    Cobra virando borboletas é o que mostra o clipe de ME! que se enxaixa perfeitamente com o que acontece com Taylor após a era REPUTATION. Lover é doce, bonito e triste.

    More profound than the pink cover lead you to think, this album touches from pure pop to jazz to country, all while exploring the shades of love. Beautiful.

    Imperdonable lo que hizo Taylor con este álbum, excepto los singles no hay por donde coger el resto del disco. Viniendo de una era como reputation y pese a que ya era hora de que sacara algo de este estilo, se queda muy atrás del nivel pop que traía con los anteriores.

    I really think this beautiful album contains some of Taylor's most amazing songs but it lost some of the deserved recognition due to the lead single ME!, which is the most uninspired song from the album. This is, however, a great album.

    This album makes you smile. It’s really first album which was written and sung Taylor Swift but it has so emotional songs too. But unfortunatly, the album doesn’t have true single. But it’s still good album.

    Lover is a good album with actual songs that I liked but some tracks are really forgettable and brings nothing to the album. Also, the single 's choice are really bad except lover (song) because they don't represent the album. I had a feeling that too much repetitive.
    Favorites: Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince, False God, Cruel Summer and I Think You Know

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. this album feels like a rainbow after a storm. it’s fun, sad, sexy and empowering all at the same time. she talked about politics, how it feels to be a woman in a male dominated industry, supported the LGBT community, being in-love and so much more! it’s such a comfort album very lovely.

    Another solid album from Taylor but doesn't quite match up to Reputation in my opinion. The man however may be my favorite Taylor Swift song of all time.

    It’s not her best album but definitely not worst. The songs are really good and the sounds are really fresh

    I think this is probably her weakest album. Some songs sounds so childish and not uplifting or happy songs as they probably thought they would sound.

    Don't let the lead singles wrong you!
    This album is incredible with some of her best work such as Lover, Miss Americana & The heartbreak prince and many more. Wrong choice with lead singles but overall EXCELLENT album.

    Awesome album - loved every minute of it except Me - definitly Taylors writing style and back to her older ways but you can tell she has grown up and kept the good edgier parts of reputation!!!!

    This album brings such a beautiful cohesive sound while also experimenting with very different musical avenues. A colorful but mature pop sound that already feels like a classic.

    En este álbum Taylor nos hace ver como es ella realmente, una persona feliz, divertida, romántica, delicada, sencilla. Un álbum pop para todos Desde ME! que me hizo darme cuenta que no hay nadie como yo, amo este álbum, y sobretodo la canción Lover que es una de las más lindas de toda la carrera de Taylor.

    Going from happy, shiny pop like Paper Rings to breathtakingly tragic Soon You'll Get Better is something that Swift does flawlessly time and time again.

    I can't get over from this song, this is getting addicted.
    What I liked the most in this song is the calmness and lyrics too.

    I love Taylor but between the absolute masterpieces of reputation and folklore this one seems a little more forgettable even though still great. I like that she has some more political songs this time like Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Price, The Man and You Need To Calm Down. As always her songwriting was on point but the production seems like it is lacking something and there are aI love Taylor but between the absolute masterpieces of reputation and folklore this one seems a little more forgettable even though still great.

    She needs to grow now. The songs, the production and the musicality are so boring.

    What a wonderful album Lover is! Every song is magic in its own way and while ME is not my personal favorite the rest of the songs definitely make up for it.

    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.
