In January, Miley Cyrus<\/strong> was announced as one of the participants in\u00a0Everyone\u2019s Getting Involved: A Tribute to the Talking Heads\u2019 Stop Making Sense<\/em>,\u00a0featuring artists of different genres singing songs by Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Talking Heads<\/strong>. At the time, the song that Miley had covered wasn’t announced, but now it’s official.<\/p>\n

Miley has recorded one of Talking Heads’ signature songs, 1977’s “Psycho Killer<\/strong><\/a>.” On her Instagram Story, she’s posted a snippet<\/strong><\/a> of her cover, revealing that she’s turned the quirky, new wave tune \u2014 written from the perspective of, yes, a psycho killer \u2014 into an upbeat dance banger.<\/p>\n

Fans suspected that “Psycho Killer” was the song Miley had recorded because in March, a video posted on social media showed her singing the song at Chateau Marmont, complete with new lyrics: “I love you psycho killer\/ I\u2019m gonna love you forever\/ You know I\u2019ll never run away.”<\/p>\n

The tribute album, due out May 17, celebrates the 40th anniversary of the release of Jonathan Demme<\/strong>‘s Stop Making Sense<\/em>,\u00a0Talking Heads’ legendary 1984 concert film, which is often considered one of the best concert films ever made. In addition to Miley, other artists participating include Paramore<\/strong>, Lorde<\/strong> and the rock band The National<\/strong>, which includes\u00a0Taylor Swift<\/strong> collaborator Aaron Dessner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Miley’s involvement with the Talking Heads project isn’t a surprise since she’s friendly with the band’s frontman,\u00a0David Byrne<\/strong>. He guest-starred in her 2023 New Year’s Eve special on NBC, joining her for several songs, including\u00a0a cover of<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0David Bowie<\/strong>‘s “Let’s Dance.”<\/p>\n
