Hello Hive Music Gang!
Welcome to another #threetunetuesday created originally by 
Well it finally happened, the Eras Tour was finally released on Disney+ and I managed to catch it. My wife is a Swifty and was wanting to go and see the concert live, but the price of the tickets made that a no-go when you have a family and other priorities.
We have watched her previous documentaries and find some of her tunes pretty catchy and we thought it was something we could watch together. Oh how wrong I was! haha
I started watching the concert and waiting for some of the tunes that I know and even my teenage daughter joined me as she is also a Swifty.. but well, in the words of my daughter.. it was "boring"!
I don't know how, of course you want to listen to the tunes, but you also want to be entertained a little and there was something really missing from this show. That isn't to say Taylor didn't work hard or sing well, it was just the show was pretty... boring! A real dissapointment.
This has now got me questioning whether I can call myself a Swifty anymore. I certainly am glad I missed out on going to the concert with my wife as it would have been painful to sit through this for so many hours.
This leads on to the first tune for today which is probably the most shared tune from the Eras Tour, Cruel Summer. This was quite good to watch in the performance and I think the tune is quite nice too.
Taylor Swift - Cruel Summer
The majority of songs and scenes from the tour were around boyfriends and feelings. It was the typical girly stuff that is really hard to stomach if you are a guy. I certainly couldn't relate to my emotional side, it just made me think, oh my god, get me out of here!
When they say men are from Mars and women are from Venus, I couldn't see anyway to bridge the gap back to reality here, even if I was a keen Swifty before.
Even some nice tunes like Blank Space with a funny-ish video was sang pretty boring in the concert which was disappointing.
Taylor Swift - Blank Space
The final tune is probably the most recent one of Taylor that I know as I didn't listen to her whole album. Mostly I just heard this one on the radio and it had that ok pop-ish sound that I am used to with Taylor.
During the concert, there were many times Taylor brought out her trusty guitar and it was akin to listening to a friend strumming along. Just it was abit basic and not so interesting to watch. The dancers and scenes were really dull.
If the target audience, my teenage daughter thought it was boring, I can't imagine she would have enjoyed to be there. Perhaps my expectations were too high and expecting a Superbowl half-time show with the choreography designed by Madonna was too much, I don't know how I had such high expectations.
Taylor Swift - Anti-Hero
