Hollywood Records and RCA in a battle to see who can be the worst record label 

The fact that those two were the labels Miley spent her whole career with, until 2021

[Mocha]

The part about sueing radio stations who would play it is so weird, like why would you sabotage your own artists like that 

[Giancor]

I was obsessed with this song. 2008-2009. Great memories ❤️

I guess the record wanted to give us a new pop icon like britney , its a pitty when the record labels want to transform an artist to what they want to push 

 

[Avenger]

A smash hit song! 

[diboy]

Love it. Its such a cool song. Still listen to it almost two decades later

[BryceG]

So it did have a music video, but it was an edited live performance with added iMovie effects.

 

UK radio edit >>>

The way everyone agrees this is a perfect pop song and she has grown adults stanning in 2007

 

This makes so much sense though, it always confused me that SYA was MMC’s first single yet it came out months after the album release  Maybe Hollywood didn’t see MMC as a legit album/era until SYA organically smashed and forced their hand.

so they were gonna waste money on a lawsuit but not promo?

They wanted control, the song smashing only would prove they were out of touch.

 

It’s so dumb but white men with money in suits, what more could you ask for

[Rev8]

The way I haven't heard 1 good thing about Hollywood Records

 

I have no idea why Demi stuck with them

when they are the reason she didn't reach her full potential

She could have paid for it herself.

This is true. She was very rich already at that time and many artists have funded videos for their music they love, like Britney for example.

[JustHoran]

Hollywood Records is a trash label and now they are flopping hard with literally zero hit artists

[HANZ94]

Hollywood records was truly a shitty label and still is 

 

such a crime a bop like see you again didn’t get a music video in fact meet Miley Cyrus only got 1 video 

[Wildcat]

Pop perfection 

[Sad Serenade]

Hollywood Records has never been smart and it's well known.

[Mr. Duff]

Happy that Hollywood Records were so wrong because See You Again is such a great a pop song!

[t.A.T.u.]

It's her best song, tho.

[blown away]

Such a dumb label. See You Again is a great song and its stats prove the public was here for it.

 

What's a Start All Over even? Never heard that song.

[FlyOnTheWall]

One of the best pop songs and debut singles of all time, oh what could've been with a music video

Because ATRLers are clueless. Miley was smashing as Hannah and herself.

*new* ATRLers...some of us were around for the days Hilary, Miley, Selena were smashing in their early days. 

 

Pop and pop cultures never been the same tbh.

[Kamil24]

imagine your label paying to get the radio to STOP playing your song

Exposing the 20 year veterans 

[AvadaKedavra]

The label was really dumb. They ruined the career of so many artists like Jesse Mcrtney. Even with some of their big stars like Miley-Demi-Selena they **** and the profits were there
