“I appreciate you so much for the ways that you have treated me and other artists and writers with such support and encouragement,” singer says via video, which appeared to draw boos and cheers
Alan Jackson took his final live performance bow Saturday night in Nashville at Nissan Stadium, and he was joined by a bevy of fellow stars, both in real life and virtually, including Taylor Swift who appeared via video.
In a clip played right before Jackson took the stage for his last concert on his One More for the Road – The Finale tour, Swift’s surprise video was played on screens flanking the stage.
“Hi Alan, it’s Taylor. I just want to say thank you for your decades of unbelievable songwriting and performances and the ways you’ve given so much to us, the fans,” she said. In the heartfelt video, she shared that her favorite song of his is “Drive.”
“In that song you really paint such a picture and let us into details of your life and I know that that was an example that was so good for me to see at a young age, an artist really just letting fans into the details of his life,” she added. “And I appreciate you so much for the ways that you have treated me and other artists and writers with such support and encouragement over the years, and I am so excited for you doing your show and just appreciate you so much. Love you!”
