A gravação de “Wrecking Ball” ocorreu entre 2012 e 2013 em diversos estúdios na Califórnia e Nova York, nos EUA, e em Toronto, no Canadá.
A canção ficou famosa não só pela letra que fala sobre o fim de um relacionamento, mas também pelo vídeo que, em 9 de setembro de 2013, apresentava Miley nua balançando de um verdadeiro balão de demolição, provocando debates sobre sua provocação e ganhando o título de vídeo mais visto no primeiro dia de lançamento na Vevo (19,3 milhões de visualizações).
Em 2013, “Wrecking Ball” alcançou o topo da Billboard Hot 100, manteve o primeiro lugar na segunda semana, caiu e depois voltou ao número 1, marcando a maior lacuna entre dois assentos de número 1 na história da lista.
A faixa conquistou diversos prêmios de vídeo, incluindo Best Video no MTV Europe Music Awards de 2013, Video of the Year no MTV Video Music Awards de 2014 e World's Best Video no World Music Awards de 2014 em Monte Carlo, além de ser exibida em performances ao vivo como o iHeartRadio Music Festival, Saturday Night Live e o “TikTok Tailgate” antes do Super Bowl LV.
Em 2023, Miley Cyrus regravou “Wrecking Ball” como dueto com a cantora country Dolly Parton para o álbum “Rockstar” de Parton, mostrando a longevidade da música e sua capacidade de se reinventar.
