One of the best pop hits of the year, it’s hard to think how ‘Closer’ by Tegan & Sara could be better. Perhaps by adding Taylor Swift to the mix?
Well, that’s exactly what happened at the latter’s L.A concert last night at the city’s Staples Center, with Swift bringing out the Canadian duo to perform their recent single with her.
In doing so, Tegan & Sara joined a rather eclectic (to say the very least) list of performers that have recently teamed-up live with Taylor, a rundown that includes Carly Simon, T.I and even Jimmy Eat World’s Jim Adkins.
