During the Saturday, Oct. 5 episode of Saturday Night Live, the 29-year-old pop star served as the musical guest for the second episode of the season. Swift showcased two ballads off her latest No. 1 album, the title track "Lover" and "False God."

During "Lover," Swift looked dashing wearing a green turtle-neck and earrings against a matching green set. She played the piano and accompanied herself while singing the tune, cooing lines like "I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover" amidst the he romantic atmosphere. With sheet paper flying behind her, the performance was a dream-like production that totally put the spotlight on Swift and her vocals. Her raw musical talent, which has been with her throughout her evolution from teen singer to global superstar, is unmistakable in the raw performance of "Lover."

For her second performance, Swift delivered the debut performance of the ballad "False God" and took things up a notch with a darker, more glam aesthetic. She donned a black blazer, sparkling trousers, and a plunging top. With her red lipstick and blonde trestles, Swift shone on the set, which had a layer of fog and candle-like lamps. She was joined on stage with backup singers as well as the Saturday Night Live band's saxophone player, whom Swift gave the stage to for a magnificent, jazzy solo.

Not surprisingly, the stripped-down performances have all the Swift fans buzzing on social media, who got the hashtag #TaylorOnSNL trending.
