    Just I expected more I don't like this album, just 4 o 5 songs, Demi's voice is really strong but sometimes is boring, DEMIbis much better than this, she is desesperate for a grammy just I DON't LIKE IT

    this album is a **** mess of what's wrong with music today. every song is the exact same. and she probably doesn't write her own music, yet it still manages to be this pile.

    Demi's voice is great, but I just don't understand why does she needs to scream so much. It bothers me. Some of the songs from confident are really great but she still has a lot of work to do. She could've improved so much more!

    I expected this, a really basic album with good 5 songs, Kingdom Come is really good, Father, For You, Cool for the Summer and Mr. Hughes are the good unique songs, the rest is just baaad

    I think Confident could be way better that this, Demi sounds confusing about which direction she should go as an artist and she sounds great but not true to what she's singing. The vocal performance is gaudy and too stagy, the songs doesn't sound original, Mr. Hughes instrumental sounds like Britney's Baby One More Time, Kingdom Come sounds like a better version of Iggy's Black Widow andI think Confident could be way better that this, Demi sounds confusing about which direction she should go as an artist and she sounds great but not true to what she's singing.

It's a good but not true job. Expand

    Demi is growing as an artist, but she's trying to hard to sound like every pop song on the radio which ruined it for me. I felt like I was listening to the same song over and over again.

    I expected so much more. She isn't doing anything we haven't heard before. In my opinion it seems like she feels the need of oversing all the notes. No album will top Here we go again.

    Repleto de canciones olvidables y aburridas, Confident no es el mejor álbum que Demi Lovato haya lanzado en su carrera. La única canción que se destaca y genera emoción es "Father", el resto de las canciones son tan insulsas que ni merecen ser mencionadas.

    "Cool For The Summer" was a perfect kick off for the album, while songs like "Yes", "For You" or "Stars" doesn't fit with her sound and the whole album concept. This is not the sound Demi should be following, and i hope she is stil finding herself.

    Em "Confident" Demi Lovato força uma confiança que ela não tem, não adianta ela dizer que se encontrou na música pois "Confident" prova o contrário, tente novamente Demi.

    This is not the best Demi can give us, actually, this album is even worse than 'DEMI'. I felt like someone was screaming in my ears. I've expected more than gererical lyrics and melodies. Waiting for the day when she'll realise that her best work is "Here We Go Again" and go back to her good "Old Ways".

    Her singles are carbon copies of Katy Perry; no originality. Although they are catchy and I wouldn't mind bopping to them in the car, there is no real versatility in her music. The same old, same old. Nothing will honestly beat her sophomore album, Here We Go Again. Disappointed. Some may say her vocals are what shapes the album as a whole, but there's no different range.

    What a messy album. Cool For The Summer is completely boring, Confident is okay and she destroyed a beautiful song like Stone Cold yelling that much. Demi has an awesome voice, but sometimes it doesn't work in this album. Kingdom Come and Old Ways are just like the other boring pop songs you listen to on the radio all the time. She can do better than that.

    Confident is the same thing as the her album DEMI , there were no changes. It has only a few good songs and the rest sounds like songs discarded by artist who did not want to repetitive music and without any content. Overall, it's a pretty bad record.

    I was really looking forward to this album but I've got to say that I'm very disappointed. It's a massive step down in quality from her previous work.

    Are people being serious right now? This album is horrific. It's DRIPPING with auto tune and EDM. It's like she listened to every successful pop song out now and copied them. Generic doesn't even begin to describe this mess. In addition to that it's just a worse version of her last album DEMI. She thinks she deserves a Grammy for this "music"? This doesn't even deserve a nomination. It'sAre people being serious right now? This album is horrific. It's DRIPPING with auto tune and EDM.

She thinks she deserves a Grammy for this "music"? This doesn't even deserve a nomination. It's embarrassing. She really needs to go back to where she started with music. There's no passion in this album at all. It al sounds the same. Just because Demi has great vocals doesn't mean she can just put out crappy music. People need to open their eyes and ears a little. Never thought I'd see the day that Demi Lovato became mainstream bubblegum pop and Selena Gomez actually put soul and heart into a well done pop album. The world really is changing and it's not in favor of Lovato. Expand

    Muito ruim. Salvo três musicas. Coll For The Summer, Old Ways e Yes. Não é nem haterismo, é porque é ruim mesmo, muita gritaria e pouca qualidade. Prefiro mil vezes o Unbroken.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I hate to say this about demi, but this album is kind of awful. The album was hugely hyped by showing demi's new body, her confidence and two great singles, but the album fails to achieve the main aim of this album: a good and confident album. A midtempo album that sounds as everything that has been done these 3 last years. She sounds uncomfortable in most of the jams. However, the production is kinda clean. Expand

    Me gusta Lionheart, Wildfire y Kingdome Come, pero las demás canciones parecen tratar de imitar un top 40 hits del 2013-2014. La mayoría de canciones son genéricas y no veo la diferencia entre este álbum y DEMI (2013). No parece haber cambiado nada.

    I can't believe she waited so long to release something like this album: it's a crazy mix of a lot of things that doesn't even express a little bit of the emotion that she used to do.
    I really think she deserves a Grammy, but not yet, not with this album - DEMI and Unbroken are way better than this one. It's just one more album to my collection, but just because there are 3 or 4 songs

    Instead of this disaster, her voice still sounds amazing. Thanks Demi, but I won't hear your music this year - I was hoping a big mastepiece, but I "think you made your greatest mistake!"

К сожалению это был не удачный опыт для мисс Ловато. и пожалуйста, кто-нибудь научите ее пользоваться ее голосом.

    More of a hits compilation than an album. Feels dated and repulsive at times such as on "old ways". This album it's really worth your attention.

    Lixoh. Nem consegui ouvir o álbum todo de tão ruim que é. Não tem nem como um álbum ter nota boa quando se tem featuring com a Iggy Azalea. Ficou bem abaixo do Revival da Selena, assim como o desempenho nas paradas de sucesso.

    Demi Lovato's fifth studio LP is the album she was born to make: a brassy, sleek, dynamic pop production that lets her powerful voice soar to new emotional highs.

    Lovato mistakes the ability to cram as many syllables as possible into each word with virtuosity. And the album likewise mistakes overwrought for confident.

    Too often equating emotion with shouting (see the final third of Father), Confident doesn’t quite elevate Lovato to where she needs to be.
