Miley Cyrus, Sufjan Stevens Open Letter [VIDEO]: 'Chicago' Songwriter Pens Sinead O'Connor-Esque Grammar Lesson to 'Bangers' Songstress Over '#GetItRight' Lyrics

Miley Cyrus has been receiving a lot of advice from Sinead O'Connor recently, in the form of several open letters addressing the young singer's recent image change and mounting success. Cyrus has not been reacting well to these letters, thus leading to more open letters from the "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer. Though this little back-and-forth with these singers is pretty entertaining, indie-folk songwriter Sufjan Stevens has joined the "open letters to Miley Cyrus" game with a comical grammar lesson about her Bangers track "#GetItRight."

Though this open letter is meant in more of a joking way, Sufjan is still giving the 20-year-old advice when it comes to songwriting. Well, writing in general really. In a post on his personal blog, Stevens addresses all of the grammatical errors in Cyrus' "#GetItRight" (lyric video HERE) while also complimenting the young performer.

Check out Sufjan Stevens' open letter to Miley Cyrus right here:

Dear Miley. I can't stop listening to #GetItRight (great song, great message, great body), but maybe you need a quick grammar lesson. One particular line causes concern: "I been laying in this bed all night long." Miley, technically speaking, you've been LYING, not LAYING, an irregular verb form that should only be used when there's an object, i.e. "I been laying my tired booty on this bed all night long." Whatever. I'm not the best lyricist, but you know what I mean. #Get It Right The Next Time. But don't worry, even Faulkner messed it up. We all make mistakes, and surely this isn't your worst misdemeanor. But also, Miley, did you know the tense here is also totally wrong. Surely you've heard of Present Perfect Continuous Tense (I HAVE BEEN LYING in this bed all night long [hopefully getting some beauty sleep?]). It's a weird, equivocal, almost purgatorial tense, not quite present, not quite past, not quite here, not quite there. Somewhere in between. I feel that way all the time. It kind of sucks. But I have a feeling your "present perfect continuous" involves a lot more excitement than mine.
