    Amazing music, not one skip. There is one song that I, personally, don’t like but that doesn’t make it a bad song, I just didn’t like it. However, the album is cohesive and tells amazing stories. The lyrics are exceptional and her vocals are even better.

    Good album! I really takes you to every stage of love. There's Should've of said it- about having someone want you after you've moved on. Bad kind of butterflies- confessing to your significant other that you have feelings for someone else. My Oh My-about wanting to lose yourself in a feeling...

    It's such an amazing album that reflects her growth as an artist. The haters are hating because they are in denial that someone with such talent exists. A talented person who supports all artists too and they should do the same. All of the songs are bops and they are tell a story. My faves are Should've Said It, This Love, Shameless, Used to This, Bad Kind of Butterflies. She's amazing andIt's such an amazing album that reflects her growth as an artist.

    The melodies and production of this album are incredible... but the most enthralling part is the vulnerability in the lyrics and the emotions that you feel as she sings those words.

Definitivamente unos de los mejores álbumes lógicamente como socialmente. Puedes ver el crecimiento como artista con su anterior álbum "Camila". Definitivamente tienes que escuchar este álbum.

    Romance is probably the best album dropped by an artist this year. Not only does Camila sound amazing, she explores different sounds and types of music which overall create a perfect album. There is seriously no skips on Romance, because ever song has it's own melody and meaning. Camila really took her concept to heart and I believe Romance is beautiful.

While her debut album, 'Camila', was raw, emotional and an introduction to her world, it was very safe. With 'Romance', Camila proves why she's a POP force in the making. She experiments with new sounds, her vocals have improved and her song-writing is just getting better! Romance has a song for everybody. It can be serious, sad, playful, sexy but overall, ROMANTIC.… Expand

    Ignoring that, this album isn't for everybody. I see some people saying that all of the songs sound the same, but also saying she doesn't have an artistic identity yet. I completely disagree. Camila is doing something that most artists do in their first couple of albums–she's experimenting. She has pop rock, 'Shameless', pop/hip hop, 'My Oh My', latin pop, 'Should've Said It' & 'Señorita' & 'Liar', a ballad, First Man and etc. Usually artists don't do this until their 3rd or 4th album, so I admire how she's playing around with her sound.

    Personally, the only skips on this album are 'Señorita' and 'Liar'. I'm a big fan of 'Señorita' but it just doesn't mesh well with the other songs on the album & Liar just sounds so generic. Everything else though is perfect. She shows us her messy ass love life and I'm here for it!    … Expand

    Cabello’s willingness to assist in [the music industry’s embrace of the “Latin” sound] caricature elsewhere distracts from the otherwise interesting Spanish-classical and Santana-esque riffs on Romance.

    Throughout “Romance,” the pop machinery clicks cleverly and efficiently into place around Cabello’s voice. The productions tend to be sparse — spooky electronic sounds, an occasional acoustic or electric guitar, hefty but discreet drums — and even where the choruses ratchet up, Cabello’s voice often stays close and confiding.

    Romance is a solid, sexually charged sophomore entry that places growth at center-stage and keeps us wanting more without going limp.
