Miley Cyrus Performs Bold New Single ‘More to Lose’ on ‘Kimmel’

The Grammy winner delivered a powerful performance of her Something Beautiful track to the late night stage

Miley Cyrus delivered a rush of emotion to Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday night, performing her potent single “More to Lose.”

Appearing with a live band elevated by violins, the Grammy winner was illuminated by spotlights as she took the stage in a dark, hooded coat, echoing the visuals of the track’s music video released earlier this month. The live rendition on the late night stage saw Cyrus bring the full force of the track’s poignant chorus as she sang, “And you say it, but I wish it wasn’t true/I knew someday that one would have to choose/I just thought we had more to lose.”

“On a song like ‘More to Lose,’ I try to keep it a singular take. I add my harmonies, ad-libs at the end, but it’s really a song that’s more of a story and I never want that to be interrupted or overthought or chasing perfection,” Cyrus previously said in an interview posted to her Instagram. “I never wanted ‘More to Lose’ to feel perfect, I wanted it to sound meaningful and emotional.”

The singer dropped “More to Lose” this month, following April’s lead single “End of the World.” Cyrus unveiled the 13-song track list for Something Beautiful on Monday, featuring collaborations with Naomi Campbell and Brittany Howard. The upcoming album is slated to arrive May 30.

Something Beautiful will be accompanied by a visual album, which is set to have its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 6. A synopsis of the project, directed by Cyrus with Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter, details it as “a unique visual experience… including 13 original songs from the upcoming album. A one-of-a-kind pop opera from the mind of Miley Cyrus.”
