It may have killed it in the charts back in 2013, but Miley Cyrus now describes her smash hit track Wrecking Ball as "her worst nightmare".
In the video for the emotional single - which is about a relationship that's gone sour - Cyrus is seen licking a sledgehammer andswinging around on a wrecking ball with no clothes on.
And she'll "never live it down".
It came up during an interview on The Zach Sang Show, where Cyrus played a game of "Marry, Eff, Kill" with some of her songs.
"Marry would probably be The Climb because it still has a message I'm down with," said Cyrus. "Eff would be 7 Things. Kill would be Wrecking Ball."
The Malibu singer went on to explain that she feels haunted by it.
"That's something you can't take away ... swinging around naked on a wrecking ball lives forever. Once you do that in the mass that I did, it's forever."
Cyrus added: "I'm never living that down. I will always be the naked girl on a wrecking ball. No matter how much I just frolic with Emu, I'm always the naked girl on the wrecking ball ... I should have thought how long that was going to have to follow me around."
She also said she's hoping the hype around the controversial clip will have cooled off by the time she dies.
"That's my worst nightmare is that being played at my funeral," admitted Cyrus. "That's my worst nightmare ... is being like, 'We'll always remember Miley,' and then that. 'She was a great person.'"
