After concluding the European leg of her Eras tour, Taylor Swift unveiled the official music video for “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.” The video includes behind-the-scenes footage that takes viewers from the tour’s setup to Swift’s movements behind and beneath the stage.

The video begins with a time-lapse showing a stadium filling up before a concert. It then cuts to Swift preparing for her first night entrance through the floor, set to “Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince.” She’s shown being transported on a moving seat under the stage while wearing her Lover-era bodysuit, before changing into an outfit for the Fearless era. Fans also get a glimpse of Swift getting into the “cleaning cart” that takes her to the elevator platform for the start of the show. The video also features her rehearsing the very anthem, which became the second single from her latest album, *The Tortured Poets Department*, following “Fortnight (feat. Post Malone).” The lyrics are synchronized with footage of Swift rehearsing in athletic wear, stage costumes, and scenes of Kam Saunders, one of her dancers, leading a 1-2-3-4 countdown.

Swift’s dancers, background vocalists, and longtime guitarist Paul Sidoti also appear in the music video.

Swift premiered the music video to the audience after her final London show, where she brought out Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine to perform their song “Florida!!!” from *The Tortured Poets Department*. During the surprise songs segment, Swift was joined by longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff to perform a guitar mashup of “Death by a Thousand Cuts” from *Lover* and “Getaway Car” from *Reputation*. They even recreated the iconic moment from Swift’s *Miss Americana* documentary when they wrote the bridge for “Getaway Car.” She concluded the segment by playing “So Long London” on the piano.

Swift has 18 shows left on her tour, which will resume in North America this October at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. After that, she’ll head to New Orleans, Indianapolis, and Toronto, before wrapping up the record-breaking tour with three nights in Vancouver. During her final Wembley performance, she acknowledged the crowd for helping her become the first artist to play eight nights at the London stadium.
