Miley Cyrus breathed new life into the rock classic song “Maybe,” and fans believe Janis Joplin would be proud.
The “Flowers” songstress put her own spin on “Maybe” during her set at the Bud Light Super Bowl Music Fest in February 2022, performing the song in the same style as Joplin famous version from the late ’60s — and she did not disappoint.
Like many of Miley’s covers of classic songs, her rendition of “Maybe” left fans feeling extremely impressed by her powerful vocals and gritty, goosebump-inducing tone.
“She sang the hell out of this song,” one YouTube viewer commented under an audio clip from the performance, which was later included on her 2022 live album, Attention: Miley Live.
“Seriously got goose bumps listening to this. I haven’t felt music like this since the 70’s. another commenter noted, while someone else added, “This version is INSANE! What an artist, what a talent, what a woman!
Others assumed that Joplin would be proud of Miley’s rendition, with users taking to the comments to say things like “Janis is smiling in heaven” and “I just know this would give Janis chills too.”

“Maybe” — which is regarded as Joplin’s best vocal performance by Far Out Magazine — was recorded by the late rocker in 1969, and appeared on her debut solo album, I Got Dem Ol’ Kozmic Blues Again Mama!
But even though she made the song sound indisputably her own, Joplin wasn’t actually the original singer of “Maybe.”
Written by Richard Barrett, the track was originally recorded by the R&B and doo-wop girl group The Chantels in 1957. Their version peaked at No. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 across a total of 17 weeks at various spots on the chart.
Joplin’s version never appeared on any of the Billboard charts, but that hasn’t stopped the song from becoming one of the most cherished performances of her career.
