The Rumours are true: Miley Cyrus has officially released “Secrets,” her new single featuring Mick Fleetwood and Lindsey Buckingham.
The collaboration appears on the deluxe edition of Something Beautiful, out today. “Secrets/I want to keep your secrets,” Cyrus sings, across the legendary rhythm section. “Like sunlight in the shadow/Like footsteps in the grass.”
“This song was written as a peace offering for someone I had lost for a time but always loved,” Cyrus said on Instagram. “In my experience, forgiveness and freedom are one and the same. Thank you to Lindsey Buckingham & Mick Fleetwood for bringing magic to the music. This song is for my dad.”
News of the collaboration first surfaced in late August, when Billy Ray Cyrus posted a snippet of the track on Instagram, revealing his daughter penned it for him. “For my birthday, Miley gave me the gift of music and wrote me a song called ‘Secrets’ and got my favorite musicians Fleetwood Mac to play on it!” he wrote.
This isn’t the first time Cyrus has dabbled in the world of Fleetwood Mac. Back in 2020, she released “Edge of Midnight (Midnight Sky Remix),” which mashed up her hit “Midnight Sky” with Stevie Nicks’ 1982 classic “Edge of Seventeen.”
“Secrets” is one of the two additional tracks on the Something Beautiful deluxe, alongside “Lockdown” with David Byrne. Cyrus released the standard edition of Something Beautiful in late May; Rolling Stone included it on their list of the Best Albums of 2025 So Far. The album — Cyrus’ ninth LP to date — featured Brittany Howard and Naomi Campbell. “All 13 songs have a special place in my heart,” Cyrus said at the time.
Though she still has no desire to tour, the singer recently revealed she’s planning something “really special” for the 20th anniversary of Hannah Montana, which occurs in March 2026. “Without Hannah, there really wouldn’t be this kind of … this me,” she told SiriusXM’s TikTok Radio.
“It’s so crazy to think, too, that I started as a character that I thought was going to be impossible to shed,” she added. “And now that’s something that when I walk into a space, it’s looked at as this sense of nostalgia or something that you have from your childhood, but I’ve now been as kind of integrated into everyone’s life as the character itself. So that’s exciting to get to celebrate that.”
