The interview was also extra special given that she was living in New York, having just moved from Nashville. The interview instantly gets off to a great start as Taylor Swift is greeted with a warm reception from the audience, one that has Swift completely teary-eyed.

Letterman reacted to the standing ovation, "That's right. The crowd goes crazy. Taylor Swift." Letterman even gestures for the audience to settle down saying, "Okay, thank you."

"Wow, I like them," Swift responds. Letterman jokingly says that some of the reaction was meant for him as well. Dave then starts off the interview by showering Swift with praise for her work, something The Late Show host rarely did with other guests. His admiration for Swift was obvious.

The chemistry between Letterman and Swift is obvious throughout the chat. Swift would even discuss what it was like living in New York, just having moved there at the time.

"Any time I talk to anyone or any time I do an interview, I'm like, 'You don't understand. You have to go there now. You have to go to New York. Just drop what you're doing, and go there. It's amazing. It's the greatest place ever.' "And I guess the city picked up on that," Taylor continued jokingly. "She's the most enthusiastic, obnoxious person to ever love New York. She loves it with like 18 exclamation points afterward, underlined."

Letterman then asks if New York paid her to be an ambassador type of figure since making her move. Swift confirmed she was not paid for the move... Nonetheless, Swift is still clearly content with her decision as she still has a place in New York a decade later.

As a senior, I see a moral decline in our society perpetuated by young "adults". Taylor is a breath of fresh air and a classy lady. I'm so glad that she is so willing to give so much of herself for the general welfare of all of us. Taylor is a poster child for human kindness. Bravo, Taylor!!!"

Taylor Swift Had Other Emotional Moments On Late Night Talk Shows

Taylor Swift had other emotional talk show moments. This one in particular also took place in New York, though this time Jimmy Fallon was holding back tears after Swift surprised him with a performance following the passing of his mom.

Producer Mike DiCenzo revealed the details of Swift's last minute surprise for Fallon's return episode.

"She was not scheduled to do our show today. But we wanted something special for this first show back, so we asked her on a complete whim, since she had been in town doing SNL. She said yes with zero hesitation,” DiCenzo wrote.

“She sang ‘New Year’s Day.’ No one had heard it. Suddenly she sings the line, ‘Squeeze my hand 3 times in the back of the taxi.’ I nearly gasped. Tears. I think everyone in the audience started sobbing. I could see Jimmy silhouetted at his desk dabbing his eyes with a tissue. We all lost it. It was a beautiful coincidence in a beautiful performance. ‘Hold on to your memories, they will hold on to you,’ Taylor sang.”

A great moment on The Tonight Show and one Jimmy Fallon won't ever forget.
