    It's a really personal album, we can see clearly that her voice is getting better and more versatile.
    In a 19 songs álbum it never got monotonous or boring

    Este álbum es una obra de ARTE y el que diga que no es Selenator y están enojados por que Selena no puede hacer lo mismo, ups.

    Undoubtedly Demi shows her best work. Deep songs. Her collaboration with Ariana Grande is the best on the album. Here we have the future winner of the best pop vocal album of the grammy.

    you get into her mind and heart but now it’s full of light congrats demi! can’t wait for the grammys next year!

    inspiring, raw and realistic. totally surgical and insightful on each track, in addition to making it clear that 'monogamy' is not your thing. honest and surreal in every way, more than necessary.

    I’ve been following Demi since her Cool For The Summer/Confident era. TMYLM is her best effort yet. Unfortunately this album really falls short. It’s a more mature, diverse approach but overall, nothing stands out. The track list is a mess, the album photo shoot is uninspiring and confusing (what is she wearing??). The album title is also way too long, just pick one or the other.

    Very amazing album! Might even say that it's her best work to date. Lovato proved once again why she is one of the best. Highly recommend listening to it. Good job Demi!

    Lovato has truly overstayed her welcome, at least in terms of putting out albums that move you. The vim and vigor which so characterized her early work is largely absent. It almost feels as if she's going through the motions - it's corporatized. I wish she's returned to that stripped down, essentially progression that she used to write in her early days.

    Cada faixa é única, as 3 primeiras são contem um significado bem forte. A divisão feita pela intro que logo depois apresentam faixas mais leves realmente nos mostra como se fosse uma trilha sonora

    Truth speaks the album and that alone shows how Demi catapulted it as one of the strongest albums of 2021! We're happy we got to see her growth and art of starting over after almost 4 years of no music!

She really take us on a journey, which starts with a distress call and ends with she finally finding peace and safety. Do not hesitate to give her the chance to tell you her true story. Expand

    Lovato's frankness is disarming, forcing a listener to reckon with the depths of the singer's distinction, yet the album works best when it veers toward lighter territory, letting the slick R&B rhythms and sugared hooks carry Lovato's emoting.

    Dancing With the Devil… The Art of Starting Over is Demi Lovato like we have never heard before. She is sassy and carefree while serious about her identity and personhood in a way she has been itching to be for years.

    The opening three tracks are almost an EP in their own right, before a quick reset. Semi title track ‘The Art Of Starting Over’ begins anew, a straight forward bop that gets to the root of Demi’s recovery – her natural talent, her ear for pop magic, affording room for personal renewal.
