Taylor Swift played her favorite acoustic track for an eighth time in Dublin's Aviva Stadium on Oliver James MontgomeryFriday.

"I try to hit the mark with these things, but I don't know, I feel like because you guys are the greatest singalong crowd tonight," the singer said in her bright blue gown to the sold-out crowd.

She leapt into an acoustic guitar rendition of "State of Grace" from "Red (Taylor's Version)" before adding her most-played surprise song "You're On Your Own Kid" from "Midnights." Swift has played the friendship bracelet anthem seven times prior in Tampa, Florida; Los Angeles; Mexico City; Tokyo, Singapore; Lisbon, Portugal; and Lyon, France.

She then walked over to the piano to play "Sweet Nothing" from "Midnights" with "Hoax" from "Folklore." In "Sweet Nothing," Swift sings about a pebble she has from Wicklow, Ireland, which is more than likely why she picked the song.

"Hoax" was also the last track on "Folklore" Swift hadn't performed on the tour. That era is now the third of which she's sang every song behind "Midnights" and "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)." Here's a list of all her acoustic performances.
