Miley Cyrus Is Done With The Whiskey And Pills In Pensive 'Slide Away' Video

Relationships and parties are nearly the same things. They're magnificent to be in plus a wonderful experience for all involved, however once they're over, someone has to pick up the pieces left beyond and tidy up the disaster. Miley Cyrus' covers this in her new video for "Slide Away," her recently released break-up anthem that comes at a time once she's newly single. She was along for the experience of a lifetime and right now it's the morning immediately after. Groggily, she has to sift via memories of the night before and tidy up the disaster left in the party's wake.


Miley floats in and out of consciousness in "Slide Away," like she's intoxicated. Love does that. The home around her, which if we're grasping at straws, is her mind, is in shambles. Beer cans, pizza boxes, and other kinds of trash litter the pool that she stands in and the rest of the surrounding area. There was one hell of a party last night that Miley enjoyed, for the time being, only to notice that right after it's over the next morning, someone has to tidy up everything on the ground. While in the visual, we visualize her reliving the party and juxtapositioning the lively atmosphere of the night before (the relationship) with the current disheveled aftermath (breakup). It doesn't end with a resolution. Miley lays her head in her arms and stares off into the distance. It's at this point that we're not so sure if she's aware the video is even still being shot. She's deep in her memory museum, reflecting on the party of a lifetime, grasping onto these feathers of the past before they glide away in the wind.


Miley performed "Slide Away" for the initial time ever at the 2019 VMAs last month. She shared the song immediately after splitting with her ex-husband, Liam Hemsworth, earlier in August.
