    This album is the perfect example of: concept, cohesion and quality, running away from any generic album, the Smile album presents authenticity! Most importantly, it connects with whoever listens and conveys your message. Who has never had to put a smile on their face to not show their pain and their problems to other people?

You literally having a SMILE on your face after hearing those 12 tracks without any skip in any song. The struggle of Katy in the past is what makes this album a perfection one. The way she executed the lines, vocals and every emotions that she puts in every single is beyond expectation . Katy Perry once said that "No Hate, Just Love" and that WHAT MAKES A WOMAN to her. It's like driving a car in the middle of the night with light atmosphere that gives meaningful in your journey, or riding a HARLEYS IN A HAWAII with those winds that comes from a breeze, fascinating. You can say that maybe this album is ONLY LOVE and not throwing any negative content, just pure love. You know the feeling of breaking down and not feeling okay with yourself but after you heard this album you can surely tell to yourself that maybe it is NOT THE END OF THE WORLD and we can CRY ABOUT IT LATER cause we are stronger than we thought. You can see your reflection with those TEARY EYES, the hardships, falling short and not measuring up, you can say that it is a really tough thing but who cares? ans who knows? Do not TUCKED your pass underneath your soul but let your past be part of who you are because trust me, it will make sense at the end. The background story of your CHAMPAGNE PROBLEMS are just a headache in the past , the smell of every DAISIES are just like a fragrance to your present, and the building blocks that you will turn in the future soon will makes you RESILIENT. Your mistakes, your past, heartaches, disappointments, rejection and negativity, Listen to this Album called Smile by Katy Perry and tell them that this isn't over, NEVER REALLY OVER.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's the best album Katy has delivered until now. She did not just put some songs in a random order, she's giving us a journey to reach healing and happiness, she deserves a 10 from all of us, rather you are a fan or not.… Expand

    Dopo il suo quarto album Witness, prodotto validissimo ma poco apprezzato a causa della sperimentazione troppo eccessiva, Katy torna a quello che sa fare meglio, servire un pop fresco e genuino. L'album è pieno di brani che facilmente possono avere il profumo di hit. Si passa dal genere disco, con Cry About it Later, una delle tracce spiccanti dell'album, a brani personali e acoustic, comeDopo il suo quarto album Witness, prodotto validissimo ma poco apprezzato a causa della sperimentazione troppo eccessiva, Katy torna a quello che sa fare meglio, servire un pop fresco e genuino.

    Unico punto debole? Forse la canzone Smile doveva essere scartata un po' come Harleys in Hawaii, brano fresco e innovativo ma non nel contesto.    … Expand

    A album full of great songs, not a single one is boring or bad. And i think all of them could be a single. Great job Katy!

    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).
