    Lover has those feeling that are ever hard to tell, but easy to write and speacially Taylor who loves put the whole heart at the moment of writing down her everyday feelings and memories.
    When u go through the whole stuff, u'll realize how much she's in love. I make contrast of years ago and it's notorious she found the one she was looking for afyer so many heartbreaks. Happy to see her

Happy to see her growing up as a singer, woman and an artist. She deserves everything she has. Lover absolutely will sound different from their albums behind her legacy. But the songwriting here is truly a masterpiece. Fascinating

    An exciting album, full of love, hopes and a positive vision regarding the present and the future. I don't think they are many songs to express what it is to love. No, each tells a fragment of Taylor Swift's feelings. Without a doubt, one of his best works, and a breath of fresh air to get out of the mutism and pain in which we immerse ourselves with reputation.

    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.

    Just beautiful. The Guardian ranked Lover with 60 because "it's too long"... I'm speechless. They also ranked an album (better than Lover) made by a male with 20 tracks with a higher rank than Lover. They didn't even called the album "too long." Men privilege. This isn't fair.

    Lover is by far Taylor's best album, it takes you perfectly to places you've never been and makes you desire a relationship that is painted as Gold. Out of the 18 songs I can say that, cruel summer, London boy, Cornelia street, daylight, the archer, lover, soon you'll get better, and afterglow are the best tunes on the album. Congratulations Taylor, lover deserves all the world's success.

    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.
