“I just want to thank them for being one of my favorites,” Taylor said in the throwback interview.
“They’ve made Australia one of my favorite places because we get to come here and play in stadiums.”
“And there’s such a great audience and such great fans I just want to thank them for making this a place I come, and I feel very comfortable here because I feel like they understand what I’m trying to do to do. ‘
