You know who haas a fucking great voice? Miley Cyrus

Totally agree. Great vocalist.

You have got to be kidding. I saw her sing live on TV two separate times and each time she was off key and out of tempo.

I think she is a good singer. I do wonder what caused the drastic change in her voice though. Smoking? Cocaine? Bad technique? All of the above?

She started to lean heavily into covering rock songs a couple of years ago, maybe because her voice as it is now is better suited for them. I liked her cover of "Doll Parts". A bit more vocally embellished than what Courtney is capable of, though I still prefer Courtney's singing on the original by far.

I'm a fan, love her backyard and Chateau Marmont performances.

I wouldn't call myself a fan but I realized she was a real deal when I saw her on an episode of "Black Mirror", which ended with this cover of "Head Like A Hole" by Nine Inch Nails.

No joke- This 2022 live "album" on Youtube is a fucking revelation. I like this bitch!!!!! Like really like her! She is better than Taylor by 3000 light years-

I have stuck with my core artists for a long time (Tori/Father John Misty/Kate/Daughtry- don't laugh! Chris rules./Oasis/Beach House/Joni/Fleet Foxes/Old Beck stuff--I finally started listening to Taylor and like some of it- but Miley's voice is peak Stevie Nicks- just a GREAT fucking voice. I am impressed!

I want to try out some Halsey soon-

But I am a new Miley fan for life I think.

R2 You can be off key and out of tempo and still have a good voice

R2 = Liam Hemsworth, still bitter.

Yes. I love her voice, and she chooses good songs to cover. I love her “Don’t Dream It’s Over.”

I love her voice

I’m a fan too and am old.

SHE COVERED DONT DREAM ITS OVER by CROWDED HOUE??? Searching now-

I wasn’t a Miley fan until the break-up/voice change, but I must say she consistently impresses me nowadays… her cover of Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters” with Elton John, Yo-Yo Ma (!), WATT and others from Elton’s phenomenal The Lockdown Sessions duets album is utterly spectacular.

Wrecking Ball is a guilty pleasure song.

I also like Used to be Young

What kind of psychopath would post something like this and not include a link to her singing. Seriously.

R7 Thank God for auto-tune.

This is not perfect, but it gets better and better

To me, she is a modern day Stevie-

Miley is one badass bitch who has it all together. She's a natural star with a boatload of confidence beyond her years and the talent to carry her through an entire career. I loved her flirty sexy Grammy performance of Flowers at this year's Grammys. What did that stud Liam Hemsworth fellow do to make her leave?

You know who has a great voice fucking? Jeff Stryker

She does. Even if it’s not technically up to specs, her voice is unique and recognizable.

It’s why all the qualified singers who win the Voice don nothing. You need a signature tone.

She's losing it though and it's becoming quite noticeable. She smokes like a chimney and drinks like an Irishman. Still a great talent, and I can't stand her but she's good enough I can admit it, too bad it will be gone soon.

This is one of my favorite covers of all time. She’s probably one of the most proficient live singers/interpreters of her generation, and she always makes the material her own.

r21 " Still a great talent, and I can't stand her but she's good enough I can admit it, too bad it will be gone soon. "

Good lord pick an opinion.

This is a great fucking song.

What? You can't admit that you think someone is a great talent but not your taste?

You’re not the first to make the Stevie comparison. They collaborated a few years ago on a really fun mashup of Edge of Seventeen/Midnight Sky.

My favorite Miley song is one of her least known. Such a shame, as the 90s Blur/The Verve vibes are just impeccable.

Liam didn't leave Miley, Miley left Liam....they made it one year as husband and "wife," a term Miley hates.

Liam's alleged partying habits ultimately led Miley to leave their relationship. "Everyone always thinks Miley is problematic and immature and a hard-core partier while he’s this chill surfer dude, but that’s actually [not accurate]," the insider said. "Liam parties with his friends, and Miley thinks he should’ve grown out of that by now."

R21 I think she's sober.

To all the pro-Mileys- You have made my night. Her voice is (for me) STUNNING-- and she seems like a fucking kick ass chick to boot!!!!

I always am shocked at my age when i "discover" people- generally a decade + late-

It may just keep me young!

The one thing about being a "Taurus" that I do feel is true- is I hate change and that I am loyal.

Its good for me to break out sometimes, and it always brings me to good things- and people-

R28 She tackles this very subject in Slide Away. He was the addict and she was sober, despite their reputations to the contrary.

This is one of my favorites.

R32 Love that

I love Miley (and Dolly) but if I never hear “Jolene” again it will be too soon.

Dolly gives me the heebie-jeebies now. She doesn't even look human anymore.

Plastic Hearts is SUCH a great album. The inspiration was Joan Jett, Debbie Harry, glam rock 80s realness and she pulls it off flawlessly. She even got legendary punk photographer Mick Rock to shoot the cover. It was fairly infuriating to watch her blow up with the following album instead, which wasn’t nearly as good.

I do want to throttle her for her version of Heart of Glass. Heart of Glass is all about sophisticated song about ennui in a long term relationship. Miley sings it like it's the last time she plans on using her larynx.

R37 I don’t know, I appreciated that she leaned into the Miley-ness of it all and just went balls to the wall. She would never be able to replicate Deb’s icy detached delivery.

Is it sacrilegious to say I prefer her version of “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down On Me” to Elton’s?

I love covers. I usually never get bugged by them. I love different interpretations but her cover of Heart of Glass is just so off that I can't. Not to drone on about it but it's one of the most sophisticated songs to ever top the pop charts. The song didn't deserve that beating Miley gave it.

I do think she’d be a better fit for “Call Me” than “Heart of Glass.” She’d kill “One Way or Another” too.

OMG I just came back to say I'd LOVE to hear her do Call Me. You beat me.

Don't care for Miley or her singing/music, or her antics, but she had excellent taste in her early boyfriends; Nick Jonas, Justin Gaston, Liam Hemsworth.

Love her!

Justice for Jaded!

I love her rock covers, but she's still great at country/folk

R44 The best song on the album, which is quite patchy.

I think we know what Liam's appeal was, besides the cute face and ripped bod.

I’d love to be the filling in a Hemsworth sandwich.

Oh yeah- this gal is my late in life "discovery" she is a STAR to me!!!

Is she even 30?

I shall go find out!

I agree OP.

Love her voice and love her.

She’s proof good things can come out of even the trashiest families.

R50; And I love you.

How he fuck can I see this bitch live?

I am from the 2002 Tori Amos days when I was 23 or 24!

And no joke, she is a GOOD HUMAN. A good girl. (Just that live show and what she says proves it)

OP, her sister Noah is a talented singer/songwriter as well. She’s not attractive and doesn’t have Miley’s star wattage, but she’s released some great material.

A very different vibe to Miley, but a great voice.

My favorite Noah tune.

Miley and Noah team up for Noah’s album.

I loveee Noah’s duet with Orville Peck. Hiring a bisexual actor to play the bisexual love interest for BOTH of them was an inspired choice.

Stop derailing the thread! Here's Miley & Orville

She has great pipes and is a good songwriter.

Huh, fun thread. I might actually prefer Noah to Miley? The material is a lot less bombastic, but a lot more thoughtfully written. She reminds me of the Lilith Fair gals from the 90s.

R54 I didn’t expect to cry first thing Sunday morning but here we are. Thanks a lot.

Her dad referring to her as a “skank and a devil” just made me like her more. Team Miley.

R62 "Her dad referring to her as a “skank and a devil” "

He wasn't wrong though....

R63, he is wrong and it’s an appalling thing to say about your child regardless. If she’s a skank and a devil then so are all of us.

[quote]If she’s a skank and a devil then so are all of us.

So, we're skanks, devils, and Spartacus?

OP here- Even more obsessed.

And no joke- Her voice WIPES THE FLOOR with Taylor's

Yes she does OP. I don't like her or any of her stuff but she has a phenomenal voice.

Cant stand her

Love her!

I honestly cannot stand Kathleen Hanna (I'm 100% team Courtney Love and am frankly glad Mrs. Horovitz got decked by queen Cuntney), but I admit that Bikini Kill had a few solid tunes. Miley covered their signature track at the Super Bowl(????) in 2021 and I think it was better than the original.

As if there was any doubt, OP = Miley Cyrus.

Noah made a dramatic change for the better. She looks so much better.

Her "Jolene" is really good.

I watched her sing the Flower song on the Grammy Awards. She sang it well. That's all I know of her music. So for that performance: Thumbs up

Op has obviously not listened to new or her latest work. Her voice is literally deteriorating by the minute thx to heavy smoking / pot use. Her speaking voice is the epitome of a long time smoker.

I think she sounds pretty basic.

Yes R76. She sounds like a goat.

DL singing coaches, she sounds rich at R22 but sort of nasal. Is this a technique? I vaguely recall someone who took singing lessons saying something about the schnozz.

I really enjoy this cover of Flowers better than Miley’s.

I like her a lot, even though I'm old

FUN MILEY FACT: she was born Destiny Hope Cyrus, but as an infant and toddler she was constantly smiling, so she was called Smiley, and that nickname morphed into Miley.

And it's no surprise she was cast as Hannah Montana. She has charisma to spare. I don't think nepotism had that much to do with it.

I do like her voice, but it will go lower as she ages. And it's already low. Her voice already sounds a little bit shot.

Stevie Nicks started low and now has a shot voice.

Miley has said she ruined her voice with cocaine and cigarettes.

Love her voice

I don't get it- why isn't she out there absolutely *killing* it, career wise? She should be Taylor Swift's #1 competitor. Of course she's worlds better- incredible pipes, incredible intensity when performing live. But.....she just sort of bops around and does mostly covers? I mean they're *great* but why isn't she putting the same time into developing her own genre/sound? I think that's the problem- she seems a bit lost in this regard. The 'Flowers' song is catchy but in an earworm-y kind of a way and doesn't really do justice to her abilities. She needs a great producer to make a pop/rock album of stripped down, my-heart-is-bleeding, gritty songs. Album of the Year- guaranteed.

R85- You have my heart. I have this obnoxious Repulican Trumpster CUNT from TX at my work- She is a fake ass evil bitch. She is so into Taylor and works it into every topic. I have been wanting to shut this bitch down and say Miley is far more talented and deserves Taylor's career. You words are pretty much my own thoughts!

R81- I love that!!! Thank you for sharing that

^^Republican , sorry- I hate that bitch.
