Miley Cyrus debuts new comeback single, ‘We Can’t Stop’: terrible or not bad?

Miley Cyrus

This morning saw the world premiere of Miley Cyrus’ new single, “We Can’t Stop,” on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show. Miley has been tweeting virtually nonstop about this song for weeks. This is the grand debut of the comeback that Miley predicted when she claimed “my new music is gonna shut everyone up.” Considering that she has 12 million followers, there’s a good chance that, regardless of quality, this song will be playing on heavy rotation on pop and gym-centric radio stations. And to be certain, this is not a good song at all even though it’s better than that Snoop Lion collaboration that came out a month ago. Here’s an audio version of the song, and you can judge for yourself:

The lyrics are pretty bad, aren’t they? “Shaking it like we’re at a strip club / remember only God can judge ya / against the haters cuz somebody loves ya / and everyone in line in the bathroom / trying to get [unintelligible] in the bathroom.” Mostly, this is background noise to be played in malls and on satellite radio. It’s not the worst thing I’ve ever heard, and it’s already stuck in my head, but damn, this is a boring song, and Miley lacks a versatile or distinctive voice even though I root for her as a person.

Of course, Miley is definitely using her sexuality to sell this song too … even if she said she’s too good for that.

    i want to know that too

    miley, why CAN’T you stop

    she’s everywhere and for no valid reason

    • Mia 4S says:

      +1000

      Those lyric are painful! When enormously privileged young people try to be hardcore it’s uniquely annoying.

    • KB says:

      Lol this comment made me laugh so hard

    • LadyBird83 says:

      Freaking horrible.

      • Lauren says:

        I listened to this whole track and it was Chipmunk reggae bong torture. The intro is too slow, and the whole song needs to be remixed at a higher speed. That may not work either…my ears are bleeding- the hillbilly bong twang is unbearable.

  2. Pixie says:

    This is terrible.

    • SheilaSheilaSheila says:

      Oh. Oh. I can’t even with the Borat outfit. Is she singing with a Carribean accent? And referencing “doing lines” in the bathroom? And who is the man with the slow motion demon voice in the background? Never mind. Don’t answer. I’ve already given this more thought then necessary. Just this: anyone who shows this much skin in the promotionals is doing music for all the wrong reasons.

    • Meredith says:

      To Lauren : yes, it’s too slow, dumb lyrics, etc.. I do like her voice though. Listen to her song “It’s the Climb” – beautiful voice when she uses it right which is rarely. When she sings crap like this or “Party in the USA”, the voice is wasted and pop-fluff.

  3. Reece says:

    I made to 52 secs. I’m out.

    • QQ says:

      You are a Better woman than I

      The Lot Lizard on a 1 pack a day habit voice is all i Dont Need

      I really wanna meet these people that see it for this chipmunk faced Twit, srly

    • Dinah says:

      I’m with you. Tuned out after the, “Can I get a hell no?”.

      Jezus, it’s the kind of sickening bubble- gum pop radio fare that make me crazy. I am so thankful my kids are beyond this genre.

      • Irishae says:

        We jumped ship at the same time. A part of me really wants Miley to succeed. One tends to be pretty self absorbed and make stupid look-at-me decisions at this age, but the awkward post-child star campaign to remind us that she has boobs and an asscrack is below her.

  4. GeeMoney says:

    Lame.

  5. SW says:

    It’s not bad, I wont change the station when its on, but I won’t be turning it up when it comes on either :/

    • db says:

      I actually like it – I couldn’t name one other song she’s written / sung or any of her TV roles – but it’s mainstream and will do well – good for her. No matter why they broke up – it’s a hard age and she’s better of working than throwing bongs off of a balcony!

  6. Ellie says:

    I kept expecting the beat to drop, or the song to start going faster, but no dice.

    Also, what is her obsession with saying her own name in songs, and is she glorifying doing lines in the bathroom in that one verse? Because if so, ew, and she always seemed like more of an herbal girl to me so I suspect it’s just for attention, the mention of cocaine.

    • JenD says:

      Saying her own name in songs probably is influenced by Snoop. A lot of singers like Drake, Jason Darulo (sp?), and Ludicrous say their names in their songs.

    • NM9005 says:

      Yes me too. It’s too slow. If it would’ve been a bit faster, it would’ve worked better to at least mindlessly dance to. Jlo is crap too but at least her beats are danceable. Sigh, I hoped Miley would slay but no. The lyrics are bad too.

    • Gabi says:

      Agree 100%! This song MIGHT be passable if it wasn’t so slow / had an actual beat. As is, it’s basically a ripoff of the Fun song “We are Young.” If Miley is hoping to “shut everyone up” she might want to stop overproducing her music & coming up with new ideas (also some better songwriting would be nice) Sorry Miley, not impressed 🙁

  7. JustaGirl says:

    She sounds like a little girl singing lyrics way beyond her age. Not good!

    (And yes, she’s of age. I’m just saying she sounds about 10 in this song.)

    • Migdalia says:

      Miley has always had a problem with diction and she needs to tune her vocals. I don’t think she knows one must exercise their vocals as much as their body.

  8. Annie says:

    She’s not going to happen. She’s been hanging on to fame for too long but she’s incapable of producing good music and is a terrible actress. She can’t compete with what us out there.

    • ctkat1 says:

      Seems that way, doesn’t it? I don’t know if her voice is that much worse than Ke$ha, Katy Perry, or Rihanna, but they are getting better songs offered to them. This song is crap.
      Katy Perry, especially, gets some amazing pop songs- just think if someone like Kelly Clarkson (or anyone with a big, strong voice) had gotten “Firework” or “Teenage Dream” or any of the others…

      As for acting- not a chance. The field of younger 20s actresses (Lawrence, Stewart, Stone, Woodley, Wasikowska, Ronan, etc. is so crowded she doesn’t have a shot.

      • brunettecoleman says:

        Kesha actually has a nice voice with a decent range. Her and Gaga are just obsessed with treating their voices so they can churn out club bangers like Katy Perry and rihanna.

      • Emily says:

        Katy Perry actually does a lot of the writing herself. She wrote “I do not hook up” for Kelly Clarkson.

      • ctkat1 says:

        Really? That’s cool that Katy writes. I saw that documentary she put out about herself, and I remember that her first album was really different than what she does now- I can’t remember if she wrote those songs or not…

    • Claudia says:

      Katy Perry actually writes or co-writes all of her songs, she’s a very talented songwriter. There are some of her early songs online before she was signed, they’re more in the vein of young Alanis Morissette and really very good. And as mentioned, she wrote I Do Not Hook Up as well as Long Shot for Kelly Clarkson.

  9. TheOriginalKitten says:

    Like all of her music, this song makes me want to punch a wall.

    • marie says:

      haha, thought that was just me. I’d be mad if I paid money for it.

    • QQ says:

      Ditto

    • j.eyre says:

      The way she she goes up and down and back up to end her line during the chorus, she sounds like my children did at age 3 asking for something:
      can I have A cooKIE?

      Something nice: I like the “la-da-da-dee” line – that is kind of fun.

      • KB says:

        I used to have a friend that spoke like that. Every sentence ended with a higher-pitched tone like she was asking a question. It drove me CRAZY? Haha

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        This is how the Kim Kardashian and Paris Hiltons of the world talk and it infuriates me to no end because they are breeding a generation of women who sound entirely childlike an unassertive.
        It’s not cute.

  10. BreeinSEA says:

    She will never he edgy or raw. Shes manufactured and you can just feel it in the lack of talent she has for any originality. I’d be embarrassed to be her friends and pretend this is any good.

    • Belle Epoch says:

      YES!!! ^^^ Absolutely 100% no-talent manufactured in the studio auto-tuned voice modulated whatever they could throw at it. What an overworked POS.

      This song is the musical equivalent of trying to revive a dead body using heroic measures but the person dies anyway

      • TheOneAndOnly says:

        Exactly and that goes for all these pop stars – I think i’ll go listen to zeppelin’s Kashmir to get this forgetable noise out of my head.

    • chibichichai says:

      It’s like she is trying to be the white Rhianna. Not being racist, she is just trying to pull off the same thug life, pot smoking, sex kitten life-stlye that rhianna does on a daily basis. However, she is really try hard.

  11. Abs says:

    With everything that’s been going on lately I’ve actually stopped thinking of her as a “singer”, I kind of forgot that she’s meant to be a *performer*. Like now she’s just some chick who tweets and does Pilates and is in the spotlight for her all of her relationship dramz.

  12. Tessa says:

    I kept expecting an actual vocal to start and for the song to pick up and really fly, but it never happened. The whole song felt like the bridge to a much better song that should have been written. Bad.

  13. Itsa Reallyme says:

    How are her boobs so saggy at her age? Mine didn’t get that bad until after I breastfed multiple children. Maybe it’s because she never wears a bra?

    • unmade_bed says:

      You must have tiny triangle breasts. Other people are shaped differently. Accept it.

      • Itsa Reallyme says:

        I would say she has tiny triangle breasts. Accept it.

      • Zoid says:

        I take offense to the ‘tiny triangle breasts’ comment. She’s obviously at least a B cup ish. Why does so much of the public think B cups are so small, when 50 years ago it was the average cup size for females. Sheesh. At least she hasn’t felt pressured into getting fakers yet.

      • unmade_bed says:

        Hey Zoid…I don’t think Miley’s breasts are small or saggy. The fact that the original poster expects women’s breasts to be even more perky than what is shown in these photos is weird to me.

    • Eleonor says:

      My opinion it’s because of all the weight loss.

      • Amelia says:

        Firstly, she’s sort of pulling down on whatever the hell it is she’s wearing.
        Secondly, ‘saggy’ is a little extreme.
        Lastly, I’d agree a minute amount of sagging is down to weight loss. After I got unhealthily thin and came back to a normal weight, for a while I had pitta-bread boobs.

    • KB says:

      I actually love that she’s got some natural sag. I’ve had natural double D’s since I was 15, so I love seeing celebs with some sag! I hope she doesn’t resort to plastic surgery to be another Hollywood starlet with “perfect” boobs.

      • Itsa Reallyme says:

        My point was that I wouldn’t be showcasing my sag. She needs to cover up.

      • KB says:

        Right, but why? What’s wrong with a little sag? I find it less offensive than showcasing an unrealistic perky bust. Boobs are fat, they sag. I think we should embrace it as beautiful just as we would young perky boobs. Again, I say this as someone with a large natural bust that sags, so I am 110% biased!

      • Irishae says:

        Agreed. Fake boobs have really warped our perceptions. Strange, since I don’t know of anyone who popped out of their mothers with a set of silicone in place. God forbid they actually make contact with with skin, which has now become an automatic indication of “sag.” By that definition I guess Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry, Jessica Chastain, Katy Perry, Amanda Seyfried, etc. all have saggy boobs and should cover up.

    • Enn says:

      They’re not saggy, a lot of people’s breasts are fuller on bottom and look like that. Mine have since I was 18. You can say a lot about the girl but let’s not pick apart her breasts, which are (still, for now) natural.

      • SheilaSheilaSheila says:

        The fact that her song was released with revealing photos that invite speculation about her breasts does not speak highly of the music quality. Not that body-shaming is ever okay. But maybe this could be resolved by wearing actual clothes & releasing good music?

      • unmade_bed says:

        Thank you, Enn. Miley’s breasts look fine and normal to me. If they were any perkier, they’d point straight out like little cones, which is not normal. Unrealistic body comments are so bad for the collective female psyche.

      • blaize says:

        We’re so used to seeing famous women who use surgery, push-up bras, and tape to perk up their boobs that when we see a woman’s boobs as they naturally are, free of enhancements and bras, that they seem saggy to us by comparison.

      • KB says:

        SheilaSheilaSheila: I think it’s more about the environment she’s releasing music in, her peers are who? Katy Perry, Rihanna, Gaga, Selena Gomez, maybe? They’ve all got sexed up images. Most of them don’t wear pants, and Selena has even been sexing it up with her Spring Breakers movie. She’s got to make a splash and she doesn’t have the voice to carry her – according to the opinion of many – so she takes a little off. I’m not saying it’s right, I completely disagree with it.

        But we need to keep in mind that she’s not just some wh**e that wants to show you her bits, she’s under pressure from people with more power than her. And she’s young, with some questionable people she should be able to turn to for advice. Or maybe she wants to sell records so she took off her bra…either way, we don’t know for sure. I think we should give her and other young women the benefit of doubt. Maybe some don’t deserve it, but others might.

      • blaize says:

        @KB: I don’t think we should be labeling ANYONE a whore for the way they dress or for posing nude/semi-nude, whether male or female. A person has the right to wear whatever they want. I know that there are people who are scandalized by nudity or lots of visible skin, but that still doesn’t justify calling someone a whore just because we don’t like something they wore or a picture they took. Slut-shaming has no place in a tolerant and open-minded society. Let’s leave that to more fundamentalist and extremist societies.

      • KB says:

        @blaize: I agree. Did you fully read what I said? I didn’t label anyone a whore.

    • Adrien says:

      Her breasts aren’t saggy. Maybe we’re not used to seeing natural breasts.

  14. Krissie says:

    She says “trying to get a line in the bathroom” like a line of the bad stuff. Dancing with Molly too lmao what a fool

  15. Christin says:

    Hope she invests her money wisely. I don’t think she will be one of the few exceptions (a child star who develops a solid career for their adulthood).

    • I'm feeling SOOOO old... says:

      Agree!
      I feel like one of those crotchety old people who shake their fists at the neighborhood kids for riding bikes in their lawns (“Street Youths” for those New Girl fans!), but I really think it would be best for her to go to school / find something else to do outside of Hollywood because this whole EVERYTHING these past few months is just sad and embarrassing. It’s even actually *gasp – I hate myself for this* making me feel kinda bad for Liam…

      • Christin says:

        It must be like an addiction to the attention for some of them. Liam looked like he checked out long ago. I hope to be proven wrong, but it looks like she will be another LeAnn in 10 years. Peaked as a teen and still trying to be relevant however possible.

  16. Julia says:

    The lyrics is AWFUL. And her voice doesn’t help either.
    Nothing different from all the pop music in the radio nowadays.

  17. Itsa Reallyme says:

    Oh, and I think those shots of her are nasty. It’s more than a little sad that the only way she feels she can get attention is to basically show all her stuff. It’s just so incredibly gross to me. shudder

    • Christin says:

      She seems like an overrated, mixed up young woman. She created negative publicity in her teen years with various suggestive photos that surfaced. It is sad that she wants to use that angle.

    • anon33 says:

      THIS. I can practically see inside her babymaker in that one shot. Not to mention that the photo just isn’t sexy at all.

    • blaize says:

      I disagree, but maybe I’m biased. My views about nudity and partial nudity have always been very liberal, so you can show me a picture of any naked or half-naked celebrity or model in Hollywood and I’ll never feel outrage, sadness, or disgust about it. I guess I just ‘don’t get it’. When I see some naked or half-naked celebrity or model, whether they’re male or female, my reaction will always be either neutral, or I’ll see it as cute, funny, beautiful, sexy, or artistic. I’ll never see it as a bad thing.

  18. Eleonor says:

    Low budget Britney Spears.

    • Dutch says:

      Wow that’s kinda cold since Brit-Brit has never been considered high-dolla y’all.

      • Eleonor says:

        Actually some of Brit Brit’s hits are very catchy, and even if they aren’t good,you can’t get them out of your head, like “Womanizer”.
        Yes it’s manufactered, but in a better way, like she has better collaborators, better everything. This sounds like a song that never starts.

  19. littlestar says:

    It’s somewhat catchy. I can see the 20 year olds who like to club enjoying this song. But man, I would not have known that was Miley Cyrus singing. Her voice is so auto-tuned and bland sounding.

    • brunettecoleman says:

      Please give 20 year olds who pile to club a little credit. I would straight up leave a place if this was dropped. 16 year olds who want to get into clubs on the other hand…

      • littlestar says:

        Haha, you’re right. I should give more credit to the 20 year old clubbers out there :D. I haven’t been in that scene for so long, I don’t know what they listen to anymore!

  20. "It's Miley, Miley" (Not Really ;)) says:

    This song is just BEGGING to be featured in a mash-up video with Rebecca Black’s “Friday”. Please, someone out there, make this happen!! 😀

    (Seriously, though, listen to the two songs — if you can safely handle doing so, mentally and emotionally — back to back. I’m not making any accusations or anything, but they are weirdly similar (and not in the best of ways), aren’t they?)

  21. eliza says:

    This girl has become the poster child for Try Too Hard.

  22. heatheradair says:

    I’ll say it once, then pretend I never said it:

    (i like it).

    Sort of “stick-in-your-head” pop-catchy.

    but to parrot everyone else’s sentiments: girl is so try-hard-ee it’s eye-roll inducing. We get it already.

    Now put the side-vag away, dear.

    • KB says:

      Yeah, I’m not crazy about it, but I haven’t been able to get “and we can’t stop, and we won’t stop” out of my head since I heard it.

  23. Relli says:

    To my homegirls here with the big butts!??!

    She really is a lyrical genius!

    Also what is with all these young people acting like everyone is hating on their youth, partying and individuality? I just find it so odd and hilarious.

    • blaize says:

      Miley Cyrus HAS gotten a lot of unnecessary hate over the years though. Really hateful stuff- being called trash, being slut-shamed, being told that she should die, being told that she should kill herself, being told that if she gets raped it’s her fault, or that she deserves to be raped so that she’ll put some clothes on, and some other gross things that I won’t mention. So I think she can accurately say that she has haters. People (mostly conservative and/or religious people, but not just them) have been really upset about Miley’s transition from the 13-year-old purity-ring-wearing disney girl who dressed modestly, said she would wait until marriage, and was obedient to adults. Apparently people don’t realize that teenagers are changing people, and that having all that ‘purity’ shoved down your throat at a young age and being made to feel like you’re a bad person the first time (and every time) you wear or do something that goes against that fake ‘purity’ can make a girl want to rebel. Those people apparently also don’t realize that your average teenager or college-aged young adult- inside or outside of Hollywood- is not abstaining from sex, dressing modestly, abstaining from suggestive dance moves, abstaining from weed, AND waiting until they’re 21 to drink. The standards she was held to at 14 go against human nature and are difficult to live up to.

      • Tiffany :) says:

        But I feel like the “really hateful stuff” is par for the course for a celeb on twitter. Do you really think she gets more hate than the average celeb?

      • blaize says:

        It’s true that some celeb hate is normal, and that all of them get it. But some get it worse than others, and
        I do think Miley is one of them. She’s been getting the slut-shaming/death/rape comments since she was 15, on E, yahoo, deviantart, and many other sites and blogs. The comments come from people of all ages, including middle-aged right-wing bloggers. I guess that last part shouldn’t be surprising, since conservatives are notorious for slut-shaming and blaming women for rape.

        That doesn’t all sound like your usual celeb hate. I’m the same age as her, so if I were a celebrity now and I got those comments, I would understand them for what they are: The direct result of a bigoted, woman-hating society that is still harboring the backward notion that the female sex is ‘supposed’ to be ‘sexually pure’ (barf!). But if I had gotten those comments at 17, 16, or 15, I would have been really depressed about it. I was very sensitive then.

  24. JenD says:

    How is appearing in the swimsuit – and pulling it like that to accentuate the boobs – not selling her sexuality? I’m a little embarrassed for her.

  25. LurkeeLee says:

    I hear she has a new duet coming out with Justin Bieber. It is titled ‘Toked out and Auto Tuned’. Another single will be ‘Please Lord, I Need a Bra’. Both will be featured on Bieber’s upcoming album titled ‘I Spit on all the Peasants’. Look for it all, coming soon.

  26. Enn says:

    Is it supposed to be a dance track? The tempo is excruciating and the autotuning is awful. The girl can sing, so I don’t know why she insists on this prepackaged nonsense. Have you seen the clip of her singing Jolene on YouTube?

    http://youtu.be/XLuiTLHNL4I

    • Tiffany :) says:

      I REALLY hate Miley’s voice…except when she is singing country or country-adjacent songs. Her Bob Dylan cover of “You’re Going to Make Me Lonesome When You Go” actually sounded really good.

      I think she sounds best when she works with the natural twang in her voice and pronounciation than when she tries to pretend it isn’t there.

      • Enn says:

        I was thinking today that she should release a country album. She could probably work with some great writers and be a decent crossover artist.

  27. diva says:

    It will probably do well cause music sucks now a days and this is the type of six that sells. She is extremely try hard.

  28. dorothy says:

    Her desperation to remain relevant has just become so sad and pathetic.

  29. Daahling says:

    I need to listen to some Melissa Gorga to top off this musical treat.

  30. Lucy says:

    It’s not the WORST I’ve ever heard, but I’m still getting Rebecca Black vibes. So, um…yeah, not good. Nothing groundbreaking. She’s no Ke$ha, really. Had she sticken to the acoustic style she used to have, she’d actually sound good. This, however…

  31. virginia5 says:

    this song has pretty terrible lyrics :/ “shoutout to her homegirl with big butts” wtf!

  32. Nerd Alert says:

    So, I like it better than any Taylor Swift song I’ve heard.

    Not a compliment.

    So, honestly. Is this just a really slow dance song? It’s about partying, doing drugs and dancing all night right? Why is it so slow? I couldn’t dance to that bpm even if it were a good song. RAGE BLACKOUT.

    • KB says:

      Haha! People are saying it might be okay in a club, but who could dance to this?

      • Nerd Alert says:

        That’s my question. Assuming one has terrible taste in “music” and doesn’t mind autotune or Miley’s voice…how does one DANCE to this song? Reallllly slowwwly, right?

        I bet the dance version ends up being a remix.

  33. Skins says:

    Is it me, or is she trying to sound like Rhianna? Either way, it is not as epically bad as her version of “Rebel Yell” at the VH1 thing, but it is close. Sorry Miley

  34. Scarlett says:

    I could not make it through the song…horrible lyrics, terrible autotuned and synthetic quality. The whole thing is much too desperate to appear edgy. I also feel that she and her new image are over exposed and people are just sick of her. She’s definately not made for movies and I doubt her music career will gain much steam. Her best bet is some kind of tv comedy.

  35. Ruyana says:

    Miley should just stop with the try-hard sex goddess act. It’s kind of gross.

  36. Hunny says:

    what a BORING song, come on, u can do better.

  37. Dedrie says:

    This is our rules

    And we can’t stop
    And we won’t stop
    Can’t you see it’s we who own the night
    Can’t you see it we who bout’ that life

    And we can’t stop
    And we won’t stop
    We run things
    Things don’t run we
    Don’t take nothing from nobody

    It’s our party we can do what we want
    It’s our party we can say what we want
    It’s our party we can love who we want
    We can kiss who we want
    We can screw who we want

    It’s our party we can do what we want to
    It’s our house we can love who we want to
    It’s our song we can sing we if we want to
    It’s my mouth I can say what I want to
    Yea, Yea, Yea…

    It’s my cup I can drink what I want to
    It’s our life we can live how we want to
    Its one night we can do what we want to
    Be alone if we want to but we don’t want to

    And we can’t stop
    And we won’t stop
    Can’t you see it’s we who own the night
    Can’t you see it we who bout’ that life

    And we can’t stop
    And we won’t stop
    We run things
    Things don’t run we
    Don’t take nothing from nobody
    Yea, Yea, Yea
    We can do what we want to
    Do what we want to

      I can’t believe Miley’s mom, Tish, is applauding (on Twitter) her daughter’s new song, with its promotion of cocaine use, among other things.

    • Batman is a perv says:

      Saddest part this was most likely written by 5 people.

    • Ruyana says:

      When you *read* the lyrics they sound like a perfect theme song for Lindsay.

  38. Dedrie says:

    Turnt; urban dictionary the nicer definations;
    Smoking or Smoked. Process of either being or getting stoned/high.

  39. Lauren says:

    It’s better than Selena Gomez song released in May ‘This Love’. It is funny how some people are saying Miley is trying to make herself happen etc and won’t get far with no talent. I am not even a fan of Miley but i believe she has way better vocal talent than Selena who the media keeps trying to tell us is some wholesome good girl next door/ great actress and singer. I’ve heard Miley sing folk songs and I think that maybe better suited for her over the manufactured pop songs. I honestly hope she keeps trying and working at it until she finds her niche.

  40. Saor says:

    I’m actually embarrassed for her after hearing this.

  41. Lu says:

    We can’t stop taking our clothes off for attention…

    or making BAAAAAAAD copies of Rihanna…blech!

  42. Itsjustblanche. says:

    I’m not goIng to lie: I listened to this on the toilet. In hindsight it seems appropriate.

  43. serena says:

    It may be dumb -sure it is- but I kind of like this song, it has a nice rhythm.
    What I don’t like is that she talks about cocaine like it’s something cool and she stripped down while she said ‘she didn’t need it’. yeah, sure.

  44. Emily C. says:

    Like we’re at a strip club?!

    She’s going through that stage of trying to be so very adult, and it’s so very immature, and embarrassing, and selling herself very short. Did I mention embarrassing? Everything about Miley’s embarrassing now. Ugh.

  45. mwow says:

    Someone wants to be Rihanna!

  46. blaize says:

    It’s alright. It probably won’t be a hit though. She sounds like she’s trying to be Rihana. I agree with the person who said she sings better than Selena Gomez, but hopefully these last two songs that she released aren’t what her entire album will be like.

    • thebutlerdidit says:

      It hit platinum sales 14 hrs after release, so I’d say that was a pretty spectacular release, myself.

  47. Veronica says:

    I don’t think Miley even knows who she is. I see her as an immature, spoiled, entitled, and willful child who has lived and worked under an assumed persona her whole life. The Hannah persona wasn’t her. The innocent Christian girl persona she created when she wasn’t being Hannah also wasn’t her. The sexy kitten persona she created after the innocent Miley persona wasn’t her. And her current punk/sexy persona isn’t her either. I could say Miley should just stop and be herself but I don’t think she knows who “herself” is. The BEST thing this girl could do for herself at this point is to take some of that money and travel for a year. Just travel. Visit faraway places and read lots of books and try lots of foods and commune with nature. No cameras, no fame, no boyfriends, no agents, no mom and dad. Just Miley on a plane.

  48. lori says:

    No wonder Liam wants out…..can’t say he’s going about it in a good way….but no wonder he wants out.

  49. Noi says:

    the only good part of this song is the beat

  50. Camille (TheOriginal) says:

    I only managed a few seconds of it, it was all I could stand. Her ‘singing’ voice is terrible! HORRIBLE- make it stop!

  51. Sarah says:

    This is a lame attempt to mix “inspirational” lyrics with a reggae twang set to a slow summer jam. Its almost a knockoff version a Pink song. Miley needs to work on her annunciation because without written lyrics I can’t understand a word shes saying in the bridge. Not to say what shes singing would make any sense.

  52. Nicolette says:

    Awful, just awful.

  53. menlisa says:

    Run Liam. Run.

  54. IrishGirl says:

    Oh boy…that was torture. I kept waiting for it to get better and it just…didn’t. Miley Cyrus makes Rebecca Black look like Joni Mitchell.

  55. Jane says:

    I guess when you are loaded with $$$ you can put out cra* and try to sell it. This is bad…

  56. Beatriz says:

    “Shaking it like we’re at a strip club / remember only God can judge ya “–ugh that made me cringe, so ridiculous.
    The song is really mediocre, I’m actually surprised, because Pharrell is usually so awesome (or N.E.R.D. is at least)…this just seems like a carbon-copy of a Rihanna song (and a bad one at that).

  57. vee says:

    “Hilly Billy Bong Twang” ::::hahahahahaha:::

  58. mirwren says:

    Never thought she could sing, never will.

  59. Adrien says:

    She has no sex appeal at all however Maxim tries to tell us so. She’s like P!nk. At least Pink is not selling herself as a hot sex symbol. Erase that, I find Pink hot and attractive. Miley’s like 90’s fitness guru, Susan Powter.

    And musically, Miley can do better:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOwblaKmyVw

    She’s good at country. That’s the style she should be doing.

  60. GSE says:

    Does the big M remind anyone else of what Madonna did on one of her recent albums?

  61. Canada Guy says:

    After listening to this song while reading comments (the only reason I stuck around), I think its safe to say that the only way Miley is gonna pull anymore regular paychecks is with a Hannah Montana goes to college series.

  62. anoninternettroll says:

    sorry, i like it. besides some of ya’ll are straight lying as you guiltily listen to this song in 5pm rush hour traffic, singing it loudly in your car with your windows rolled up. Miley is just doing what is expected of her. she never claimed to be Siouxsie Sioux or Grace Jones even. she’s a pop star whose appeal is towards teenage girls and young women. not sure why half of you are trying to pretend like your tastes are so obscure since you are likely to go buy this song on iTunes in a few weeks. Do yourselves a favor and go make fun of some hipsters.

  63. Ming says:

    miley comes across as a try hard, thirsty wanna be rihanna. sorry but smoking blunts and showing your body doesn’t translate to awesome recording artist.

  64. MCD525 says:

    You do realize the lyrics are “everybody in line for the bathroom/trying to get a line in the bathroom.” But never fear…only God can judge your use of cocaine.
