Although the song has been around since the band Blondie wrote it in 1978, Miley Cyrus creates a new take on the upbeat tune with her recent cover of “Heart of Glass.” The singer reveals her exceptional vocals through the vivacious notes that represent the discovery of internal strength. While it is no secret that Cyrus is an iconic singer, tracing all the way back to her role as Hannah Montana, her cover of “Heart of Glass” not only introduces the song in a new way but proves to be a mature singing style that Cyrus experiments with.

Though I am not a huge fan of songs from the 70s, Cyrus presents “Heart of Glass” in a way that can only be described as electric. Her vocals and energy light up the audience by allowing them to connect with the song itself through the lively tune and empowering lyrics. Through the passion exhibited in her performance, Cyrus shows off her vocal duality by belting out notes and singing in styles that people have yet to hear from her. However, her voice is not the only star. While watching the performance, I found it hard not to sing along because she dominates the stage with her expressions and interacts with the audience through her performance. Furthermore, the booming drums and thrilling instrumentals add to the performance by matching Cyrus’s energy. Even the audience adds to the performance through their energy and cheers. This song cover is one to dance to and sing along with your friends.  

Cyrus appreciates and gives tribute to “Heart of Glass” by introducing it in a new era allowing people of all generations to connect through music. Overall, if you love upbeat songs with excellent instrumentals, then Cyrus’ cover of “Heart of Glass” is one to listen to.
