Stevie Nicks has revealed she didn't vote until six years ago.
The 76-year-old singer admitted she wishes she had become politically active sooner in her life.
"I never voted until I was 70, but now I regret that, and I regret that and I tell everybody on the stage for the last two years, I regret that," she said in an interview with MSNBC. "And I don't have very many regrets."
She explained her previous apathy, saying, "There's so many reasons; you could say, 'Well, I didn't have time'.... 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?"
The Fleetwood Mac star was inspired to write her new song, The Lighthouse, after Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022.
The single includes the lyrics, "Don't let them take your power/ Don't close your eyes and hope for the best/ The dark is out there, the light is going fast/ Until the final hours, your life's forever changed /And all the rights that you had yesterday /Are taken away."
In the interview, she gave a call to action to her fellow artists. "I would say to all of my musical poets that write songs, write songs about what's happening like I did," she said. "I was terrified to put this song out, and then I thought to myself, 'You know what, at 76 years old, really? I put the song out and people are listening to it."
Stevie has previously said that writing her latest song "may be the most important thing I ever do. To stand up for the women of the United States and their daughters and granddaughters - and the men that love them.' This is an anthem."
