    A beautiful album with dreamy layers and a new level lyricism for Taylor. Political songs such as “Miss Americana and the Heart Break Prince” and “The Man” are executed perfectly with bold meanings and artful presentations. Although the name “Lover” implies happiness, “Death by a Thousand Cuts,” “False God,” “Soon You’ll Get Better,” present the ugly side to what should be a perfect world.A beautiful album with dreamy layers and a new level lyricism for Taylor.

    Lover parece mesclar a Taylor no country antigamente e hj no pop. O álbum parece ser tudo que ela queria fazer desde que pisou no mundo pop. Mas acho que não é tão grandioso quanto 1989. Mas é uma briga boa entre Lover e Rep pra ver quem tem a melhor Taylor.

We can go from a heartbreaking country ballad with soon you’ll get better to a neo soul inspired track about sex, false god, from a political song with Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince and its groundbreaking production to a fun rock song about love, Paper rings.

    The only thing critics had been saying negatively about this album is that it’s too long. And so far, they’re the only ones complaining. As I see it, this album is for her fans and herself, so 18 tracks really isn’t an issue here.

YNTCD was met with controversy but overall it has done more good than bad (as claimed by members of the LGBTQIA+ community whom SHE is fighting for). Y’all just making excuses to hate on her, and to be honest, it’s your loss. I know people would say “I miss the old Taylor” or RED was better, what this album symbolizes is her growth in all aspects of her life, and I love a story of maturity. This 18-tracked album may be overwhelming at first but once you give it a listen, you’ll find yourself hitting that ‘repeat’ button and listening to it for ten more rounds. Expand

    The album has great points like it's compositions, production and is very effective in creating a happy atmosphere, but the only problem is the extense track-list with some songs that could have been cut from the final album.

    Taylor Swift continues to embrace her talent of songwriting and this beautifully shines in her 7th album 'Lover'. Well written lyrics weaved with outstanding production brings the album on a whole new level. Other than being a collection of love songs, it gets people thinking about issues occurring in society today such as feminism and equality.

    Данный альбом Тейлор Свифт я начинал слушать с небольшим опасением, ввиду того, что ранее были выпущены весьма неоднозначные синглы в поддержку грядущего релиза. Нельзя сказать, что я оказался разочарован пластинкой. Но и откровенно положительных эмоций работа у меня не вызвала.
    За что можно точно похвалить мисс Свифт, так это за то, что так или иначе, она создала довольно цельное детище.

    За что можно точно похвалить мисс Свифт, так это за то, что так или иначе, она создала довольно цельное детище. Альбом имеет хорошо проработанную структуру и слушается довольно легко. Только в рамках этой всей цельной картины, нет ярких красок. Нет, тех самых ярких хитов, которыми кишели её прошлые работы. Яркими пятнами на этом музыкальном полотне, команда Тейлор решила сделать не совсем удачные мазки, которые так не приглянулись более приближенной к творчеству исполнительницы публике. Конечно, мы можем наблюдать потенциал некоторых композиций. Только даже если он и пытается сиять на фоне всего остального содержимого, делает это он довольно блекло и подаёт малые признаки жизни.
    Среди сильных сторон, стоит также отметить авторские навыки Тейлор. Пусть они, конечно, иногда и содержат в себе то, что уже принято называть её поэтическим клише, встречаются и довольно тёплые строки.
    Стал ли этот альбом шагом вперёд в творчестве для Тейлор? Не думаю. Стал ли он чем-то определяющим в таком жанре как поп-музыка? Я так не считаю. Но тем не менее, от релиза веет теплом, пусть и не столь очевидным как может показаться при первом прослушивании.

With an upbeat feminist anthem “The Man” and a subtle but very political “Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince”, this album has a lot to relate to the current society. It shows how far Swift has come in her life and that she is finally standing up for things that really matters. Swift’s current outspoken stand on LGBTQ rights is also changing the world one signature at a time. With a petition addressed to President Trump and The White House to pass the Equality Act, the Pride anthem “You Need To Calm Down” has been a celebrated track among the LGBTQ community. The raw emotions of “Soon You’ll Get Better” which she dedicates to her mom who is battling cancer, will have listeners bawling. In a nutshell,
    “Lover” is truly and amazing and inspiring album, and thank you to Taylor Swift for giving us such a masterpiece.

    as “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince” and “Afterglow” reminds us her reputation’s modern electropop production, Lover incorporates brighter, more cheerful tones, departing from the dark sounds of its predecessor, reputation.
    Also False God has a really different sound for her, definitely one of my favourites [that saxophone].

    Boring, Taylor should take a break and come back with something fresh not this work that sounds like everything she's done before. Bye.

    i personally wanted to see her growth and perhaps getting a little mature in this album but yet again she talks about her boyfriend and heartbreaks.

    She tries to go back to old taylor but she fails miserably It’s a good album if you just turned 13

    Except You need to calm down this is really bad. Generic, mainstream pop that’s here to please those who don’t really appreciate music.

    me! is the most insufferable song i think i’ve ever heard. whoever allowed that to be written and produced i don’t know. the album itself is so expected and bland. 0 negative reviews? somethings up.

    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.
