    I think it's the best album in this year so far. Cry About It Later, Never Really Over and Only Love are my favs. What Makes A Woman slaps too. I'm glad she's back.

    She is the best and deserves all the love in the world! It’s so far one of her best albuns, mainly because she has just given birth to a beautiful baby, and for the time we are living, it definitely fulfills the role of bringing a smile back.

    "Smile" is a splendid, wonderful, magnificent pop album full of quality.
    With songs that make your skin crawl.
    Without a doubt one of the best Katy Perry albums.

    Absolutely gorgeous and it leaves a dream-like feeling. It represents the healing Katy has been through and it is brilliant and touching. The atmospheric sound makes you feel like you're floating on sunset clouds.

    Owls are medium level. It contains many topics that are considered expendable or we can say that they are repeated and do not remain in the memory

    Great album it was a 9.5 yesterday. The swiftie base got made it had a better rating that folklore so they wanted to sabotage this score. It’s fine it just shows the scum that is the Taylor swift fan base. I mean they threaten to kill critics who give her albums low scores. It’s crazy that Taylor hasn’t come out and told her base to stop doing that.

    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).
