    Taylor pegou um pouquinho de cada album anterior e adicionou uma nova forma de pensar muito "perfeita" ao meu ver.

    The whole album is beautiful. Swift just turn 'reputation' on (like lights) and she created 'Lover'. This is probably her best album.

    Just when i thought Taylor couldn’t get any better, she releases Lover. I believe it wouldn’t be exaggerating to call this her best album and a pop masterpiece. Please check it out, you really wont regret it!

    An absolutely stunning body of work that is her most mature to date. Lyrically and sonically pleasing

    Absolutely amazing. The album is so versatile yet sonically cohesive. Each track is there for a reason and the album definitely doesn't disappoint. My favorites are Cruel Summer, Cornelia Street, London Boy, and It's Nice to Have a Friend.

    her best album yet!!!!!! This eighteen tracked ep has some of the most amazing and important lyrics, production, sounds, and names. Miss Americana and the heartbreak prince is of course my favorite

    A beautiful album with dreamy layers and a new level lyricism for Taylor. Political songs such as “Miss Americana and the Heart Break Prince” and “The Man” are executed perfectly with bold meanings and artful presentations. Although the name “Lover” implies happiness, “Death by a Thousand Cuts,” “False God,” “Soon You’ll Get Better,” present the ugly side to what should be a perfect world.A beautiful album with dreamy layers and a new level lyricism for Taylor.

    Esse album foi pior do que eu esperava , a taylor swift prescisa de uma mudança de ritmos ta tudo muito igual

    Lover parece mesclar a Taylor no country antigamente e hj no pop. O álbum parece ser tudo que ela queria fazer desde que pisou no mundo pop. Mas acho que não é tão grandioso quanto 1989. Mas é uma briga boa entre Lover e Rep pra ver quem tem a melhor Taylor.

    Her best album production wise and lyrically very good as well. At first I was scared because of songs like ME! and You Need To Calm Down but they happen to find their place once they’re into the body of work. The album explore a lot of genres and subgenres, the topics discussed in this album are also very different. We can go from a heartbreaking country ballad with soon you’ll get betterHer best album production wise and lyrically very good as well. At first I was scared because of songs like ME! and You Need To Calm Down but they happen to find their place once they’re into the body of work. The album explore a lot of genres and subgenres, the topics discussed in this album are also very different. We can go from a heartbreaking country ballad with soon you’ll get better to a neo soul inspired track about sex, false god, from a political song with Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince and its groundbreaking production to a fun rock song about love, Paper rings. The genres and topics in this album not only show Taylor’s growth as an artist, but as a person too. Would 100% recommend Expand

    This album is absolutely incredible. I've had it on repeat since it came out and I fall in love with it all over again every time I hear it. I'm blown away... probably my favorite since Speak Now/Red. So proud of Taylor for sharing this incredible piece of her beautiful soul.

    I’m so happy Taylor has found happiness, it resonates within every track. Lover encompasses what Taylor is capable of and I’ve been listening to it nonstop

    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.
