"Party in the U.S.A." launched Miley Cyrus's first EP, The Time of Our Lives, as its lead single in August 2009, after hitting radio at the end of July. Dr. Luke produced it and wrote it with Jessie J and Claude Kelly, and Jessie J had passed on recording it herself after writing it. The song turns Cyrus's own move from Nashville to Los Angeles into a pop-rock sugar rush, with Dr. Luke stacking guitar, keyboards and drums under her and Serban Ghenea and Jeff Rothschild mixing it to a high gloss.
Critics fell for the hooks and her singing, the song peaked at number two on Billboard's Hot 100, and it has since gone diamond. Chris Applebaum's video set it at a drive-in, a nod to Grease and to her parents' courting days.
