Miley Cyrus - Wrecking Ball (Official Audio!)


A few days ago, current it-girl Miley Cyrus rather cunningly released the official audio for her track 'Wrecking Ball', which is taken from her upcoming fourth studio album, Bangerz. Certainly an interesting title for the album (slightly pretentious, but could it really be anything else?) I was half expecting this new track 'Wrecking Ball' to be some sort of wild dance track similar to that of the notorious 'We Can't Stop.' However, I was pleasantly surprised as the new track has a more softer sound with a strong chorus and almost a techno vibe. 
The beginning of the track is reminiscent of Cyrus' 'When I look at you' and features a chanting element and a definite smoother sound compared to some of Cyrus' previous track. The narrative of the track focuses around Cyrus' reflection on how she may have come across too hard in a relationship and how there was a breakdown of sharing and communication. In short, it's your usual reflective relationship track but I think it has the potential to have a more universal appeal than 'We can't stop', and it could be quite successful for Cyrus. Let's hope the music video fits in with the song and we see a different side to the new image she is emulating on screen and through her music. If this sounds like your sort of thing, check out the official audio below:
