Miley Cyrus took a moment during the listening event for Tiktok fans for his new album “Something Beautiful” to give the public for 100 people: “My next album is about to be extremely experimental, so have fun with that,” she said. “” Something beautiful “is only the aperitif.”
At that time, the room had already heard the album in its entirety, because Cyrus had chosen the castle of Los Angeles to preview its ninth album (Friday) for the fans who had the chance to secure an invitation via social media. But what they did not expect was a surprise performance of Cyrus, which appeared after reading the album to start a handful of songs from the project as well as some favorites from fans, including an impromptu interpretation of his previous hit “The Climb”.
The evening, in partnership between Tiktok and Cyrus, was certainly for fans, because she constantly recognized how much they knew each Adlib and each key change. Dressed in Mugler archives, she took the fortune scene at the front of the room – which also counted actress Anya Taylor -Joy in the audience – and started with “more to lose”, the sweeping ballad which she previously published as a single.
“I have experienced this album for a year or two by having these nights in Chateau, they were only inviting, super exclusive, just my closest friends and my family,” she said at the start of the set. “This is how I discovered the album, because if he can’t hold me with me and Michael Pollack on the piano, with whom I wrote these songs, [Jonathan] Rado on the guitar, and Maxx Morando on drums, then what do we do? … So, make the album and fully realize everything and watch it become this butterfly and have this metamorphosis, this evolution is so reflecting my life and everything I feel and I pour it into production. But at the heart of this album, it’s always us, really. It’s been three years in a room, which makes this album in the past two years. »»
Cyrus has proven himself in the direct beginnings of “Easy Lover” and his Smash winner of a Grammy “Flowers”, describing it as “one of the most exciting songs that I have ever been able to go out into the universe”. She continued with a makeshift cover of “The Climb” that Pollack – who previously worked with Cyrus on “Flowers” and others, including Beyoncé and Justin Bieber – knew how to play, to the surprise of Cyrus. She then concluded with “end of the world”, describing how she wrote it in the very room as she was held.
“This song was written in this play,” she said. “It has completely changed and turned just by being here in this place under the ceiling, and this place has so many memories for me that I will not tell you about it.
There was a last surprise in reserve for the evening when a participant got up just when she finished speaking to the crowd to offer her boyfriend. “Go get a room! Put it on my bill. If you want a bed, I load it on my card,” she said that the room bursts.
“Something Beautiful” arrives this Friday, followed by his visual film on June 6.
