Taylor Swift interrupts 'All Too Well' three times in Amsterdam: 'Do they have help?'

Taylor Swift asked Amsterdam stadium workers three times to help fans during her 10-minute performance of "All Too Well."
As she was wrapping her "Red" era, Swift sang "I'd like to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it." Her eyes became fixated on the floor section to the right side of the stage (audience perspective). She continued singing her next two lines before stopping, saying, "They need some help over there where they are shinning their lights."
Her eyes didn't seem to leave the area and she strummed her guitar and continued singing. Her black and red jacket glistening.
"But you keep my old scarf from that very first week cause it reminds you of innocence and reminds you of me you can't get it rid of it," she sang before slightly raising her voice to say firmly, "They need help."
As her hand pointed in the general area that fans waved their flashlights in the Johan Cruijff Arena, she sang for 30 more seconds before interrupting the song a third time, "Do they have help?"

By the third interruption, workers made it to the jam-packed floor area. One tweet from a concertgoer says, "GA is SO over packed it's frightening."
On Friday, two eras later during the combined “Folkmore” set, Swift was explaining her "Betty" songwriting process when she stopped to ask fans, “Do we need some help back there? Are you good? Are you happy or… oh, you’re just happy. You’re just holding your phone up. That’s great. That’s better. By the way, everyone here working at the stadium cares so much about you guys. And they are so on top of it and I just wanted to say thank you to them.”
Stadium workers passed out free water along the floor and emergency responders were on standby to assist fans who became overheated during the show.
During the "Midnights" era, Swift spoke into the mic in-between lines of "Mastermind" to ask for assistance.
"Need some help right there, thank you," she said in the pauses between chorus lines. "Center stage, thank you."
Asking for help frequently in Europe
Outside of Swift's U.S. Eras Tour, floor seating is typically open, meaning there are no chairs and no assigned seats. Swift has stopped her show frequently in Europe to ask for help for fans.
In Scotland, the singer noticed a fan needed help and strummed her guitar until assistance arrived.
In London, she asked for assistance during several songs.
The interruptions mostly happen during songs from the "Folkmore" (combined "Folklore"/"Evermore" set), "Red" and "1989" sets.
The temperature in the Netherlands capital may be 62 degrees, but some fans won't drink a lot of water before the first-come, first-served show because they fear of having to use the bathroom and losing their spot close to the long catwalk.
Swift has one more show in Amsterdam on Saturday.
