Ariana's P.O.V.

"Can you believe how close we are?"Paige squeals as we sit down in our front row seats to see Taylor Swift. There are thousands of people here waiting for the concert to start.

"In only a few minutes, I'm gonna see the love of my life"Justin smiles up at the stage. Tonight he's wearing an I Love Taylor Swift T-shirt and a shake it off baseball cap. He has the words t-swift face painted on his cheek, along with Paige.

"Smile for the camera"I tell Justin and Paige. They both smile and I snap a picture of them.

A few minutes later, the tune of Welcome To New York begins to play.

The whole place begins to scream and go wild as Taylor Swift slowly rises from underneath the stage.
Justin and Paige begin to go crazy causing me and Lucas to laugh uncontrollably at them.

"What's up Palo Alto?"Taylor Swift asks the crowd earning a ton of screams. "If you know this song, sing along with me!"She encourages.

"Walking through a crowd
The village is aglow
Kaleidoscope of loud
Heartbeats under coats
Everybody here
Wanted something more
Searching for a sound
We hadn't heard before
And it said

Welcome To New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome To New York
Welcome To New York
Welcome To New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome To New York
Welcome To New York"She sings, the crowd around me singing along with her to the lyrics.

Taylor begins to walk on the stage walkway and heads straight towards, singing the next verse.

She looks happy and radiant on stage as she sings her song to all of her fans. I look around the whole place and admire the fact that all these people love her and know all the words to her music.

I imagine myself being a famous musician but only for a few seconds. I'm sure it would feel nice to be up on a real stage set singing to thousands of my fans. The feeling Taylor must feel hearing her fans sing back to her and go crazy at the sight of her must be exciting.

It makes me wonder if I could ever get big like her. I love writing music but would people love hearing what I have to sing? Would I make it big in the music industry? That will probably all remain a mystery.

Taylor begins to sing her chorus again and starts to reach out her hands to the front row fans.

"Welcome To New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome To New York
Welcome To New York
Welcome To New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome To New York
Welcome To New York"She sings and touches her hand with Justin and Paige.

I watch as their eyes go wide and they begin to both squeal together.

"Taylor Swift just touched my hand!"Justin freaks out and lays the hand she touched up to his cheek like its a soft blanket.

"I am never washing this hand again"He says. "Me neither"Paige agrees. Me and Lucas can't help but laugh at them again.

Taylor soon finishes Welcome To New York and begins to talk in her microphone.

"How are ya'll doing tonight?"She asks and the crowd screams. "I'm so glad to be here and I'm so happy that all of you are here supporting me. I can't express how happy I am for being here with you guys. Are you ready for the next song?"She asks and the crowd answers with more shouts.

The tune of New Romantics begin to play and Taylor starts to sing again.

I take out my phone to record Justin and Paige sing every lyric to the song.
