On the morning of August 21 (Vietnam time), Taylor Swift officially released the MV I Can Do It With A Broken Heart with images taken entirely from behind the scenes of The Eras Tour. The images further emphasize the song’s content: how Taylor Swift resiliently overcame her broken relationship with Joe Alwyn, still happy and explosive when performing on the stage of The Eras Tour – the most successful tour in music history.
According to Taylor Swift’s “tradition”, when she releases a music video with images from a tour, this also means that the “era” of that album has ended, there will be no more music videos or promotional activities. Before that, we had New Romantics. Sparks Fly, Red, Fearless,… were also used to end a similar “era”.
Taylor Swift – I Can Do It With A Broken Heart
The most notable scene in the MV is definitely the image of Taylor Swift crawling into a rather narrow cleaning tool box. After that, the box is closed, the bodyguards move the box from the stadium basement to the stage, where Taylor Swift is ready to “burn” for tens of thousands of spectators every night.
This is also the first time Taylor Swift herself has confirmed a famous “legend” of The Eras Tour: the way she secretly moves onto the stage without anyone noticing.
Previously, in the first days of The Eras Tour, many spectators in the backstage area recorded a seemingly insignificant detail: cleaning staff were pushing a black box, containing a bunch of brooms, mops, buckets, etc. At first glance, anyone would just think it was a box containing cleaning supplies for the stage cleaning staff.
But the shocking thing was, after the toilet cubicle was placed deep backstage, two cleaning staff opened the cubicle door and… Taylor Swift actually walked out, as if by magic. What a clever “camouflage”.
Viewers were both shocked by Taylor Swift’s “deception” but also heartbroken. Many fans felt sorry for Taylor Swift because to ensure security and keep the secret until the last minute, she did not hesitate to rush into the narrow closet.
However, gradually the image of the box containing Taylor Swift’s “transportation” toiletries became famous, eagerly awaited by the audience. Because this means: Taylor Swift really went on stage, preparing to open the 3 and a half hour long show.
Many inside sources also said that Taylor Swift often has to move from locations to cars by hiding in a large suitcase. This is her way of keeping her appearance always private, avoiding creating crowds of followers because after all, her position is currently one of the biggest stars in the world today. Information about Taylor Swift’s way of moving was confirmed by Zayn Malik in an interview with British Vogue in 2018.
