It opens with a delicate, melodically-simplistic verse before launching into an explosive, rock-leaning chorus that features Cyrus at her most raw and intense.  A catchy pre-chorus succeeds in bridging the gap without spoiling the climactic aggression of said chorus, which comes in exactly as Cyrus&#8217; &#8220;Wrecking Ball&#8221; simile suggests.<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"420\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5l1Y-va_CKo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Cyrus was not the only pop hitmaker to release new audio this weekend.
