Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus discussing the song Used to Be Young.


Miley Cyrus’s godmother, Dolly Parton, shared her candid opinion on the 2023 hit song Used to Be Young. According to Cyrus, Parton expressed mixed feelings about the track's theme.


During an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Cyrus explained how her godmother reacted to the song's lyrics. “She goes, ‘I don’t know if I like that new Used to Be Young song because it’s not fair that you’re singing about not being young when you’re young and beautiful.’ And then she said, ‘Here I am, almost 80, and I feel like that song should’ve been mine!’” Cyrus recalled with a laugh.


The song, which debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, explores themes of youth, growth, and maturity, reflecting on Cyrus’s evolution from her wilder years.


Reflecting on the release, Miley admitted to second-guessing her decision to share the track. “I actually listened to that song yesterday and thought, ‘Did I really need to put this out?’ With where I am today, being more private, I might’ve kept it to myself. But I’m happy I shared it,” she said.


Released in August 2023 as part of Cyrus’s Endless Summer Vacation album, Used to Be Young resonates deeply with fans while showcasing a side of the singer’s personal journey.


“It’s such a personal song that it might not be easy for everyone to relate to,” Cyrus concluded.
