    Sadly her worst album with WITNESS. It's seems she never evolve. The only good songs are CRY ABOUT IT LATER & TEARY EYES. Maybe HIH. The rest is mediocre.

    Pasamos de tener exitos como I kissed a girl, o un album con cinco numeros 1, Bops como Dark Horse o Roar, pero esta vez Katy Perry no ha logrado superarse, quedo con recuerdos del 2013 y no ha sabido evolucionar en una industria que esta en cambios y revoluciones constantes, Perfy nos trae un Cliche que recuerda a los 2010

    Não me fez sorrir! :( o álbum todo dia perdido ao não saber qual rumo ele quer tomar, além de se apegar à frases clichês e sem qualquer aprofundamento. Parece um álbum inacabado que foi lançado em um momento oportuno (nascimento da filha e 10 anos de 'Teenage Dream') apenas por lançar sem qualquer propósito algum.

    Sin sentido con temas totalmente repetidos y aburridos. No hace falta comprarlo no vale la pena. Mejor que se dedique a ser mamá que para payasa ya está toda su carrera.

    best album ever!you know i started to be a katycat since the witness era the era that katy fell off i mean when everyone left her but yeah in the middle of that i became a katycat coz how she acts to her fans and how lovely she is,you know a sweet momma girl.i don't even know that time why they left katy?because of her haircut?dang it,it doesn't matter about looks it's about what is thebest album ever!you know i started to be a katycat since the witness era the era that katy fell off i mean when everyone left her but yeah in the middle of that i became a katycat coz how she acts to her fans and how lovely she is,you know a sweet momma girl.i don't even know that time why they left katy?because of her haircut?dang it,it doesn't matter about looks it's about what is the meaning of music and how she acts to everyone.is it because of that weird looking album?ya'll r tasteless,song isn't all about how it beats to me it is also a way to put a message u want to say to someone and when u listen to every witness song you will find what is the trully meaning of all it on.and witness passed and hey i am still here for katy until we knew that katy is pregnant and about to release this awaited album it was so beautiful i don't know just i am so happy for her coz she just pased all the bash and what society treats o her and that's because all of daisy dove.i am so proud of katy i love how he never left us katycats thru her depression era.if this smile album flopped again.well we don't care anymore we only focus to each other and for me that is the most important thing between artist and fans,i also love how she doesn't care about charts anymore,yeah what is charts for?for fame?for viral?for new fans?tsk who needs a lots or loads of fans when almost all of them are just there for trendy or just coz of ur looks,even katy will be forgotten by society i promise me and truly katycats will now we will always there for katy no matter what.… Expand

    Well once again we get another generic album from Perry as if it’s not the same album we’ve all heard for the past 10 years. We’re bored. The pop music is tuned to Katy pop lane that she’s afraid to step out of. Hopefully the smile era will bring more fun and excitement because the album isn’t doing it.

    think the music critics are so biased to katy. Why? This album is her best. Also, pitchfork told us that why now? Well the answer is its because we're in a pandemic and the songs fits nowadays. Also critics saying that it is uninspired. Maybe they don't know katy had gone through in the last 3 years

    Never Really Over and Harleys in Hawaii are the only songs that are still listenable for me, she is still experimenting but doesn’t change the fact that the album itself is trash. Although it might be slightly better than witness, this deserves a 0 because it is too generic pop music like 6 years ago. It’s not 2010,pc but 2020

    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).
