    ruim como tudo que essa k-dela se propõe a fazer, não é pq pariu que tem que hitar, Grammy e hot100 não tem assento preferencial. Parece que o Sorriso amarelou

    É um álbum que lembra muito do pop antigo mas com tanta novidade e a perfeita voz e composição de Katy

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. the album was very good, there was a balance between sad and happy songs, it had a nice mixtures of lyrics, meaningful and fun lyrics to make us feel happy, vocally the album was very good especially with daisies ( both studio and acoustic versions). Harley's in hawaii had a very chill vibe to it and i wished it was om the radio because it would have a made a great summer chilling vibe, cry about it later and not the end of the world are both very good songs. idk how to explain music but i absolutely adore the album. just because there are bad reviews doesnt mean its not good, people didnt bother giving the album a chance to shine.

    Un álbum poco conciso, que deja entrever las dificultades que tuvo Katy para su creación, así como la indecisión de su equipo por elegir los sencillos apropiadamente, cosa que no se veía desde ARTPOP, aunque sin ser ambicioso, experimental y polémico.

    Amo este álbum realmente ayudará a muchas personas a volver a creer en si mismos y recuperar esa esencia que se había desvanecido por algún dolor del alma.

    THIS DEFINITELY SAVED 2020. Thank you, Ms. Katy Perry for this masterpiece. You are a wonderful artist and I'm sorry that people keep paying you dust, sweetie. THIS ALBUM HAS NO SKIPS AND PEOPLE SHOULD STOP SLEEPING ON MISS PERRY. AND THAT'S ON PERIOD.

    This indeed bops as only Katy can deliver as usual. When Katy makes music, you'll know what to expect. She knows the kind of music she likes to share to the world, and she makes it happen every time. Way to go Mom Katy. Congrats on your baby!

    After the iconic Teenage Dream, Smile is the best Katy Perry's album. Personally, I do not skip any song. All of them are AMAZING. So mature, so cured and so new. It is a new Katy.

    Em minha humilde opinião, Katy trouxe algo muito além do pop atual, onde mostra algo totalmente intimo e maduro. um dos melhores álbuns de 2020. Incrível trabalho espero que seja reconhecido.

    Contrived and uninspired. She has no idea what she’s aiming for as an artist anymore, so she delivered old navy back to school pop in a pandemic.

    Very good album to awaken such little hope during this year! It was made for people to be happy. Katy Perry always helping. Great songs. And specialized criticism, who is it?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Minha nota específica é 8,3; álbum subestimado; ela evoluiu pós-Prism, desde Witness ficou óbvio que critícas maliciosas e risíveis foram propositais. Ressalto sua composição intíma e matura sobre ficar bem consigo, sobretudo, suas linhas criativas e sutís. Vocalmente suave, forte e confessional; Só há falhas nos instrumentais como no meio do disco, mas, nada que impeça audiência de sentir os ares leves, as lágrimas, e o sorriso de Katy. Expand

    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).
