High Maintenance (song)

"High Maintenance"[1] is a song by American pop singer Miranda Cosgrove from her second extended play of the same name in 2011.

The song was written by Cuomo, Josh Alexander and Billy Steinberg, and peaked on the Slovakia chart IFPI at number seventy-nine.

I've worked with Dr. Luke for awhile... and he ended up introducing me to Rivers.Hiponline said of the song, "Title track “High Maintenance” sees Miranda trading tongue-in-cheek vocals about her carefree, fun-loving ways with Rivers Cuomo, who contributed as a songwriter and producer to the track.".

[4] Lauren Carter of The Boston Herald compared the sound to the likes of Avril Lavigne and Kesha and commented "High Maintenance is mostly high-octane fun, Cosgrove's all-grown-up soundtrack to letting loose and testing the rules without breaking them.

[6] Allison Stewart of The Washington Post said that High Maintenance will sound familiar to anyone who heard her modestly received, similar-sounding 2010 full-length debut, Sparks Fly or any other teen pop disc released in the last five years.
