I love Sia so much that I'm afraid I won't be able to find the words to describe her music and make you want to discover this Australian artist born in 1975 who released her 3rd solo album early in 2008...
Drink To Get Drunk (on her first LP Healing Is Difficult) was a club hit thanks to its haunting yet efficient remix by Different Gear. But Sia is mostly known for her numerous collaborations with British duet Zero7.
Sia Furler then met success with Breathe Me heard during the last sequence of the final episode of the amazing show Six Feet Under... The album Colour The Small One (2004) is a true masterpiece.
For Some People Have Real Problems, her 3rd installment, I was at first a little doubtful with the surprising artwork, and with the extracts I had heard that (for some reason) thought sounded a little cheap. Plus, the diffusion of the CD in France was very uncoordinated (we had to wait a whole year before the Fnac displayed a non-import version)...
Finally I decided to purchase it... and I'm completely overwhelmed. Between the vibrant blues of Death By Chocolate, the perfectly distillated emotion of Beautiful Calm Driving, the melancholic energy of Buttons or the sour optimism of The Girl You Lost To Cocaine (the crazy video below), I'm totally conquered!
Sia - The Girl You Lost To Cocaine
As often, Sia's single is already remixed, this time by Stonebridge, and the track can be found on many club compilations...
