Billboard Track-by-track review:
Which songs are the best on “Stars Dance”? Read on for our track-by-track review of Selena Gomez’s latest.
1. Birthday– “Tell ’em that it’s my birthday/When I party like that,” Selena coos on “Stars Dance’s” club-ready opening track, named and sequenced to coincide with the singer’s 21st birthday on July 22, the eve of the album’s release. There are beats built around police sirens and a rallying cry of “party onnnn, baby!,” the proceedings never get more risqué than “blow your dreams, blow your dreams, blow your dreams away.”

Artistically, there’s very little Selena Gomez here. This is merely the veneer of Selena Gomez, the look and feel of the pop starlet set atop a middling musical effort. There are lightly emotional lyrics that appear to reference her high-profile romance with ex Justin Bieber, but it is surface stuff and less than revealing.
LA Times
“Stars Dance” is exactly the kind of album one makes in 2013 if you want to keep the pop sugar of the Disney tween cabal but mix in some broken glass and a club bathroom nosebleed. Its productions are rooted in today’s pop-EDM default mode, but as that stuff goes, “Slow Down” is pretty capable, and the bhangra-appropriating “Come & Get It” is guilelessly silly enough to work.
NY Daily News
“Stars Dance” — which has already ushered in Gomez’s first Top 10 single (“Come & Get It”) — offers a virtual master course in how to nick the styles of as many other pop stars as possible, all while skirting the laws of copyright infringement.
Rolling Stone
All work and no public meltdowns make Selena a dull girl. The Disney vet has dated – and, OMG, split from – Justin Bieber and released three LPs, all while remaining pop’s most ho-hum double threat. Stars Dance is her first album without her band, the Scene, and the first to feature orgasmic moans – see “Birthday,” featuring 16 seconds of what sure sounds like simulated sex.
