Which legendary singer was in the studio with her?
Smilers rejoice!
It’s been a year and a half since we've heard any new Miley Cyrus music and now she’s teasing a sultry new track.
In the 15 second teaser posted on Instagram over the weekend, the 22-year-old is in the studio and belts out the sappy lyrics, “Why do people only show forgiveness when they wanna sound cool in a song?”
But Mi-Cy wasn't alone! The “Wrecking Ball” singer also revealed that Wayne Coyne was in the studio with her. The Flaming Lips singer also shared an Instagram video – and you can hear more of Miley’s vocals in the background. It’s unclear if the two snippets are from the same song, but either way we’re just happy to hear new music.
This isn't the first time Wayne and Miley have collaborated.
Last November, the former Disney star joined the band on stage for a trippy performance on Conan. The pair also got matching chest tattoos last year in honor of Miley’s late dog, Floyd. And, let’s not forget the super eccentric short video they teamed up for with Moby: Blonde SuperFreak Steals The Brain.
In a new interview with Billboard, Coyne talks about working with Miley.
"At the moment we just sort of work on things as they come up, so part of this seems like something we're working on with Miley, but we're also working on it as a production. We make it as a song and then she gets added to it, we add more to it, and then she gets added to it again," Coyne explained.

In January, Miley opened up to ET about her upcoming album, revealing that getting the new material out to fans is definitely a priority.
“I'm trying to get this stuff out ASAP, I'm working on it,” she shared. “I'm in the studio every day at my house. I just I don't know what I want to go out there. I'm still writing, so much is still happening in my life that just when I think I have my record done something new happens where I want to write about it.”
