COOOK 76,406 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 So I already knew that she wrote it, gave it to Miley, and its royalties "payed her rent for years" after its success but I just found out this snippet of her recording, previously as "I think I'm gonna like the USA" Makes sense though: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just finding out she wrote it btw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just finding out she wrote it btw Probably because she was still young and it *feels* young. When they say not cool in that vid someone else posted a few comments back...yeah that’s not an adjective I’d use to describe that song. It’s cute and poppy and sweet. It’s a perfect song for a young girl *just* transitioning from Disney days to proper stardom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WORLDofGAGA 2,274 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Her version sounds great too. To me Jessie j has one of the best voices around today @W0RLDofGAGA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because the label didn't sign Jessie to be an artist yet. It seems that a lot of artists had to do their time of being a songwriter for the label before they will actually be given a chance of getting their own deal as an artist. Bebe Rexha, Gaga, and Bruno Mars all started this way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
