Miley Cyrus and Pharrell Williams Team Up on New Song ‘Doctor (Work It Out)’

    Miley Cyrus has shared a new song, ‘Doctor (Work It Out)’, which was produced by Pharrell. The single arrives with a Jacob Bixenman–directed video, which you can check out below.

    In an interview with Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe, the artists revealed that ‘Doctor (Work It Out)’ dates all the way back to 2012. “We just knew it was early,” Williams said. “You just never know. And there’s a moment where you feel like you feel the stickiness in something, but you may feel that the environment is not ready for it.”

    The track arrives a month after Cyrus won her first Grammy Awards, snagging Best Pop Solo Performance and Record of the Year for ‘Flowers’, the lead single from last year’s Endless Summer Vacation. “We just believe so much in timing and in everything happening when it’s supposed to,” Cyrus added. “And around the Grammys, Pharrell and I were talking about putting the song out, and it just felt like it was so serendipitous, and there were so many alignments and so many moments that made me know that now was the perfect time. And then sometimes things in our past make more sense in our present than they ever did then. And so this song, I think the nature, the celebration, the feeling, especially with the video, the joy, the dancing, the letting go, it’s what this song really always needed.”
