    One of her absolute best!!! I can’t believe how good it is but I enjoyed it so much. From songs like Paper Rings and Cornelia street. AMAZING!

    i'm a fan of lana del rey and i feel so ashamed to see all the negative things other lana stans are commenting. i know, swifties did this too, they gave lana a bad score just because she isn't taylor. BUT CAN Y'ALL PLEASE STOP? lana and taylor like each other so why are the fandoms acting so extremely immature? just support each other, it's sad to see so much hate :((

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. AMAZING ALBUM I LIKE IT BETTER THAN HER PAST TWO ALBUMS. SOME OF MY FAVORITES ARE CRUEL SUMMER, THE MAN, LOVER, FALSE GOD, AND PAPER RINGS. THIS IS THE KIND OF MUSIC THE INDUSTRY IS LACKING. ITS GREAT FOR EVERYONE TOO. NO ONE IS DOING IT LIKE HER 13/10 WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND… Expand

    The album has a very nice production with amazing lyrical content. It is full of bops like “Creul Summer”, “London Boy” and much more. There’s a track with the title “Daylight” that sounds really beautiful. Swift did very well on this album once again, like always. Amazing.

    Creo que pudo haber sido mejor, pues algunas canciones si son muy rítmicas creo que solo destacan dos en todo el álbum

    The hybrid of the essence of her past albums. High level production like 1989, with the mood of Red, and story-telling lyrics as ever.

    Literally better than sliced bread. Swift’s lyrics are unparalleled in the world of pop music and she refuses to water down her ingenuity for the sake of a chart topping record--because she can get there without sacrificing what she’s time and time again proven to be the best in the industry at.

    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.
