Background and promotion
In November 2024, through an interview with Harper's Bazaar, Cyrus announced she was working on a new album titled Something Beautiful.
[1][2] Inspired by Pink Floyd's The Wall (1979), she described the record as a visual album that centers around the theme of "healing".
[3] Cyrus began teasing her upcoming album on March 17, 2025, by updating her visuals on social media and her website as well as teasing the project through posters around the world.[4] The singer announced the album on March 24.[5]
On March 31, 2025, the visual video for "Prelude" premiered on Cyrus' YouTube channel;[6] it was directed by Cyrus, Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter.[7] The same day, the music video for the title track was released.
[8] Billboards in Times Square, New York City, began teasing the release of another track, "End of the World", with a teaser video published on Cyrus' official website.[9] It was released on April 3, 2025, as the album's lead single.
[10] The following month, Cyrus premiered a new ballad song from the album,[11] titled "More to Lose" during a small-scale performance at Casa Cipriani in New York City;[12][13] it was released on May 9, 2025.
[14] Spotify hosted "An Evening with Miley Cyrus" album listening and film screening event for a limited number of fans in New York City on May 6.[15]
Themes and composition
Consisting of thirteen songs, Something Beautiful was executive produced by Cyrus and Shawn Everett.[16] Its artwork was photographed by Glen Luchford and features Cyrus draped in archival 1997 Thierry Mugler couture, which was described as a "striking nod" to the album's "bold" aesthetic and visual storytelling.
[17] The cover sees Cyrus shrouded in darkness as she is surrounded by lights, emphasizing the album's theme of "beauty in the darkest moments".[18]
Miley described the album as "hypnotic", created as "an attempt to medicate somewhat of a sick culture through music." The album's themes center around beauty, death, psychedelia, impermanence, heartbreak, and destruction.
When discussing the thematic inspiration for the album, she claimed "the nastiest times of our life do have a point of beauty. They are the shadow, they are the charcoal, they are the shading. You can’t have a painting without highlights and contrast."[19]
Songs
Something Beautiful begins with "Prelude", an existential spoken word intro supported by electronic instrumentals.[20] Its lyrics find Cyrus detailing the experience of capturing beauty in passing moments, exploring existential thoughts, and contemplates the duality of beauty.
[21] The album's title track starts out as an alternative R&B ballad fused with soul and jazz influences.[22] During the chorus, it "explodes" into experimental rock and psychedelic pop, highlighted by Cyrus' distorted vocals.
[23] "End of the World" is a disco-inflected pop anthem about mortality and escapism in the face of an inevitable apocalypse.[24][25] The song explores the "juxtaposition between the happiness of being with someone you love while the world is crashing down around you".
