Miley Cyrus - End of the World

If the end of the world sounds like this, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

Well, hello, ABBA 2025 reincarnation—we’ve been expecting you. In a year where, somehow, three whole months have passed without a single true hit, Miley Cyrus comes blazing in like a comet, ready to offer her own. And what a way to do it.

After launching this unexpected release week with the extravagant and experimental “Something Beautiful”, Miley follows up with the lead single “End of the World”, arriving just in time for release Friday. Here, she reminds us that even if everything around us is falling apart, we might as well spend the time we have left together—and in love.

She’s giving ABBA. She’s giving Tina. She’s giving David. Maybe even a little bit of The Weeknd—just with better hair. But most importantly, it feels as authentic in this moment as Miley has been in the last ten years.

The song is executed so effortlessly—it’s beautifully crafted and doesn’t try too hard to be a hit. It simply is four minutes of pure joy and a quintessential summer vibe. The balance between nostalgia and freshness is struck just right, the lyrics land perfectly, and the instrumental? Absolutely top-tier.

This feels like the moment when Miley and producer Shawn Everett have truly locked into something special. The kind of dynamic where the artist is completely self-assured, unwilling to compromise, and the producer knows exactly how to polish that raw energy into brilliance.

And even if “the sky is fallin’, fallin’ like a comet now”—I won’t notice. I’ll be too busy dancing to this absolute bop.
