    Greatly disappointing. You'll only love this album if you are a Taylor swift stan, what gets 100 from critics isn't the music in this album but the person who made the music and the online craze surrounding her. If this album was released by another artists, both scores would've been different. The music is mid, you're too busy finding connecting between the songs and Swifts life to see it.

    There are few catchy tunes but does not really add value to the TS discography. So sad this is the most popular album. Evermore was better in every way. Even Lover (album) was better. Cruel Summer and Lover (song) blows all the songs from Midnights out of the water. A truly disappointing album.

    While I once enjoyed Taylor Swift's pop albums, her latest release falls disappointingly short in comparison. This recent offering feels lackluster and leaves much to be desired.

    Un escupitajo y falta de respeto a la música. Música cliché y demasiado cringe para una señora mayor de 30 años.

    If her Lover album is 4/10, this is 1/10. Midnights has no real music, no production , no melody and no good lyrics. It has nothing good. Same old stories since her beginning, kitchen , pocket etc etc.Same old melody since Lover. Nearly all songs are the same and you can't remember which is which.The only song memorable and notbad song is Would've Should've Could've thing. ıf this albumIf her Lover album is 4/10, this is 1/10.

Taylor you should quit or get rid of Jack and Aaron. Both are talentless. This album is the most overrated thing I have ever listened in my life. Waste of money, sad for her fans that bought lots of copies of this CD. Fans, please don't exaggerate it anymore.

    Vigilante thing is copy of Lorde royals    … Expand

    Same old Taylor swift, nothing new. Her lack of growth is very apparent on this album and when she tried to do something “different” on a song like vigilante **** she completely fell flat on her face. I’m just wondering how she could have such weak songwriting on her 10th album. Let’s hope for some more inspiring work from ms swift in this future.

    With a lot of autotune, her entire album sounds the same and boring. Since she can never keep a man for more than two business days, every song she sings is a breakup song.

    La medianoche, un concepto tan poderoso e interesante desaprovechado y arruinado por este álbum.

    Terrible and BORING as usual, no good vocals and overall one of the worst albums of all time. Massive downgrade, she’s been in her flop era and hasn’t had a single good album. Overall boring, terrible production, horrible autotune, lazy lyricism, and pure TRASH. She shouldn’t have dated min0rs and built like a tayble, horrible nasty woman.

    Very, very generic and lacks life, like most of Taylor Swift’s music and albums, unfortunately. Don’t have a clue how it charted like it did, except for the fact that most of the public prefer flat, mainstream music and aren’t open to changing/expanding their view of artists out there.

    Disgusting. Worst album of 2022. Only Snow on the beach was good, because Lana Del Rey did some charity work. And helped her write a good song for once.

    Lack of development throughout the album. Only liked the opening track "Lavender Haze" which is ironic because Zoe Kravtiz co-wrote it showing Taylor needs to actually work with black women more for good quality songs! Everything after Lavender Haze got boring and snoozefesty. Majority of the album tracks sounded the same with no texture. Her 3am tracks sounded a lot better than what isLack of development throughout the album.

    La excelencia musical por parte de la PhD Taylor, con sus sonidos y letras talladas como poemas, siempre dando lo mejor para todos.

    Taylor just proved how basic she is. If you listen to her discography, you’ll never know which album the song is from because everything sounds exactly the same, never changes. And the fact that she insists on bringing up one hundred different versions of the same song is really annoying.

    HORRIBLE SOBREVALORADO

    Me aparece todo el tiempo hasta en la sopa, hasta que me decidí a escucharlo (ya que no está sonando ni en la radio, lo cual me sorprende, ya que ha estado todo el álbum acaparando el top 10 de las listas) y pues nada, nuevo, es la misma Taylor que el último material. Nada arriesgado, pero sí muy sobrevalorado. En pocas palabras: un producto más que demuestra que el    HORRIBLE SOBREVALORADO

    Taylor's worst album by a long shot. lyrically it's nothing special for her standards and the additional songs go against the album concept but the biggest disappointment is the production, the songs sound extremely unpolished.

    I listened a couple of times to try for it to grow on me but it failed. Theres nothing new about this album. Taylor is recycling the same themes as before. We get it you are petty, unbelievable petty and unable to get pass things. Get over it.

    It allows Swift to do what she has always wanted: make an album for its own sake that is received primarily as a work of art instead of a commercial entity or tabloid fodder.

    It is very good. ... There are no major missteps within the album, although not everything works as well as the album’s brightest spots.

    While her 10th album doesn’t make instant classic status like 1989, and Evermore and Folklore remain her masterpieces, it is still an understated, beguiling look into the mind of one of the biggest pop stars of our age.
