    This album shows Selena's changes. From the first to the last track she keeps us involved on this masterpiece.
    Especially the tracks "Revival", "Hands to Myself", "Survivors" and "Perfect", my four favorites.

    This is Selena's best album to date - I have been listening to it since October and it has been on repeat ever since. The album has so far created hit after hit - Good For You, Same Old Love and Hands to Myself have all gone platinum. This really is Selena's Revival.

    There is pop formula here -- Gomez hires Swedish hitmaker Max Martin for crucial noises at the end of the lively "Hands to Myself," and songwriter-with-attitude-for-hire Charli XCX contributed her share of "Same Old Love" from a remote location.

But Gomez is appealingly desperate and hungry, and this quality transcends the most familiar-sounding material.

    In this masterpiece, Gomez finds her voice and shows who she really is. Even if it's very hard to name the best song of the album, I'll have to highlight the title track plus "Kill 'Em with Kindness", "Sober" and "Body Heart".

    o álbum ficou maravilhoso, as músicas são bem gostosas de ouvir, só por ter Me & The Rhythm esse álbum já merecia 10 no metascore... enfim, espero que a selena evolua mais ainda a cada álbum, porque esse é uma perfeita demonstração de crescimento, tanto vocal quanto qualidade

    The best album of 2015. Selena gave us new sounds that are amazing. Her vocals don't sound auto-tuned. It has Latin vibes, R&B, Pop and Gospel. Every song is different and every one has it own "magic". Highlights: Revival, Hands To Myself, Rise, Perfect, Sober & Body Heat.

    This is her best album lyrically and musically speaking. She clearly improved her vocals and turned into a really mature singer that can now reach new audiences. This is her truly self, this is her Revival.

    Honestly, I've never been much of a Selena fan. In the past I've found much of her music to be generic and not to my taste.
    However, after massively loving Good For You, Same Old Love, and Me & the Rhythm I decided to give the album a chance. Credit where credit is due, this may just be my album of the year. The album shows a whole new side to Selena - a mature, confident side that I hope

    I may have just been converted to a Selenator!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O album está bom e merecem destaques as faixas Revival, Kill em with kidness, Nobody, Perfect, Sober, Hands to myself, Camuflage, Survival... Na verdade todas as faixas são muito gostosas de ouvir, este album ta bastante diferente do outro que consegui ouvir que estava cheio de auto tune bem enjoado de se ouvir. Revival album é realmente algo profundo que me tocou parabéns a Selena Gomez por ter tido coragem de mostrar que ela não é uma máquina manipulada pela mídia e sim um ser humano com sentimentos que merece respeito! Para quem vim ler as criticas, as negativas não devem ser levada em conta, são tudo fãs de divas pops fazendo competição fútil para desvalorizar o trabalho suado da cantora. Expand

    Song for song, Revival rivals Carly Rae Jepsen's Emotion for breakout pop album of the year, but if it similarly falls short of greatness, it's due in large part to a lack of originality.

    There’s enough growth here to accept the occasional stumble. Revival, like ‘Good For You’, is a damn fine, hook-laden surprise. Selena Gomez has found a voice worth paying serious attention to.

    Revival is an audacious name for a 23-year-old singer's second album, but from start to finish, Gomez earns it. This is the sound of a newly empowered pop artist growing into her strengths like never before.
