Miley Cyrus expresses desire to cover ‘Father Figure’ by George Michael
Miley Cyrus wishes to add own twist to ‘Father Figure’ by George Michael
Miley Cyrus appears to be taking a page out of Taylor Swift’s book, since the singer has expressed an interest in the same song as the latter.
The 14-time Grammy winner interpolated George Michael’s classic Father Figure on her song with the same name for The Life of a Showgirl and now the Hannah Montana star has expressed an interest in it.
In a cover story with Variety, the Flowers singer stated that the cover song she wants to take on next is the 1987 hit.
“I want to do ‘Father Figure’ by George Michael. I cannot quit listening to that song, and I think it’d be so cool from a female perspective. What I look for in a great cover song is: One, I want a song I wish I would have written — when I listen to it, I’m jealous because it’s not mine,” Cyrus stated.
She added, “And two, I always think about what emotion it’s bringing up, and do I want to share that? But it mostly comes from a gnarly sense of jealousy, just a song that I wish was my own.”
The news of her interest in the cover has gone viral on the internet, with many users comparing it to Taylor’s track.
