    I love this record. It seems like Katy Perry can truly be herself in this era after such a difficult time after Witness. I had problems and found it really hard to deal with that mess in the past so I can feel the empathy. I can say SMILE is my non-skip playlist, which Teenage Dream and Prism can't be. Each song is a story about re-finding yourself, get your smile back after somethingI love this record.

Las canciones son hermosas Never Really Over,Cry About It Later,Daisies,Resilient,Not the End Of The Word y Only Love es lo mas destacado. Su frescura y alegría me encantaron. Un hermoso album sin lugar a dudas. No entuendo por que los critucos fueron ta irrazonables al momenti de criticar.… Expand

    "Smile" by Katy Perry - Review:

    A Katy Perry foi tão sincera em compartilhar os momentos mais sombrios nas letras de cada faixa, e como a sua filha mudou a sua vida, tirando-a do fundo do poço. A faixa Smile é a transição de todos os seus sentimentos. #Smile é um álbum coeso, dançante e dou destaque as baladas, como Teary Eyes. Minha faixa de maior destaque vai para "Not The End Of    "Smile" by Katy Perry - Review:

A faixa Smile é a transição de todos os seus sentimentos. #Smile é um álbum coeso, dançante e dou destaque as baladas, como Teary Eyes.

    Minha faixa de maior destaque vai para "Not The End Of The World" que sem dúvidas, eu escolheria como próximo single para divulgação do álbum. A música é uma grande aposta para as pistas de danças, a PONTE é o maior destaque da música. Sem falar da letra, que é um maior deboche da Katy, em questão de críticas que ela recebe.

    Sinceramente? O SMILE é o melhor álbum lançado neste ano! Me sinto grato de tá ouvindo um álbum sincero e extremamente importante, para uma artista como Katy Perry.

    This album is pop perfection, she brought happiness to these dark times we living right now, smile is an album of happiness, where you can dance and level those endorphins up, an album thats tells you everything you’re going through will make you stronger. I love it because of those dark times she had, she came with a bright smile, a bright album and a little baby girl Daisy. KATY **** PERRY

    Esse foi o melhor disco lançado este ano ele nos trás uma energia para nos superamos essa pandemia e também é diferente dos outros discos que são lançados no pop atualmente que formas apenas musicas passageiras este álbum traz sim varias musicas atemporais que levar um sentimento de felicidade e animo.

    Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, showstopper, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it.

    A very good álbum. It is proof that Perry can always do good pop and that you should not trust the singles, because here the álbum tracks are what stands out the most.

    Amazing personal and fun album , she put some great lyrics on it, its also a great dancing album.

    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).
