    HIT after HIt after HIT, Classic after classic. How can this album be so low rated by the critics? Teenage Dream is THE pop bible, and helped shape modern pop music. This album alone solidifies Katy's legacy as a pop LEGEND.

    Não é o melhor álbum da cantora, pois foi feita para hitar e criar uma estética doce e alegre. Levando em conta seus objetivos, o álbum alcançou um desempenho espetacular, sendo retratado até como a maior era feminina do pop. Nos trouxe músicas motivacionais e plot twists muito bons.

    É o maior álbum pop da década de 2010 e com certeza merecia todos os prêmios que foram indicados, inclusive o Grammy.

    Teenage Dream is the best pop album of the past decade, although the "Experts" say no, the general public yes, and that this bible of pop broke many records at that time, so for me it has a 90 and nothing more

    TD will remain a benchmark for extremely pop albums but the album without the singles leaves much to be desired.

    I don't understand how people don't like this album; it's astonishing and almost all of its songs are nostalgic gems.

    Album fraco com produções batidas e letras infantis, Katy Perry fez esse album pensando nos charts e não na qualidade do album em si.

    Esse álbum é um lixo total, foi esmagado pelo The Fame Monster da Gaga no Grammy e nas vendas também!

    Weak album that only had successful songs due to the massive radio payola at the time.

    To 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.

    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.
