    Es un sonido muy fresco y muy acorde a la voz de Demi, la cual se muestra de una manera espectacular y su amplio rango vocal abarcando notas graves hasta las mas alta, Tell Me You Love Me es su trabajo mas completo y sincero.

    Demi Lovato comes back better than ever on this record. It accomplishes what her previous efforts haven't: this is a great transition to a more mature music career. It doesn't feel forced and she's finally found her true sound. She's always released personal songs but this time it feels 100% honest. This is her most cohesive body of work released so far.

    Demi Lovato just released her most cohesive album to date. It is also her best album in her career, both lyrically and from the point of view of sound. If the Recording Academy (Grammys) had an eye on her, after this album they will pay even more attention to her and maybe give her a Grammy.

    This album is amazing. It is one of her bests. Great production and lyrics. Each so song has a special and personal meaning. You can just tell by much the lyrics mean to her, just by the sound of her voice.

    Maybe this is the best Lovato's album so far. You can tell by the different way of sounds and production because there are songs like You don't do it for me anymore, Tell me you love me and Ruin the friendship that will catch you with that good vocals and R&B/soul vibes. However we have catchy pop/dance songs like Sexy Dirty Love & Games.
    All songs are pretty good. Favorites like

    All songs are pretty good. Favorites like Hitchhiker, Cry Baby, and all of them.
    My last vote says 9.5.. going to 10 on metacritic.

    This album is brings Lovato to a whole new level in her artistry as a musician. She is more honest than ever, and harmonizes her way through a fresh new RnB pop sound that seems to work in her favor. This was the album that she was born to make and I hope she chooses to stick with this sound in her future endeavors.

    Her best album .... powerful vocals ♥ Eu não estava esperando um album tão poderoso como esse, a capa deixou muito a desejar mas tudo isso foi compensado com as músicas. Lonely e You Don't Do It For Me Anymore são as masterpieces do álbum

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Demi has outdone herself again! Finally finding her voice in the R&B/Soul genre, Demi not only sounds pure and amazing (as she always does), but blend the sound with her meaningful and powerful lyrics and you have an album that is timeless and legendary. From tracks like Daddy Issues, which is an EDM/Pop gem about being in relationships with men who resemble her estranged father to R&B bops like Ruin the Friendship, Only Forever, and Lonely that talk about getting out of the friend zone, waiting for that friend to acknowledge these feelings, and then feeling better off without that person, to R&B/Gospel/Soul tracks like Tell Me You Love Me, You Don't Do It For Me Anymore, Cry Baby, Concentrate, and Hitchhiker that take you on journeys of love and heartbreak; all of the tracks on the album may not have a storyline, but it takes you on a thematic journey that will have you feel all the feels! Demi has completely matured as an artist--in her lyrics, production, and voice--and will continue to do so. Tell Me You Love Me is a masterpiece for the ages and the best out of all the ex-acts. Not just that, but I think it is safe to say that it is the best album of 2017! Good work Demi. Keep slaying! Expand

    Demi's best album ever! i can't choice a favorite song because all are perfect! She's deserves a grammy! "So tell me
    Did you ever really love me
    Did you ever really want me
    Now that I see clearer
    I wonder
    Was I ever really happy
    Didn't get the chance to ask
    Now that I see you clear
    Was it just smoke and mirrors"

    Demi tuvo una evolución muy grande desde unbroken, al fin tiene el trabajo y reconocimiento merecido. Pienso que este es su mejor album, y si sigue trabajando con los mismos productores, al fin superará a muchas teens actuales.

    Demi Lovato veio com tudo neste novo álbum, mostrando que não é apenas aquela cantora que muitos conhecem como "cantora berro", e sim um grande vocal na música e que promete ser lembrada por gerações, esse álbum é o primeiro passo certo da cantora durante anos de carreira.

    Tell Me You Love Me is a stand out in Lovato's discography. Her use of different vocal techniques make each song an interesting piece of art. Lovato easily emotes in each song, allowing the listener to empathize with her. Overall, the production of this album along with powerhouse vocals securing Demi as a front runner in the music industry.

    She's so talented. Always trying new style for the new album. I love her, she's growing up. I think, she finally found her style. Love this album! Her best!

    Same thing with all your previous albums. Where is innovation? People today think that only "dancing pop" is who should dominate the musical charts, and there are several other musical styles to be explored.

    Lovato continua vivendo na mesmice, seu álbum soa sem identidade alguma assim como a própria Demi. O álbum não é nada inovador e metade dele é perdido numa tentativa de sensualizar com trap-pop.

Demi não perdeu a mania de exagerar muitas vezes com a necessidade de mostrar uma voz que já sabemos que ela tem, para disfarçar as falhas causadas por tanta gritaria o uso de auto-tune é explicito até demais em algumas faixas e é só escutar "Sexy Dirt Love". Demi Lovato no fim das contas continua sem uma gota de personalidade própria e pode se juntar a outras como ela, tipo Halsey e Jessie J para fazer logo um girlgroup. Expand

    Where is any type of personality in this album, it's a bunch of mixed, overproduced sounds from past actual artists that did it better. Lifeless, soulless, manufactured rubbish.

    Demi again leaves something to be desired. this album is the portrait of the sameness and disperdicio of talent of a woman with a powerful voice. the album tracks seem to be the same, sonically repetitive songs. good voice, tiring and boring album.

    Weak compositions and dubious production, but with his powerful voice, Lovato tries to continue the story followed by his "Confident" of 2015. However he already stumbles at the beginning of the album with his confidence shaken with another song pretending not to care.

    Not a good album unfortunately...Only Sorry not sorry is a good song. All the other songs sound like samples from other artists. I’ll not listen to it again in my life, sorry.

    Demi está muy perdida en la música. Álbum aburrido sin nada nuevo que aportar. No sé si este es su peor disco porque la verdad que todos son bastante malos, pero este me aburrió mucho y grita demasiado. Que haga más música de verdad y deje de gritar, por favor.

    The LP gets bogged down in chilled-out trap pop (see the Lil Wayne-​assisted "Lonely"). But slow jams like "Concentrate" perfectly balance the downtempo and the energetic.

    This is where Tell Me You Love Me improves on Lovato’s previous albums: It gives you enough space to see Demi as something other than a no-holds-barred belter.

    The songs aren’t hackwork--they’re catchy and funny and sexy and daring.
