"Angels Protect This Home," the last track on Billy Ray Cyrus’s new album Thin Line, takes a different tone from the preceding songs: it's an eight-minute dirge starring a Tibetan singing bowl given to him for his birthday by daughter Miley Cyrus, who also sings on the track. In an interview with Taste Of Country streaming above via Stereogum, Billy Ray said that "Angels" was more of a "prayer" than a song. "What she says is what was coming through her mind at the moment," he says of Miley's lyrics. Listen to the interview and hear a sample above.
