When it comes to accidentally hitting the wrong note during a show, Taylor Swift can shake it off!
On Saturday, July 27, Swift, 34, took the stage for her first show at the Olympiastadion in Munich, Germany, as part of her record-breaking Eras Tour, and had a minor misstep as she performed her secret songs segment.After pairing “Fresh Out the Slammer” from The Tortured Poets Department and the 1989 track “You Are in Love” on guitar, Swift headed to her piano for the second medley. However, she flubbed the opening notes when starting the song and immediately joked about her mistake.
“Sometimes you just don’t hit the right note, do you?” she said, as seen in a viral clip shared on X (formerly Twitter), before she dove right into her medley of Evermore‘s “Ivy” and Reputation‘s “Call It What You Want.”
This isn’t the first time Swift’s beautifully painted piano seemed to fail her. During her Milan Eras Tour stop on July 14, the piano glitched during her secret songs set. “We have finally broken this thing,” the Grammy winner joked at the time, as a crew member joined her onstage to fix her instrument.
Luckily, the piano was just fine, and the show carried on without issue.

Taylor Swift Says Hamburg Eras Tour Shows Unlocked ‘Fuzzy Hair Me’: ‘Been Having a Blast’
Before her tour stop in Munich, the “Karma” singer performed in Hamburg, Germany, and revealed that she did her own hair, makeup and styling for the Folklore album shoot as she set up for that portion of the concert.
“You can’t have hair and makeup. You can’t have wardrobe. You just have to do it yourself,” Swift, who marked the fourth anniversary of the album, said in a fan-captured video shared on TikTok.
“So, I called my friend who has some woods behind her house and was like, ‘Can I take some pictures in your forest?’ She said, ‘Yes.’ I ordered all these nightgowns online and brought them and did my own hair and makeup and just was like, ‘I guess I’ll braid it, I don’t know.’ “
She also reflected on making the album during the COVID-19 lockdown with producers Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner.
“Making an album is usually such a collaborative situation. You usually get lots of people together, you usually get to play all these new songs for your friends or your band and you get to be in the same room with the people you’re writing or producing with. All of that went away during the pandemic,” Swift shared, adding that she recorded songs with Antonoff, 40, and Dessner, 48, on the phone.
“It was such a challenge for us as creators, but it was so fulfilling,” she noted.
On a separate night in Hamburg, Swift gave an on-stage shout-out to “King Swiftie” himself, Flavor Flav, who traveled all the way to Germany to catch another show. Swift also treated fans to the live debut of her song “Run,” a vault cut from Red (Taylor’s Version).
On Thursday, July 25, the “I Can Do It with a Broken Heart” singer revealed that she’d taken on a new title as godmother to Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s kids while celebrating the actor’s new movie Deadpool & Wolverine, which hit theaters on Friday, July 26.
“Shout out to Wade Wilson, aka my godkids’ sperm donor!” Swift wrote at the end of her post, referencing Reynolds’ character Deadpool’s real name.
