![]() The electronic undercurrent, the deep bass, and her raspy voice creates a song that’s somewhat mysterious and grim, but in the best way possible. Seductive and distorted, she uses this track to declare her independence. Gimme What I Wantįilled with glitchy basslines and a timeless beat, Cyrus tells us that if someone can’t satisfy her, she’ll go ahead and do it herself. It’s your standard pop hit with a twist of disco, and it’s catchy enough to keep me coming back for more. In comparison to other songs, it does seem to be the most mainstream sound to come out of Plastic Hearts. Echoing Olivia Newton-John’s ‘Physical’ in the chorus, the two of them sing about feeling trapped by that one person you can’t get off your mind. Miley Cyrus and Dua Lipa are a match that not many had thought of before, but it’s one that just works. ‘Angels Like You’ might just be the best ballad we’ve seen in her career so far. The chorus is flawless and made for the arenas in every concert, there’s that song that just hits different live, and I think this is the one. The more you play the song, the more tortured and sincere it becomes. ![]() It shows a side to Cyrus that is evocative, emotional, and reflective, as she pulls away from a relationship, acknowledging she has no real reason to. This soft, acoustic rock ballad feels almost strange after the forces that are ‘WTF Do I Know’ and ‘Plastic Hearts’, but the more mellow sound is a comfortable break. If you want a song that shows you Miley has found her sound, this is the one. It’s easy to listen to and is incredibly catchy. She allows herself to get gritty, whilst incorporating softer tones as she longs to feel something real. With an intro that references ‘Sympathy for the Devil’ by The Rolling Stones, this track is one of many that allow Cyrus’s musical influences to seep into the songs. Catchy, punky, and angry, ‘WTF Do I Know’ is one of the album’s best songs-and it’s only just begun. She’s unapologetic about moving on and wanting to be with someone else, easily interpreted as a drag against her ex-beau, Liam Hemsworth. With punchy bass lines and lyrics that poke fun at tabloid gossip, it’s the pop-punk side of Cyrus we’ve never seen before. ![]() The opening track is an anthem of defiance that sets the tone for Plastic Hearts, kicking it off as she means to go on. The 12-song album, gladly stretched into 15 thanks to a remix and two live covers, brings a rock and roll edge while preserving the Cyrus we all know. Not many albums could feature Billy Idol, Joan Jett, Stevie Nicks and Dua Lipa in under 40 minutes and get away with it. It’s a rock album, and Miley Cyrus wants you to know it.Ĭyrus has been genre-hopping for a while now, and Plastic Hearts is perhaps the most fun to witness. Plastic Hearts, released on 27 th November 2020, isn’t just any album. ![]()
