High Maintenance is the second extended play (EP) by Americanactress and popsingerMiranda Cosgrove, released by Columbia Records and Epic Records on March 17, 2011. The EP was preceded by its lead single, "Dancing Crazy", which was co-written by Canadianpop punk singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne with Max Martin and Shellback, who produced it. The single became her first to chart on the Top Heatseekers chart, peaking at number 21. The single also charted on the Hot 100 Airplay chart, peaking at number 49, as well as peaking at 36 on the Pop Songs music chart, which is based upon airplay on pop radio. It also charted in countries such as Slovakia, where it peaked at number seventeen. High Maintenance was made available for pre-order on March 2, 2011, the same day that "Dancing Crazy" became available for free download on iTunes.
The EP was promoted mainly through touring and live promotional appearances on television. The main promotion technique was the Dancing Crazy Tour, named after the EP's lead single. The tour, which had over twenty stops in North America, lasted for almost four months with a four-month interission, beginning January 24, 2011 and ending February 25, 2011 and resuming July 15, 2011 and ending August 10, 2011. Greyson Chance opened up for her on all dates of the tour. The duo also performed "Dancing Crazy" together on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on March 9, 2011. Other promotional techniques included a performance at the Hard Rock Cafe on the day of the EP's release, as well as interviews on talk shows such as The Today Show and The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
High Maintenance is an American television and web series created by husband and wife team Ben Sinclair and Katja Blichfeld.
The show follows a nameless marijuana deliveryman called The Guy (played by Sinclair) as he delivers his product to clients in New York City. Each episode focuses on a new set of characters as they all procure their cannabis from Sinclair's character.
On April 20, 2015, HBO announced that it has ordered six television episodes, to premiere in 2016.
Story
Almost all of the episodes in this character-driven web series are named after an unseen peripheral character that someone in the episode mentions (the one exception being "Heidi"). The characters are meant to be relevant, regardless of whether or not the viewer engages in similar activities. This web series is shot throughout various neighborhoods in Brooklyn and occasionally Manhattan. Each episode is between five and twelve minutes in length. "Freed of the constraints of thirty-minute or one-hour formulas, the episodes are luxurious and twisty and humane, radiating new ideas about storytelling," wrote television critic Emily Nussbaum in an article for The New Yorker.
In an interview with Billboard, Cosgrove revealed a duet with Rivers Cuomo, co-written by Cuomo, along with Josh Alexander and Billy Steinberg and produced by Cuomo.
Reception
Critical reception
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.". James Christopher Monger of Allmusic wrote that the song had a more adultpop sound. 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." Mikael Wood of Entertainment Weekly said the song is stronger than before. 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."
