Rank: “New Romantics”

“New Romantics” is a perfect upbeat love song, much like the majority of the “Lover” album. “Lover” has a consistent theme, and it’s a beautiful ode to love in all its forms — romantic, familial, friendly, self, and lost. “Lover” is fun (“I Think He Knows,” “Paper Rings), sad (“Soon You’ll Get Better,” “The Archer”), political (“The Man,” “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince), and reflective (“Cornelia Street,” “Afterglow”) without feeling unfocused or busy. The only thorn in its side is “ME!” but the album as a whole proves it’s better than its worst single.
