    O maioral dela, impecável em todos os sentidos, sendo Shameless uma das maiores obras de Camila Cabello

    Good album that shows all of Camila's songwriting and singing skills but it fails to show a significant evolution since her debut.

    Pop perfection in every sense of the word. I find myself coming back time and time again.

    Having just heard "Familia", her latest release, made me finally check her discography and find she's only able to get two or three good songs per release. Her fans mass giving 10s to her albums here won't change that.

    El segundo álbum de Camila conmueve con todas esas baladas que tiene, el tema MY OH MY es de los que se te quedan pegados en la cabeza y no se te sale por nada del mundo

    What an underrated album. This album perfectly describes love in all different shades: romantic, happy, confused, angry, heart-broken. It starts off with the haunting Shameless, which welcomes us to the world of Romance. Living Proof is heavenly, Bad Kind of Butterflies does a perfect job of describing anxiety, Liar is catchy, Dream of You almost feels like a dream, Easy is honest, Cry forWhat an underrated album. This album perfectly describes love in all different shades: romantic, happy, confused, angry, heart-broken. It starts off with the haunting Shameless, which welcomes us to the world of Romance. Living Proof is heavenly, Bad Kind of Butterflies does a perfect job of describing anxiety, Liar is catchy, Dream of You almost feels like a dream, Easy is honest, Cry for Me is fun, This Love is relatable, Used to This is unique and First Man is emotional. I didn't like My Oh My and Feel It Twice because I found them generic. Senorita didn't belong to this album and should have replaced with Taxi or Anyone. The only problem is Camila taking too much inspirations from other artists, but she keep growing. Her song-writing is better than most of her peers and her voice is incredible. I am so excited for her next album!… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Despite songs as This Love, Easy and Shameless that were well written and produced (but Cabello's high, weak and breathy vocals kinda ruined it), this album it's just another pop album -but worse. I'm not even gonna say that it was a surprise because, honestly, my expectations for the cuban singer was already low.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album is about love, but not only the ethereal and beautiful side of it, like in "Living Proof", "Easy" and "Dream of You", but the obscure and harder parts of it. In songs like "Shameless", "Liar" and "Bad Kind of Butterflies", it shows the conflicting feelings that arise when you are in a relationship with someone, but you are thinking of someone else. In songs like "Feel It Twice" and "Should've Said It", it talks about the sadness and anger you experience when a person confesses their feelings towards you, but you don't feel the same. There are many other gems hidden in this album about other aspects of love, but ending this amazing sonic experience with "First Man" is going back to the start of it all, when you realize that no matter what happens in your life romantically, the man who truly will love you unconditionally, is your dad.… Expand

    This album is so underrated it makes me so sad. The songwriting? Amazing. The different sounds? Outstanding. There's catchy songs like liar and my oh my, a beautiful love song with used to this, the sassy cry for me, the unconventional but 11/10 artistic masterpiece that is living proof and I could go on and on... I listen to this album probably everyday and I don't ever get tired of it

    Truly an uninspired album with a basic pop sound. Didn't expect much cause her first album was also lack luster.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I’m literally obsessed with this album. Her voice is unique.She has a powerful pen game. I cry when i listen first man and used to this every time.Her best album!! Lyrics are beautiful. If you feel angry to your ex listen cry for me. If you’re getting married dance with your father at the wedding and play first man. If you’re in love listen easy and used to this. If you wanna feel sexy listen shameless. And bad kind of butterflies...this song is a masterpiece.… Expand

    Good but not as great as her first album. Romance lacks the authenticity that Camila’s first album had. Most of the songs were very fun and lovely, while some were just ”meh”.

    Overall, I still enjoyed this album.

    Shameless is one of the best pop songs released in years, the album is cohesive from beginning to end.

    La evolución de Camila a Romance es muy notoria, tanto en sonido como letra y voz, un buen trabajo que merecía más reconocimiento.

    Romance is without a doubt Camila's best body of work the album literally has no skips and every song could be a single I am so proud of her

    Cabello’s willingness to assist in [the music industry’s embrace of the “Latin” sound] caricature elsewhere distracts from the otherwise interesting Spanish-classical and Santana-esque riffs on Romance.

    Throughout “Romance,” the pop machinery clicks cleverly and efficiently into place around Cabello’s voice. The productions tend to be sparse — spooky electronic sounds, an occasional acoustic or electric guitar, hefty but discreet drums — and even where the choruses ratchet up, Cabello’s voice often stays close and confiding.

    Romance is a solid, sexually charged sophomore entry that places growth at center-stage and keeps us wanting more without going limp.
