    This is one of her best albums. It is really mellow and chill and light. If you were ever in LOVE you will understand this album and the vibe she went for. It's such an awesome album. Good job, literally new style for her, love how she keeps changing and evolving. Good Job Tay!

    The production was extremely high quality, the lyrics being some of the best she's ever written. Lover is the lovechild of 1989 and Speak Now and definitely lives up to her parents' excellence.

The lyrics on Lover are sickening, this is one of her best albums lyrically, the bridges on Lover are all incredible and are so well written and Taylor wrote every song on this album alone or with minimal help, showcasing her true talent in the songwriting field. All of the songs are single worthy,with this album having a lot of upbeat, positive and fun songs that make you want to dance. The beats and melody’s on this album are so catchy and perfect for pop music. In my opinion this is my personal favourite album from taylor since it has the lyrical content of Speak Now, the pure emotion of Red, the pop anthems like 1989, and the storytelling she is so well know for. Some of my favourite tracks are ‘Miss Americana & The HeartBreak Prince’, ‘London Boy’, ‘Afterglow’ and ‘Cruel Summer’. Although I love them all!… Expand

    An excellent album that explores love in all its complexity, going through the sad, hard moments and feelings to the good, relaxed and warm ones; therefore having eighteen tracks in which the artist uses very well to tell good stories, very well detailed and enriched with killing productions and vocals. Also the album only contain three songs more than Reputation, Swift’s album from 2017.

    After the release of the first two singles, there was a belief that there would be a lack of lyrical strength, but Taylor did not disappoint.

'Lover' has everything, flawless production, and ponderous lyrics. Taylor talks up and close to her fans once again, but she also has less dense songs where she simply has fun. From crying to 'Soon You'll Feel Better,' dancing to 'ME!' and trying to find my English lover in 'London Boy,' this is one of the most cohesive yet having each track being completely unique.

    The aesthetic of the album is entirely different from her last masterpiece 'Reputation.' 'Lover' is full of color and brightness that shines through every single track. There is also an 80s vibe that perfectly fits the aesthetic of the album. Being the longest album that Taylor has released, some fans were concerned about the existence of 'skip' songs, but the fact is that 'Lover' has no skips.

    'Lover' is just another proof of the talent and power that Taylor holds as a singer and songwriter. She writes her own rules and is the absolute queen of the music industry, having the highest number in physical sales and streams. The only fact is that Taylor's raw honesty has allowed creating a bond with her fans, who will guarantee her success.    … Expand

    This album is one her greatest work. After reclaiming her narrative from the public and media with reputation, Taylor Swift now has the strength and confidence to push herself to a more mature and, dare I say, in love phase in her life.

    Girl you have done it again, constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly. I’d say I’m surprised but I know who you are, I’ve seen it up close and personal. Girl you make me so proud and I love you.

    For Lover album, Swift is being over dramatic and true as she sings in the title track "Lover", which makes this album the most listener-friendly one.

    Lover is her most complete album to date, exploring every corner of love, loss and resilience. Taylor's lyricism shines as always, but the complex and clever melodies and production details are right there with it. It's sonically cohesive without being monotonous, tied together thematically without being repetitive, and utterly original. Congratulations Taylor, we're all so proud of you.

    I was lead by the ME! single but boy never judge an album by its lead single I guess. I especially love cruel summer and surprisingly I adore the lyrics to London Boy!! IFYE reminds me of a certain model friend.. I've been listening to the whole album since its release still couldn't memorised the lyrics.. So many words so many verses so many bridges lmao all in all I loveeee 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.
