Fresh off of an interview with Billboard about her change in looks and lifestyle, Miley Cyrus has released a music video for the lead single from her upcoming album.

In the video, the singer’s look is just as stripped down.

Walking on the beach in a sweater and bikini bottom, Cyrus sings about reconnecting with a romantic partner.

In other scenes, she’s standing in a field with two low pigtails, laying in tall grass and sitting on rocks as a waterfall flows behind her.
