    Boring album. Reputation and 1989 were much more better. Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish and Lana Del Rey deserves their recognition.

    Swift’s ‘Lover’ comes almost two years after the dark and edgy ‘reputation’, which introduced us to a darker self, full of vengeful and savage moments.

The start of the ‘Lover’ era (marked by the music video for lead single ‘Track 16: ME!’) saw a renewed and revitalized version of “the old Taylor” – pastel color schemes, butterflies instead of snakes, and a stronger and more confident woman who’s no longer afraid to speak out her truth. ‘Lover’ continues the love stories (no pun intended) found on ‘reputation’, where Swift now outwardly expresses her love for her man (and his country and culture as well) who lives across the Atlantic (‘Track 8: London Boy’), who’s been by her side for three summers now (‘Track 2: Cruel Summer, ‘Track 3: Lover’). In comparison to the older albums in her catalog, there’s a marked growth, increased clarity, and more depth in her song writing, which is undeniably her greatest asset and among the best of today’s pop stars. But it’s not just her relationship with Joe that she discusses – Swift mentions how this album is a “love letter to love itself”. From discussing the topic of parental love and heartbreak over a parent’s experience with cancer (‘Track 12: Soon You’ll Get Better’), to calling out the lack of love and support Swift, and all the women out there, receive because of their gender (‘Track 4: The Man’), to even criticizing all that has been engendered by Trump’s America, albeit via a metaphor of a high school (‘Track 7: Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince’), Swift has once again proven why she is The Pop Queen and is a force to be reckoned with. Simply put, ‘Lover’ is an upgraded version of ‘Red’ in terms of its themes, ‘Speak Now’ in terms of its songwriting, and ‘1989’ in terms of its production. ‘Lover’ is one of Swift’s greatest decisions in her 13-year career.… Expand

    Lover is such an experimental album. Once again Ms.Swift prove us her power, her mind, and her life. Although her capacity of selling out stadium tours, she still an underrated artists. She is an artists, not just a singer. The album sticks to his concept about true love.

    Lover may be Taylor Swift's best album since 2010's Speak Now. It doesn't quite match the highs of that album, but certainly doesn't match the lows either. Throughout the album, the listener gets the sense that... this is Taylor Swift in her purest, most brutally honest form especially in songs such as Soon You'll Get Better, which is the most heartbreaking song I've listened to all year.

The lyrics on Lover are sickening, this is one of her best albums lyrically, the bridges on Lover are all incredible and are so well written and Taylor wrote every song on this album alone or with minimal help, showcasing her true talent in the songwriting field. All of the songs are single worthy,with this album having a lot of upbeat, positive and fun songs that make you want to dance. The beats and melody’s on this album are so catchy and perfect for pop music. In my opinion this is my personal favourite album from taylor since it has the lyrical content of Speak Now, the pure emotion of Red, the pop anthems like 1989, and the storytelling she is so well know for. Some of my favourite tracks are ‘Miss Americana & The HeartBreak Prince’, ‘London Boy’, ‘Afterglow’ and ‘Cruel Summer’. Although I love them all!… Expand

First off the album is too long. The entire first half sounds the same with no pace change until we get to soon you’ll get better. The opening song I forgot that you existed is a recycled version of this is why we can’t have nice things. With undertones of every other song on reputation. The next half of the album is getaway car with worse lyrics/bridges/choruses. The beautiful song she wrote for her mother is arranged in the exact same way Ronan was. The man lyrics are awful. All of the lyrics pretty much are. I would rate this album 0/10 and will probably never listen to it again. There is no growth here. There are hints of moments. The archer explores themes of a relationship but some of the lyrics in that song pretty much ruin it. “Cut off my nose just to spite my face” anyways I’ve seen virtually no criticisms of this album so here’s my take.… Expand

    Lover is a masterpiece! There is not a single bad song on this entire 18-track album. Taylor continues to raise the bar higher for artists in this generation. I've loved seeing Taylor Swift write and sing about trying to find love and dreaming about her fairytale romance and now in Lover finally finding that true love. It's amazing to see her come so far and be so incredibly happy. ThisLover is a masterpiece! There is not a single bad song on this entire 18-track album.

    Lover explores about the deepest and most fleeting emotions anyone can experience when in love, down or undergoing healing. Production-wise and lyrically strong, Taylor is at another height in her career.

    Cruel Summer, Miss Americana, and Cornelia Street are the holy trinity. Miss Swift has done it once again!

    This is far more than I expected. The album is like a daughter of 1989 and Red, allowing you to go through all kinds of feelings. So many great tunes and lyrics in one masterpiece. 10/10 from me without any hesitation!

    Definitely one of her best if not the best album she has created. An entire album dedicated to love in every way shape and form. Taylor proves herself as a juggernaut in an industry flooded with generic artists.

    This is undoubtedly the album of the year. Taylor manages to revisit all of her past creative endeavours and make one big masterpiece. This is the album she was always meant to write. Pop at it's finest, with no fear to get vulnerable with the lyrics or innovative with the melodies.

    Amazing album. It is so sonically cohesive and the lyrics have the quality that we can expect from one of the best songwriters in this era. This is one of her best albums. This is definitely the best album in 2019. It would be a shock and shame if it were to lose the AOTY in the Grammy’s.

    With lyrics that could “cut glass” and a production that is fun, catchy, and fresh Taylor’s 7th album comes across as her best yet.

Lover is something that will make everyone want to find someone they can love as much as Taylor seems to love Joe. It’s a diverse album that, as Taylor puts it, is a “love letter to love”. It shows the complexity of emotions felt while falling and being in love. Lover is the album of not only this year, but years to come.… Expand

    It’s an album that screams out for an editor, but when it hits the right notes, it demonstrates just why Taylor Swift is one of the biggest pop stars in the world.

    Ultimately, Lover is overstuffed and meandering, but serves as a positive reprieve from her past struggles in the public eye, and represents an artist at the peak of her creativity, power, and—one hopes—continued romantic bliss.

    Lover is a fabulous record, full of super-fun standout pop hits that make your heart burst. It oozes with Swift’s much more palatable upbeat sass. She’s in love and also thinking about different kinds of love.
