reflecting on her life in the spotlight. On Friday, the singer released her track “Used to Be Young,” her first follow-up since dropping her LPMuch of the scrutiny she faced inspired the new track she’s now released, which contains the lyrics, “I know I used to be crazy/Messed up but God was it fun/I know I used to be wild/It’s ’cause I used to be young.”
In a statement following the track’s release, Cyrus explained, “This song is about honoring who we’ve been, loving who we are and celebrating who we will become. I feel proud when reflecting on my past and optimistic when thinking about the future. She added, “I am grateful to my loyal fans who make my dreams a reality daily. I am sincerely thankful for the stability of your steadfast support. This song is for you.
When reflecting on the video, Miley said, “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.
Over the last few days, Cyrus has released excerpts about her speaking about the song’s significance to her journey.
