    Miley Cyrus pushes pause on the present in order to reflect on the past today (August 25th), with the release of her emotionally charged new single, “Used To Be Young”.

    Marking the singers first material since the launch of her eighth, and most recent album, “Endless Summer Vacation”, the poignant track sees Cyrus make many a pointed reference to her public persona, as she tries to grapple with the realities of growing up in the public eye.

    In a detailed press release, outlining the message an inspiration behind the song, Miley says: “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.”

    “This song is about honouring 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. 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.”

    Switching her focus to the track’s accompanying music video, directed by Jacob Bixenman (Troye Sivan) and Brendan Walter (Shawn Mendes), Cyrus adds: “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.”
