Miley Cyrus releases official single from new album
"This gives Abba vibes and I'm in love!" Miley Cyrus is saving pop culture with her new hit.
No, it's not really the end of the world, but if it were, we would want to hang with Miley Cyrus because she will be throwing a party like Paul McCartney.
"End of the World" was trending on Twitter on Thursday shortly after the 32-year-old dropped the first official single off her upcoming album, 'Something Beautiful'.
Many social media users wondered if the trending topic meant that the world was really coming to an end.
But no, it was just Cyrus debuting one of the best songs of her career.
"Let's spend the dollars you've been savin' on a Mercedes-Benz / And throw a party like McCartney with some help from my friends / Yeah, let's go down to Malibu and watch the sun fade out once more / Show me how you'd hold me if tomorrow was comin' for sure / Let's pretend it's not the end of the world," she sings.
The singer's fans say the song is reminiscent of the ABBA era.
"I have a feeling this album is going to pay homage to a lot of classics! This gives Abba vibes and I'm in love!" one person wrote on YouTube.
Another added: "It gives 70s pop vibes in the absolute best way possible and I’m living for it!"
A third commented: "Miley Cyrus is saving pop culture. Every song is hit after hit."
Three days before the single's release, Cyrus shared a music video for the album's title track, 'Something Beautiful'.
She also released the visuals for 'Prelude', which is in spoken word format.
Speaking to Harper's Bazaar in November last year, Cyrus says her new album is visual as much as it is musical.
"It was inspired by Pink Floyd’s 'The Wall'. We really leaned in. And so I have this heart-first attachment to it. My idea was making The Wall, but with a better wardrobe and more glamorous and filled with pop culture.”
"Something Beautiful' is due for release on May 30.
