Stoked for this! Her voice is so perfect. I love the chalk single cover art, too.
Has she had any solo hits in the US? I'm probably forgetting something obvious.

Her first solo single in 4 years (aside from that soundtrack single) has just premiered and it's amazing! No adds date yet but it will hopefully get one soon.

This is a smash. It's a bit erratic, but it works.

Why is she trying to sound like Rihanna? Is it payback season for the fact that Rihanna copied her vocal from the 'Diamonds' demo note by note?

I'm going to actually go out on a limb and say that this is the best pop song to come out of the 00a thus far. Utterly fantastic.

She drops this single and it causes an earthquake in Los Angeles. The impact :'(
This is a really great mash of classic Sia and modern Pop Sia. The lyrics are amazing and personal but the chorus is gigantic, and her vocal on this is :o

I hope Sia's success with features can translate into her getting a solo US smash, I really wish 'Clap Your Hands' had blown up.

Surprised by this! Two years ago I'd have said huge smash without hesitation. Now I'm a bit unsold on its hit potential (as in, it could go either way), but it's infectious and the drum beat is very 2012 hot. Now if only she could re-record without the marbles in her mouth?

I wanted to like this, with all of the good reviews from people who generally have infallible tastes, but it just isn't doing it for me. I love "Titanium" and a few of older songs, but I'm not feeling it.

Apart from not being able to understand 75% of what she's saying and the weird as hell vocal delivery, I like it.

FUCK YAS, show them 20 something bitches how a party song is done gurl! This is slaying me, it better smash. And sorry but those saying her voice is bad on this need to listen again, her vocals make this just like on Wild Ones/Titanium.

Undeniable jam, you go Sia! I love how this bitch saves the best material for herself.
I won't make any specific chart predictions out of fear for being later quoted, so I'll just say this is going to be huge.

I seriously can't stop listening to this. I don't even remember the last time I've been slayed this hard this fast by a song. That chorus and the way she belts it out, OH MY FUCKING GOD! If this doesn't smash I'm ending it all.

She is SUCH A TALENTED MOFO that the world can hardly contain HER!!!
Don't even get me started on how much I will heart FOREVER "She Wolf" & "Elastic Heart" was worthy of a spin or 5!!
Girl doesn't get nearly enough justice due to her not "looking" like a pop star. It's just ALL SORTS of WRONG in a COSMOS of ways!!
I LOVE SIA & this is another soon to be CASE FAVORITE!

The chorus is as epic as a pop chorus can get. Her voice is distinctive and limitless. I live for this song! :'(

This is great. I need this to smash enough to make up for "Clap Your Hands" doing nothing.

Look at this bitch shooting for the pop stars with her own material. I can't say I blame her after giving away her best hooks to others for years. She is a brilliant songwriter and has a fucking incredible voice. My favorite song of the year so far, no question. I want to repeat it over and over.
