Sia - Gimme Love / Reasonable Woman

[rhythmbandit]

Single out today, album out next year.

 

[Pipo]

meh

 

[Ellie]

Has she not croaked out those vocal chords yet?

 

[Halli]

well I am not sure that will catch on like Chandelier

 

[funky]

I'd like her to go full circle and back to her deep moody shit trip-hop era. She's done all she can in pop and was always more comfortable in that range. She doesn't need to shout over big melodies anymore, radio has stopped caring for her.

 

[Christian]

The film really did her career in (and it was horrible).

 

[Halli]

Gimme Love added straight to R2 A List anyhow

I spoke to soon then

Sia won't get a hit in 2023. thank god.

she's such an interesting* case, whatever talent (or taste) she had just... disappeared

*although not in the sense that I actually want to spend any time thinking about such a relic of the past as SIA

Radio 1 may swerve her now though, I think they were all over her last era?

I think Unstoppable was a bit of a hit (at least in the tiktok sphere) so I won’t say it’s out of the question that she might catch on again.

This is shit obviously and yes I miss when she made interesting music.

 

[jyxz]

Album out today.

It’s actually quite good!

 

[jyxz]

Even *gulp* the Paris Hilton track.

 

[Joseph]

 

[Rita]

Ouch. That is REALLY BAD.

 

[Halli]

Oh dear, where did this albam chart/shart in the UK?

 

[ManicKangaroo]

#59 with sales of 2380

 

[AlgoAlex]

Maybe she can go back to doing stuff like she did for the Colour The Small One…

 

[VoR]

Is there anything listenable on the album?

I’ve given up hope on another Breathe Me, but is there even another 1,000 Bullets or Fire Meet Gasoline?

 

[funky]

Sales sound REASONABLE (Woman)

 

[Shoat]

She always made clear she was doing the big pop smashes just for the $$$

Hopefully now the $$$ has dried up, she'll go back to Zero 7 and stop SHOUTING all the time

not exactly, but there are some moments that resemble Unstoppable, Cheap Thrills and Diamonds. There's no real progression from the last two albums.

 

[Shoat]

This made me all nostalgic, so I looked back and it's apparantly 20 years ago to this very month that both "Breathe Me" and "Somersault" were released and semi-charted.

And SHIT ME but that stuff SHITS all over her current tripe. "Chandelier" in itself is a magnificent song, but it absolutely set her down a rotten lucrative path.

 

[funky]

It's hard to believe it's the same woman who gave us songs like THIS



I mean Sia walked so that Billie Eilish could RUN!
