May 29, 2009, (Sawf News) - Rising country singer, Taylor Swift, delighted fans at Rockefeller Plaza in New York City this morning, appearing on NBC’s Today Show, performing You Belong With Me and Love Story from her sophomore album Fearless.
Other songs in the set included Teardrops On My Guitar, I’m loving it! and Our Song.
In a MySpace blog post early this morning, the 19-year-old admitted to being very excited about her appearance.
“So.. This is not smart. This. Being awake at 2:47 AM. You know why? Because my wake up call is at 5:00 AM. I'm playing on the Today show tomorrow/in a few hours, and I'm very excited about it. So excited, in fact, that I haven't really gotten around to sleeping,” she wrote.
On a break from her first headlining tour, Fearless 2009, in support of the album that has already sold over 3 million copies, Swift will fly to her hometown, Nashville, later today to “record a lot of new songs I've written in the last few weeks.” (Yes, she is already working on her third album!)
She will resume her tour on June 4 with a performance at Enterprise, AL.
“I want to get back to the tour though. Bad. I miss it every time I'm gone for a day. I've never had more fun doing anything in my life than I have on the Fearless tour. Thank you so much to everyone who has come to see the show. I can't even tell you how unreal it is for me, being up there, looking at those crowds. I just never thought I'd luck out like this.”
