Occupy This: Miley Cyrus Takes a "Liberty Walk" in New Video
Wed., Nov. 23, 2011 11:30 PM PST by KEN BAKER

On her 19th birthday, Miley Cyrus made a very adult statement.
Late Wednesday, Miley posted a video on the web of her song "Liberty Walk," featuring news footage of the Occupy movement that has spread from Wall Street to city streets and parks around the world.
The song, remixed by her longtime producing collaborators Rock Mafia, is off her 2010 album Can't Be Tamed.

1. oh puhllleeeeeezeee

Pardon me, where are the airsick bags? :puke:

[Huey P. Long]

2. I do not care for her 'music' either, but that is hardly the point, and to 'puke' is to completely

miss the significance. I applaud her, and anyone who will show support. Over 140,000 views so far. Very good.

[tabatha]

3. I agree.

[Donnachaidh]

8. it's -not- support -- it's cashing in.

Her career was slipping, she was getting into twitter wars over her weight. What better way to become relevant? :rofl:

[Huey P. Long]

10. again,

You ascribe 'cashing in', and I say, 'whatever'. Maybe so, maybe not. Insofar as I am concerned, this suits OWS purposes, so it matters not.

153,617 views...153,617 people, young people, who may not have been exposed or considered. At this pace being released just two days ago, it may break half million.
Its mainstreaming and and an avenue of publicity aimed toward the future. That is all -but that certainly is good.

[Huey P. Long]

21. A day later and 199,937 views...and comments-

I AM TOTTALY PROUD OF THIS GRIL! MILION WORDS WONT BE ENOUGH TO SAY! SHE ISS SO ORIGINAL,AWESOME!

MACEDONIA IS WITH YOU MILEY! ♥

I just want to say I showed this to my husband, and he broke out crying, and then I did as well. It is so sad that this is happening in America. My husband says “I did not realize how bad this was, and now that all the videos are put together; I can only cry for America and the world.” I wished they would pass the Jobs Bill. God help us...

For the willfully obtuse; no dears, people aren't marching because they are "bored". Stop listening to the American mainstream media (which is all on message for a reason) and start showing a sliver of intellectual curiosity and READ UP for yourselves! The banks ARE crashing the global economy on purpose , with the intent on privatizing and controlling all governments. CEOs ARE getting hundred million dollar bonuses for taking jobs out of America. Some people aren't too lazy to protest this!

15. if she wanted to cash in , she'd insult OWS.

selling records to brain dead redneck haters of OWS is more likely than selling pro-OWS recordings to supporters of OWS.

[TheEuclideanOne]

16. For starters, I don't think that her career is slipping. But you seem

to be following her more than anybody here, so you would know better than I. I don't listen to her music, or even like her music, but this is awesome! You know that you have a weak argument and probably are against the OWS, if I can gather from your line of reasoning, and hate that it is gaining acceptance by leaders of pop culture. Perhaps it is the start of something even bigger.

If anything, people like her should be joining in on this. It will have profound affects on them.

[sabrina 1]

26. Regardless, so long as it helps the occupiers. And you have no

way of knowing that is all it is about for her. She is a citizen. She has a right to express her views. And as far as it benefiting her, that may not be the case actually, with the huge campaign already in place to discredit the movement.

I'm sure there are many celebrities who agree with the movement, but are scared to get involved in case they are successfully discredited and it could hurt, rather than benefit their careers.

She gets credit for what she is doing imho.

[spooked911]

32. very cool-- glad to have her on our side

[ZombieHorde]

12. Exactly. nt

[1monster]

7. My preference in music tends to be Jim Brickman, Yanni, Enya, Neil Diamond,

Vangelis, ballads, and folk music, with a big helping of sixties groups like The Association, New Christie Minstrals, etc.

But you know what? I kinda like this song. And I don't puke at young artists like Miley or Justin Bieber, etc. And especially not those who are trying to be socially conscience and repsonsible.

[nxylas]

4. I'm no great fan, but...

...it's good to see a *young* musician supporting OWS. It's been pretty upsetting that so far, it's mostly been veterans of the original civil rights movement coming out of retirement, instead of the younger generation stepping up to the plate. And I have to hand it to her, she's taking far more of a risk coming out in support of OWS than someone like Pete Seeger, whose politics are already well known.

[Botany]

5. Look I might no be a fan of her music but I am now a fan ..

... of Miley. Stand tall, stand strong, and stand for something.

This is a big risk for somebody who comes from a corporate sponsored background.

[Dont call me Shirley]

6. Thanks Miley, You've grown from Hannah Montana to a woman with conviction!

[K8-EEE]

9. I like it! She's been outspoken on marriage equality too....

Props 2 Miley.

[ZombieHorde]

14. She is a great role model. nt

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

22. yup

Her music may not be cup of tea, but she seems like a good person and gets unfairly lumped in with the Lohans and Paris Hiltons of the world.

[Lorien]

11. Good for her. I'm glad that she's doing some growing up and that she's able to

look beyond herself to see what's happening in the world.

[ZombieHorde]

13. Good for Miley Cyrus. nt

[Wheezy]

17. Good for her.

She speaks out on things she feels strongly about, and has voiced her support for equal rights for all people (gays in particular) and has also spoken out against the ridiculous demands that Hollywood puts on stars to be super thin. As a mom of teens, I'm proud of her. She can reach people we can't reach.

As for her career, she is still the number one teen star and has a wonderful influence on teens raised in non-progressive households because of her type of music. Her speaking out may help her fans think for themselves -- I certainly hope so. I don't think this is cashing in at all. She may even lose fans over it.

People love to hate Miley because she is so popular. The kid can't sneeze without a press release going out about it. With that in mind, she has grown to be a mature young adult.

Thank you for posting, Huey!

[90-percent]

18. Good for her

Any public figure endorsing OWS in such an open way is taking a big stand for their support of American ideals and democracy.

I am very thankful of her contribution to the movement. Her lyrics, but the images were chosen by somebody and are very powerful.

Frank Zappa would be proud of her!

-90% Jimmy

[Huey P. Long]

25. 227,845 views now. And yes, the imagery serves us very well.

As you say somebody composed them and she signed off on the effort. A quarter million young people the world over have seen it so far.

19. I'm an old time rock & roller and I like it.

Posted it on Facebook. Thanks.

[Are_grits_groceries]

20. Good for Miley!

This isn't exactly a sure fire career mover. She has also stood up for gays.

While I have wondered at her career moves at times, she doesn't give 2 hoots about what anybody thinks. She may make 'interesting' moves at times, but she isn't a pushover.

You want to know where Miley got her independent streak from? Her godmother is Dolly Parton. I can't think of a better role model.

I think Miley does have some talent. However, she is hit or miss when it comes to her career. Some songs are great, but they are few and far between right now.

But as for 'Liberty Walk,' I think she means it. She certainly knows the 99% because that is where her roots are.

[Eric J in MN]

28. Lots of negative Comments at YouTube below this video.

Some of them bashing OWS for not being like The Tea Party.

Miley Cyrus was willing to be controversial by supporting OWS.

[ellisonz]

23. Crappy song.

But hey it's good media...

[harvey007]

24. It all helps

Thank you, Miley Cyrus. This is what pop stars should be doing: using their power to support the 99%.

Young people are influenced by her and need to hear this message.

[Eric J in MN]

27. I appreciate her support of OWS. NT

[Lorien]

29. I posted this on my FB page and it woke up one of my friends!

I think that he watch it just to make jabs at Miley Cyrus and OWS, but after he viewed it he wrote "Oh WOW! I had no idea it was like this! This is bigger than the 1960's protests, and those cops!! WTF !!!? I can't believe this shit is going down here!"

One at a time folks. One at a time.

[Kath1]

30. I Like It!

Glad she is using her influence to support OWS. I don't care so much for that type of music but I like the video. My daughter loved it!
