    Cool, catchy, loud, danceable and smiling, Perry never disappoints and the smile era aims to be one of his best eras.

    When we think the things cannot be worst, Katy Perry release a new album. Witness it's a terrible background, but make sense with the moment of her life and just fails trying to be a growing up moment. Smile it's childish in a way you can not imagine and really sounds not good to the ears. I hope her pregnancy gives her life again and she can made something relatable to the public.

    Ella llego a demostrar que las críticas malas ya no la harán perder su sonrisa, es un álbum con mezclas de Prism, Teenage Dream, es un campo que ella sabe bien como dominar.

    El album es hermoso. Miss Perry dió al publico lo que quería, sin dejar a un lado su arte. El album nos da esperanza en un momento tan duro como lo es la pandemia. Esperemos salir de esto y poder escuchar joyas como CAIT y TE en las discos. Todas las canciones son tan buenas para escuchar en cualquier momento, es muy improbable que des un skip.
    Es lamentable ver como la "critica

    Es lamentable ver como la "critica profesional" no lo valoran y atacan a Katy comparandola con otras artistas.

    one of katy’s best albums if not her best
    Katy perry’s ‘Smile’ is all we’ve been asking for. It kinda feels like a time machine, taking us back to some of her greatest hits
    Smile , is in general, a mix of all Katy’s albums together

    This album is great, definitely one of her best albums, people just keep on hating her and her music because the internet says so, but these haters are giving praise to those trashy music nowadays with absolutely no content and no story at all.

    Альбом, который заставляет идти на верх и не плакать по пустякам, показывает настоящее перерождениие Кэти после Witness и глубокой депрессии...

    I don't know what problems the judges have with Katy Perry. She delivered everything in this album! Perfect lyrics, perfect songs and a breathtaking production (made by her) in this album. I think they have problems with her, not with the album (what should have been analyzed from the beginning). Katy made what she do best: music with ❤️

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    No Smile, Katy traz sua jornada sua jornada pessoal de uma forma dançante e inspiradora. As músicas contam uma narrativa de superação e contam com produções A+.

    her best álbum, expert critics have always needed someone to take down and since the release of the witness this person is Katy Perry, no matter how impeccable her work is always going to say that it is bad.

    Katy Perry just released the best pop album of the year (and probably the best of her career). Proving that the expert music critics are wrong, she can easily pleaser her own fans and makes them want more and more!
    You definitely can’t miss this album!

    Smile é um álbum simplesmente incrível!
    Perry conseguiu compilar 12 músicas maravilhosas numa obra que, sonoramente agrada qualquer tipo de ouvinte e, liricamente tem a possibilidade de inspirar e abrir um verdadeiro sorriso no rosto de quem se identifica com os temas abordados, de maneira explêndida, em cada faixa do álbum!
    Melhor álbum pop de 2020!

    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).
