Miley Cyrus Gets Raw and Emotional with New Single ‘More to Lose’ Ahead of Visual Album
Miley Cyrus is baring her soul with the release of her new single, "More to Lose," a deeply emotional ballad from her forthcoming visual album, Something Beautiful. The track, released on May 9th, offers a raw and unfiltered glimpse into heartbreak and the struggle to hold onto a relationship that's fading. The video is already creating buzz, showing a vulnerable side of the pop star.
Cyrus herself described the song's intention: “I never wanted ‘More to Lose’ to feel perfect, I wanted it to sound meaningful and emotional.” This sentiment is evident in both the song and its accompanying black-and-white music video, where she is seen in various high-fashion looks, including the eccentric outfit from the album cover, and tears stream down her face, embodying the song's lyrics.
The lyrics, such as "And you say it / But I wish it wasn't true, oh / I knew someday that one would have to choose / I just thought we had more to lose," resonate with anyone who has faced the difficult decision of letting go. The minimalist video enhances the song's emotional impact, emphasizing Cyrus's vocal delivery and the raw vulnerability of the lyrics.
"More to Lose" is the second official single from Something Beautiful, following "End of the World." The album, described as a "pop opera" and inspired by Pink Floyd's The Wall, is set to be released on May 30th. Cyrus previewed the accompanying film for fans at a Spotify event and will officially premiere it at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 6th. This visual component promises a unique and immersive experience, blending fantasy with Cyrus's signature musical style.
The singer debuted the track at Casa Cipriani in New York, revealing that some of her ex-lovers were in the audience. This candidness is characteristic of Cyrus, who has always maintained a strong connection with her fanbase. She acknowledged this bond, stating, "People say we grew up together, and we really did... it's cool to be in a room full of people I've never met... and, you know, you're not that strange."
With Something Beautiful, Miley Cyrus appears to be pushing creative boundaries and offering fans a deeply personal and visually stunning experience. "More to Lose" serves as a powerful introduction to this new era, showcasing her growth as an artist and her willingness to explore complex emotions.
