    Album sem intenção de charts, um mimo para os fãs!!! Miley extremamente versátil e boa em tudo que se propõe, só não é boa em divulgação!!

    I’ve never heard a country album before but this is really good. I love how Miley always reinvents her sounds

    Esse álbum é um dos meu favoritos! A Miley é uma artista muito versátil e eu gosto disso... Porque ela sempre reflete isso no visual, na música dela e em tudo que for preciso. E o Younger Now é um exemplo disso, e tem músicas incríveis

    Younger Now is a brilliant attempt at growing up and looking back and learning from your experiences. Miley's vocals have never sounded better in years. She is making the music that she wants to make and she basically did it almost by herself this era and that's something she can be proud of.

    I've been a fan of Miley since the Hannah Montana days, and was disapointed by 'Can't Be Tamed' and more so by 'Bangerz'. It's really nice to see her go back to her roots and create such a beautiful piece of art in the form of 'Younger Now'.

    Younger Now é um álbum gostoso de se ouvir, mas tem algumas faixas bem enjoativas que eu não ouviria 2 vezes seguidas. Enfim, eu amei o álbum, mas algumas faixas como "Inspired" não são as minhas favoritas.

    Eu realmente não esperava muito desse álbum mas a Miley mostrou que assim como pode surpreender de uma forma um tanto exagerada como no se ultimo álbum "Bangerz" ela também pode surpreender de uma forma boa, como fez com o Younger Now que tem uma sonoridade agradável, mesmo contendo tracks que não sejam tão atrativas quanto poderiam ser, o álbum em si é bom.

    Is it a really good album? Yes, it does not leave anything to be desired in quality. But maybe it's just an album that's just to enjoy as a museum exhibit. Highlights for the title track and Miss You So Much. Even if Miley wants to enjoy something "mainstream" she should use Thinkin', but it's also valid if she does not want to use it.

    E a Miley continua sua jornada...
    O Younger Now acaba sendo um bom projeto de arte, porém peca na produção. São boas letras que não foram lapidadas, bons instrumentais que não foram explorados ao máximo, uma confusão de criatividade e amadorismo.

    Choosing Malibu as lead was a brilliant idea, but Younger Now as single, besides I love that song, wasn't so smart and this didn't help with the sales on its first week. Except for the featuring, the tracks are really good and could be strong as singles, like Week Without You and Bad Mood, my favourites. I don't think it deserves a 59, but also it no way better than Bangerz.

    Miley es una gran artista y sabe reinventarse en cada era que ha tenido.
    Es un buen álbum pero esta lejos de ser el mejor de su carrera.
    Thinkin' me encantó.

    Miley has a beautiful voice, she had to change, she did well, she has composed all the songs and each of the lyrics is personally and artistically beautiful. When I first heard it I couldn't connect with the production of some of the tracks, but as I listened to it and time passed I can say that the album has aged very well.

    When we thought we saw all Miley's faces.. here it comes Younger Now: a fresh country pop album. Miley seems comfort with that, shes cool and authentic, with emotional and deep lyrics and good vocals on it that allow us to know about her even more from a different point of view.

    I just wish the rollout was better for such a great album. and I honestly think, the wrong singles were chosen - younger now, bad mood and thinking should’ve been the singles before the album dropped. personally, Malibu doesn't capture the feel of the record and younger now opens the album perfectly and explains this whole “change” magnificently and I think if YN was the first song heard w/ the video the era would’ve been handled smoother (by the GP too).    … Expand

    Following paths different from her styles, Miley Cyrus hit and managed to squander all her talent and who manages to work with styles that doesn't come to the comfort zone. The shallow lyrics and simple productions end up giving an unpretentious air to the album and ending up not airing a sound album, but it shows that she is not here to please anyone other than herself and her fans.

    This is a thumpingly disappointing and consistently milquetoast set of songs riddled with lyrical banality, done-to-death melodies and wispily thin production.

    Where her past albums felt messy but painfully sincere, Younger Now comes off as safe and overly sanitized, with the frisson that made Cyrus a star all but entirely blasted away. ... Still, the album has some plainly good songs.
