    Damn!!
    This album express how Taylor's feeling, she's in love, she's in life, she's human expressing the best side in her live. This album is as Red, 1989 and speak now had been a baby.

    A really great album. She covers all the bases and experiments with new subject matter and different sounds. I am a sucker for the sax in the False God. I enjoyed the growl in cruel summer. Soon you’ll get better made me sad. My favorite songs are Cornelia Street, Afterglow and False God.

    The best part of the album is the lyrically, how she found the love against everything that happened to her. “You are what you love”

    She’s done it again a lyrical masterpiece. Everyone is fast to judge based on the singles but the album it’s self has so much depth and love.

    It's one of her best albums yet! Every song is so beautiful and the lyrics are amazing. Production of the album is as good as always. It's full of metaphors and references. It has songs dealing with homophobia, sexism and hate. Overall the album is a masterpiece

    Her best album since Red. A rollercoaster of emotions. Amazing lyrics (as usual with her) and delightful production. Props to Jack Antonoff once again, lately I'm always finding him in my fav albums.
    Taylor is saving pop music

    The album is deep and sweet, but some songs are tiring to listen complete. Taylor it's absolutely one of the most big names in industry today. Great job, but not perfect.

    Com o Lover, Taylor deixa de lado as intrigas do álbum anterior e segue numa longa jornada de 18 faixas que refletem no amor em suas diferentes vertentes. O amor romântico aparece de forma frequente, mas não oculta o amor maternal e o medo da perda na brilhante "Soon You'll Get Better" ou a narrativa pura de "It's Nice To Have A Friend". Lover é bem escrito e igualmente bem produzido;Com o Lover, Taylor deixa de lado as intrigas do álbum anterior e segue numa longa jornada de 18 faixas que refletem no amor em suas diferentes vertentes.

    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.
