Sep 10, 2021I have always been intrigued by Kacey Musgraves. She was penning songs for other stars before breaking out in her own path. Always top notch song writing that paints an incredible vision. I find her originally more of a country bent but now she is moving in a different direction. Justified is a great example on this album. A winner!
-
Sep 10, 2021Kacey's new album is cohesive yet adventurous, restrained yet compelling and idiosyncratic yet ambiguous and relatable. It is also a grower so give it time.

Oct 15, 2021Some of Kacey Musgraves' best work. The music here is raw and just an example of pure talent. The ups and downs of a breakup and she takes you on a journey, through the stages of grief after heartbreak. The vocals and arrangements are varied and top-level. Many of the lyrics really hit you in ways that are unexpected.

Sep 10, 2021Kacey Musgraves with her magnetic voice has put on a cohesive, moving, sad and well balanced record. I've already listened to it 4 times in a row and each time it gets better and better.
P.S. I was so moved by "easier said" -

Sep 10, 2021I can’t even pick out a favorite song but the album on the whole is amazing. As a 22 year old who’s never been married yet alone divorced I’m shocked this is my favorite of her albums but it’s just bangers after bangers. I can’t wait to see her live

-
Sep 10, 2021While definitely more melancholy than precious releases, Star Crossed remains cautiously optimistic in it’s conclusion. It’s stylistically eclectic but still features Kacey’s signature breezy, whimsical sound.

Oct 29, 2021She continues her streak, although it was almost expected that right after a masterpiece, it would not be that possible to release another one.
-
Oct 22, 2021This album is about the quieter moments of heartbreak: crying in the car, stumbling on an old photograph, when you get caught thinking about what you could have done differently. It is not a big melodramatic album, but her observations are deft in their exploration of how things just fall apart sometimes.
Awards & Rankings

Sep 21, 2021“Star-Crossed” is actually a less emotional experience than the blissed-out “Golden Hour,” which practically vibrated with feeling. ... Musgraves’ writing on “Star-Crossed” is squishier and more prone to cliché than on “Golden Hour” or her earlier albums.
-
UncutSep 17, 2021Musgraves' superpower is her ability to convey complex emotions via concise phrasing, which means quieter songs such as "Good Wife" and "If This Was A Movie" hit especially hard. [Nov 2021, p.30]
-
Sep 16, 2021It’s an album where she can be not so much “happy and sad at the same time” as heartsick, defiant, nostalgic, self-doubting, sassy, rueful and flatlining in the same divorce-court feedback loop. ... And one of the best things about “Star-Crossed” is its boldly weird but highly satisfying finale.
