treated to the singer’s world-first announcement that the special edition of The Tortured Poets Department would feature a new song called The Bolter.
With three shows scheduled for Melbourne this weekend, thousands of fans who missed out on tickets gathered outside the MCG singing and dancing to Swift’s hits.
The international trend has earned the term ‘Taylor-gating’, despite warnings from the MCG urging fans to attend the venue only if they have tickets.
Swift mania will soon be coming to Sydney and the pop star will be performing four shows from Friday 23 February to Monday 26 February.
