Miley Cyrus reveals her label didn't see the potential in "See You Again"

She decided to release her first record — a double album where one disc was titled Hannah Montana 2 and the other was Meet Miley Cyrus. Whilst she believed in her own music –– specifically the first single, “See You Again" –– her label, the Disney-owned Hollywood Records, didn’t feel the same. Despite this, the song ended up being one of her biggest hits, and her first top ten.

“My record label at the time didn’t think the song was a hit, so there was never a music video made for it,” she says in the latest installment of her “Used to Be Young” TikTok series. “I wrote that song in a way that would feel really personal to Miley so there would be no confusion between me and the character. But yes, my record label told me that the song wasn’t gonna be a hit. And my fans decided otherwise. It’s always been us.”

♬ Used To Be Young - Miley Cyrus

Last week, Miley Cyrus released the brand new single "Used To Be Young". Alongside the new single, she announced the new video series in which she reflects on her life over the past three decades.

"Sometimes it feels like my life started when Hannah Montana was born. But before Hannah there was Miley. My fantasy was to light up the world with laughter, music & iconic moments that last beyond my lifetime. Decades later I continue to fulfill my purpose because of the love provided by my fans," she wrote, before encouraging fans to keep an eye on her TikTok page over the next few days.
