“The Lighthouse” singer is using her platform to advocate for reproductive rights.
to talk about the importance of voting in this year’s high-stakes election and why she wishes she participated in
Nicks began explaining the reasons why she waited to vote and believes so many others have too. “You can say, ‘Oh, I didn’t have time. I was this and that.’ In the long run, you didn’t have an hour? You didn’t have an hour of your time that you could have gone and voted,” she recalled. “In the end of the 50s and 60s and into the 70s, everyone was writing protest songs. Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, Stephen Stills,” Nicks said. “I would say to all my musical poets that write songs to write some songs about what’s happening like I did.”
“They’ll take your soul, they’ll take your power / Unless you stand up and take it back / Try to see the future and get mad,” she sings in “The Lighthouse.” “It’s slipping through your fingers, you don’t have what you had / You don’t have much time to get it back.”
