Lover (1 X Blue Vinyl / 1 X Pink Vinyl )

Brand new sealed double album 1 X Blue  Vinyl /  1  X  Pink Vinyl housed in a gatefold cover.

Lover is the seventh studio album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, released on August 23, 2019, via Republic Records. It is Swift's first album after parting ways with her former label, Big Machine Records. Motivated by her positive experience on her Reputation Stadium Tour (2018), Swift sought to make an album with bright and lighter tones focusing on the foundational strengths of her songcraft, recalibrating from the dark trope of its predecessor, Reputation (2017).

Swift enlisted producers Jack Antonoff, Louis Bell, Frank Dukes, and Joel Little, and recorded the album akin to her live performances, emulating concert-based vocals. Described by her as "a love letter to love itself", the lyrical scope of Lover covers all facets of love, ranging from contentment, infatuation, endearment, lust, and heartache, to political themes such as feminism, equality, and disillusionment. Its music is retro-styled pop, combining synth-pop, electropop, and pop rock with country, punk, funk, and folk elements, characterized by upbeat arrangements, midtempo rhythms, atmospheric synthesizers, and dreamy textures. The album features guest vocals from the Chicks and Brendon Urie, and employs a summer festivity-inspired aesthetic.

Four singles supported the album: "Me!", "You Need to Calm Down", "Lover", and "The Man", the first three of which reached the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. All of the album's 18 tracks charted on the Hot 100, breaking the all-time female record for the most simultaneous entries. Lover topped the charts in Australia, Canada, Mexico, Norway, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and several others. It was Swift's sixth number-one album on the US Billboard 200 and was certified double platinum. Selling 3.2 million copies in 2019, Lover was the best-selling studio album of the year and made Swift the world's best-selling musician of 2019.

Critics reviewed Lover positively, mostly praising its emotional evolution and free-spirited style, although some found it sonically sprawling and inconsistent. At the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards, Lover was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album, while its singles "You Need to Calm Down" and "Lover" contested for Best Pop Solo Performance and Song of the Year, respectively. The album won Favorite Pop/Rock Album at the American Music Awards of 2019, and out of 17 MTV Video Music Award nominations, its music videos garnered four wins. Lover was named amongst the best albums of 2019 in the year-end lists by various publications. An ABC concert special, called Taylor Swift: City of Lover, aired on May 15, 2020.
