On Oct. 22, 2012, Taylor Swift gifted the world with Red.

Even though we are currently in a seemingly never-ending but continually epic celebration of 1989, it's pretty much impossible to not think back fondly on Tay's previous venture, the Red era.

Taylor ditched the tea-party dresses for high-waisted shorts, straightened her hair, added some bangs and gracefully transitioned from country star to pop sensation. From crazy-good, hard-to-resist tracks like "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" to insane live concert and award show performances, the Red album pretty much changed everything, and everyone was totally about it.

Let's take look back at some of the most iconic live performances from the Red era:

"State Of Grace"

When the curtain drops... GOOSEBUMPS.

"Red"

Taylor stripped down "Red" with Alison Krauss, Vince Gill, Sam Bush, Edgar Meyer and Eric Darken at the 47th Annual CMA Awards in 2013.

"Treacherous"

"We wrote a song about when you're falling for someone and you know that it's dangerous and you know that it could really, really, really, really, really, just annihilate you if it were to not work out, and it could possibly not work out, and it probably won't work out, but you go for it anyway."

"I Knew You Were Trouble"

When Taylor was pretty much initiated into the Victoria's Secret Angels squad.

“All Too Well”

The most powerful performance of the Red era, for sure.

"22"

"Happy, free, confused and lonely in the best way,"

"I Almost Do"

Tampa, Florida was treated to an exclusive performance of this song on The Red Tour.

"We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together"

When she said "I still love you" in the British Accent. DEAD.

"Stay Stay Stay"

Mashed up with The Lumineers "Ho Hey" -- genius.

"The Last Time" featuring Gary Lightbody

Tay teamed up with Snow Patrol lead singer Gary Lightbody for this emotional duet.

"Holy Ground"

Taylor gave her black hat to an audience member during every show of The Red Tour.

"Sad Beautiful Tragic"

The final Red Tour show got a special performance of "Sad Beautiful Tragic."

"The Lucky One"

Classic-Hollywood Tay is everything.

"Everything Has Changed" ft. Ed Sheeran

Taylor and Ed performed their duet for the first time on "Britain’s Got Talent".

"Starlight"

Newark, New Jersey got "Starlight" as their bonus song, and Swifties went cray.

"Begin Again"

"But on a Wednesday in a café I watched it begin again."
