Miley Cyrus – Secrets ft. Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood
In September 2025, Miley Cyrus unveiled Secrets, a track that stands as both a confessional ballad and a gesture of reconciliation. Released as part of the deluxe edition of her ninth studio album Something Beautiful, the song has been described by Cyrus as a “peace offering” to her father, Billy Ray Cyrus. More than a single, it is an act of vulnerability — carried by an understated arrangement and her most open-hearted vocal delivery in years.
The song brought together an unexpected pairing of generations. Featuring Lindsey Buckingham on guitar and Mick Fleetwood on drums, Secrets reunited two icons of Fleetwood Mac within a modern pop setting. Their playing underscores Cyrus’s voice with texture and gravity, bridging rock history with her own personal narrative.
At its core, Secrets reflects on intimacy, trust, and family fractures. Cyrus has spoken of wanting to create a musical space in which her father might feel safe to express himself. Billy Ray, in turn, publicly thanked her, calling the track “the best birthday gift a dad could ever ask for.” Released just a day before his birthday, the song’s timing underlined its personal intent.
The video, co-directed by Cyrus alongside Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter, was filmed at Los Angeles’s Million Dollar Theatre, one of the city’s earliest grand movie palaces. It pairs the song’s fragility with stark theatrical imagery. Cyrus appears in avant-garde couture — ethereal white gowns by Iris Van Herpen and sleek black looks from Maison Margiela, even a bedazzled face mask — moving between vulnerability and armor. Empty aisles, sharp silhouettes, and spare lighting reflect the song’s themes of secrecy and revelation.
Critical reception has noted the song’s restraint. Rather than aiming for a chart-ready hook, Secrets leans into emotional clarity, allowing space for its message to resonate. With Buckingham and Fleetwood’s contributions anchoring its sound, and Cyrus’s raw delivery foregrounding its intent, Secrets feels less like a pop single and more like a turning point: a personal statement transformed into public art.
