You can't watch the whole backyard sessions playlist and not to fall in love with this girl.

[@beckymurphy4714]

I'm finding this out. I didn't care for her when she was starting out, but...shoot, the girl can sing. I like this type of singing much better.

[@BrenMurphy1]

She is genius 🙂🙂🙂

[@fifi9907]

FUN FACT: mark ronson got interested in miley because of this cover when she sang it on SNL. he got obsessed with her voice and said he passed years trying to get in touch with miley, and when that happened they recorded Nothing Breaks Like a Heart, which is honestly a bop.

[@youdontknowme2534]

Nope. Mark Ronson got obsessed after hearing he perform Jolene at an after party.

[@fifi9907]

@@youdontknowme2534 really? because mark himself told this story at graham norton when he did the first performance of nothing breaks like a heart with miley. he also said this during other interviews. I'll check about this jolene story too, though. I'm interested.

[@summerwine7465]

@@fifi9907 there is no jolene story. you were right the first time!

[@summerwine7465]

@@hextonum it definitely would. but the one that DID was actually her 50 ways to live your lover snl cover, as he himself said in many interviews!

[@Cyph3rHaxPalm]

that is a awesome song, love the music and the lyrics, its something different

[@Victoria-mt9zo]

I feel like her voice is perfectly made for country music.

[@karamelkurlz8667]

I feel like you are correct. Maybe she will go towards country or folk rock as she matures. I think she has, real potential.

[@myrandawilhite7658]

+Torislife this isn't country lol look up the actual song by Paul Simon

[@AubreySalokaN]

+Myranda Wilhite It doesn't take hearing her sing a country song to tell that her voice is perfect for the genre.

[@myssangela4872]

that is exactly what i was thinking. she was born for this, she should just quit with pop and do this... i know she wouldn't sell the same way, but... but... this is so beautiful ç___ç

[@xxJustinsTutsxx]

+Torislife it really is

[@galia927]

she's awesome. her lower register is underrated

[@venemoussyrin5949]

Her lows are the best thing ever, I don't think there is any other artist like her

[@Kira-yv3xd]

honestly

[@marcomartinez2567]

Underrated ? She is one of the most famous singers nowadays lol

[@JackyBandicoot]

she didn't say miley in general is underrated, just her lower notes since in most of her more famous and chart songs she rarely uses them.

[@ismaelvillaverde6315]

@@marcomartinez2567 she's famous, but vocally she is underrated

[@polarbear2579]

Unlike a lot of modern singers, this girl has a solid music history education, she's been exposed to so much music, not just the hits. You can tell she's having fun.

[@michaelhughes5595]

Ironically, she blows the roof of everything I've heard/ seen her cover. However I find her original work to be marginal at best.

[@jamescosgriffe358]

@@michaelhughes5595 DEFINITELY, ALTHOUGH I WOULD PAY GOOD MONEY TO SEE HER PERFORM A COVER SET

[@jamescosgriffe358]

I PARTICULARY ENJOY THAT SHE ALWAYS SURROUNDS HERSELF WITH SOME MONSTER MUSICIANS

[@teresitaperegrina3741]

@Michael Hughes it’s probably because the studio recordings sound so polished, she just dropped a live album called Attention and she has covers as well as her own work and it sounds 10000x better than the studio recordings

[@uyenphuong3265]

In her eyes, I could see that she is truly happy.

[@relevo86]

lol most of the time her eyes are closed, but still love it

[@karamelkurlz8667]

I get what you mean. She seems more genuine/content during this performance than with her pop material. Like she doesn't have to be an actress in some extravagant performance, just relaxed.

[@VirtualGhostCyRENRAK]

Karamel Kurlz both styles are meant for different purpose

[@Gallienkrueger1]

I hope you're right, but you can't tell. I think she's excellent and putting up a front.

she was stoned af love her so much ♥ haha

[@bloomcheese3671]

her voice fits country music so much perfect to me, i cant get bored of it

[@thatxbitch]

she added her own country twist to this cover. the original isn't a country song at all

[@bloomcheese3671]

+Taylor Lackford yeh i know that but it would be perfect if u choose to do sth u really good at, n she did it :)))

[@richardvanbeers383]

I think you are both right, the brilliance of the song is the of course the mix of sensitive ballad with the almost party country. Thats all Paul Simon. Her rendition of this song is absolutely fantastic.

[@destinyoungpeter4380]

l Love you Miley♥

[@Wraaaau]

Thalia B 100% right, she's just amazing.

[@BeccaBrodtman]

Miley honestly is one of the strongest versatile voices of our time, unlike her peers she's actually talented. She has this wonderful tone to her voice, she has this raw vulnerability to her.

[@bj4au]

Is it just me or would you love for her to sing The House of the Rising Sun in one of her Backyard Sessions?

[@wasabiattack]

House of the Rising Sun would be amazing with her husky soulfull voice.

[@laurenjanssen6911]

Beverly Jackson she sang a snippet of it during the voice. If you type in "miley vocals the voice" you can hear it! It's amazing! Hoping she'll cover it

[@cwcsfv]

Y-E-S PLEASE! And "Bobby McGee," and something from Amy Winehouse, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan...

[@mogesay]

that would be amazing!!!

[@v8c]

WHAT? i would pay to hear her version!!

[@AjCardone]

& when people compare her to other Disney singers.... NO! Miley blows them all away with her amazing voice. I swear she's beyond talented and it's amazing how she can sing this amazing PURE LIVE 😍 I love you Miley! Can't wait for the new music!!!

[@OsmosisHD]

Aj Cardone that means you have a very limited musical knowledge. There are allot of good and insane female vocalists. And yeah you don't see them on MTV sorry bud

[@CassieJazz96]

Demi tho

[@AjCardone]

That's true Demi's voice is amazing, let's say Miley and Demi both blow away the rest of Disney!! I was just saying, Miley's voice is just so amazing compared to some artists who clearly use too much autotune! People shouldn't only focus on her performances and also focus on her unique voice!

[@femafull]

Aj Cardone I AGREE

I think i'm becoming obsessed w/ Miley Cyrus. I've just listened to about 15 songs in a row. Mostly Backyard Sessions and some duets. I had no idea how many seriously great songs she has done. At the moment I can't imagine EVER getting tired of listening to her sing ANYTHING.She has such good taste. What an incredible talent all around.

[@spooksparanormalsociety4034]

Paul Simon obviously wrote the tune, we all know that...and there have been many BAD covers of this iconic song - never used to be a fan much of Miley, but i gotta say, her enthusiasm especially on the chorus when she comes alive...man she's smiling, she's enjoying the moment, her vocals are pretty much on point, and this was actually a damn good version. Naturally there will be many who will disagree just because it's Miley, but i say nice cover, and she's found a new fan!
