    Girl you have done it again, constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly. I’d say I’m surprised but I know who you are, I’ve seen it up close and personal. Girl you make me so proud and I love you.

    The only thing critics had been saying negatively about this album is that it’s too long. And so far, they’re the only ones complaining. As I see it, this album is for her fans and herself, so 18 tracks really isn’t an issue here. I didn’t like ME! at first but knowing her style, I knew it’s probably the not-so-best track off the album (much like LWYMMD from reputation).

I didn’t like ME! at first but knowing her style, I knew it’s probably the not-so-best track off the album (much like LWYMMD from reputation). YNTCD was met with controversy but overall it has done more good than bad (as claimed by members of the LGBTQIA+ community whom SHE is fighting for). Y’all just making excuses to hate on her, and to be honest, it’s your loss. I know people would say “I miss the old Taylor” or RED was better, what this album symbolizes is her growth in all aspects of her life, and I love a story of maturity. This 18-tracked album may be overwhelming at first but once you give it a listen, you’ll find yourself hitting that ‘repeat’ button and listening to it for ten more rounds. Expand

    The album has great points like it's compositions, production and is very effective in creating a happy atmosphere, but the only problem is the extense track-list with some songs that could have been cut from the final album.

    Taylor Swift continues to embrace her talent of songwriting and this beautifully shines in her 7th album 'Lover'. Well written lyrics weaved with outstanding production brings the album on a whole new level. Other than being a collection of love songs, it gets people thinking about issues occurring in society today such as feminism and equality.

    I think Lover is one of her best albums to date. She's continuing to grow but still connecting to her past albums and song. I'm excited to see where/what she'll do with singles because she has plenty of options.

    Lover is an album that shows Swift’s current phase in life and we’re all here for it. She has finally found love and is in her ‘happy place’ which is what this album is all about. Love.

This album is also a lyrical masterpiece which comes as no surprise seeing as its from the lyrical genius herself, Taylor Swift. With an upbeat feminist anthem “The Man” and a subtle but very political “Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince”, this album has a lot to relate to the current society. It shows how far Swift has come in her life and that she is finally standing up for things that really matters. Swift’s current outspoken stand on LGBTQ rights is also changing the world one signature at a time. With a petition addressed to President Trump and The White House to pass the Equality Act, the Pride anthem “You Need To Calm Down” has been a celebrated track among the LGBTQ community. The raw emotions of “Soon You’ll Get Better” which she dedicates to her mom who is battling cancer, will have listeners bawling. In a nutshell,
    “Lover” is truly and amazing and inspiring album, and thank you to Taylor Swift for giving us such a masterpiece.

    as “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince” and “Afterglow” reminds us her reputation’s modern electropop production, Lover incorporates brighter, more cheerful tones, departing from the dark sounds of its predecessor, reputation.
    Also False God has a really different sound for her, definitely one of my favourites [that saxophone].

    Lover is Taylor Swift’s finest artistic hour since 2012’s Red, and probably her second-best overall (again, behind her crossover masterpiece). Vocally refreshing, consistent in lyrical quality, sonically cohesive, and deftly produced, Lover is the closest pop music could get to art in this decade of musical decline.

    Definitely my favorite album released this year. Best pop album I’ve heard in years. It is filled with many jams that have great lyrical content. Although there are many upbeat songs there’s also just enough slower songs to balance out the whole album.

    American Queen did it again. Every song is literally a masterpiece with beautiful lyrics. Best album of hers. Also best album of the decade.

    Fresh, romantic, authentic, it creates such a beautiful atmosphere and the way the tracks flow compliments the album so well. Taylor's voice sounds like an instrument (in a good way) and the production doesn't outshine her. I wish Selena was featured on one of the tracks. However, it's very personal and worth listening and don't even make me start with the lyrics, damnn...it makes yourFresh, romantic, authentic, it creates such a beautiful atmosphere and the way the tracks flow compliments the album so well.

Maybe her best album to date, who would've thought she could pull such a strong album 13 years in her career. Simply impressive and strategic. Expand

    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.
