It’s not every day that you get to see two huge artists come together to create one special moment for their fans, but that’s exactly what Taylor Swift and the American country legend Luke Bryan did during Swift’s Red Tour in 2013.
While fans certainly expected some special things to happen during Taylor Swift’s sellout world tour, which spanned from March 2013 to June 2014, they likely weren’t expecting a special version of Luke Bryan’s classic “I Don’t Want This Night To End” to be recorded during the tour, with Luke Bryan himself sharing the stage with Taylor Swift. Watch the incredible video with behind-the-scenes footage below:
With the audience in the palm of her hands, Taylor Swift teases her fans by saying: “You know how special you are to me, you know how much I love you, right? So you must have known that I wasn’t going to show up here without a surprise for you… and this one’s really good!” Needless to say, the audience lost their minds when they realized that a brand new duet was about to happen in front of them, and Luke Bryan could be seen beaming with excitement as he entered the stage.
