Miley Cyrus has shared the official music video for her latest single, ‘River,’ which appears on the pop star’s eighth studio album ‘Endless Summer Vacation.’  In the black-and-white visuals, the singer dances under a spotlight on a raised, lit-up platform and later in the video, water begins to rain on the performers as ‘River’ intensifies towards the end.

Cyrus explained recently on social media that ‘Endless Summer Vacation’ was split into two parts, ‘AM’ and ‘PM’: “The ‘AM’ to me is representing the morning time, where there’s a buzz and an energy and there’s a potential of new possibilities. It’s a new day … As for the ‘PM’ part … At nighttime, it feels like there’s a slinky, seediness and kind of a grime but a glamour at the same time. In the evening, it’s a great time for rest, it’s a time to recover. Or it’s a time to go out and experience the wild side. In LA, there’s a certain energy to the night and you can feel trouble boil up to the surface and it’s very inspiring to me.”

‘Endless Summer Vacation,’ described by Cyrus as a “love letter to LA”, was recorded in Los Angeles and produced by Kid Harpoon, Greg Kurstin, Mike WiLL Made-It and Tyler Johnson.  Take a look at the video for “River” – here.
