In March 2025, the American singer Miley Cyrus announced her ninth studio album, Something Beautiful , and shared the trailer to its accompanying musical film, also titled Something Beautiful .

"Every Girl You've Ever Loved", the eleventh track, was announced to feature Campbell. [2] [3] Cyrus stated that she decided to create the song after Dolly Parton's positive reception to its title, when Cyrus shared it to her before the writing process began. [4] [5]
Columbia Records released the album Something Beautiful, including "Every Girl You've Ever Loved", on May 30, 2025. On the same date, Cyrus performed the track and "Easy Lover" at the 3 Dollar Bill bar in New York, where an album release party took place. [6] In the visuals for the song included on the accompanying film, Cyrus and Campbell perform and dance in an empty warehouse with dim lights. [7] The visuals were released as a music video on June 30, 2025, one day after being teased by Cyrus on her social media accounts.

Music critics categorized "Every Girl You've Ever Loved" as a disco [14] [15] [16] and disco pop song. [9] Campbell appears with an spoken-word speech, in which she praises Cyrus: "She's got that kind of grace / Did Botticelli paint her face? / She's got the perfect scent / She speaks the perfect French". [16] For NME , Nick Levine compared the sound to the ballads by the British band Coldplay, and Campbell's participation to the English musical duo Pet Shop Boys. [17]
Several critics highlighted "Every Girl You've Ever Loved" as a standout on Something Beautiful. [18] [19] Elle included "Every Girl You've Ever Loved" on a list of the best music released in May 2025; the magazine's writer Samuel Maude perceived it as a "fashion anthem" and said that it had possibilities to become "[Cyrus's] next big hit". [19] Billboard 's Lyndsey Havens ranked it as the fourth best track on the album and described its latter half as "the perfect soundtrack for a spellbinding vogue-off". [15] Several music publications believed that the lyrics of "Every Girl You've Ever Loved" referenced the English-Albanian singer Dua Lipa. [20] [21] In a more negative review, Daisy Carter of DIY criticized its lyrics as cliche and "a laboured emulation of 'yass queen' sass", and Campbell's participation as not beneficial to the song.
