    This is the best album of Dua Lipa's career(at present).In fact, she is one of the most popular singers in the world at present. I mean, it is best pop album in recent years. I hope Dua will be a real DIVA.

    O álbum sem dúvidas é o melhor álbum de 2020, trazendo samples de músicas dos anos 80's, Dua Lipa consegue ser extremamente carismática e inovadora, não é atoa que para mim é o melhor álbum de 2020.

    no one did like her, she literally created a standard and aesthetic level for pop! while some other singers are still doing the same thing on album 5 Dua on album 2 has fabricated a new pop formula, she has the greatest potential to be our next pop princess she deserves it

    Dua Lipa at her best! The album contains a collection of great songs. In times of pandemic, the record comes as a good help to try to have fun and be distracted. In addition to the singles, "Hallucinate", "Levitating" and "Love Again" are the gems of the album.

    Um álbum incrível, no ano de 2020 que estávamos precisando de um pop realmente marcante Dua Lipa trouxe 'Physical', 'Don't Start Now', 'Hallucinate', 'Break My Heart' entre outras faixas impressionantes.

    Dua made one of the most surprising releases of 2020. In a time of isolation and illness, she brings a selection of tracks that make us want to dance and forget the problems that are in us. surrounding us. "Future Nostalgia" is an album that will mark for decades so that the next generations know the legacy that Dua Lipa continues to leave

    FN is one of the best pop records I've ever heard. Literally this album has 0 skips. The title really gives us the perfect explanation of what we can expect from the songs: pop-dance sounds that make us remember the 80's but also make us feel like we're dancing into the future. A cool and fun album.

    Con tres sencillos que resplandecen, Dua Lipa nos trae su mejor álbum hasta ahora. Una bomba dance que consolida su lugar como artista ascendente. El álbum trae pilares extremadamente fuertes que sostienen las pistas más débiles. ¿El error? la corta duración.
    Dua Lipa ha perfecccionado el ritmo pop de la nueva década.

    Future Nostalgia is totally cohesive and very well worked, one song complete and the other as a symphonic orgy. A Fituristic Pop mixed with Old Pop, a wonderful musical dance to hear. Strong points are "Levitating", "Don't Start Now" and "Hallucinate". "Love Again" is reminiscent of Madonna in the year 2006, a very well done song.

    Future Nostalgia is pop perfection, an energetic album whose production recalls past musical eras while still sounding as fresh and inventive as any present-day release. Dua Lipa has undergone the exact opposite of a sophomore slump, instead cementing herself as an industry tour de force.

    Highlights include 'Future Nostalgia,' 'Physical,' and 'Levitating'.

    Just as I had heard by many people, Dua Lipa’s second album, Future Nostalgia, was phenomenal. Her new sound with confident melodies, complicated basslines, and creativity with guitars and synths make a grand majority of Future Nostalgia’s songs a blast to listen to. Even the “extra” songs slapped onto the end with the “Moonlight Edition” can be really well done as well.

    I really wish I could have included my entire song-by-song commentary, but that would push my review past the character limit.

    Overall, I was extremely pleased by Dua Lipa’s most recent release. In pretty much every song, everything fit so well together despite each track being so loaded with complicated bass, synth, and guitar parts. I’m definitely a fan of this new sound from Dua Lipa and I really hope she releases another album very soon. Until then, I am more than happy listening to the many songs from Future Nostalgia that caught my attention. If you love pop and haven’t listened to all of Future Nostalgia, you absolutely should. Highlights: Future Nostalgia, Don’t Start Now, Cool, Physical, Levitating (both versions), Hallucinate, Love Again, Break My Heart, Boys Will Be Boys, Fever, We’re Good, Prisoner, If It Ain’t Me, and Un Día.    … Expand

    It's really good album. It's kinda like "Confessions on a Dance Floor" by Madonna, because it's pretty dancey album, and it got quite "worse" at the end.
    "Physical" and "Break My Heart" are the best songs on the album for me, they are dark and very addictive, and they have really great music videos!

    Future Nostalgia is an instant smash, an anthem to some people. Dua took what was the best of the 80s and early 90s and made it modern in the way we all wanted!
    The main single - Don't Start Now was the best possible era opener with a fresh, yet nostalgic beat and fun lyrics. The physical was an amazing followup and Break My Heart is a song you will like because it's simply an earworm!    Future Nostalgia is an instant smash, an anthem to some people.

    Future Nostalgia is carefree, euphoric, effortless, like a rush of dopamine to the brain. One of the best pop albums of the last 10 years for sure, probably the most exciting overall. The first 9 tracks flow perfectly, then Good In Bed simply doesn't match the vibe and production of the other tracks, dragging the mood down a bit, and Boys Will Be Boys is a jarring ending.

    Nostalgia's the right term with throwback sounds to the 90s, but updated and without going over the top. A couple of songs are a little clunky in terms of lyrics. While I also like her debut album quite a bit, this is definitely a step in the right direction. Overall the sound is great, it's fun, and definitely danceable all around. Favourite track is Levitating.

This is an integral record that talks about feelings, love, emotionality.each track of the album, namely, Cool, Levitating, Hallucinate, Love Again, Good in Bed, Boys Will Be Boys, has awesome arrangements, and the sample in Love Again gives him an impetus for further development. Pretty Please is the calmest song on the album. This composition gives us pleasure and a little rest after the explosive Physical, Don't Start Now and Levitating.
    In this album it is impossible to single out a really strong song, because each of them has its own originality and is worthy to become a new hit! Each song on the album has its own unique charm!

    A perfectly 80s esque coherent album that you just want to groove to. Definitely refreshing and exudes with such talent fro Dua Lipa and the producers for putting together my top contender for pop album of the year.

    Well producted, exciting and fresh. It’s smart because try to combine what the young like to listen and what people from others generations liked when trey were young. There is no bad song but some of them have different vibes so you may like some very much and don’t add in your playlist others. After all its a very dancing album with good lyrics and a lot of good surprises.

    Electrifying, Magnetic, Frenetically Dope!!! Dua Lipa’s mature is undeniable. This Girl knows what can come and shoots it in your face. She takes you a nostalgic pop disco impulse but grabs you by the neck and takes you up to her spaceship and doesn’t release you but beyond the middle of the album with a sensation of: let me out, but at the same time keep going.

    Dua Lipa’s sophomore album... an album I wasn’t expecting to be this good knocked my socks off. I think it’s a perfectly produced pop album. I do wish she would have given a little more on the vocals on two songs Hallucinate and Break My Heart. I’m also not a fan of the “rapping” (I suppose) on the opener, I would’ve rather she just sang that it.

    It's good, it's cohesive, it's not long, but it does lack some deeper cuts/more emotional parts. Some of the songs like 'Physical' and 'Good in bed' kinda just repeat themselves, but that can be overlooked because of the albums flawless production.

    This album was everything I expected from Dua Lipa. The three singles did full justice to the album and hyped me for more. All of the songs were dynamic, unique and full of innovative sounds. She experimented with something new and it turned out to be a huge success. I hope she gets the recognition she deserves for this masterpiece.

    DSN- a really good comeback this song is a really good fu to all the people that have hurt you in the past and i love the cowbell.10/10
    Cool- love the instruments and the sound in general her vocals sound so good. this song is very sensual and i am loving seeing this side of her.love the range of her voice. 9/10
    Physical- this song hypes me up when i’m in a bad mood and i love her accent and the whole production of the album is just so good. the harmonies in this song are so good.9/10
    Levitating- loving the whole space theme and i love the really fast katy perry never really over vibes. this song makes me feel like it’s meant for ur crush and i’m really feeling that right now.i absolutely love the bridge it is so good. sugaboo is now my favorite word. 9/10
    PP- can’t really understand what she is saying in the verse. the chorus is underwhelming . this is kinda giving me i forgot that you existed by taylor swift vibes. this song is also very sensual. the song progresses more as it goes on and gets better. i’m loving the whole cowbell theme of this album so far lol. this is definitely my least favorite song so far. 7/10
    Hallucinate- this song is giving me victorious by p!atd vibes. this song is very ethereal. love the mi mi mi mind part. love the accidental on the word hallucinate. this song overall is very 2000s and it’s very good but not her best song on the album. i feel like it will grow on me as i listen to it. the harmonies in this song are so good. 8/10
    LA- loving the strings already so quick this song has a different vibe than the rest of the songs. this song feels more sad but happy at the same time like i’ve never felt this emotion before . “but god damn you got me in love again “is such a good lyric. “my tears fell harder than the rain” that lyric is such a good one . the strings are just so beautiful. 9/10
    BMH- this song is so much better than i thought it was gonna be . the music video just adds a whole other level of goodness . i love the whole 80s inspired for the album. “am i falling in love with the one that could break my heart” this was literally me a month ago .love the adlibs and background vocals. 9/10
    GIB- this is giving me like 2012-2015 vibes . her voice has evolved so much since the last album. i don’t really like the bad bad bad bad bad part it just sounds a little off. i feel like i hear ariana grande vocals in there . i could be wrong but i swear that’s her. this song i feel like will definitely grow on me but i can’t tell if i like it. oop she really said they know how to f**k . 8/10
    BWBB - i am loving the sound of this song. this song is definitely a whole different vibe than the rest of this album. it’s the odd one out but it is so good. i absolutely love her little voice breaks. i love her tone in this song. boy will be boys but girls will be women i love this message about how this time is so nasty but girls are so much more mature than guys these days. and that’s coming from a guy lmao. 9/10 Summary: overall this was a great album and a great introduction to Dua Lipa to me .she really did serve on this album. So far this is the album of the year for me and will probably win many many many awards . This album gets a 87% for me . it was really good, as i said the songs will probably grown on me some more as i continue to listen to them. I am rounding up so it will show a 9/10 on here.    … Expand

    On one hand, I must say that It is a really upbeat and catchy album, so from this point of view it isn't that dissimilar from her debut album. On the other hand I find it to be far more mature and refined, making it almost a little masterpiece. As a matter of fact, I would have preferred more tracks and a little bit of variety, other than that it's a solid record.

    Dua Lipa, "Future Nostalgia" - Warner Records 2020

    Il "Ritorno al futuro" di Dua Lipa. Parte 1
    Qualcosa è cambiato, s'intuisce già dalla copertina del disco: lei arriva (dal passato? dalla luna?) al volante di un'auto retrò, con un look che combina elementi romantico/nostalgici ma con l'aria di sapere esattamente dove vuole andare; e lei, Dua, le idee le ha molto chiare: resta da scoprire dove vuole portarci.
    Mi salta subito all'occhio un requisito fondamentale per un disco che aspira ad essere importante: la durata. Tutti gli album veramente importanti nella storia della musica durano meno di 40 minuti: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (39 min.), Pet sound (36 min.), Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols (38:50), Are You Experienced (40 min.); con i suoi 37 min. e 17 sec. "Future Nostalgia" presenta ufficialmente la sua candidatura.
    Quindi ci troviamo per le mani un potenziale disco del mese? dell'anno? del secolo? Calma ragazzi: la durata "ragionevole" consente più ascolti, in breve tempo puoi farti un'idea, entrare meglio dentro il lavoro, cogliendo elementi che inizialmente non vedevi oppure ridimensionandone altri. Tuttavia questo è solo un requisito, poi ci vuole altro.
    Saltiamo a bordo e partiamo: un viaggio nel tempo lungo 11 brani (qualche "bonus" in più solo per alcuni mercati); ma anche un viaggio intorno al mondo, perchè il "veicolo" Dua Lipa non può misurarsi con dimensioni che siano meno del "planetario".
    Con la title-trak entriamo nel "futuro" musicale, immaginato da Dua Lipa con la complicità del "guru" californiano Jeff Bhasker che ne è anche il produttore; un futuro "prossimo" ma pur sempre futuro. Il brano è senza dubbio il più interessante, musicalmente parlando, di tutto l'album: base elettro-pop con ritmi sincopati che s'intrecciano su tempi composti, dove Dua dimostra versatilità e carisma nell'alternare un parlato quasi rap al canto. Testo ironico che sfida la dimensione "maschile", esibendo una consapevole posizione di forza.
    Curiosamente "profetico" il videoclip: storia di una relazione finita dove lei "parla" al suo ex accusandolo di non essere all'altezza, di non voler cambiare...
    In questo tempo triste, fatto di quarantene, di distanza forzosa tra le persone, vedere la nostra aggirarsi tutta sola dentro una casa grandiosa ma vuota, simbolo di una vita grandiosa ma vuota, produce un certo effetto di estraniamento: come essere naufraghi su un'isola tropicale deserta con in tasca il biglietto vincente della lotteria nazionale.
    A proposito di isole deserte; ieri sera mi rivedevo "Cast away" e pensavo a come sarà la vita dopo che avremo lasciato la nostra "isola": lui ha dovuto rinunciare a lei, perderla di nuovo e ricominciare una nuova vita in un mondo che non sembrerà più lo stesso, perchè lui non è più lo stesso; noi dovremo restare lontani due metri gli uni dagli altri, con una mascherina a coprirci metà della faccia e chissà per quanto tempo...
    Ne usciremo in un mondo cambiato, questo è certo, ma noi di quanto saremo cambiati? Sapremo considerare un cambiamento nelle nostre abitudini, consumi, scale di priorità, fino ad immaginare un cambiamento del nostro stesso modello di sviluppo?...
    Sarebbe ora di capire che la dobbiamo trattare un po' meglio questa palla di fango sparata nello spazio con noi sopra; è un rischio comunque e all'inizio sono dolori per tutti ma...
    "Continuare a respirare" dice Tom, continuare il viaggio, che non sai mai il domani dove ti porterà e forse, domani, potremmo riscoprire il valore profondo di un contatto fisico come una stretta di mano o un abbraccio.
    Continuo questo viaggio musicale e mi accorgo che non riesco ad immaginarlo se non di notte: tutti i brani evocano mondi notturni, milioni di piste da ballo, palestre, luoghi d'incontro dove la musica è elemento irrinunciabile; la luna stessa può diventare un'altra strobosfera che riflette i desideri, ne moltiplica l'intensità.
    A quei mondi Dua Lipa, dall'alto dei suoi 24 anni, appare come la nuova Dea della disco-pop music e con "Physical", altro vertice del disco, chiama il suo popolo per celebrare il mistero ed il fascino dell'eterno gioco dell'amore, della fisicità e, in definitiva, dell'essere giovani.
    Chi, come il sottoscritto, giovane lo è stato proprio negli anni '80 (quando Dua Lipa non era ancora nata) magari si ritroverà a pensare alla "spensieratezza" con la quale potevamo stare in bagno anche un'ora: a pettinarci i capelli allo specchio, mentre alla radio passano "Happy hour" degli Housemartins, prima di andare in discoteca, il sabato sera.
    E' quell'attesa, quel desiderio che precede il piacere, diventa il vero piacere; così aspettiamo: che finisca la quarantena, che torni l'estate, per andare ancora a ballare....(continua)    … Expand

    Make no mistake, her risks are still very within the context of a 4/4 pop structure, but she still finds such color and joy in her surroundings it's hard not to get swept up in her energy. Such risk-staking, however, can still lead to a few moments that could've used a bit more polish.
