Lovestrong (stylized as lovestrong.) is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Christina Perri. It was released on June 10, 2011, via Atlantic Records. After premiering on So You Think You Can Dance, the lead single "Jar of Hearts" peaked on the Billboard Hot 100 at 17 and was certified double platinum by the RIAA. The second single, "Arms", didn't find as much success on the charts, but was critically acclaimed for its happier tone and music video. Lovestrong also saw multiple promotional singles released onto the iTunes Store: "The Lonely", "Penguin", "Tragedy", and "Bluebird".
The album received mixed reviews, with critics praising Perri's honeyed vocals but criticizing her serviceable approach towards melodies and the album's wearying focus on love and heartbreak. Many critics compared Perri's vocals to those of Ingrid Michaelson, Sara Bareilles, Natalie Merchant, and a "depressive" Colbie Caillat.
