    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. katy perry is perfect for pop music she is made to be successful. Although these last few years have had a bad time, they have given us excellent music and none is the exception. But most of the public I hate it, I really don't understand it !! I disrespect perry. The album has a good concept, some great songs that are really worth listening to a thousand times and of course it is perfect, unlike Wittness it does not bring much more catchy songs that are not easy to forget. For me Katy deserves all the unconditional love. She has never given us something to hate her. If you don't have anything good to say to the great perry. Then shut your mouth. She doesn't disrespect anyone because those who criticize to hurt her are **** in the head.… Expand

    O álbum mais bem produzido sonoricamente da Katy! As músicas tem batidas descontraídas, contagiantes e que vão crescendo durante o decorrer da música, cry about it later é a melhor!

    O álbum é ótimo, mostra o lado emocional de uma Katy Perry mais madura.

    O álbum tem melodias dançantes, porém, tristes ao mesmo tempo.

    Katy Perry serviu música pop nesse seu novo trabalho

    The bubblegum pop sweetheart is back at her lane again with a hit after hit anthemic tracks that brings back her Smile. Having an astounding 4 trilogies about Therapy, Recovery, Happiness and True Love, from “losing her self-control” to “there it is, Katheryn”. Katy, herself make sure that during the world’s dilemma she will turn our frown upside-down.

    Smile can be split into four acts of; Therapy, Recovery, Happiness and Love - each act has its own standout tracks and they all blend so well together. Smile isn't necessarily sonically coherent - each track definitely has its own sound - but, lyrically, it's some of Katy's best work.

    Smile has been curated over the course of two years, beginning when Katy was at her lowest point and    Smile can be split into four acts of; Therapy, Recovery, Happiness and Love - each act has its own standout tracks and they all blend so well together.

    Smile has been curated over the course of two years, beginning when Katy was at her lowest point and rather than shy away from that, she lets us in to the battles she's faced with the public eye and her mental health and I couldn't be more thankful for that brutal honesty.

    Katy described Smile as a split between Teenage Dream and PRISM and that becomes most apparent in tracks like Tucked and Only Love, but she also tries new avenues of 'pop' with stand-out tracks Cry About It Later, Not the End of the World and one of her best tracks to date, Never Really Over.    … Expand

    SMiLE. Un disco bailable, vulnerable en sus acusticos y fantastico. Te transporta como fan a una felicidad unica.. sus sonidos fuera de lo que acostumbeaba hacer, encajan perfectamente como CHAMPAGNE PROBLEMS, TEARY EYES o WHAT MAKES A WOMAN. Su trabajo es increible, diria que es su SEGUNDO mejor trabajo.

    Katy Perry's one of the biggest names of the Pop Industry, and she's back with the new album Smile, exploring again all the sweet and powerfull Fresh Summer Pop! The last album, Witness, showed to us a part most mature and darker of Katy Perry, and we should be thankfull to this era, cuz the rejection made this Album be trully melancholy and stronger!
    There's a interesting division on the    Katy Perry's one of the biggest names of the Pop Industry, and she's back with the new album Smile, exploring again all the sweet and powerfull Fresh Summer Pop! The last album, Witness, showed to us a part most mature and darker of Katy Perry, and we should be thankfull to this era, cuz the rejection made this Album be trully melancholy and stronger!
    There's a interesting division on the tracklist, starting with a single and after 2 exclusive songs. Separating from this cicle, we have 4 different parts, showing a great evolution in the lyrics! Never Really Over, Cry About It Later and Teary Eyes are exactly when she felt rejected when the world didn't wanted to witness her and just had to 'keep on dancing', the tone of her voice in the track 2 its melancholy, meaning to me like she's saying to herself 'Don't cry Now, You'll have to enjoy!'
    Daisies, Resilient and 'NTEOTW' show her fighting agains the sadness and the rejection, finally understanding what's really matters for her. Smile, Champagne Problems and Tucked is a big evolution on the storyline cuz she finally knew what's important for her and finally find again her smile!
    The last part with Harleys In Hawaii, Only Love and What Makes A Woman, she finally show that she is Katheryn, and that's this process made she a most Powerful Woman!
    The first 6 tracks are my favorites, we can see the same Katy Perry from Witness, but she's lost in the Dark! But when she got back to smile, I see a new Katy Perry, that remind me the best part of her career, but most Interesting!

    It's not her best album, but its her most mature and the most attractive album since Teenage Dream to keep hearing on repeat!    … Expand

    This album gives me strength to live. Thank you, Katy Perry, for everything; you brought my smile back. And ‘Not the End of the World’ is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard in my life.

    O álbum trás uma perspectiva melancólica e ao mesmo tempo te faz sair da sua zona de conforto para algo nunca ouvido ; A Katy perry seguiu os gostos musicais e os ritmos de cada época , trazendo esse álbum surpreendente.

    Un álbum lleno de arte, me atrevería a decir que es de los mejores materiales que han sacado en el año, Katy literalmente nos trajo una sonrisa de nuevo.

    She has been able to reinvent herself after Witness which was not on top with an interesting work. First 3 tracks are absolute bangers, very dancy, very pop. Only love, with her gospel influence is an absolute masterpiece, maybe one of her best songs in the entire career.

    Without fleeting moments of bad taste, Perry does indeed sound mature, but she's also not quite as fun. That's a conscious choice, though. Smile is intended to evoke memories of her frivolous younger days while pointing toward a sustainable pop future.

    While Perry finds the occasional moment of quality here (Smile and Tucked both feel like the best possible music we could get from Katy Perry in 2020), Smile is an album searching for an identity—and when it fails, it falls back on lazy writing.

    Like Joanne before Chromatica, Smile plays like a necessary centering exercise, indulging her insecurities and less surefire instincts. If Witness was overdetermined, Smile is an earnest exhale, for better or for worse. It delivers an image of her journey towards inner peace that is honest (if corny) and catchy (if not exactly inventive).
