The moment took place during Abrams’ show at the Kia Forum on Thursday (August 7), when the singer revealed she’d spoken to Swift “earlier today”.
“It just is not lost on me that the reason that a lot of us know each other is because I got to meet many of you through doing the Eras Tour with Taylor,” Abrams told the crowd.
“I just feel like I’m forever missing what that experience was. I know we all feel that way … I wanted to sing a song for you that I’ll forever wish I wrote, if you’ve got 10 minutes.”
It comes after Abrams opened for Swift at select dates on the colossal tour, as well as performing with her in December, with the two delivering a mash-up of ‘I Love You, I’m Sorry’ and Swift’s ‘Last Kiss’, taken from her 2010 album ‘Speak Now’.

The extended cut, which featured on Swift’s re-recorded version of 2012 album ‘Red’ in 2021, was the original version of the song Swift first wrote before she cut it down to the five-and-a-half-minute one that appeared on ‘Red’. It features additional verses and arrived alongside an accompanying short film.
In four-star review of ‘Red (Taylor’s Version)’, NME‘s Hannah Mylrea said the 10-minute-long version of ‘All Too Well’ stole the show, writing: “Now at its full intended length, ‘All Too Well’ only confirms its place as an epic, with the Swiftian story played out as the instrumental ebbs and flows behind her vocals.”
Swift and Abrams had previously teamed up on ‘Us’, taken from Abrams’ latest album. In November, the song was nominated at the Grammys for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, but ultimately lost out to Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars for ‘Die With A Smile’.
Abrams has frequently praised Swift, saying earlier this year that no man has “come close to defining pop culture” as the ‘Love Story’ singer has.
She also revealed in December that the end of the ‘Eras’ tour had everyone “crying all day”: “It felt like the last day of school backstage. Everyone was walking around with their [tour] books, signing each other’s books. We were all walking around with Sharpies.”
Abrams ‘The Secret Of Us’ scored a four-star review from NME upon its release in June: “It’s a moment of pure pop catharsis that leans into the good, bad and messy of infatuation. This is the joy of ‘The Secret of Us’: it doesn’t shy away from the complex or contradictory. Here Gracie Abrams embraces her growing pains and celebrates enduring the difficult moments. She’s never sounded better.”
In other news, she recently brought Robyn onstage at Lollapalooza to perform a duet of ‘Dancing On My Own’. She also played Glastonbury this year, covering The Cure in her Other Stage set and then delivering the viral Apple Dance during Charli XCX’s headline set on the same stage the following night.
