    Esse é o disco da carreira de Birdy. Um verdadeiro divisor de águas na sua sonoridade e composição.

    This is one of the best albums released in 2021 so far. Deep and emotional, this album is a huge career achievement for a singer. Perhaps this album finally marked Birdie's departure from mass music to unitary art.

    A wonderful album that will not leave anyone indifferent. Perhaps this is Jasmine's strongest and most emotionally deep work to date.

    Warm, celestial, with beautiful melodies and quite monotonous. It's great for a spring afternoon inside the house or a car ride

    This is Birdy's best body of work so far. Definitely secured its place as one of the best albums of 2021. Very poetic and emotional!

    Gostei. Tem uma pegada bem calma. As letras são simples mas passam a mensagem bem, só achei um pouco longo e deixa ele um pouco monótono poderia ter umas quatro músicas a menos

    It's an exceptional album, even though the guitar moments shine, the piano ballads are the best part of this album. Songs like Nobady knows me and Young heart are just wonderful.

    I love Birdy's art, she is an exceptional artist. Young Heart is her most personal album, as she stated. There is no bad songs in this album, I love it!

    Young Heart is consistent from start to finish. While it won’t necessarily ruffle many feathers, it’s a coherent addition to an already charming catalogue from Birdy.

    From the sweeping "Surrender" and "River Song" to the gospel-tinged epic hymnal of the title track, Birdy outdoes herself with Young Heart, a pensive journey that offers some solace and a shoulder to cry on.

    It could do with an edit in places (its 16-song tracklist loses momentum on the likes of ‘River Song’ and ‘Little Blue’), but for the most part it’s a record of great beauty; one to cling to when you’re going through it and revel in when you too have made it to the other side.
