Are you ready for it?

Taylor Swift surprised her fans when she made a major announcement in Melbourne, Australia, on Sunday.

The singer, 34, told the crowd at her latest concert that she’ll no longer ban herself from performing any of her acoustic “surprise songs” more than once on her Eras Tour.

“That was to challenge me to really get to all the ones that I just don’t naturally gravitate towards, and I feel really proud about having done that,” the “Bad Blood” songstress began.

“But this is sort of a public service announcement to everyone who might be anywhere else on the tour, or whatever, or watching this — we have a lot of people, we’re very lucky to have a lot of people watch this on the internet and care about these shows if they’re not here.”

“I’ve just been kind of rethinking, and I’ve been thinking I want to be as creative as possible with the acoustic set moving forward and I don’t want to limit anything or say, ‘If I played this song, I can’t play it again,’” she said.

“So, from now on, I don’t want to take any paint colors out of the paintbox or tools out of the toolbox.”

“I want to be able to play songs more than once if I feel like it and I want to be able to make changes to songs. Does that sound OK?” she added.

Immediately after the “Cruel Summer” singer made the suggestion, the 96,000 attendees inside Melbourne Cricket Ground erupted in applause.

And those performances came one day after she delivered a mashup of “Getaway Car,” “August” and “The Other Side of the Door” at her Feb. 17 show at the same venue.

Swift, who announced her new album — “The Tortured Poets Department” — at the 2024 Grammys earlier this month, wrapped up her three Melbourne shows with a message to her fans on Instagram.

“Melbourne, what do I even say to you after over 288,000 of you came and danced with us in the last 3 nights ??! That was unforgettable. You were on another LEVEL. Thank you for the memories. I’ll revisit the ones from this weekend often 🥲🫶,” she wrote on Sunday while posting a series of images and videos from her recent Australia concerts.

Swift will next head to Sydney for four Eras Tour dates at Accor Stadium starting on Feb. 23.
