It was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting one million album-equivalent units (including albums sales, streaming and track-equivalent units) sold in the United States. Elsewhere, the album also charted within the top ten of twenty territories, including Canada, Brazil, France, Mexico and Australia. Revival debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, marking Gomez's second consecutive number-one album in the United States, following Stars Dance (2013). The album was included in several year-end best music lists by publications. Upon its release, Revival received positive reviews from music critics, many of whom praised its production, lyrical content, and sultry sound. Lyrically, the album discusses themes of love and confidence. Revival is primarily a dance-pop and electropop record, that is connected by a tropical beach sound. As executive producers, Gomez, Danny D and Tim Blacksmith collaborated with Hit-Boy, Rock Mafia, and Stargate to achieve Gomez's new desired sound. The album reflects her journey since 2013, including the media scrutiny of her personal life. Gomez co-wrote twelve of its sixteen tracks. The record was influenced by a range of artists, particularly Christina Aguilera and her album Stripped (2002). Preparation for the album began in 2014, when Gomez left her previous label Hollywood Records. It was released on October 9, 2015, by Interscope and Polydor Records, her first album released through that label.
Revival is the second solo studio album by American singer Selena Gomez.
