    Um album divertido, mas nada diferente do que Katy Perry já tenha feito antes.

    Pontos Positivos: "Harleys in Hawaii", "Daisies", "Cry About It Later"

    Pontos Negativos: album um pouco genérico, "Smile" péssima

    Katy Perry experiencing a new one after the disastrous "Witness" was, showing new Indie sounds, the perfect mix surpassing albums like "Teenage Dream". Although the album was not well received by the general public it is a good album if you want a "PERRY EXPERIENCE".

No fue buena la elección de los sencillos, pero no afectó al álbum en los absoluto. Es un concepto que es triste pero oscuro a la vez, dándole lo que quiere a sus fans. Canciones increíbles como Tucked, Harleys In Hawaii, Smile, Not The End Of The World, Never Really Over, y casi todas, aunque Resilient es un poco diferente a las demás. Sin duda le dió a sus fans lo que querían.… Expand

    Em meio tanta negatividade, Katy serviu um álbum cheio de alegria, vocais e muito conceito e ainda por cima com uma produção maravilhosa que faz o impulso de dançar e sorrir ser incontrolável! Dentre tantas músicas negativas lançadas recentemente, é bom poder parar e só se divertir escutando música boa.

    update: envelheceu muito mal, as músicas se demonstraram bem fracas.

    Smile is very different than Katy's albums from before. The new chapter feels like this the most personal artist's project to the date. Lyrics are beautiful, songs are very catchy. Listening to this album truly feels like Perry takes you to the "Smile Park". At last procution makes this album quite unique. Optimistic move which was very anticipated and needed!

The dance and trap vibes of some tracks are really great. I think it might be her best work up to now, and the commercial success just confirms it once again.… Expand

    I honestly really love this Album a lot. This was not be Katy's best work in her career but it certainly was a step in a better direction than her previous Album "Witness" which imo was just an absolute trainwreck and awful but on this Record "Smile" which was her 6th Studio Album, this definitely turned out to be probably the most mature Album she has made which isn't to bad honestly. NowI honestly really love this Album a lot.

Now this Album soundwise was pretty hit and miss, they were some excellent and amazing pop bangers on here like the lead single "Never Really Over" which dropped in May 2019 which was her first Billboard Top 20 Hit in a while which was well deserved considering how great that track is. "Not The End of The World" is 100% the most underrated track from this Album cause of how amazing and great the beat was on there and also how catchy and **** perfect Katy's vocals were on that track I absolutely loved it. Tucked was also another fantastic and very relatable track imo with a much more softer sound to it which was pretty amazing. But as much good as there were on here I do have to say that this Record even tho it was really better than "Witness' was still a pretty meh Album in some cases like with the production on a majority of these songs being really bad or just not fitting the vibe of the song. But Yeah Katy definitely had some of her best work in a while on this record and I don't think its her Worst Album like I see many people saying it it, sure it's a bit too cheesy and lame and cliché with some of the self impowerment lines on here but I really like a majority of them honestly. So Yeah Overall I definitely am one of the people who actually really enjoys and loves this Record I think Katy did a fantastic job on it and it's a really Strong 7 out of 10 imo and I will also defend this Album honestly cause it's not like perfect or amazing but it really was a good Album.… Expand

    At first listen this album really did not resonate the message I wanted to hear, but in the two year perspective a lot has happened.

    The songs are catchy, relatable and pleasing to the ear. This may not have been the “comeback” album us fans are waiting for but I can say that this body of work really contribute to my SMILE today.

    Well, Smile performed even worse than Witness as the album, despite releasing a string of catchy singles, not only opened with shockingly low first-week sales but also made a massive leap from its initial debut at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 200, dropping to a shocking No. 54 the following week.

    Even at its sweetest, «Smile» still feels like the the too-familiar work of a star committed to remaining pleasantly, fundamentally unchanged and that may be the only mortal sin pop music can't forgive. Rather than build on any of the sounds she experimented with in the past, Perry seems content to stay in her lane when, at this point, she has nothing to lose.

    Definitivamente éste álbum es una historia de depresión resumida, puedes sentir la tristeza de Katy, cada palabra, sin duda es el hermano de PRISM, madurez, letra auténtica, canciones bailables y que te dejan algo de que pensar. Sin duda es increíble. Y la estética de circo inspirada en Cher es increíble aunque prefiero el concepto original de los setentas

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Never Really Over: 7.5
    Me parece una ccanción muy bailable y adictiva. La letra de un amor que nunca acabó pero también se puede tomar como ella con los katycats después de Witness.
    Cry About it Later: 7.0
    A pesar de ser el simple track más popular por parte de los fans por su buen ritmo, personalmente no me agrada por su pobreza en lírica, mas le doy mérito por su buen ritmo y técnica vocal de Katy.
    Teary Eyes: 6.0
    Parece el remix feliz de una balada triste, no suena bien cómo empieza con muchos "Have you ever.." como si fuera una clase de inglés xd. Sin embargo, el final fue muy bueno, con sus "keep on dancing", ahí sí encaja bien esa felicidad que se guardó Katy en casi toda la canción.
    Daisies: 7.0
    Esta canción suena muy bien, es como un Teary Eyes pero mejorado, ahí sí se muestra las ganas de salir adelante y su instrumental acompaña muy bien la voz de pesar que se puede escuchar al inicio y cuando Katy dice "Daises, daisies, daisies", y el final que muestra la energía y fuerza que tiene.
    Resiliente: 8.0
    Personalmente, tiene el mejor vídeo en TSS, a parte que la letra muestra mucha resilencia, fuerza y optimismo por parte de Katy, aunque no tenga el ritmo bailable de NRO, creo que su melodía y ritmo es aceptable, algo que quiero decir es que Katy pudo aprovechar mejor su técnica vocal.
    Not The End of the world: 8.0
    Ignorando su vídeo, el cual le hizo baja puntuación, pero no tanto ya que me parece aceptable considerando que fue después de dar a luz; esta sería la 2° mejor canción del álbum, con sonidos trap/pop muy fuertes y el coro impecable, su letra le da mucho empoderamiento a Katy, y letras como "si el cielo se cae, me agarro de una estrella" son las que Katy debería de componer más.
    Smile: 7.0
    Su vídeo fue muy buena, teniendo significado un tanto personal como las cosas que hacen feliz a Katy: Orlando Bloom, Daisy Dove Bloom, vencer los miedos y volver a tener a su fandom. Sin duda un gran vídeo, y la letra también es aceptable, sobre la canción, el instrumental se repite un poco pero la melodía me gustó, y combina bien musicalmente con la temática de clown.
    Champagne Problems: 7.0
    Me gusta como trata de cantar sobre los problemas de la relación, pero que sin importar eso siguen juntos, suena como a Orlando Bloom pero quién sabe. Su música es muy buena, bailable y su video en TSS dejó mucho que desear, el outfit de Katy fue hermoso, pero no hay más que ella bailando.
    Tucked: 7.5
    Su sonido es muy bailable, muy ella, amo cómo juega con la comida tratando de hablar de su dieta pero mostrándolo como una relación de infidelidad, y su final tiene un buen plot twist, por algo ella es la reina de los vídeos y Tucked la mejor de Smile. La técnica vocal fue agradable y estable.
    Harleys In Hawaii: 8.5
    Esta canción es muy sensual, y a pesar de ser lenta, es bailable y agradable de escuchar, muy pegajosa por su coro. El vídeo fue muy bueno, aunque pudo ser mejor. La voz de Katy se luce bien.
    Only Love: 7.0
    Una canción triste, lenta pero te da a pensar sobre el amor en estos tiempos, sobre como una persona no aprecia a todos, se vuelve más triste si decimos que esta fue una carta de Katy en sus malos momentos, pero logró superar eso y tener una sonrisa, hubiera sido un buen outro.
    What Makes A Woman: 7.0
    El vídeo fue bueno, me hizo llorar por todas esas historias, en especial lo hermoso que es la maternidad mostrada en TSS. La canción pudo tener un mejor ritmo, pero es aceptable para la letra que tiene de apreciar a la mujer por ser un perfecto misterio como ella dice, ella es feliz finalmente, por ser una mujer libre, por ser madre y ser ella misma.

    Smile: 6.5 / A pesar que el álbum nos trata de contar un tipo de historia de la sanación hacia la felicidad mediante el amor, siento que los ritmos no fueron iguales entre sí y la letra no resuelve la duda, parece como una playlist de ella si no sabes que es un álbum, sin embargo este ábum no fue malo después de todo, solo necesitaba tener un mejor enfoque y una temática ya planteada para TODAS las canciones.

    With Smile Katy Perry gets her smile back in a just amazing album with catchy songs that will make you smile and dance. Katy explores different styles and aesthetics and it's just amazing! I'm really sad that her label didn't promote the album because it's a bop.

    El álbum es bueno, algunas canciones demuestran el crecimiento del artista, otras no, pero tiene ese estilo único de la artista que la caracteriza, si bien podría sonar un poco como si aún estuviera estancada en el 2014 y ser algo aburridas, no hace que sea un mal álbum, pero si uno que se olvida con el tiempo, destacó de este "what makes a woman" y "resilient"

    Who is Katy Perry? The answer was supposedly revealed back in 2017, when the singer released Witness, her fourth studio album, and made a big deal out of insisting she had left her whimsical stage personas in the past, that she was now completely, authentically herself in her image and music. The results of that transformation were lackluster, with a listless album that lacked the sparkleWho is Katy Perry? The answer was supposedly revealed back in 2017, when the singer released Witness, her fourth studio album, and made a big deal out of insisting she had left her whimsical stage personas in the past, that she was now completely, authentically herself in her image and music. The results of that transformation were lackluster, with a listless album that lacked the sparkle that made so much of her earlier catalog addictive. Pop stars seeking longevity need to maintain a certain degree of adaptability (just ask Madonna). But when Perry claimed she was now the real Perry, unvarnished and honest, it had the opposite of its intended effect, somewhat hindering her ability to evolve and distancing her from her own prio… Expand

    Without fleeting moments of bad taste, Perry does indeed sound mature, but she's also not quite as fun. That's a conscious choice, though. Smile is intended to evoke memories of her frivolous younger days while pointing toward a sustainable pop future.

    While Perry finds the occasional moment of quality here (Smile and Tucked both feel like the best possible music we could get from Katy Perry in 2020), Smile is an album searching for an identity—and when it fails, it falls back on lazy writing.

    Like Joanne before Chromatica, Smile plays like a necessary centering exercise, indulging her insecurities and less surefire instincts. If Witness was overdetermined, Smile is an earnest exhale, for better or for worse. It delivers an image of her journey towards inner peace that is honest (if corny) and catchy (if not exactly inventive).
