Live Performances
On December 31, 2007, Cyrus performed the song along with "G.N.O. (Girl's Night Out)" and "We Got the Party," a duet with the Jonas Brothers, on the 2008 episode special of Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest. "Start All Over" was then most notably performed on Cyrus' first headlining tour, the Best of Both Worlds Tour. On the tour, the song served as the opening number for the portion of songs that Cyrus performed as herself. The song was proceeded by the interlude from the opening act: first leg by the Jonas Brothers, ("Year 3000") second leg by Aly & A.J. ("Rush") and third leg by Everlife. During the performances, Cyrus wore a gray metallic jacket, a white T-shirt and black leggings. It began with Cyrus emerging from the bottom of the stage and then roaming around the stage to perform the song. Cyrus' performance of "Start All Over" during the tour received mixed to average reviews by critics. Maitland McDonagh of TV Guide magazine stated that Cyrus' return after the Brothers was an up-beat "vague rocker-chick grab." A promotional music video from these live performances was made to promote the Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert film.
On June 7, 2009 at the twentieth annual A Time for Heroes Celebrity Carnival, Cyrus performed the song, coupled with "7 Things", "Breakout", "The Climb", "The Driveway," "Fly on the Wall", "These Four Walls" and "See You Again." Proceeded by "Breakout", it was second on the set list of her first international concert tour, the Wonder World Tour. In these performances, Cyrus wore black boots, skimpy black shorts and a tank top. Throughout most of "Start All Over," Cyrus stood on a movable scaffolding, which was used at the end of the opening number. She also performed it at the Rock in Rio concerts in Lisbon, Portugal and Madrid, Spain.

Famous quotes containing the words live and/or performances:
“We are now a nation of people in daily contact with strangers. Thanks to mass transportation, school administrators and teachers often live many miles from the neighborhood schoolhouse. They are no longer in daily informal contact with parents, ministers, and other institution leaders . . . [and are] no longer a natural extension of parental authority.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
“This play holds the season’s record [for early closing], thus far, with a run of four evening performances and one matinee. By an odd coincidence it ran just five performances too many.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
