    The album is so good, her vocals are amazing. I think WTFDIK is her best opening track ever. The collabs are amazing as well, the one with Billy Idol is my personal favorite.

    Is it her best album? It's great, and most importantly—gives the listeners what she promised since the lead single. What a great work! Her voice is amazing, it's never been so beautiful. Wow!

    This album is a true work of art and as you listen to the songs, Miley proves (once again) that she is a chameleon artist.

    This has to be one of the best albums of the year, and definitely Miley’s best one. It took me through an emotional ride - her vocals, the lyrics, the music! Gorgeous.

    Despite the fact that many wanted to sabotage her premiere time, miley showed that she can give us music as versatile as her image and we don't have to be very clever to realize that she only needs a microphone with her magnificent voice to silence the mouths of many.

    tudo encaixou perfeitamente, sabe?!. pra mim ela se mostrou muito versátil quando ouvi os covers heart of glass e até mesmo why’d you only call me when you’re high, esses particularmente foram pra mim a prova que ela tinha e TEM muito potencial pro gênero. that’s the good stuff !

    De longe um dos melhores álbuns da carreira. Tratando-se de Miley Cyrus, eu não esperava por algo ruim, mas é surpreendentemente bom: a honestidade, a sensualidade, o talento, a emoção, as parcerias, a aclamação da crítica e de outros fandons que não o seu. Todo o respeito, apoio e reconhecimento que Miley vem recebendo são merecidos. Ela é versátil. Ela sempre se renova. Uns e outrosDe longe um dos melhores álbuns da carreira.

    She really did a great job, and from my personal opinion, I haven't enjoyed a Miley album since she released Bangerz.

    I don't think critics are looking at this album and taking it for what it is, but they are listening with some sort of expectation of what it should sound like, so that's unfortunate.

Miley's writing on this album - I haven't heard something so honest in a long time, the way she dives deep and is just so transparent with who she is. That's very inspiring and I think that should add a great value to this album. It's so cohesive sonically and with the lyrics - it's out of this world experience. When it comes to the production, I'm not a specialist - but I'm a music lover, for many years I was into different genres - and this album just sounds so impressive, there's are some incredible effects and the way she uses her voice as a tool is just great. It deserves so much praise - and I wish people approached it with no opinion or expectation already made. With hard competition this year and some amazing female albums released - for me she really delivered an incredible piece of work. And I hope it will be recognized.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was in middle school when Miley first rose to the public eye on Hannah Montana. I'm 26 now so you can say I grew up with her music. I've been a casual fan ever since. When I stumbled on her Heart Of Glass cover something changed. This woman was made for the kind of music she's creating now! After going on a Youtube rabbit hole and finding not only a lot of music from her I didn't know until now and started to appreciate, I also found out she's actually been doing rock covers since her Can't Be Tamed days, when she was still on Disney, which is kind of wild if you think about it. I strongly believe she truly found her sound with this record. It not only shows how strong her voice actually is, but also her songwriting skills, best showcased on the track Angels like You. The amount of pain she experienced in the last couple of years are put into art in such a beautiful and emotional way. The production of every song is simply incredible, you can tell how much blood, sweat and tears were put into it, not only by her, but all of the producers and writers. Vocally it's the best she's ever sound, so much soul, you can feel and believe every word she's singing. The way she turned her pain into such an amazing body of work is just so mesmerizing to witness as a listener, or better yet, as an official fan now. Also, there's not a single song on this record that makes me want to press the skip button, which nowadays is very rare, considering a lot of artists don't make true albums anymore, and more of a compilation of quick number one singles for radio that everyone forgets about in a couple of months. She shows she's beyond that fase now, owning her artistic freedom by delivering one of the best (if not the best, too soon to tell yet) albums of 2020. How many of her peers can say they have Billy Idol, Joan Jett or Stevie Nicks (my favorite artist of all time) on the same record? I believe this album will serve as a way to people that are more used to mainly pop music and haven't experienced with other sounds as a first step towards exposing themselves to other kinds of music, which is such a great feeling, discovering other stuff you also connect with that you never though you would. It's very hard as of now to choose my standout tracks but right now my top 5 is WTF Do I Know, Angels Like You, Night Crawling, Plastic Hearts and High. WTF do I know is the perfect album opener, the aggressiveness grabs you by the ear, almost literally, and keeps you craving more. Plastic Hearts is just very honest and unapologetic. She knows what she wants and isn't afraid to own it. Angels Like You shows her best as a songwriter. It's about her divorce and it's as heartbreaking as it is beautiful. The crescendo at the end makes me very emotional every time I listen. Prisoner is probably the most comercial/pop song on the record, which isn't by any means a bad thing. Miley and Dua compliment each other incredibly well, it sounds like a true duet, their chemistry is just great. Also the bass on this, I believe it's Andrew Watt playing it, who also produced the majority of the record, deserves a shout out because it really improves the song to a whole other level. Gimme what I want is classic Miley, she does whatever and whenever she wants. It shows how confident and independent she is in her skin and as a woman in general. Nigh Crawling! My mouth dropped the first time I heard it. Billy Idol shows how much of an icon he still his and takes the song, as Dua on Prisoner, to another level. Such an odd combination, yet it's literally perfect. It sounds like vampires on a night out on Halloween. Midnight Sky and that subtle yet essencial Edge of Seventeen sample never gets old. Very relatable song, super well produced, it represents the theme of the album quite well, not surprising it was the 1st single. High is stunning. Miley and Mark Ronson did everything right on this. I hope they collab more in the future because it's a musical match made in heaven. Hate Me is another great moment on this record where she wonders what would happen if she died. Missing that somebody but knowing they don't miss you, very relatable and heartbreaking, once again. Bad Karma. Joan Jett. Such a sexy song about admitting you're a cheater. What and odd yet amazing concept. The moans throughout the song give it that extra edge. Never be me is another brutal honest moment. She knows how the situation will end yet she can't be someone she isn't. Lastly Golden G String, a more laid back and acoustic moment, serving as a good album closer. The songwriting style reminds me of her stuff on Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz in the way it's very autobiographical "I was tryin' to own my power/Still I'm tryin' to work it out/And at least it gives the paper somethin' they can write".
    In conclusion, Miley turned me into a fan with this record and I can't wait to see what''s next for her. Also, it's time to stop judging her for her past and recognize her incredible talent.    … Expand

    Despite the unnecessary concessions to conventionality, Plastic Hearts still manages to reveal even more layers to Cyrus’ ever-expanding musical palette, proving she can take on whatever genre she desires and give it her own unique sense of flair.

    If only Plastic Hearts followed Midnight Sky’s lead, we’d have an album of disco-rock that felt true to Cyrus’ strengths.
