    Many people will think this is an overated album. Actually, this deserves more than that. I didn't love reputation when it was out. But, we can see Lover which is totally different from reputation. We can see the old Taylor in this album. So, Taylor is still being herself.

    The album doesn't fail to give you a dreamy feeling of finding the one for the first time. Lyrics are deep as can be heard in songs like "Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince", "The Archer" and "Lover". I highly recommend this album to everyone who's looking for some romantic music.

    Some says her lyrics of her songs in her 7th album, Lover, are basics. It is. But the emotions are there. You don't need to have flashy lyrics to be catchy. Swift herself prove it. One of the best albums of 2019. Don't fight with me.

    um album pop perfeito, era esse o album que a gente queria que a taylor tivesse feito depois do 1989 é muito mais a cara dela.
    Cornelia Street, Daylight, Cruel Summer e The Archer são as musicas mais perfeitas.
    I Think He Knows e Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince tambem são ótimas e muito viciantes e gostosas de ouvir assim como todo o album que ficou excelente!

    An album by Taylor, for Taylor. She has never been so unapologetically herself. In her new album she explores the romanticism of revenge, heartbreak, redemption, fear, and of course...love. It is exactly what we wanted from Taylor, an album that reminds us to push through the darkness, find yourself, and learn to love. Swifties, and the world, couldn’t ask for a better message. Bravo, Taylor!

Um álbum sem muita força do que essa artista tem, as suas primeiras 6 músicas são muito 'arrastadas', não tem nenhum ponto alto, a faixa 7 "Miss Americana & The Heartbrak Prince" dá uma esperança de continuar a ouvir o álbum e ser constantemente bom e fluir como seu 4º e 5º álbuns de estúdio, porém a faixa subsequente decai novamente, na minha avaliação, achei que "afterglow" e "you need to calm down" são faixas contagiantes e que chamam a atenção do ouvinte, o restante é bastante morno, infelizmente ela vem decaindo do 1989 para cá!… Expand

    A beautiful album, she snapped. She’s so in love and this album clearly shows that, she’s happy and so are we because we got an amazing album

    personally, one of the best albumb by her, NO POLEMICS AND NO SHADES. Taylor Swift being real Taylor Swift, i love it, its kinda of too long and tiring but its okay, highlights for me its the archer, cruel summer, you need to calm down and soon you'll get better.

    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.
