    Incredibly excited about "Smile". It is a combination of all the best in the Katy Perry's universe. Not The End Of The World is a smash hit candidate. The sound and lyrics of this track are impeccable.

    Álbum maravilhoso. Sem defeitos, e o fato de os haters, saberem da boa pontuação estarem entrando só para deixar um 0 não torna o álbum ruim, nem de longe.
    Katy entregou sem prometer, era o que a gente pediu sim.

    i love katy and the album is cute, but what her fans are doing to lower the scores of other artists is horrible and a shame, poor katy to know that her fans behave in such a horrible way towards other feminine artists. when she spoke of it herself in the interview with zane lowe, they are childish and pathetic but i'm not going to put on their level, so here is your 10

    Es el mejor álbum de este año, cumplió más allá de mis expectativas. Me siento demasiado feliz porque al fin ella es feliz, con el mejor regalo que le dió la vida, su hermosa bebe Daisy Dove Bloom. Es un orgullo poder escuchar tan magníficas canciones. Mis favoritas Cry About It Later y Not the End of the Word. ❤️

    The album it's so good honestly, it deserved the best, champagne problems, NRO, CAIL, HIH and NTEOTW are one of the best in the album and possibly in her discography

    Without fleeting moments of bad taste, Perry does indeed sound mature, but she's also not quite as fun. That's a conscious choice, though. Smile is intended to evoke memories of her frivolous younger days while pointing toward a sustainable pop future.

    While Perry finds the occasional moment of quality here (Smile and Tucked both feel like the best possible music we could get from Katy Perry in 2020), Smile is an album searching for an identity—and when it fails, it falls back on lazy writing.

    Like Joanne before Chromatica, Smile plays like a necessary centering exercise, indulging her insecurities and less surefire instincts. If Witness was overdetermined, Smile is an earnest exhale, for better or for worse. It delivers an image of her journey towards inner peace that is honest (if corny) and catchy (if not exactly inventive).
