    Awful. She can't sing, can't write, can't dance, can't produce, can't really do much except for whisper. Why is she even famous...?

    Revival is a powerful album, it’s not talking about her past relationships but her about her experience in life. This is not just an album this is an art! I wasn’t a fan of hers till I listened to how mature she became with her vocals and her saying in life. This is definitely her best work yet and might be the best album of 2015, it’s refreshing and new.

    Cohesive, sexy, personal. These three words are the perfect definition to Selena's new album. It's just her, in 16 tracks, now I can find Selena in her music.

    Best tracks: Sober, Hands to Myself, Camouflage, Rise, Me & The Rhythm, Body Heat.

    Incredible and solid pop album. The songs not only fit her voice, but they have great lyrics and is such a refreshing feel in today's music landscape. Very proud of her and her team.

    This album shows Selena's changes. From the first to the last track she keeps us involved on this masterpiece.
    Especially the tracks "Revival", "Hands to Myself", "Survivors" and "Perfect", my four favorites.

    Honestly, I've never been much of a Selena fan. In the past I've found much of her music to be generic and not to my taste.
    However, after massively loving Good For You, Same Old Love, and Me & the Rhythm I decided to give the album a chance. Credit where credit is due, this may just be my album of the year. The album shows a whole new side to Selena - a mature, confident side that I hope

    I may have just been converted to a Selenator!

    Metacritic is becoming a bias database of alleged music critics. This album was well done by Selena. Only people who actually like the pop genre will have a valid and reliable review. So many haters. So if you don't like pop stay out of this review.

    Um álbum bom, o melhor da carreira de Selena, claro que quando ouvimos Same Old Love e Good for You esperávamos mais, mas não são todas as músicas que são ruins, o álbum merece mais que cinco singles, mas uns sete, claramente vemos uma cantora que deixou de ser teen e se aperfeiçoou na música, o seu vocal está melhor, junto de Miley, Selena mostra o que é ser uma teen de verdade e comUm álbum bom, o melhor da carreira de Selena, claro que quando ouvimos Same Old Love e Good for You esperávamos mais, mas não são todas as músicas que são ruins, o álbum merece mais que cinco singles, mas uns sete, claramente vemos uma cantora que deixou de ser teen e se aperfeiçoou na música, o seu vocal está melhor, junto de Miley, Selena mostra o que é ser uma teen de verdade e com qualidade.

    One of the best albums of the year so far! I think is her best album. Every single song has a positive meaning behind it and an amazing production. My favs songs are: Kill em with kindness, Good for you, Me & and the rhythm, Sorber and Hands to myself.

    First with the hit "Good For You" and after with "Same Old Love" and the synth "Me & The Rhythm", Selena proves that she is mature than ever. 'Revival' shows us the really 'Selena Gomez' and that is her 'first' album since her reborn stuff, and also the best. It's wonderful what she get to do with this record. Revival marks Selena's arrival into the musical industry. Slay Selena!

    This album is wonderful! This is the best album produced by Selena, better than Stars Dance. It shows how she improved. People are saying that this is album is worse, and things like that but they're lying because this album is fantastic. "Me and the rhythm", "Good For You", "Hands to myself" and "Same Old Love" are the best songs. Congratulations to her.

    Uma mudança radical no estilo musical da Gomez, algo que caracteriza uma Selena adulta, responsável, forte, e confiante, com músicas sentimentais profundas, incentivadoras, e poderosas, sem dúvidas, o melhor álbum do ano.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album is soo good. One of the best albums of 2015 by far. It gives great messages to people for staying strong but without losing the wonderfull alternative sound. The songs are nearly impeccable and they combine catchy pop music with rnb mindi tempo pop alternative sound. Addiotionally, i will never understand why "Nobody" and "Perfect" are not in the standart album edition, because they are excellent. I think that Gomez deserves a Grammy nomination for that.

    Her best album yet. It varies from exciting midtempos and ballads to upbeat energetic dance jams. Her voice is very chameleonic. Great production, enjoyable and exciting at every time, really original and with a wide range of music styles in it.

    Song for song, Revival rivals Carly Rae Jepsen's Emotion for breakout pop album of the year, but if it similarly falls short of greatness, it's due in large part to a lack of originality.

    There’s enough growth here to accept the occasional stumble. Revival, like ‘Good For You’, is a damn fine, hook-laden surprise. Selena Gomez has found a voice worth paying serious attention to.

    Revival is an audacious name for a 23-year-old singer's second album, but from start to finish, Gomez earns it. This is the sound of a newly empowered pop artist growing into her strengths like never before.
