Bret Michaels Talks 'Nothin' To Lose' Controversy

Bret Michaels says his new song featuring Miley Cyrus, “Nothin’ To Lose,” is nothing to get defensive about.

The 46-year-old Poison rocker told Us Weekly that he wrote the song “a couple years ago” for a solo performance and that Miley was excited to record harmonies to his song.

Us Weekly pointed out that the lyrics to the song could be construed as inappropriate: “We both know better than this/Still we can’t resist/Slowly get undressed” while over the chorus, they both sing “Won’t you fall down on me/So close I can feel you breathe.”

“It’s blown out of proportion,” Bret said. “I just thought it was a beautiful song.”
