    Taylor proves once again that she is the lyricist of this generation! I’m honestly speechless, her art continues to be inspiring, relatable, touching and timeless.

    Going from Reputation to Lover shows the range in which Taylor Swift can write music. So many people look for something to nitpick within her work - it’s too dark, it’s too light, to poppy, too whatever bull **** they can come up with.

    Lover is the culmination of Taylor Swift’s story so far. It is self-referential in a non-obnoxious way. It completes storylines, it fixes past wrongs, etc. Lots of current and soon-to-be future hits, lots of incredible production from Swift, Antonoff and crew. Recommended listens: “I Think He Knows,” “Miss Americana” and “Afterglow.”

    Not just the best pop album I’ve heard in a while, the best album. Highlights being, Miss Americana and the heartbreak prince, Cornelia street, London boy, the man and soon you’ll get better.

It is undeniable that the songs on this album are divergent from each other and at the same time, stuck together in an incredibly produced knot.

    Eu acompanho a Taylor há 5 anos, sendo "Lover" a minha terceira era com ela. Acompanhei uma das piores fases da Taylor, e por isso sei o quanto é gratificante ver ela tão feliz e com o amor que ela sempre almejou encontrar. Ela merece tudo de bom nesse mundo. Eu te amo, princesa.

    This album is just so good it contains some of my very favorite song from her. My top 3 are Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince, False God and I think He Knows. I think he knows remind me of song from Carly Rae Jepsen's dedicated album. False God is a whole different work I've heard from her, the production of this song is insane with the very good lyrics writing, also the way she singThis album is just so good it contains some of my very favorite song from her. My top 3 are Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince, False God and I think He Knows. I think he knows remind me of song from Carly Rae Jepsen's dedicated album. False God is a whole different work I've heard from her, the production of this song is insane with the very good lyrics writing, also the way she sing it and the saxophone make the song a very sexy one and it's a whole new feelings I've feel from her, and this song just prove us that she can also produces and sing an R&B genre song also. And when it's come to Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince, this song is just superior, nothing can describe how good is this song, this is one of her best so in my opinion the production is good the lyrics is on point, the way she sing it is just well, I'm really amaze that I can listen a song like this from her, just wow.… Expand

    It's flawless. Ms. Swift did it again. She keeps proving why she's the greatest songwriter of our generation, even though she's already done enough to earn this title throughout the last 13 years of such a brilliant career.

    Com certeza é o melhor álbum da Taylor até agora. Um álbum pro apaixonados, que podem dedicar quase todas as músicas pro seu Lover, e para os solteiros que acreditam que o amor ainda é possível. Taylor está em uma fase linda, não adianta dar hate pra diva da pure sales. O flop é só na cabeça dos Araianators que não aguentam o sucesso da Taylor.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sophistic lyrics and taking us down a road we’ve never truly gone before. We get to see the vulnerability and heart of Taylor Swift and nothing has ever been as beautiful.… 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.
