Taylor Swift included the breakup ballad “Last Kiss” — which is thought to be about Joe Jonas — in her 113th Eras Tour show Tuesday night in Zürich, Switzerland.
The 34-year-old pop star played the “Speak Now” song in a piano mashup with the “Red” breakup anthem “Sad Beautiful Tragic” during the acoustic section of her concert.
While Swift’s teenage breakup with Joe Jonas happened a very long time ago, it’s likely she chose to play the tune because it mentions Tuesday’s date in the lyrics: July 9.
“I do recall now the smell of the rain, fresh on the pavement, I ran off the plane / That July 9th, the beat of your heart / It jumps through your shirt, I can still feel your arms,” the lyrics whisper.
She previously played the song last year in Kansas City, Miss. on July 8, as there wasn’t a show on July 9.
The “Karma” hitmaker and Jonas Brothers member, 34, dated back in 2008 for a handful of months before their relationship soured.
Swift infamously put her ex on blast during a November 2008 interview on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” when she hinted that he broke her heart via a short phone call.
“Some day, I’m gonna find somebody really, really, really great, who’s right for me … When I find that person that is right for me, he’ll be wonderful and when I look at that person, I’m not even gonna be able to remember the boy who broke up with me over the phone in 25 seconds when I was 18,” she quipped.
The following year, the JoBros released the track “Much Better” with their album “Lines, Vines and Trying Times.”

The song seemingly responded to their breakup with lyrics reading, “Now I’m done with superstars / And all the tears on her guitar.”
Of course, one of Swift’s earliest hits is “Teardrops on My Guitar” — the second single from her debut album.
However, Swift visited “Ellen” again in 2019 and admitted her calling out Jonas “was too much.”
“We laugh about it now, but that was mouthy … just teenage stuff there,” she added.
The “Cake by the Ocean” hitmaker appeared on ITV’s “Lorraine” with his brothers the same year and said it was “nice” to hear Swift feel remorseful about the public blow.
Plus, during a 2022 performance in Las Vegas, Jonas changed the “Much Better” lyrics to, “Now I’m cool with superstars,” showing that any beef was behind them.
Swift even befriended Sophie Turner when she married her ex in 2019 — and possibly referenced their first child in her 2020 “Folklore” track “Invisible String,” in which she sings, “Cold was the steel of my axe to grind / For the boys who broke my heart / Now I send their babies presents.”
She also provided a place for Turner to stay in New York City when her and Jonas’ divorce news broke in September 2023.
Plus, the 28-year-old actress attended Swift’s Eras Tour in London last month with her beau, Travis Kelce, and others.
While Swift confirmed she will officially wrap the record-breaking tour in December, Jonas has plenty of time to catch a show before then.
