Miley Cyrus Drops ‘Edge of Midnight (Midnight Sky Remix)’ Featuring Stevie Nicks
It’s the dead of night (well, depending on your time zone,
it is), the perfect hour for a “Midnight Sky.” Miley Cyrus just dropped a new
remix of her recent track tonight, featuring Stevie Nicks by way of Nicks’s own
eternal 1981 bop “Edge of Seventeen,” which the remix not so much heavily
samples, as joins forces with.
Given the similarities between the songs, Cyrus had, in
fact, reached out to the Fleetwood Mac singer to get her okay before its
release. “I actually had this song blessed by Stevie Nicks, because there is a
kind of a nod to ‘Edge of Seventeen’ in this song,” she explained on the Zach
Sang Show in August, as Harper’s Bazaar points out. “So, I actually reached out
to her directly about, ‘this song, it has your spirit, your magic.’ I actually
wrote this whole kind of message about, you know, ‘the kind of artist I want to
be is the kind of artist that you’ve been for me, like I just hope that I can
be that for other people.’ When I’ve felt lonely, Stevie Nicks has been there
for me, whether she’s known it or not.”
