    Excelente trabajo, ella es un camaleón, y todo le queda bien, grandiosa. Un álbum con canciones movidas, suaves y relajantes, algunas letras profundas y otras que te ponen de punta. 10/10

    Ms. Swift proves to all of us that even after she's fell in love she can make a great album. Lover is such beautiful album that can make you feel free, sad and wanna dance. Everything about this album is very AMAZING.

    In honor of Lover's second birthday (which is the reason I'm on a review sprint tonight), I wanted to share my thoughts on the album that defined 2019.

Lover was a reset for Taylor, an obvious departure from the dark reputation and it was refreshing to see Taylor write another happy record. She sings in the first track (which is a perfect opener by the way) about forgetting the people who did her wrong and that they mean nothing to her. It then goes into what I believe is the best song on the record, "Cruel Summer." The song pulsates and takes clear inspiration from St Vincent (who's a cowriter on this song). The bridge stands out the most of course, I mean no one thought that was Taylor the night the album dropped. The next track, "Lover" might be Taylor's most romantic track to date, only being rivaled by folklore's, "peace." The song also has a beautiful bridge and was written solo. "The Man" is a wonderful feminist anthem, and is followed by "The Archer," which is a wonderful track 5 about public pressures and being hated and then loved. The next tracks are all characterized by their sometimes emotional and love related themes. "Paper Rings" is a wonderful track, very 80s synth-pop comparable to some of the work on 1989. "ME!" and "You Need To Calm Down," were notably weaker songs but they were singles and sometimes singles just aren't made to be phenomenal songs. The album closes with "Daylight" which is another highlight on this album and while "Afterglow," as well as "Daylight" are sonically similar, thematically they're polar opposites. Taylor really did phenomenal work on this album and it's aged like wine being one of the most successful albums of 2019. Happy 2 year anniversary, Lover! Expand

    Lover is a good album with actual songs that I liked but some tracks are really forgettable and brings nothing to the album. Also, the single 's choice are really bad except lover (song) because they don't represent the album. I had a feeling that too much repetitive.
    Favorites: Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince, False God, Cruel Summer and I Think You Know

    This is my rank of Taylor’s albums so far:

    1st: Lover & 1989 (I can’t decide between them)
    2nd: Speak Now & reputation (I can’t decide between them as well)
    3rd: RED
    4th: Fearless
    5th: Self-Titled Album (“Taylor Swift”)

    I still don’t know about “folklore”. I have to listen to it more to decide where to put it, but it wouldn’t be in 1st or 2nd place.

    This album has some of the best songs in her discography such as Cornelia street and daylight, but also some of her worst such as ME!. ME! is a song I enjoy and like but its production is very childish but after watching miss Americana I understand why. This album is great, its messages and production + the lyrics (for most), make the album an amazing score of 9.5/10.

    This album makes you smile. It’s really first album which was written and sung Taylor Swift but it has so emotional songs too. But unfortunatly, the album doesn’t have true single. But it’s still good album.

    The aesthetic, the lyrics, the melodies. This album spread light and the only problem is doesn’t have a Katy Perry collab in daylight.

    Pay attention for, Cruel summer (that screams for a MV), daylight, cornelia street and The Man (YAS!)

    Vamos falar a verdade, Taylor conseguiu fazer com que todos nós nos sentíssemos tão apaixonados quanto ela. O Lover tem esse poder de identificação até em quem já está descrente do amor; a real é que todo mundo já errou, já acertou, já se decepcionou,

O Lover tem esse poder de identificação até em quem já está descrente do amor; a real é que todo mundo já errou, já acertou, já se decepcionou, já superou e já se sentiu acolhido alguma vez, mesmo que por pouco tempo e o album traz essa sensação de "instante duradouro" que tanto conhecemos. É confiante como um flerte, é seguro como inicio de relacionamento, é desenvolto como casamento e é maduro como um término. Libertador, ela está livre.

    Swift explodes the expectations of anyone preparing to call her music "diaristic," writing songs from different perspectives while putting her already-detailed work under a microscope. ...

    Taylor takes us through the phases of love and not only does she takes about the good stuff, she goes into the deep, hard to confess stuff about her current relationship. As always very transparent in her music and I love that she still has a "sharp pen and a thin skin and an open heart" ;)

    Looking though Swift’s last record we see a gigantic difference between reputation and lover, and i think this is amazing. In lover we can see a side knowled and deeper side of Taylor: the romantic. Kinda oblivious but Lover talks about the different types of love, passing through self love, no corresponded love and most true love. Taylor made a nice job in this record.

    Surprisingly good. The singles were not good, basic mediocre pop music. She tried too hard to have a hit. However, the album is great. Great production, lyricism and vocals. A lot of incredible tracks like cruel summer, the archer, cornelia street, death by a thousand cut,etc. The only problem is that the album is way too long and is not cohesive at all.

    Lover isn't just an album, it's a cultural reset. its a lifestyle, the oxygen u breathe, ur voice when u can't speak. its a gift from a loved one, a pat in the head, a warm hug. it sees u, it listens, and it loves u back. its what u can call, a home.

    Ms Swift snapped again. Lover is one of the most personal albums for Taylor. It is an album full of love in general such as the love we have for our partners, the love we have for our moms or our friends, which makes it very relatable album. She once again proves that she is still a great songwriter and can sing with such raw emotion in her voice. Lover could easily be another futureMs Swift snapped again.

    To sum it up a bulk of the album has fun and poppy production, bubbly hooks, but she also adds in mature and emotional themes. Btw cheerful Taylor is my favorite.

    It is unfortunately such an amazing album has Me! and YNTCD as first 2 singles. However, as the whole, the album more than what, as a Swiftie, I can ask for.

    Taylor Swift never disappoints. Lover embodies pop music almost flawlessly. Love, hope, friendship, and healing are the main themes of the record, and thanks to Swift's lyrical talent the listener can feel the singer's feelings and emotions directly and effortlessly.

    Lo amo con toda mi alma. Es de mis álbumes favoritos y sus canciones me transportan a lugares especiales. The Archer es mi fuerte compañía para mis grandes adversidades.

    You can't help be feel happy listening to this album. Lover marks the period where Taylor lets go of her past hurts and looks to a happy future.

As the first album that she owns the rights to, many people were ready and waiting to tear her down for any perceived "failure" to match the success of her previous albums, but Taylor does such a good job of staying true to what's always made her an incredible artist: well-crafted lyrics and being deeply in-touch with her emotions. And to those who claim Lover is her worst album--tell that to songs like Cruel Summer, Lover, Paper Rings, Cornelia Street, Death By a Thousand Cuts, Daylight....I could go on. Expand

    A fantastic new era of music for Taylor Swift. There is a shift to her style from her previous album and it works very well.

    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.
