    this album has so many different kind of songs. she’s got sad songs and sassy songs. i love the features on the album too. i think the production on this album is much better on this album than on her first. her vocals are also really great.

    A true masterpiece, even better than her debut album, and a sonically diverse and balanced mix of upbeat and slow songs.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. You can see that Camila Cabello improved so much since she released her debut album 'Camila'. One of my favorites songs has to be 'first man' whre she talks about her father and how he showed her what it's to be love and how to love someone else. It was just the perfect finish to an intense world of romance. Expand

    The melodies and production of this album are incredible... but the most enthralling part is the vulnerability in the lyrics and the emotions that you feel as she sings those words.

    Excelente album, representa de manera perfecta las formas del amor y del romance, pasando por diferentes etapas; desde una separación hasta el amor incondicional de padre e hija, lleno de diferentes emociones.

    Conceito super original do que vemos atualmente na música pop. Arte de encher os olhos, músicas cheias de sentimento e originalidade, às quais Camila acrescenta como cereja do bolo sua linda e inconfundível voz. Sem dúvida um dos melhores álbuns do ano.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When I heard the first songs released I was expecting some stuff so much different from ‘CAMILA’ (even thought I won’t like it as I did love the 1st one). But I was completely wrong. Romance got tears in my eyes, euphoria on my heart and Camila just proved me the talented superstar she is. Should’ve Said It is one of my fave songs, it’s catchy, funny and the latin vibes made me think “WHY THE F* I WASN’T THE LEAD SINGLE??”. Bad Kind of Butterflies got me impressed and I HAVE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE THIS LOVE!!! THIS SONG AND THE ALBUM DESERVES A GRAMMY. Expand

    Absolutely 0 skips, every little detail on used to this is a 10/10, like the trolley noises in the beginning referenced to san francisco, the clock ticking when she says “it’s gonna take me a minute” and the sound of the drink pouring & glasses clinking at “no i never did like tequila but there’s something bout when i see ya, think i need a drink”

    Romance showcases all of Camila's growth, both lyrically and sonically.
    Used To This is a gem production-wise, Should've Said It an uptempo latin-driven hit and First Man the emotional highlight of the album.

    This album is one of the best this year without even being biased. It really shows her growth as an artist and songwriter and I hope it gets the recognition it deserves. Also it’s obvious that all the negative reviews are from hater from Stan Twitter.

    Como artista, Camila não deixa de me surpreender. Eu amo absolutamente tudo que ela faz pelo simples fato dela ser tão trabalhadora e colocar todo a sua visão sobre aquilo em que ela acredita. Com 'Camila' ela mostrou um lado também pessoal, mas ainda assim com uns pés atrás para que você realmente viesse a se identificar tanto com suas musicas e composições. Acho que o maior goal dessaComo artista, Camila não deixa de me surpreender. Eu amo absolutamente tudo que ela faz pelo simples fato dela ser tão trabalhadora e colocar todo a sua visão sobre aquilo em que ela acredita. Com 'Camila' ela mostrou um lado também pessoal, mas ainda assim com uns pés atrás para que você realmente viesse a se identificar tanto com suas musicas e composições. Acho que o maior goal dessa era e desse álbum é o fato dela conseguir colocar tantos detalhes nas suas musicas que é como se estivéssemos conversando com a nossa melhor amiga de como é gostar daquele garoto, como foi o primeiro encontro e como é se apaixonar pela primeira vez. Ela acabar o álbum como "first man" que é sobre o pai dela foi a melhor forma de acabar o álbum com chave de ouro.
    Acho lindo o seu crescimento e amadurecimento como artista, escritora, produtora e principalmente como pessoa. Espero que todos que escutem esse álbum tenham alguém como referência para tanto se identificar com as musicas como para ter como "modelo" de alguém que deve fazer nosso coração palpitar. Simplesmente perfeito!

    Cabello’s willingness to assist in [the music industry’s embrace of the “Latin” sound] caricature elsewhere distracts from the otherwise interesting Spanish-classical and Santana-esque riffs on Romance.

    Throughout “Romance,” the pop machinery clicks cleverly and efficiently into place around Cabello’s voice. The productions tend to be sparse — spooky electronic sounds, an occasional acoustic or electric guitar, hefty but discreet drums — and even where the choruses ratchet up, Cabello’s voice often stays close and confiding.

    Romance is a solid, sexually charged sophomore entry that places growth at center-stage and keeps us wanting more without going limp.
