Miley Cyrus has confirmed that her new single called “Used to Be Young” is set for release next Friday, August 25th, along with an accompanying video.

Cyrus has been teasing the new tune for a while now, hinting at its lyrics in a May 2023 profile with British Vogue: “I know I used to be crazy/ I know I used to be fun/ You say I used to be wild/ I say I used to be young.” She explained in the interview that those lines came to her after another songwriter approached her with a “standard ҒUCҜed up in the club track,” a theme she no longer relates to now that she’s two years sober.

Fans then caught on that the release “Used to Be Young” was imminent when promotional posters began popping up in cities like Brussels earlier this week. The posters featured images of Cyrus along with some of her old immediately-recognizable lyrics in block text, like “I hopped off the plane at LAX” and “I came in like a wrecking ball”; then, in another box, “I say I used to be young.”

We’ll continue to see a more reflective side of Cyrus with the upcoming TV special event Endless Summer Vacation: Continued (Backyard Sessions), which will air on ABC on Thursday, August 24th, and be available to stream on Hulu the next day. It’s a re-imagining of the version that originally aired on Disney+ back in March, complete with a brand-new interview.

Pre-orders for a limited 7-inch vinyl of “Used to Be Young” are ongoing. See Cyrus’ announcement post for the new single below.

“Used to Be Young” is Cyrus’ first new music since her March album Endless Summer Vacation, which features the record-breaking hit “Flowers.”
