    This album is written by someone who is no longer looking for love, who has really found love. The color of this album is nothing but romantic. It explores different aspects of love and emotional. Taylor Swift has grown so much as a person and as an artist. Excellent album

    there’s not one song that doesn’t have its own identity; every track belongs on this album and they are revolutionary.

    Taylor veio e mostrou mais uma vez que é sim a maior artista da historia da musica, lover sem muitos esforços senta na trindade do pop e mostra a força gigantesca de swift.

    Her most mature album to date. It absolutely is my album of the year! Girl you have done it again, constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly.

    Uma obra de arte da música pop, certamente o melhor álbum nesse estilo da Taylor. As composições são muito bem construídas, a forma com a qual ela explora outros gêneros musicais ao decorrer do álbum é fantástica e, como um todo, se revela muito coeso.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lover is a great pop album. It exudes hapiness, joy and emotion. It exudes hapiness, joy and emotion. I loved 1989, but going into the pop sound she went with the 2014 album, I believe she sacrificed lyrics a bit, whereas in lover I think she paid closer attention to them. However, in my opinion, the album is too long, I believe with 15 songs the message would have equally come across, but I can spot just a few filler moments on here, "It's Nice to Have a Friend" and "London Boy" would be my least favourite tracks. However, in lover, Swift delivered some of her best material. When Taylor and Jack Antonoff team up they create pop magic, like in Cruel summer, a perfectly crafted 80's synthpop bop, or The Archer, with a really nice dreamy vibe and minimal incredible production. Great effort.… Expand

    O jeito com que a Taylor compõe é o que a faz tão expressivamente boa no que faz. Suas canções acompanham sua vida e nós conseguimos sentir tudo.

A falta de explosões é compensada com a forma perfeita com que a voz da Taylor é trabalhada, então não posso reclamar. O Lover está perfeito, só isso.… Expand

    Album of career! It's the work the fans needed. mature, sentimental, intimate and sincere; without losing her new pop essence, sounds like an 80's pop/rock. It's magical what Taylor did here.

    Taylor Swift spreads her wings in this new piece. The production is superb, the lyrical content is excellent. She tackles subject such as sexism, heartbreak, love, and fear of losing a lover. I rate it a 10 because every track is great. There are no fillers and the sounds are diverse. No one track sounds the same.

    I love this album so much, because it evokes me at the beginning of my adolescence with very good and catchy sounds, in addition to a very heartbreaking lyrics.
    This album is simply successful.

    An incredible blend of Taylor’s songwriting ability. Within an hour you want to dance, cry and call your mom. An album that makes you feel nostalgic for the past and hopeful for the future, and excitied about the prospects of finding your very own Lover

    She has definitely grown into a mature, cohesive artist from reputation. This album proves that she can be as colorful and fun from the dark and anguish reputation album concept.

I'm glad I listened to it on the first release (Re: The last time, when reputation was released, I didn't liked it on the first listen) because I think it is one of the most dedicated & sweetest pop albums to ever come out this millenium. Lover, I think is too short for a Swiftie like me but still, this is Taylor Swift's most old and new (the transition from Country to Pop) Taylor Swift album since 1989. It's a gift for hopeless romantics, singles & most importantly, lovers. My top tracks: False Gid, The Man, Cornelia Street, The Archer, I Forgot That You Existed, Death By A Thousand Cuts.… Expand

    One of her best albums, full of sad and happy songs. I’m glad she is trying new tunes and melodies and her vocals have developed a lot. Im also glad she decided to embrace the streaming department. She seems to be doing great

    It’s an album that screams out for an editor, but when it hits the right notes, it demonstrates just why Taylor Swift is one of the biggest pop stars in the world.

    Ultimately, Lover is overstuffed and meandering, but serves as a positive reprieve from her past struggles in the public eye, and represents an artist at the peak of her creativity, power, and—one hopes—continued romantic bliss.

    Lover is a fabulous record, full of super-fun standout pop hits that make your heart burst. It oozes with Swift’s much more palatable upbeat sass. She’s in love and also thinking about different kinds of love.
