“Then we decided to experiment with it on the floor,” Hall explained. “So we rethought it. “

The pair then played a short clip of the song, before Hall admitted he “couldn’t wait” for Travis, 35, to hear it.

Jason noted that the Swifties “came out” in support of him and Travis.

“I sent out one tweet when it turned eight, and I got about 85 tweets from Swifties all over the world saying, ‘Oh, you think eight is good? We’re taking this to No. 1,’ and they did,” he explained. “It’s a powerful group, it’s a powerful group of people.”

Travis then praised Swift, with whom he has been dating since the summer of 2023.

“Thanks, Taylor. (We) appreciate you, and thank the Swifties,” Travis said.

Jason previously said he thinks this would be the case “pretty incredible” to feature Swift, 34, on one of their Christmas albums.
