Oh, I forgot about this. I am so fucking excited for Tuesday.

:bow:

 

[You Know Nothing]

Chandelier shits and slays a lot.

 

[Dr. Malik]

I'M GONNA SWING FROM THE CHANDELIER, FROM THE CHANDELIER
I AM GOING TO FEEL LIKE TOMORROW DOESN'T EXIST, DOESNT EXIST
SOMETHING SOMETHING ELSE

 

[WhereAreMahDragonz]

Chandelier

Holy shit

 

[paperheart]

Sia delivering the goods as per.

 

[royalan]

I told y'all. I've been saying since OT3.

When Sia finally comes out with new solo material she was going to drag.

Chandelier slays. And it's so uniquely her, despite all the people she's collaborated with.

I'm ready, Queen.

 

[Cosmic Bus]

Song is okay, but I have never liked her vocals. Too much squeak toy/mouthful of marbles for my tastes.

 

[You Know Nothing]

I'M GONNA SWING FROM THE CHANDELIER, FROM THE CHANDELIER

I'M GONNA FLY LIKE A BIRD FOR THE NIGHT, FEEL MY TEARS 'CAUSE IT'S RIGHT

I think that's what she sings. She is unintelligible a bit.

The verses and pre-chorus are my favorite parts. Lordt.

 

[Nemesis_]

What's with her voice

 

[Booty Patrol]

that chorus

 

[Aguila]

Meh.

 

[Booty Patrol]

She's basically shouting.

It's no wonder Roy stans.

 

[royalan]

Flawless, unique interpretive ability?

It's no wonder Roy stans.

Oh pfft...

Her voice IS raspy on the track, even for her. But that's clearly the point. She IS shouting.

 

[cory64]

I don't love it but there is something more raw about it than her usual midtempo cowrites.

Oh please at least when Sia gets on stage she doesn't look and sound like an epileptic rooster with ataxia

Spoiler

I have a feeling she might actually have ataxia though so maybe I should take this back

 

[Leona Lewis]

I'm not here for new-age, sweeping balladry Sia of late, though it's just a personal taste. Girl can mumble-sing like nobody's business, and the song has 150% potential to slay radio because it's so impactful and immediate.

I was talking to Mumei a few months ago about tracks that seem to have been tailor made for other artists, and I cited You've Changed as (once slightly up-pitched) the absolutely perfect song for a mid-80s Whitney Houston.

I can seriously hear it in my head, with that regal accentuation of hers, and it's GLORIOUS

FOR THE BUTTER

Spoiler

Mariah circa 1995's track that wasn't but should've been was Before You Walk Out of My Life by Monica

Listen to it in headphones, sis.

not one mention of the mixing in your post. :\

I dunno it just sounds like she's trying to imitate James William Bottomtooth III in this song at times and I never got that from her previous solo efforts.

I prefer her catchy kind of "groovy" songs to her annoying sweeping anthemic songs.

 

[Koodo]

I use. Let me support her. #prettyhurts

But her last album was full of sweeping, anthemic ballads and midtempos. She doesn't just sing "Breathe Me" mellow tunes. In fact, that's the minority of her discography.

i hated it at first but now i love it

I meant stuff like You've Changed, Clap Your Hands and Sun Comes Down (or is it Up) I can't even remember

I didn't want to drag the good sis too hard, but this track makes Lotus seem nuanced in comparison. A crime to human hearing.

 

[royalan]

I like her Indie/Disco mid-tempo stuff, too. But I also love her shouting-from-the-mountain-tops ballads, too. :/

oop, the tea

 

[royalan]

If only Florence Welch had Sia's emotional range she wouldn't be such a flash-in-the-pan...

 

[Koodo]

Awful. No resonance, little forward placement with a throaty quality, almost no squillo, slightly under the pitch, with a lot of tension in her voice and a ridiculous tremolo.

 

[You Know Nothing]

Can't stop listening to Chandelier.

Siallah Her power.

 

[xaosslug]

Chandelier

not Sia keeping dat good shit for herself... this song is so fucking hot. I can't even.

it seems like such a waste, tho. :'(

Right sis!?

I LOVE those head notes in the chorus. They're so messy in a way...but they fit that moment. It takes a real artist to know her vocals that well. Of all the artists Sia's collaborated with, I can't think of a single one who could sing this song like she does.

not PopGAF dragging Florence, ch...

Will listen to Chandelier on my way to Uni but I can't say I've ever been there for Sia. I only really heard of her thanks to her million credited songs and Popjustice's intense stanning.

I liked Elastic Heart, but the chorus was near unintelligible.

Sis, listen to Sia's solo albums. The type of music she makes for others really is different than the stuff she reserves for herself.

Yes let me co-sign this. It is not a Bonnie McKee scenario.

slay a bit, SIA

 

[Vitanimus]

Listened to Chandelier, on first listen the chorus seems a bit iffy and strained but I think it'll grow on me. Everything else sounds ***flawlesss tho. Sia, Queen of Queens.

As expected.
