    Coeso mesmo com 18 músicas! Taylor Swift prova, mais uma vez, ser a artista da década trazendo um álbum colorido, divertido, amoroso e futuro AOTY (dá vontade né, @reputation?!).

    um album pop perfeito, era esse o album que a gente queria que a taylor tivesse feito depois do 1989 é muito mais a cara dela.
    Cornelia Street, Daylight, Cruel Summer e The Archer são as musicas mais perfeitas.
    I Think He Knows e Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince tambem são ótimas e muito viciantes e gostosas de ouvir assim como todo o album que ficou excelente!

    Cuando nadie creía que Taylor podría crear un álbum igual de artístico que RED, llega con Lover a demostrar lo equivocados que estábamos.

    POP PERFECTION!!! This album didn't disappoint. She brought back classic pop or 90s/00s pop. The energy and emotions she put in singing every songs are on point. I love the lyrics and I love how she tells her story through wonderful songs. This is the pop version of RED, but more about love instead of heartbreaks. The production is also excellent. I'll give it a 10.

    She brought back what made “1989” one of the greatest albums of this decade, and to make it even better, the lyrics are “Red” quality. Fans are not disappointed and general public will enjoy just as much!

    The definition of pop perfection. Swift does it once again and proves that she’s the best at what she does, some people love her, other hate her but there’s no doubt that this album takes her to a whole new level of greatness and, every single song is a hit, Thanks Taylor Swift for proving there’s still hope for pop music.

    Swift never goes out of her style. She still makes good albums with strong pop songs like "The Man", "Miss Americana&Heartbreaker Prince" or "Cruel Summer". By the way, the album is too long (18 songs). Some songs sound the same and there is no any progress in these songs since "Red" or "1989" (Paper Rings, London Boy). But it's still a good pop-romantic album to listen.

    I even don’t wanna know that I should to write about this album, because after listening in my mixed feelings. That is bad, but good I’m these moments where Taylor remembered about her country beginning (sound like Speak Now). But pop part... excuse me, Taylor, boy even reputation better than this.

    Com a chegada de "Lover", o sétimo álbum da carreira de Taylor Swift traz uma nova abordagem sobre músicas que falam sobre amor. Em sua nova fase, Taylor sai de uma fase "dark" da era Reputation e volta às origens com batidas que lembram o country mas sem perder a magia do pop. Simplesmente maravilhoso. Sem defeitos.

    Just listened to the new album by Taylor #Lover and to be honest i'm disappointed.
    After tough and dark sound 'reputation' it sounds really boring. Exactly album has some bops and potential hits like 'Cruel Summer', 'Miss Americana' & 'The Man' but i expected for something bigger.

    This feels like a downgrade from reputation. It has some good moments, but falls flat quickly. The album is monotonous and long to a point where some songs are straight up fillers. It lacks the pop perfection essence of 1989.

    Even the bright spots in the album’s composition—the off-beat piano cascades in “Death By A Thousand Cuts” and the pulsating synth of “Cruel Summer” hat Taylor seems like she’s never been better. She’s unburdened by love, and that explosive happiness makes itself present across this record.

    Taylor continues to innovate in her country-pop crossover. To me, 'Lover' is better than '1989'. Definitely one of the best Swift records. The lead single doesn't seem to blend in w/ the whole album. Taylor proves that she is still pure gold without any Max Martin productions.

You need to Calm down is the definition of queer baiting especially dyeing your hair the bisexual flag when you aren’t bisexual. That’s inappropriate. Afterglow is a wannabe deep track that gets it lyrics from a tumblr post by a woman named Sharon who runs a soccer moms club.And I’m really sorry ME! didn’t make the cut for the trolls movie :( It’s nice to have a friend has a literal children’s choir which is probably why it’s the best on the album.

    Sometimes complicated and deep, sometimes simple and direct, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, but always honest and meaningful. This is true for love, and this is true for Taylor Swift's Lover.

    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.
