Los Angeles, there is a certain energy to the night that you can kind of feel trouble boil up to the surface, and it is very inspiring to me.” And in the nighttime, it feels like there is a slinky, seediness and kind of a grime, but a glamour at the same time. In the evening, it’s a great time for rest, a time to recover – or it’s a time to go out and experience the wild side. The AM to me is representing the morning time, where there is a buzz and an energy and a there’s potential of new possibilities.

[March 10, 2023] The internet is in complete chaos has the singer has returned with a bang and even more bangers. Miley Cyrus has finally released her long awaited album Endless Summer Vacation after previously releasing the music video for "Flowers".

What is Miley Cyrus singing about in 'River'? Inside the lyrics of the pop star's latest hit from her eighth studio album.

You’re just like a river (Ooh, ooh, ooh) You're just like a river (Ooh, ooh, ooh) Throughout the track she uses water imagery with the song acting as one big metaphor.

Fans of Miley Cyrus have picked up on every time she alludes to Liam Hemsworth in Endless Summer Vacation and it's a lot. Here's a rundown of all of them.

In Wildcard she sings about a marriage that was not an act of love but a necessity. Get the fuck out of my life with that shit.” She then goes on and alludes to smelling another woman’s perfume on her partner. Miley makes it clear she didn’t fit in with her partner’s family. Obviously Miley hasn’t explicitly confirmed her album is about her ex but fans have listened to the whole thing and drawn their own conclusions. She dropped Flowers on Liam Hemsworth’s birthday and it was the ultimate track for a hottie coming back from a bad breakup. Fans have assumed Miley labels Liam as the problem in their relationship.

After the huge success of the album's lead single 'Flowers', Miley Cyrus' Endless Sumer Vacation reminds us of her multi-genre talents.

The notion that all female pop acts are underappreciated and largely misunderstood is a feature piece for another time. But overall, Endless Summer Vacation is a truly powerful addition to Miley’s discography; one that could finally bring the attention they deserve to all albums that came before. There is absolutely no denying this is a pop album, but Miley’s voice deserves to be lorded as one of the finest rock vocals of our time – whether she’s been given the attention she deserves or not. Merging Bangerz-era full production but with better lyricism and modern details, this may well be the Miley of the future. And that pretty much sets the tone for the first half. Sitting as a kind of manifesto, we immediately meet Miley where she is right now.

'Endless Summer Vacation' may appear subdued by her standards, but it remains remarkably intriguing. Read the NME review.

The infectious second single ‘River’, which Cyrus has described as “dancefloor banger” with “nasty” lyrics, feels like a relative of her [Stevie Nicks](https://www.nme.com/artists/stevie-nicks)-inspired hit ‘Midnight Sky’. Cyrus has called ‘Endless Summer Vacation’ her “love letter” to LA, the city she moved to as a teenager when she landed her career-launching role in the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana. Cyrus is a straight-talker who is normally game for a laugh on the promo circuit, but since co-hosting a televised New Year’s Eve special with her godmother [Dolly Parton](https://www.nme.com/artists/dolly-parton), she has kept a curiously low profile and even stayed quiet on social media. If ‘Flowers’ finds Cyrus rebuilding herself after a break-up – “We were right ’til we weren’t / Built a home and watched it burn” – then the album feels like a messier, more complex extension of this process. [Harry Styles](https://www.nme.com/artists/harry-styles)‘ producers Kid Harpoon and Tyler Johnson, climaxes in a psychedelic swirl that sounds like something from ‘Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz’, the experimental 2015 album she made with The [Flaming Lips](https://www.nme.com/artists/the-flaming-lips). [Miley Cyrus](https://www.nme.com/artists/miley-cyrus)‘ eighth studio album arrives on a cloud of mystery, which is unusual for an artist who isn’t exactly the shy and retiring type.

After years trying to reconcile chart success with her leftfield musical instincts, the singer has delivered a hazily atmospheric album that plays to her ...

The other is to be a more traditional or even leftfield artist, making records that highlight the Stevie Nicks-ish qualities of her voice: the Miley Cyrus who roared her way through a lockdown cover of Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here, who followed up Bangerz with the Flaming Lips collaboration [Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz](https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/aug/31/miley-cyrus-her-dead-petz-first-listen-review), then followed that up with 2017’s country-rock flavoured [Younger Now](https://www.theguardian.com/music/2017/sep/28/miley-cyrus-younger-now-review-rca). You can virtually hear the click-clacking of gossip-blog posts being typed in the background of Jaded – in which Cyrus lets an ex have it with both barrels – and Rose Colored Lenses’s languid depiction of post-coital bliss. The first is to be a 21st-century pop star, making the kind of committee-written electronic hits that 21st-century pop stars tend to make, as was the case with her 2013 album It also deploys the fashionable device of scattering in a trail of clues about its real-life subject. You might have thought the whole business of leaking albums belonged to a past era, before streaming supplanted downloads, and that people are now largely happy to adhere to the schedule knowing they’ll be able to stream the album for free when it arrives. It’s hit No 1 everywhere from Poland to Paraguay, seven weeks and counting at the top of the British charts, its lyrics and video painstakingly scanned by a media and fanbase eager to discover references to Cyrus’s ex-husband Liam Hemsworth, three years after their divorce.

The rock'n'roll petulance of the singer's last albums is firmly behind her on this disappointing comedown. WEST HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 09: Miley ...

“You” is one of these – a heartache ballad that serves us this great line but not much else: “I’m kinda crazy ’cause that’s how you made me”. It feels like what Miley was aiming for with the whole album, but taken as a whole, the record falls short. It’s a slightly disappointing comedown – the woman who gave us “Wrecking Ball” doesn’t seem to have much wrecking left in her.

Miley Cyrus' new album, "Endless Summer Vacation," showcases her versatility, but it's a step back from her 2020 record, "Plastic Hearts.

The tearjerker’s third-person narrative is intriguing. But even she knows solitude isn’t always the solution.

The pop star's eighth LP isn't a straightforward divorce album; instead, it focuses on budding romances and self-love. By Brittany Spanos ...

Tracks like “Thousand Miles,” “Island” and “Wonder Woman” zero in specifically on the complexities in being your own support system: the sadness that often propels you to that discovery as well as the freedom and relief that follow. [Plastic Hearts](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-album-reviews/miley-cyrus-plastic-hearts-album-review-1096369/) (and the one-off kiss-off “Slide Away”) were Cyrus’ more direct statements on the end of her marriage to longtime love [Liam Hemsworth](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/off-the-cuff-liam-hemsworth-on-hunger-games-and-xbox-addiction-238690/). The tracks are buzzing with the hope of new love and the end of sexual and romantic droughts, as the second single “River” shows. In the credits, her more surprising collaborators like director Harmony Korine (“Handstand”), James Blake (“Violet Chemistry”) and Greg Kurstin (“Jaded”) never detract from Cyrus’ clear vision. Teased by the enlightened divorce bop [“Flowers,”](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/miley-cyrus-releases-flowers-video-1234660056/) Cyrus zeroes in on the independence angle as she reflects on past relationships and finally accepts the heartbreak while welcoming in new love for herself and others. The final result is a powerful artistic statement, focused and clear-eyed as Cyrus seems to have found herself in her thirties.

Miley Cyrus' 'Endless Summer Vacation' wins in ditching her previous album's rock for straight pop ballads, quirkier synth-pop and dance numbers.

The album cover sets the tone nicely: Cyrus is not coming in like a wrecking ball, but as — sure — something of a trapeze artist, one who right about now might be too high to fail. That’s followed by the one contribution Greg Kurstin has as a writer-producer, “Jaded,” which is pure mellow-gold in its generous and breezy approach to the end of a love affair. (For all its radio-friendliness, “Jaded” also includes the first of enough F-bombs on the album that there’s surely going to be a lot of judicious bleeping in the record’s accompanying Disney+ special.) “You’re questioning the science, ’cause you don’t understand / How I’m doing what I’m doing in a fucking handstand,” Cyrus sings, sounding a little like the recently ultra-empowered Taylor Swift, but on an even higher dosage of cockiness steroids (or acid). There’s so much to like here, though, starting, of course, with “Flowers.” It’s derivative, in an “I Will Survive” meets “Lose You to Love Me” meets “Don’t Start Now” kind of way, but that’s no knock. Cyrus also plays it soft on “Wonder Woman,” an almost entirely piano-focused ballad you might presume is inspired by her mother, or some other stolid and occasionally sad role model — it sounds kind of like a feminist “Desperado.” “Island,” buried late in the track list, is an odd number that never quite works, even with an interesting key change between the tense verses and the tropical choruses, courtesy of collaborator BJ Burton. (Well, maybe not literally the last, because the album closes with a quiet demo version of “Flowers,” but an extended bout of revenge writing is not really where her head is at.) The succeeding songs don’t get too stuck in the single’s post-Dua Lipa brand of disco thump, but neither is there even a hint of revisiting the previous album’s Blondie-isms for a second. Yes, “Muddy Feet” is one of the tracks where the growl returns — it earns it, on an album that otherwise isn’t firing too many shots across any bows. The throughly massive hit single that preceded it into the culture a couple of months ago, “Flowers,” seemed to promise a belated divorce album in the confessional style that’s come back into fashion. The singer just knows her inner Joan Jett doesn’t need to rev up its engines when she’s mellowing out with a minimalist, rhythm-section-based ballad like “Rose Colored Glasses” or getting a little more wacked out with a spooky avant-pop discursion like “Handstand.” Successive records found her swinging back and forth — or sideways — from the pop-diva dominance she established with “Bangerz” to the one-woman back-to-roots movement of “Young Again,” on up to the rockin’ new-wave revivalism of 2021’s “Plastic Hearts.” (Somewhere in there came her Flaming Lips collab…

“River,” the album’s second single, is out today to coincide with the LP’s release. To accompany the album, Cyrus returned to Disney (specifically, Disney+) after more than a decade by bringing back her popular “Backyard Sessions” series. The LP arrives today with songwriting and production contributions from talented artists across the industry.

After spending the decade following her Disney Channel rise by trying on different styles of popular music, from hip-hop to country-pop to guitar-rock, Cyrus ...

The extended bridge, where the production simplifies to focus on the beats and bass as Cyrus turns sex into a Monet simile, makes “Violet Chemistry” both the longest song on Endless Summer Vacation and one of the best. There’s a reason why “River” is being positioned as Cyrus’ potential follow-up smash to “Flowers”: the single handles its synth-pop flourishes and sexual innuendoes with funk and personality, its melodies blasting out like laser beams and Cyrus opting for sashaying monotone on the verses to offset the “ooh-ooh-OOH!” maximalism of the chorus. “Rose Colored Lenses” contains the title Endless Summer Vacation in the second verse, and it makes sense: Cyrus is capturing a warm moment in time here, and pleading for it to stay eternal. “Wildcard” functions as a late-album vocal showcase, the snares complementing Cyrus’ statements of self before ceding the floor to showy synths on the high-powered hook. Knowingly messy but captivating in its weirdness, “Handstand” could be misplaced in the heart of Endless Summer Vacation or exactly at home as the meltdown of the album’s Side A, depending on your vision of the track list; either way, points to Cyrus for never giving up her freak flag. With its short running time and repeated phrases, “Muddy Feet” comes across as slightly incomplete compared to the rest of the Endless Summer Vacation tracks — but boy, is this one going to rip when Cyrus performs it live.

Of course, “River” kicks off the “P.M.” side of things. Brandi Carlile and Sia are featured on the 12-song set, which is divided into bright “A.M.” and rowdy “P.M.” sides. Cyrus worked on “River” with Kid Harpoon and Tyler Johnson, the Harry Styles and Maggie Rogers producers who also did her long-running No. “You could be the one, have the honor of my babies.” And yes, by the end of the clip, everyone ends up soaking wet. And judging by the song, Cyrus is already obsessed: “Blowing bubbles in the bath, I can’t stop from thinking lately,” she says in the second verse. Or a few people, as she does in the video for new single “River.” The simple black-and-white visual starts with Cyrus singing the synth-rock anthem on a lit runway, but soon cuts to scenes of sexy, shirtless, six-packed dancers.

Miley Cyrus' new album, 'Endless Summer Vacation' focuses on self-discovery and independence with 'Jaded,' 'River,' 'Rose Colored Lenses,' and more.

Though “Handstand” is interesting to listen to, it’s less of a song and more of an interlude. Keeping with the theme of womanhood, “Thousand Miles” is about Cyrus’s relationship with her sister. “In the evening it’s a great time for rest, it’s a time to recover—or it’s a time to go out and experience kind of a wild side. Cyrus pleas for a problem-free romance in “Rose Colored Lenses.” The song shows a much more relaxed version of Cyrus. It’s a fun song about lust—and I can already hear it thumping through the speakers of a New York Citty bar. It's not as punchy as the rest of the album, but "Island" is the type of song you can put on and drift away to. If you're a fan of Plastic Hearts, you’ll love “You.” This track is the closest we’ll get to another rock record, but I’m not complaining! It’s a quick song, but it packs a fiery punch—earning it the next spot on my list. [a mini-performance documentary on Disney+](https://www.disneyplus.com/movies/miley-cyrus-endless-summer-vacation-backyard-sessions/MbkiReincbRE), where you can watch the singer perform seven tracks from the album at the house where the “Flowers” music video was shot. “There’s like a buzz, an energy, and there’s a potential of new possibilities. “In the nighttime, it feels that there’s a slinky, seediness, and kind of a grime, but a glamor at the same time,” she said.

Its parallel to Miley’s own life can not be ignored, and her power to overcome heartbreak and become her best self is palpable throughout the record. “We went to hell / But we never came back,” she sings on the glistening ‘Jaded’ before lamenting her partner’s reluctance to admit fault (“You just jump in the car and head down to the bar ’til you’re blurry”). [Miley Cyrus releases new track ‘Flowers’](https://diymag.com/news/miley-cyrus-flowers) Miley is clearly having fun playing with genre, flowing between pop, rock, country and more with ease. Eighth studio album ‘Endless Summer Vacation’ emerges as a clear indication of someone who’s finally figured out who they are, resulting in a bold pop record oozing with the confidence and style that results from a period of self-discovery. One of the most poignant moments comes from penultimate track ‘Wonder Woman’.

“You can definitely see this idea of mayhem on the docks of Miami,” Korine told Vice of the paintings. The director had a 2019 exhibition of paintings at Gagosian called “Young Twitchy.” In [a statement](https://gagosian.com/exhibitions/2019/harmony-korine-young-twitchy/), he explained that the paintings were re-created from photos that he would take on his phone of scenes around Florida, where he lives. “It’s just kind of a strange party that starts to come alive.” It’s also apparent from the paintings that Twitchy is pretty harmless and nice. “Sometimes he gets pissed when people creep up on him,” Korine told Garage. From the paintings, Twitchy indeed seems to enjoy the water, but also seems to prefer hanging out during the day.
