    Non sono un fan di Katy Perry, conosco solo le sue hits del passato eppure questo album mi ha fatto innamorare al primo ascolto, e pensare che la stessa cose è successa per Dua Lipa con Future Nostalgia, che invece oggi mi ha deluso con quella sottospecie di remix. Speriamo la Perry possa tornare in cima alle classiche, magari con la giusta scelta di singoli e contenuti più validi.

    Katy Perry is back with new pop bible! ‘Smile’ is full of bops & potential hits. Cry About It later, Tucked & Only Love — are the best new tracks. Simply the greatest album of this new decade!

    Álbum coerente, alegre, SORRIDENTE! Infelizmente essa tal "mídia crítica especializada" criou vários caminhos e situações pra detonar a Katy, que fez tudo nessa quarentena e ainda mais GESTANTE! Esses lixos criaram essa rixa com a Perry desde Teenage Dreams e felizmente É O ÁLBUM MAIS VENDIDO NA HISTÓRIA DOS EUA, COM VÁRIAS PLATUNA E ESSES LIXOS NÃO ACEITAM TANTO TALENTO...

    She has returned, matured and stronger than ever, smile is one of Katy Perry's most complete albums, her music calms me down but at the same time it excites me, it is a heap of emotions, good emotions and I will never stop listening to it.

    Com certeza um dos melhores álbuns da carreira da Katy, se não o melhor. Ela conseguiu transmitir tudo que ela queria dizer utilizando uma sonoridade muito bem desenvolvida. Algumas músicas te fazem dançar e pular por todo lugar, outras trazem uma vibe trap arrepiante e outras são pra ouvir calminho no seu lugar. Simplesmente o Smile traz uma experiência completa.

    She doesn't need validation from the critics anymore, and it shows on this album, where she finds herself more free than EVER. Sonically it's a good pop album full of upbeat songs to dance while crying. 10/10.

    She is back! And the outstanding album was worth the wait! It has many happy tracks about Katy getting her smile back, then also tracks about what she went through during the witness era. And she also put a reference to one of her older albums in one of the songs!

    An album than not only offers a bunch of catchy pop/disco tunes, but also tells the journey that Katy Perry herself made for getting out of clinical depression and "finding her Smile" again. A work that needs to be respected in any way

    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).
