Aug 13, 2011Not really my kind of music. This sounds like pretty much everything else on popular radio stations, maybe because her music is all that they play on radio stations. It's definitely not the worst music out there. The album is super produced and loaded with catchy songs. Props to the producers and Perry for having 5 number one singles.

Oct 30, 2012A little less rock, a little less good lyrics but much more sex! That was probably the motto for Perry's sophomore release. 'California Gurls' 'Teenage Dream' or 'Circle The Drain' are one of the better songs on the CD, however, the album is a pretty mess. But I'm giving a plus point for her voice.

Aug 25, 2020Un álbum colosal de la cultura pop, el impacto y los números no mienten, tampoco los tremendos hits que marcaron la era mas exitosa de KP.

Mar 30, 2021It's undeniable that Teenage Dream is one of the most sucessful eras to haver exist, mostly due to its five number one singles that redifined all our generation. Nevertheless, there's nothing interesting about it, other than the singles.
-
Dec 21, 2018We have an issue of too generic album, but a big evolution of Katy Perry. The whole album is great and cool but it has a lack of something stronger than it would need in the next album. The songs are good, still lacking a special essence to stay optimum! Evolution.
-
Aug 7, 2013This is an awesome album! With pop beats like and ballads like Pearl, it has something for everybody. A well constructed album with not really any errors.
-
Nov 21, 2016A significant improvement over One Of the Boys. Including two great tracks, Teenage Dream and TOTGA, and some good ones (E.T. Wide Wake), it's a very fun record

May 28, 2012You Have No Idea How Much I Love This Album! A Very Big Step Up From One Of The Boys!
I Love Every Singe Song On This CD! In My Opinion Album Of The Year 2010! -
Nov 15, 2011So, Katy Perry is still triyng to pass herself as a teenange pop singer. But she is not, not anymore. This album is so forgettable than her first one. Silly lyrics, too-much-screamy voice, and bad songs, this might be the worst album of this 2011. Nothing to recommend.
-
Feb 6, 2020This album came to change the history of pop, but has something generic and totally commercial, the sound and compositions do not get to be bad but there is something that bothers me, but the album is around saturated to hear from having heard in each corner or because it is surface too much. A mature Katy Perry in her next few years is what I'd like to hear.

Sep 13, 2010Katy Perry's Sophmore Release is , in plain english, OUTSTANDING! When "California Gurls" was released everyone was crazy about it and couldn't wait for the album. My favorite is "The one that got away"..How can anyone touch this...NO ONE CAN
-
Aug 25, 2015This album is nothing but a big stinking pile of rubbish. I only gave it a 1 because Firework is an alright song, but my ears would bleed from the rest of the album's songs. This needs to stop.
-
Dec 16, 2014Best album of Katy, is a fully commercial album? Yes. But she managed to make a nice commercial album to listen to, it's so much fun that you do not care if it has quality or not, just want to sing and dance along with Katy; a great album to listen to when alone.
Highlights: Peacock and California Gurls
Lows: Double Rainbow and Dark Horse -
Sep 28, 2018Teenage Dream is a classic pop masterpiece. They don't make pop music like this anymore.
-
May 24, 2011Instead of making these two lacklustre albums - she should have taken her time and made a great pop album. Circle the Drain is one of my favourite songs ever though... and it helps.
-
May 4, 2015Katy Perry bursts back onto the scene with her amazing second album that is full to the grim of the tongue-in-cheek atmosphere that got herkhkkjhjghjbnnnnn

Dec 25, 2015
-
Dec 11, 2010this album was okay. Katy Perry could be better. her songs are too girlie. I think katy perry sings really good. This album was good but not as good. I like a few songs from this album
-
May 4, 2016A pop record filled with danceable beats, excellent production and stunning vocals. Yet, Katy Perry has long way to go. "Wide Awake" and "Circle The Drain" are gems. You cannot take this album lightely. It has produced 5 Billboard chart toppers and its singles along with the album earned Perry seven Grammy Award nominations including Album of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album , and Record of the Year
-
Jun 15, 2017The contrast between the good written ballas like Pearl, Who Am I Living For and Hummingbird Heartbeat and the dull songs like California Girls and Peacock are the chemistry that make this album so love it or hate it. But for an immature audience, this album fits very well.
-
Feb 28, 2020This has to be the most overrated album in history. What you basically get here is a lot of bubblegum music. The target audience are 7 year olds and kindergarden events. Even all the singles have aged like milk. The only song that is still listenable is "E.T.".
-
Nov 21, 2012This is just a damn mess. Getting through this album is like running a 5k that you don't care about running fast in but some jerk is screaming in your face telling you to speed up.
-
Mar 24, 2013Honestly This Is My Favorite Album Of All Time! I Don't Care What Critic's Say...
It's 2013 And This Album Has Had Six #1 Hits And Two Other Songs Peaking In The Top 3!
This Is What Pop Music Really Is! Perfect Perry -
Nov 10, 2017Teenage Dream marked the peak of Katy Perry's ever so fast falling career. This album wasn't meant to be amazing it was meant to create big hits like California Girls and Firework. It didn't have a strong meaning it just had a fun meaning and sometimes we need those kinds of albums.
-
Nov 12, 2012The result is treacherous, unsatisfactory, and immature. No adult would enjoy it.
-

May 12, 2017melhor album da Katy Perry, simplesmente perfeito, não sei como os criticos ignoraram esse hinario, tem otimas musicas, melhores musicas: Hummingbird Heart, Pearl, Who I Am Living For
Piores: Peacock, Last Firday Night -
Mar 24, 2013Although Katy's talent is nowhere to be found, tracks "Teenage Dream," "E.T" and"California Gurls" were fantastic and sounded very good. Katy and her co-writers did a good job writing the lyrics.
-
Nov 15, 2021To judge Perry as inauthentic or unoriginal would be wrong; as with any great ad campaign, uncanny familiarity is her greatest achievement. However, for all the pomp and watermelon costumes, Perry is primarily a smart and personal pop songwriter. And «Teenage Dream» shows in carefully selected spots-that she's ready to grow up.
-
Dec 27, 2021TD will remain a benchmark for extremely pop albums but the album without the singles leaves much to be desired.
-
Nov 20, 2021Only really liked two songs on this album so an average review. Don’t really like futuristic pop.

Aug 6, 2019O melhor álbum da Katy e um dos álbuns mais icônicos do pop. Hits que serão lembrados pra sempre que trouxe sonoridades viciantes. (California girls marcou essa geração!!!)
-
Nov 2, 2020Uno de sus mejores álbumes, muestra ese concepto de teenage que me encanta, el mejor. Muestra un poco de rock, pop y sus mejores maneras de Pop. Katy se reinventó, a parte que este álbum tienen 5 #1 y su versión deluxe lleva otro más.
-
Mar 27, 2020Another pretty cohesive body of work by Katy Perry. It's singles are killing everything else! Even though, I prefer One of the Boys, rather than her next releases.

Jun 20, 2014Um album que ainda traz um pouco da Katy do "One Of The Boys" e tem músicas legais como Peacock,Not Like The Movies e Who Am I Living For? mas que trás alguns "lixos" como Teenage Dream e Circle The Drain.
-
Aug 28, 2015If you want to write ballads its OK, but if you're going to do this, then just return to party songs. It seems that she sings the first thing that comes from her mind and it's annoying that she just make songs to be on the top of charts and her fans think that this album is the best thing ever. One Of The Boys and PRISM are MUCH better.
-
Dec 24, 2017Good pop album full of hits, not Katy's best but still good. I really like ballads.
-
Sep 20, 2019i really think it's the best Katy has ever done and will do. Album is pure pop and needs no amendments.
-
Oct 30, 2020A true masterpiece, one of the most iconic albums from the last decades. Miss Perry made a lot of memorable songs with this album.
-
Mar 19, 2021With music as rigidly formulaic as this, no wonder the teens in her songs want to party until they blank out
-
May 23, 2011She forgot one thing about Teenage Dreams: they can also be nightmares! While the album is gifted with a fabulous first half, a "Peacock" comes along and drags down the "California candy cloud" to pop hell.
-
Apr 26, 2012Getting sick of hearing her on the radio all time. Although her songs here are probably better. I just don'tt know. It is all generic pop music that has been done a million times before. Katy Perry on a cloud too for the album cover. Sleaze.
-
Dec 17, 2014Katy Perry no es una genio de la música, puede que la causa sea su excesivo uso de cliches a la hora de escribir e interpretar, pero en sí, el esfuerzo de Perry puede verse resaltado gracias a varias pistas que se convierten en cruciales para dejar un buen sabor en la boca, como lo es "Fireworks", "Part of Me" y "Teenage Dream".
-
Jun 16, 2017terrible. terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.terrible.
-
May 17, 2018A very, very, strong album from Katy Perry, and a good introduction of her as an artist. A few filler songs (and Last Friday Night is not that great) but overall very solid.
-
Aug 12, 2011Katy Perry's second recording is (for the most part, at least) dumb, sex-crazy, and boring. I wouldn't exactly recommend it, but if you're a true-blue Katy Perry fan (to which I say, "already?!"), then go ahead. But make sure you mark my words--this is a pretty bad album compared to ONE OF THE BOYS, and it is NOT a TEENAGE DREAM.
-
Oct 16, 2014Too mainstream but I think this album was made for consolidate Katy Perry's mark in the radio. Lyrics isn't good, the beats are better. Perry has a lot to grow up and I'll hope she does it.
-
Jun 15, 2012
-
Aug 8, 2017It's not that much quality album, BUT "Teenage Dreams" defined 2010s and pop music overall. A fact that album's 5 songs hits #1 at Billboard, tells everything. People just love this album. "Firwork" is a type of the song that will be sung 15 years from now, and "California Gurls" is ultimate summer song. Perfect pop album.
-
Aug 28, 2020Nobody could actually have an iconic album as this one. She did that, she is the moment.
-
Oct 2, 2020This project feels like an uninspired one, I wanted to like it but it didn't happen.

Aug 31, 2019TEENAGE DREAM contains massive catchy hits. But when you found out that it came from the same album, you would wonder what the hell were the songs related in this title?

Sep 16, 2020Segundo álbum muy bueno lleno de mensajes positivos para la sociedad de música divertida sonidos y ritmos muy buenos acompañada de grandes letras muy lógicas y congruentes me encanta es un gran álbum lleno de sopesas.

Dec 14, 2010hmmm, The only bad track is "Peacock", the rest is OK, is better than One of the Boys but it can be better. The best tracks are "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", "E.T." and "Firework"
-
Nov 2, 2011A good album that reflects the image of the current pop with dance music, lively, cheerful, a perfect album for all hours, Teenage Dream surely leave its mark on pop history.
-
Feb 27, 20163/10 - "With music as rigidly formulaic as this, no wonder the teens in her songs want to party until they blank out" - Chicago Tribune.
I like hearing Katy's singles on the radio when I'm in the car but I really don't think I could ever listen to this album from start to finish again. -
Nov 24, 2021Terrible. No passion, no soul. Worst album of the year. I need something really good to clean up my ears right now.
-
Dec 7, 2020every song in the album is fantastic, katy's teenage dream is just legendary, periodttt
-
Apr 11, 2018Since this album Katy became my favorite singer, it is an album in which she shows different types of contexts, the rhythms are spectacular, the videos too iconic and definitely deserved to win a grammy
-
Mar 29, 2021What else can you say about this album? - A masterpiece....................
-
Aug 4, 2012Teenage Dream is a good pop album. Not great, not very good, just -good-. These are the types of songs that any pop singer could sing and it would sound the same; Katy herself doesn't bring much personality to the album. They just sound like 12 songs randomly picked out of Dr. Luke's vault.
-
Sep 3, 2021Pesimo disco, le doy un punto por que No Like The Movies es la unica cancion buena, y Firework se salva, pero lo demas cambio mucho su estilo comprarandolo con su anterior album, sus letras llegan a ser un poco vulgares y huecas. se hubiera quedado mejor en la era One Of The Boys...
-
Feb 17, 2015Não é o melhor e nem o pior album da Perry. TD Foi bem organizado e criado pra vendas, não é a toa que resultou numa explosão de hits chicletes. Katy sempre se supera

Jul 3, 2019Its a good pop album ,you will enjoy it ,but the main problem are the lyrics they are so basic ,but the beats are incredible. In summary a summer album to hear and enjoy.

Feb 11, 2012Extremely generic. Catchy beats, unoriginal lyrics with some sex references and, summarizing, it's not innovative at all. Just a bunch of radio-friendly songs directed to a teen public with the objective of making profit.
-
Aug 29, 2020Es un álbum grandioso en contra de la homobobia,bullyng, racismo, sexismo me encantouno de los mejores de la historia
-
Mar 20, 2021The singles are the best thing on the album. Without them, the recent "Smile" with all the pop monotony would have turned out.

Oct 30, 2016Um álbum que trás felicidade, com muitos hinos, musica de superação, musica que traz realidade...
Os #1 vieram como consequência do sucesso das faixas.
Teenage Dream é o melhor álbum da Katy e não por ser comercial, e sim transparecer e passar emoção, fragilidade, felicidade e melancolia em suas faixas. -
Aug 28, 2020El mejor álbum de todos, tiene la era más certificada de la historia de Estados Unidos
-
Aug 29, 2020The album has come very high highies and some very low lows. Teenage Dream and The One That Got Away are amazing but unfortunately they can't carry an entire album.
-
Apr 2, 2021ICONIC, I don't even need to say anything, this album have her biggest hits that everyone will remember for years and years.

Awards & Rankings
-
After some severe front-loading, the album is filled out by songs that are too dark or lifeless to work alongside the Candyland motif of the cover and sunbeamy splash of California Gurls.
-
Teenage Dream is the kind of pool-party-pop gem that Gwen Stefani used to crank out on the regular, full of SoCal ambience and disco beats.
-
There's none of the ABBA or Cardigans influence she claimed, nor any of the fun she seems to have in real life. For now she just sounds like another of pop's Stepford Wives.
