Miley Cyrus wrote the No.1 Billboard hit to get back at her ex-husband, but why did it make Bruno Mars feel ‘tickled’?
The song Flowers by Miley Cyrus was immediately discovered to be a response to a song by Bruno Mars.
Flowers can be seen as Miley Cyrus’s impressive comeback when she overcame the pain of her broken marriage with Liam Hemsworth. A song with “self-love” lyrics, a simple but effective MV,… all of which brought Miley Cyrus the Billboard Hot 100 Champion position after 10 years, completely deserved.

However, ever since the song’s release, the audience has noticed that the sample part of the chorus of Flowers is very similar to When I Was Your Man by Bruno Mars, also a huge hit released in 2012. Not stopping there, the lyrics are even more worth discussing – like a “bucket of cold water” splashed on every word of Bruno Mars. Did you pay attention?
Bruno Mars wrote: “That I should have bought you flowers” (I should have bought you flowers) , Miley Cyrus immediately replied: “I can buy myself flowers” (I can buy myself flowers). Okay).
Bruno Mars “lamented”: “Should have given you all my hours. When I had the chance” ( I should have spent many hours with you as soon as I had the chance) , Miley Cyrus did not hesitate: “Talk to myself for hours. Say things you don’t understand” ( I can talk to myself for hours. Things you never understand).
And then Bruno Mars “tormented”: “Take you to every party ’cause all you wanted to do was dancing” (I should have taken you to all the parties because all you wanted was to dance) . Miley Cyrus also “concluded”: “I can take myself dancing. And I can hold my own hand” (I can go to parties by myself, dance alone and hold my own hand).
What did Bruno Mars do to make him guilty?
But this is a song that Miley Cyrus wrote to “revenge” her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth, why is it related to Bruo Mars here?
According to many assumptions made by Miley Cyrus fans on social media platforms, when they were still “romantic”, Liam Hemsworth often sent Miley Cyrus the song When I Was Your Man by Bruno Mars. This song can be seen as a “love token” for the two’s love, so when they break up, When I Was Your Man will definitely be a big “obsession” for Miley Cyrus, causing her to be tormented. And what better way to mark the overcoming of pain than by writing the lyrics of Flowers as a lyric-by-word response to When I Was Your Man. Bruno Mars has nothing to do with this love story!
