Hopefully the instrumental will pop up on LNRP very soon! Does this mean that the instrumental will be downloadable on AllAcces? You're able to access the downloads on All Access? Oh wait, I just checked and ends up I can't download stuff (I had never tried before), so there goes that. Hopefully it will pop up on LateNightRecordPool, soon

Her vocals are totally fine in this, I don't get the criticism there. However, the song doesn't pack the punch I was expecting. Kind of meh. It makes a good album track, but as a lead single? Not really feeling it.

It's not as bad I was expecting, based on the comments, but there's nothing special about it at all.

I was surprised by so many negative comments here, considering that Sia is generally praised to annoying heights here.
This is great, major hit potential here. It's a terrific song, and might be my favorite single from her. Even with her harsh vocals at times, it stays on melody more than a lot of her other songs. When the beat drops, it's pretty much her easiest to swallow single and most commanding. Going top 10 minimum here and the Hot 100, may actually become her biggest solo hit. It's also extremely east to edit down if needed.

Listening to this got me so mad that she kept this for herself and didn't give it to Kelly. Still, I love it and the grit that Sia brought.

Lol at people still trying to drag her vocals. #overit
This is really good. Not sure if I like it as much as a lot of the 1FOF tracks, and it's certainly no Chandelier (but then again what is?), but it's a good way to kick off the new era I think. Hopefully CHR embraces her far easier this time.

#13 on iTunes. What is her highest peaking song on iTunes? I think Salted Wound went to #3, Chandelier #6 and Elastic Heart #15?

I love sia so so much but I'm not feeling alive. Her voice sounds amazing tho. I wish she would write an album for herself again

I love this song. You can just tell Sia is having so much fun giving that vocal delivery. That is all that matters with popstars. If they are having fun then who cares.

I could definitely see Adele smashing this vocally. I'm surprised they passed on it.

I really want to like her based on all the praise she somehow receives, I didn't like chandelier, didn't like elastic heart and this is just as dull as a used pencil. The only time I've personally liked her is when she did vocals on Wild Ones

It's a shame that she can't seem to recapture the magic of 'Breathe Me'.

Okay. I fucking LOVE this.
I can see why Adele turned it down though. The verses scream "Rolling in the Deep" and even the chorus to an extent.

As I suspected, this is only getting more and more amazing with repeat listens. And I'm totally convinced now this will be her biggest hit yet. The hooks are everywhere.

I like this, but don't love it. The lack of a true hook & an attempt to create another 'Chandelier' may hinder this from being a radio hit.

This better not have a slow as molasses rise on radio like her previous singles...

It's a shame that she can't seem to recapture the magic of 'Breathe Me'. Breathe me is simply too good and too special to recapture that magic. Curiously i think radio would ignore Breathe me today like it ignored it back in the day (which is a shame). Fortunately that song is linked to one of the most iconic show endings in tv history. I think the song is very good, and hopefully Adele's album will be great enough to not regret the decision of not singing this song (frankly the expectatives are so high that is almost impossible not dissapoint)

Wow, I legitimately can't with radio paying this dust its first several days of release. Are they REALLY going to be this stubborn again with her? This is her third consecutive release with very strong sales right out of the gate and its got all kinds of hooks for CHR to love! They better just be a bit slow catching on and really show it love soon, because I'm not here for them taking their sweet-6-month-ass time with a clear smash of hers again.

I really think this is excellent. That chorus is incredible, and while her vocals are somewhat grating at points, it feels fittingly raw. I hope this smashes, but I guess we're not gonna see another "Chandelier" at this rate.
