Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.Swift, 33, performed at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa for three nights over the weekend — and those at home got a surprise show as well.During her “Reputation”-era set of tour, Swift sings her song “Don’t Blame Me,” and huge beams shoot up into the air and brighten up the sky with a spectacular light show.From inside the stadium, the lights look like large beams surrounding Swift — but from the outside, it looks like a mysterious moving rectangle in the middle of the sky.Spooked spectators at home documented what they were sure was a UFO, posting videos of the “aliens” on — where else? — TikTok.One Tampa resident posted a video of the illuminated sky, screaming and cursing as she and her family watch what they think is UFO moving in the sky.When one reasonable person in the background suggests that it might just be lights from Swift’s Eras Tour, the woman filming yells, “That is NOT Taylor Swift.”She even quipped that “they’re coming for you.”Swifties in the comments found the now-viral video quite hilarious, with one joking, “Taylor opening the gates of heaven when she was performing Don’t Blame Me.”“it’s literally lights from the stadium i’m so concerned for peoples critical thinking skills,” another commented.“As a Taylor swift fan, this is extremely funny,” someone laughed.sorry girl, its not a UFO the swifties were just at church

“Rescued,” the band’s first song since the death of beloved drummer Taylor Hawkins in March 2022.And you can feel the ghost of Hawkins in the haunting chorus: “We’re all free to some degree/To dance under the lights/I’m just waiting to be rescued/Bring me back to life.”Back in ferocious form, you can hear the revived Foos emerging from their mourning after Hawkins died at 50 from a suspected overdose while the group was on tour in South America.“It came in a flash/It came out of nowhere/It happened so fast/And then it was over,” sings frontman Dave Grohl, seemingly referencing Hawkins’ passing at the beginning of the song.Later, Grohl hints at his deep grief: “I fell in a trap/My heart’s getting colder.” Then the singer repeats a plea to “rescue me tonight,” as if he wishes he could have saved Hawkins.“Rescued” dropped Wednesday as the Foo Fighters announced “But Here We Are,” their 11th studio album, due June 2.It’s the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band’s follow-up to 2021’s “Medicine at Midnight,” which arrived just four months before Hawkins’ death.A press release describes “But Here We Are” as “a brutally honest and emotionally raw response to everything Foo Fighters endured over the last year” and “a testament to the healing powers of music.”The release continues, “ ‘But Here We Are’ is the sound of brothers finding refuge in the music that brought them together in the first place 28 years ago, a process that was as therapeutic as it was about a continuation of life.”

John Mayer has reflected upon his song ‘Paper Doll’, which is believed to have been written about Taylor Swift.The lyrics of the decade-old song were brought into the spotlight again after Mayer performed the track during a concert in Sacramento, California, on Saturday (April 8) — the same day that rumours emerged that Taylor Swift called it quits with boyfriend of six years, Joe Alwyn.When the track was first released, some fans criticised the singer and guitarist for his lyrics and speculated that they were written about Swift after the two split. However, Mayer has never stated that the song was aimed at the ‘Anti-Hero’ singer.In clips recorded at last week’s gig, Mayer explains that the “sarcastic” and “bitchy” lyrics in the song were misunderstood by fans, and that the track was written from a place of “hurt” rather than anger.“I wonder if people don’t like it because it sounds a little pissed off.
