From Miley Cyrus to Taylor Swift: How pop singers get their revenge (The Independent)

As Miley Cyrus returns to the pop scene with a track reportedly about ex Liam Hemsworth, Ed Power explores the musical phenomenon that is the revenge song.

With Cyrus yet to unveil “Flowers” in full, it’s hard to say whether it will soar to the heights of these great revenge songs of the past. He was in his car listening to the radio when Morissette’s single, “You Oughta Know”, came on – with acid splash lyrics such as “I’m here to remind you/ Of the mess you left when you went away.” “I said, ‘Wow, this girl is angry.’ And then I said, ‘Oh man, I think it’s Alanis,’” Coulier revealed. That he was the villain in all this was news to Coulier. And that record is an exacting act of payback towards a lover who double-crossed the singer. The heartache Cyrus experienced over the end of her marriage is a very different feeling to that experienced by Swift when Gyllenhaal allegedly told her he preferred cool indie rock to her songs. “It’s about a compilation of men that Carly had known, but primarily Warren Beatty,” said Richard Perry, who produced the track. Perhaps it is the spikiness of the emotion. I was seeing someone for a bit of time, and then they ended up physically involved with one of my friends in the same hotel that we were staying in, while I was downstairs. The lyrics to “Cry Me a River” were inspired by his split from Spears. Because while the Renaissance star is nowadays unchallenged as the Queen of Pop, early in her solo career that wasn’t the case. A case in point is “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”, the vituperative bopper with which she brought down the curtain every night during her last major world tour (in 2018). But is the urge to share her heartache the only motivation?

Miley Cyrus's new banger “Flowers” drops on Liam Hemsworth's ... (British GQ)

"Flowers" is Miley Cyrus's first new music in two years and follows her divorce from Liam Hemsworth in 2020.

[Cyrus](https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/mark-ronson-miley-cyrus) and [Hemsworth](https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/gallery/liam-hemsworth-miley-cyrus-best-looks-2019) were a fabled Hollywood young love success story after first meeting on the set of the romantic drama The Last Song in 2011. [Liam Hemsworth](https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/grooming/article/liam-hemsworth-hair)'s birthday. The song is the first off her upcoming eigth album (look, Disney worked her hard), Endless Summer Vacation, which will land in our laps on 10 March. [Miley](https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/grooming/article/troye-sivan-mullet) sings: “We were good, we were gold/ Kind of dream that can't be sold / We were right 'til we weren't / Built a home and watched it burn”, which makes specific reference to when the house she shared with Hemsworth literally burned down in 2018. Ah, the natural cycle of a popstar breakup – love, heartbreak, absolute banger. [Miley Cyrus](https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/cars/article/miley-cyrus-car-collection) has decided to retell it with her new single “Flowers”, her first morsel new music in two years.

Miley Cyrus: “Flowers” (Pitchfork)

The pop singer's self-helpy new single illustrates how her music often doesn't match her star power.

[Endless Summer Vacation](https://pitchfork.com/news/miley-cyrus-announces-new-album-endless-summer-vacation/), starts in a similar position as 2020’s [Plastic Hearts](https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/miley-cyrus-plastic-hearts/), with a story of a broken relationship that scans as a reference to her split from ex-husband Liam Hemsworth in 2019.

This time, instead of stomping through heartbreak to the sound of ’80s rock, she’s doing something like twangy disco funk, with a sour string section that gives her revenge anthem the faintest hint of flamenco.

Is Miley Cyrus 'Flowers' About Liam Hemsworth? (Billboard)

Miley Cyrus dropped her new single on Thursday night (Jan. 12). Is the song about her relationship with ex Liam Hemsworth?

Sweetheart, we’re on the carpet,” he chided at the time. However, when the Access Hollywood personality followed that up by asking what a dance looked like between the couple, Hemsworth didn’t love Cyrus playfully grinding on him. “I would say that losing the house changed us much more than getting married changed us.” Of course, fans will remember that the couple’s Malibu home was destroyed in the devastating Woolsey Fire of 2018, a tragedy Cyrus later admitted spurred her into marrying Hemsworth nearly a decade after they first fell in love. Instead, she nonchalantly declares, “No remorse, no regrets/ I forgive every word you said” before dancing ecstatically around an LA mansion all on her own. [pop](https://www.billboard.com/t/pop/) star might be referencing her now-ex-husband when she announced the single’s Jan. But once the single dropped in full, the superstar got pointedly more specific. Does it feel good where you’re at right now?” she definitely didn’t lie when she said she’s got nerve,” one fan wrote after Cyrus shared the news. “Miley’s telling the world she can love herself better ON LIAM’S BIRTHDAY?! [Miley Cyrus](https://www.billboard.com/artist/miley-cyrus/) dropped her new single “ [Flowers](https://www.billboard.com/music/pop/miley-cyrus-flowers-stream-1235198408/)” on Thursday night, and all signs seem to point to the anthem taking inspiration from her relationship with ex-husband [Liam Hemsworth](https://www.billboard.com/t/liam-hemsworth/). [teasing](https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/miley-cyrus-flowers-shower-teaser-1235195929/) the song’s chorus in a sultry post on social media: “I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand/ Talk to myself for hours, yeah, say things you don’t understand/ I can take myself dancing, I can hold my own hand/ Yeah, I can love me better than you can.” On their own, the lyrics could be about any given ill-fated romance.

Miley Cyrus' Lead Singles, Ranked: 'Flowers' & More (Critic's Picks) (Billboard)

When Miley Cyrus announced that she would be kicking off 2023 with the release of “Flowers,” a new single to precede her forthcoming album Endless Summer ...

Even though it reached the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, “Can’t Be Tamed” is arguably Cyrus’ least-successful lead single, considering how derided the song and its clunky-metaphor music video became as an adult pivot away from her Disney brand, and how her 2010 album of the same time was bereft of any other crossover hits that could continue her momentum from “Party in the U.S.A.” from the previous year. “Can’t Be Tamed” rules: a throbbing, boisterous dance-pop declaration of independence that recalled Britney Spears’ Blackout sound (always a good thing) and also gestured towards the rise of EDM over the next few years. After the release of Bangerz turned Cyrus into a chart-topping party-starter and Dead Petz brought her on a trippy detour, “Malibu” acted as a palette-cleanser, its soft-rock edges signaling a calmer, more adult vision. “7 Things” turns teen drama into a wholly propulsive product, with Cyrus rattling off her crush’s worst qualities until finally throwing her hands up and admitting her feelings; the heightened emotion works, and begs the listener to climb aboard for the rush of the chorus. And while it’s still early days for “Flowers,” we tried our best to consider its place among Cyrus’ lead singles to date, and humbly rank the new track among the seven that have stood tall for years. After all, Cyrus has spent the majority of her recording career deploying lead singles as hints to upcoming shifts in her sound and style, with clear demarcations between album eras and the tweaks in public persona that the pop superstar adopts for each.

With 'Flowers,' Miley Cyrus Ushers In an Assured New Era (Esquire.com)

The singer's first track off her anticipated 2023 album is all about healing, renewal, and perhaps, a bit of revenge.

[Stevie Nicks](https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/a26995702/stevie-nicks-janet-jackson-rock-hall-of-fame/) gave her seal of approval, recording a remix of “Edge of Seventeen" for the record. “I can buy myself flowers / Write my name in the sand,” she sings over a groovy beat. And of course, just when you thought you had her figured out, Cyrus returned in 2020 with Plastic Hearts—a rock-inspired album that would make any Hall-of-Famer proud. But in 2017, she flipped the script with Younger Now, a saccharine record full of whimsy and romance. Hannah was gone, and this was the Miley we ought to know. Since departing her reign on Disney Channel, she’s delivered one curveball after the next—and her latest single, “Flowers,” is no different.

Miley Cyrus' Best Music Videos, Ranked By Big Eff You Energy (Elite Daily)

Miley Cyrus knows how to serve up hardcore vibes in her videos. In honor of her single "Flowers," here are eight videos that embody the singer's ...

Clad in a cherry red “Oops!...I Did It Again”-inspired latex suit, Miley delivers fiery confessionals about women’s rights and how no one can “f*ck with her freedom.” Her presence is unabashedly bold and fierce in this visual, so much so that you want to slip on your own latex ‘fit and scream the lyrics. “Midnight Sky.” While smizing in the camera, Miley twirls her mic cord and rhythmically coos about her newfound independence from her partner. She happily drinks in this newfound alone time, takes a dive in the pool, does a little yoga, and slips on her sharpest black suit for some carefree dancing. However, once Plastic Hearts Plastic Hearts bursted onto the scene in 2020, Miley practically embodied this personality for her single, “Prisoner.” Serving as unnamed (yet still, iconic) rockstars, the visual sees Miley and Dua Lipa driving a tour bus and roughly spilling red cherry juice on each other before delivering a head-banging performance at a night club. That aura glimmers in the video for “Don’t Call Me Angel,” where she suits up in the boxing ring against her tied-up beau. Miley reflects on the end of a breakup, which many seem to think is about her divorce from ex-husband Liam Hemsworth. Within seconds of the video, viewers are thrown in Miley’s televised “car chase,” eerily similar to that of OJ Simpson. In this era, Miley was in the early throes of her mesmerizing rockstar alter ego. Miley’s presence in this video is pretty unforgettable, and it’s all thanks to her reworked Michael Jordan “23” Bulls jersey-and-shorts combo. That said, there were some memorable highlights from this period, such as her appearance in Mike WiLL Made It’s “23” video. The singer was eager to fly away from her iconic Hannah Montana persona; however, she didn’t embark on this departure quietly. Those unforced moves are the highlights of her visuals, and it feels natural.
