Butterfly Fly Away
"Butterfly Fly Away" is an acoustic pop duet performed by American actors and recording artists Miley Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus. The song was first heard in the 2009 film ''Hannah Montana: The Movie'', in which both Cyruses star, and was subsequently released on the film's soundtrack. An extended version is featured on Billy Ray's eleventh studio album, ''Back to Tennessee''. The song is a soft country ballad with lyrics that describe a child's transition to adulthood.
The song received generally favorable reviews and, though not released as a single, achieved notable commercial outcomes in Australia, Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It reached its highest international peak in the Irish Singles Chart, at number forty-six. The Cyruses performed the song live at several venues; a performance in an English Apple Store was recorded and eventually released on an extended play.
== Background ==
As with Miley and Ray Cyrus's last duet, "Ready, Set, Don't Go" (2007), "Butterfly Fly Away" describes a child's transition to adulthood.〔 The song was written and produced by Glen Ballard and Alan Silvestri for the 2009 film ''Hannah Montana: The Movie''.〔 According to the film, when main character Miley Stewart (played by Miley Cyrus) was young, her father Robby Ray Stewart (played by Billy Ray Cyrus), would often tell her that while a caterpillar may not be able to move much, it can still dream about the butterfly it will one day be.〔 〕 This comment became a recurring motif in the film and provided the basis for the lyrics to "Butterfly Fly Away", which use a caterpillar's metamorphosis as a metaphor for a child's coming of age.〔 In ''Hannah Montana: The Movie'', the Cyruses perform the song as their characters in "a tender movie scene under a gazebo in the rain". Billy Ray said filming the scene was "a pretty special moment. The song itself was written by Glen Ballard, a masterful songwriter who wrote 'Man in the Mirror' for Michael Jackson. I knew it was a pretty special song () and it certainly comes at a nice spot in the movie."〔
The contemporary country duet is set in common time with a gentle tempo of 69 beats per minute. The song's vocals range one octave, from C3 to B4. The song is written in a key of B major and features the chord progression, Esus2—B—C7.〔
