Swift’s final surprise songs helped perfectly conclude the tour earlier this month, truly marking the end of an era.

Now, Taylor Swift/Debut (Taylor’s Version). But which of Taylor Swift's songs from the Eras Tour could the singer be retiring now that the international tour is over?

"Tim McGraw"

Album: Taylor Swift (Debut)

The Eras Tour was a unique opportunity because it was meant to span Taylor Swift's full discography rather than cover a specific album. The surprise song sets alone enabled Swift to play songs she had yet to perform live. In fact, even now, there are still songs Taylor Swift hasn’t played live. With the tour now over, though, there are a host of reasons Swift may not perform certain songs live again.

Swift is less likely to play these early songs, and with this tour now over, it’s difficult to imagine when she would play "Tim McGraw" again.

Swift’s very first single, “Tim McGraw,” is an example of one such song. Of all the albums, Swift’s debut album, Taylor Swift, was the least represented on the Eras Tour, although “Tim McGraw” was a surprise song more than once. Even so, it’s clear Swift is less likely to play these early songs, and with this tour now over, it’s difficult to imagine when she would play "Tim McGraw" again. Hopefully that isn’t the case, though, as this song that started it all is still beloved.

"Today Was A Fairytale"

Album: Fearless (Taylor's Version)

Yet another song that Taylor Swift may be unlikely to play live again is “Today Was a Fairytale,” another early song in her discography. Like “Tim McGraw,” “Today Was a Fairytale” was a surprise song during the Eras Tour, but this was arguably a much less expected addition. Originally, “Today Was a Fairytale” was intended to be included on Fearless, but Swift dropped the song from the album before it was first released.

"Today Was a Fairytale" was then played in the 2010 movie Valentine’s Day, which Taylor Swift also acted in.

"Today Was a Fairytale" was then played in the 2010 movie Valentine’s Day, which Taylor Swift also acted in. However, when Swift released Fearless (Taylor’s Version), she included “Today Was a Fairytale” on the album. Because of the song’s unique history and in light of it not being one of Swift’s major hits, it’s possible Swift may not play this song again. That would be a genuine shame, though; “Today Was a Fairytale” is a beautiful, largely underrated song.

"Cornelia Street"

Album: Lover

In addition to songs that may not be replayed live because they came early in Swift’s discography and/or aren’t among her most popular, Swift may also have personal reasons for not wishing to play certain songs live again. This is true for the Lover album, which many have long believed was written for/about Swift’s ex, Joe Alwyn, at least in part. After their six-year relationship ended, it would be more than reasonable for Swift to not want to play these songs again.

Swift is clearly a professional in a league of her own.

“Cornelia Street” is among the songs on Lover that Swift may not perform live again for this reason. Of course, Swift is clearly a professional in a league of her own, so it's possible her personal connection to these songs will have no bearing on her decisions to play them live again. This was a topic of conversation throughout the Eras Tour, as many of Swift's fans felt they saw her transform throughout the tour, going from heartbroken over these songs to happy and healed.

This can of course only be conjecture, but it is clear that personal matters didn't stop Swift from performing these songs during the Eras Tour. Even so, with the Eras Tour and Lover both now in Swift's rearview, it's unclear when or if she will play "Cornelia Street" again. Hopefully, like the other inclusions on this list, Swift will still find reasons to perform this song live. While it may have deep personal meaning to Taylor Swift, it is also a fan favorite for a reason.

"You're Losing Me"

Album: Midnights (From The Vault)

"You're Losing Me" is perhaps even less likely than "Cornelia Street" to be performed again live. Although Swift did play "You're Losing Me" as a surprise song during the Eras Tour, this song's unusual history and its heavy emotional weight may mean those live performances will be the song's last. "You're Losing Me" was originally included as a bonus track on Midnights (The Late Night Edition), and although it's available to stream now, for some time, it was difficult to even find online.

"You're Losing Me" is arguably one of Swift's most heartbreaking songs to date.

"You're Losing Me" is arguably one of Swift's most heartbreaking songs to date, as it captures the feelings of a relationship crumbling in real time. The track also feels more personal and vulnerable, even compared to Swift's other songs about heartbreak, as it begins with a deep sigh and maintains a heartbeat throughout the song. Particularly given the somber tone of the song, it's difficult to imagine a setting in which Swift would play "You're Losing Me" again, but hopefully she does. Lyrically, "You're Losing Me" is brilliant (and perfectly devastating).

"Would've, Could've, Should've"

Album: Midnights (3am Edition)

Yet another Midnights song—although this one from Midnights (3am Edition)—the future of "Would've, Could've, Should've" is also currently in question. Because the Eras Tour took place on the heels of Swift's release of Midnights, it's safe to assume that album will not be getting its own tour. However, there is another layer to this specific song that makes it feel even less likely to be played live again than other Midnights songs (many of which, like "Karma," proved incredibly popular and are likely to be performed again in the future).

Many have assumed that "Would've, Could've, Should've" is about the relationship Taylor Swift had with John Mayer when she was 19 and he was 32. Specifically, the lyrics, "I damn sure never would've danced with the devil / at 19" have led fans to this conclusion, in addition to some other references that seem linked to Mayer. However, Swift has made it clear in the years since the song was released that she doesn't want her fans going after anyone they believe her songs are about, Mayer undoubtedly included.

Interestingly, this statement came when she announced the release of Speak Now (Taylor's Version), which is also believed to have songs about Mayer. It certainly applies here as well, though, and raises questions about whether Swift will opt to perform this song live again. It will be a terrible shame if Swift doesn't play this song again in the future, as "Give my back my girlhood / it was mine first" has become a profound lyric for many.

"Hits Different"

Album: Midnights (Lavender Edition)

"Hits Different" was also a bonus track on a special edition of Midnights, this time Midnights (Lavender Edition). This song certainly gained popularity, but it doesn't seem to have gotten quite the same amount of traction that some of the other bonus tracks, such as "You're Losing Me," did. However, Swift did play "Hits Different" as a surprise song on the Eras Tour, once in Chicago and once in London.

Like many of the other songs on recent albums Midnights and Lover (not to mention The Tortured Poets Department), many believe this song is specifically about Joe Alwyn because the song refers to one relationship loss being more difficult than most others. The assumption seems to be that, because the two were together for so long, this must be about Alwyn. Whether it is or not, though, it's reasonable to consider the possibility that "Hits Different" may not be played live again, particularly because it wasn't one of her biggest smash hits.

"Dear John"

Album: Speak Now

"Dear John" is perhaps one of Taylor Swift's most popular songs, but there's plenty of reason to believe Swift won't be playing it live again in the future. As the title suggests, "Dear John" seems to be about John Mayer as well, although the title is also a play on a 'Dear John letter.' This is the precise song Swift seemed to be referencing in her brief speech to fans asking that they not defend her online.

It seems likely Swift wants to leave this era of her life behind, at least when it comes to the discourse surrounding her relationship with Mayer. However, Swift also indicates that she wants to play the song because she is proud of it, which may mean she will perform "Dear John" live again. It would be good news for many if she did plan to play it again in the future, because the song remains plenty popular—as the fanfare around her playing it during the Eras Tour proved.

"King Of My Heart"

Album: Reputation

Although "King of My Heart" is a popular Taylor Swift song and was among the Eras Tour's surprise songs, it remains unclear whether Swift will perform this song live again moving forward. As with songs like "Cornelia Street," "King of My Heart" is thought to be about Joe Alwyn, as it is from Reputation, an album that seemingly has many references to Swift's relationship with Alwyn. However, "King of My Heart" being from Reputation may be good news for those who want to hear the song performed live again.

Taylor Swift's fans are eagerly awaiting Reputation (Taylor's Version), and when it comes, there will almost certainly be a brand-new version of "King of My Heart."

Taylor Swift's fans are eagerly awaiting Reputation (Taylor's Version), and when it comes, there will almost certainly be a brand-new version of "King of My Heart." In light of the Eras Tour and the Reputation Stadium Tour, though, it isn't guaranteed that Reputation (Taylor's Version) will be performed live, at the very least not in its entirety. This could mean that "King of My Heart" has been played live for the last time—although there's plenty of hope that's not the case.

"Paper Rings"

Album: Lover

Although perhaps a surprising inclusion on this list, the very popular Lover song "Paper Rings" could also have a dubious future. "Paper Rings" is a fun, upbeat song that is generally a fan favorite, but that made it all the more shocking that Swift didn't include the song in the core set of the Eras Tour. "Paper Rings" was a surprise song only.

While that doesn't necessarily define the song's future, it does suggest it's not a song Swift wanted front-and-center. This could mean "Paper Rings" won't be heavily featured in live performances or concerts going forward. It could also come down to a question of the tone of Swift's albums. The tone of The Tortured Poets Department was quite distinct from that of "Paper Rings," for example. It isn't yet known what Swift will put out next, but perhaps there is a larger shift happening for Swift.

The Great War

Album: Midnights (3am Edition)

"The Great War," off of the Midnights (3am Edition) album, is arguably one of Swift's most underrated songs. Although it wasn't necessarily the most popular or most viral song from the Midnights album and was only used as a surprise song for the Eras Tour, "The Great War" is a brilliant and catchy song that deserves additional stage time. However, along with the other songs on this list, it's unclear whether "The Great War" will be played live again.

With the Eras Tour now behind her, and with an entire album that came out after Midnights, it's possible Taylor Swift won't pull from Midnights all that often for live performances—especially songs like "The Great War," which wasn't as popular as many others. Of course, Swift is known for being very difficult to predict, and she always has something new up her sleeve. While the future of these songs seems to be in question now, Taylor Swift will no doubt surprise everyone with what comes next.
