    Her best album yet. Lover shows off her creativity and talent. She is an incredible lyricist and this album truly tells a story from start to finish. Well done, Tay.

    "Lover" is a one brilliant album!
    Taylor really went off with this album, compared to her 2017 record "reputation" which showed her edgier-side and fight amongst the media and the haters. This record showed the opposite; she showed growth as a person aswell as an artist, her being soooooo in-love with her current boyfriend "Joe Alwyn". This album in particular is a fun ride, with songs    "Lover" is a one brilliant album!

    Taylor’s new album is a representation of who she is. it’s very personal and meaningful to her, (see Soon You’ll Get Better) and is very different from her last studio album, reputation. The album is a message to her fans and everyone that the snakes are gone, the dark days are over, and she finally found her own happiness.

    Every album, the sound of her songs evolve and change. It has such great lyrics. It wasn't what I expected, but I'm thankful that that was the album; it became everything I wanted it to be. It grows on you each time you listen to it. And I can't stop listening to this album. Such a great one!

    You sincerely deserve to become the album of the year, beating records. Those who say that it is not good for clear envy that their idol does not make the beauty that Queen Swift does know is because they have no musical criteria.

    Lover is amazing in absolutely everything, in his criticism, his lyrics, feelings, musical bases and blows of effect.

    Sorry not sorry.

    This album is a lyrical masterpiece. She sings of true love and heartbreak on the same record. In "Lover" Taylor Swift bares her soul, and tells the love story of her and current boyfriend of three years, Joe Alwin, through several songs. You can find both meaningless pop music (ME! Ft. Brendon Urie) as well as 60's inspired pop (Paper Rings) and of course, the love ballad (Lover). This isThis album is a lyrical masterpiece. She sings of true love and heartbreak on the same record.

    Taylor Swift has once again proved to the world that she's one of the best songwriters of this generation! Lover's songs are filled with metaphors - subtle yet hitting hard - implying that her songwriting is definitely unique and magical like a storyteller's. It's her best album and best era yet! An inlove Taylor Swift surely is better than brokenhearted Taylor Swift.

    This album is a poor man's Lana Del Rey imitation. Taylor wants to resurrect old Taylor by stealing Lana's sound, but it just comes off as disingenuous and gimmicky. Her peak was 1989 and Scooter Braun is laughing all the way to the bank.

    Fallen in love with Lover. It has some of the best production as well as the high quality of lyrics that we have come to expect from Taylor. Whereas reputation showcases amazing production with a lower standard of lyricism, Lover provides some of her best work to date. I’ve had this on repeat all week, and I can see that continuing in the future. Taylor Swift has done it again.

    Her best album to date! The album features 80s synth sounds with complex lyrics, metaphors and mature song content.

    Lover is an album that shows Swift’s current phase in life and we’re all here for it. She has finally found love and is in her ‘happy place’ which is what this album is all about. Love. This album is also a lyrical masterpiece which comes as no surprise seeing as its from the lyrical genius herself, Taylor Swift. With an upbeat feminist anthem “The Man” and a subtle but very politicalLover is an album that shows Swift’s current phase in life and we’re all here for it. She has finally found love and is in her ‘happy place’ which is what this album is all about. Love. This album is also a lyrical masterpiece which comes as no surprise seeing as its from the lyrical genius herself, Taylor Swift. With an upbeat feminist anthem “The Man” and a subtle but very political “Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince”, this album has a lot to relate to the current society. It shows how far Swift has come in her life and that she is finally standing up for things that really matters. Swift’s current outspoken stand on LGBTQ rights is also changing the world one signature at a time. With a petition addressed to President Trump and The White House to pass the Equality Act, the Pride anthem “You Need To Calm Down” has been a celebrated track among the LGBTQ community. The raw emotions of “Soon You’ll Get Better” which she dedicates to her mom who is battling cancer, will have listeners bawling. In a nutshell,
    “Lover” is truly and amazing and inspiring album, and thank you to Taylor Swift for giving us such a masterpiece.    … Expand

    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.
