Miley Cyrus Releases New Song ”Used To Be Young”
American singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus released a new song ”Used To Be Young” along with a music video on August 25, 2023.
The song is her first music since the eighth studio album ”Endless Summer Vacation”, which was released back in March.
The track was written by Miley Cyrus and Gregory Aldae Hein. Produced by Michael Pollack and Shawn Everett.
Miley Cyrus said of the song, “These lyrics were written almost 2 years ago at the beginning of my ESV. It was at a time I felt misunderstood. I have spent the last 18 months painting a sonic picture of my perspective to share with you. The time has arrived to release a song that I could perfect forever. Although my work is done, this song will continue to write itself everyday. The fact it remains unfinished is a part of its beauty. That is my life at this moment.... unfinished yet complete.”
She added, ”This song is about honoring who we’ve been, loving who we are & celebrating who we will become. I feel proud when reflecting on my past and joyful when thinking about the future.”- The accompanying music video was directed by Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter.
She said of the video, “It’s super emotional because I am kind of a mini-me of my mom and I could see her inside of the camera by using a technology where I could livestream with my mom from inside of the camera. So, we could see each other and as she was dancing it just made me cry, it made me laugh, it brought up so many real emotions and I think it’s really letting people into true emotion, which I don’t feel we get to see very much these days.” -
