Background
Cyrus stated in a press release: "This writing process has been a really different experience because I've never put out an album this way. People have been asking me, 'is this like a re-introduction of yourself?' But it's not that at all. Actually, it's more like, I am this person who embraces all my past selves. This album is the most me for right now that I can be."[4]
Critical reception
Tatiana Cirisano of Billboard described the song as "a twangy, country-tinged break-up waiting to happen".[5] Ross McNeilage of MTV News called the song a "a country kiss-off to an unsatisfying lover", and felt it is "full-out country in its production, compared to the airy fun vibes of 'Malibu' and 'Younger Now', as Miley sings of leaving over a familiar-sounding guitar melody".[6] Deepa Lakshmin of the same publication opined that the song "takes the opposite approach" of "Malibu", as it "is basically one giant breakup fantasy".[7] Chris Thomas of Out called it a "twangy, country song", and felt it would make listeners "strumming their imaginary guitar on their fire escape while they cry and chainsmoke".[8] Luke Britton of NME regarded the song as "another country-tinged, retro affair" that "concerns a break-up".[9]
