It's just a random charity song, released on a Saturday 

It's not a big deal

I literally didn't know about this until this post WHAT why no promo?

Listen to my debut pop single 'Want You Bad'! (link on Insta)

It’s just a random song for the pandemic. I agree, horrible numbers, but it’s not like it’s supposed to be a lead single or anything. Probably something she randomly whipped up at home and released it.

She’s got a movie coming out in September and an album as well, so she probably just wanted to give something to her fans that was uplifting for the current climate and also to tide them over until her big releases.

In saying all this, I’m a HUGE Sia stan, but this song isn’t that great :vegas:

As a fandom, we were kind of shocked about these numbers too, because normally she does well on Spotify. We blamed it on the lack of promotion (none in fact) and no playlisting whatsoever. Yesterday, however it received a lot of playlisting (New Music Friday mainly and pretty many other playlists) and promo got better a week ago too.

Today it got 815k streams (798k filtered), which was a pleasant surprise. I’m curious what it does tomorrow though.

I never even knew she was releasing a new song. You don't need to provide shady answers guys, it's just no promo.

I didn't even know she had a new song out? Since "Dusk Till Down", her newer songs don't really come much on the radio here...They're always playing "Cheap Thrills" and "Chandelier".

Because I couldn’t start my own thread, I’m just going to post it here:

https://siasurprise.com

Sia's going to release/announce something the 20th of May.

The site quite clearly says “Stay at home” so don’t go searching for the badges during this pandemic! If you live near it, you’ll get the following information in a picture and a video of the old wig changing into the yellow  and pink wig :). (Now you don’t have to leave cause that’s all of the information :))JFVo7aPsqEh8EwcXbK1rz49G

the thing with sia is... she is so uninteresting and ever since Chandelier's success, she has been rehashing the same song over and over again

her earlier albums were good, but lately she has become so basic :rip: and then there's her being pretty unlikable with some stuff she tweets like

 

 

Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride

Well, then maybe next time show your good mood and be a bit positive. The fact is, she is not uninteresting and has not been using the same song over and over again. I don't know if you have even listened to This Is Acting. 

The Greatest sounds nothing like Cheap Thrills, Alive sounds nothing like Space Between, Free The Animal sounds nothing like Dusk Till Dawn, Flames sounds nothing like Snowman and I could go on and on and on. 

And about that tweet: don't be so rude to someone that just tried to be positive. She donated a MILLION dollars to a corona related fund alone (let alone all the charity she has done in the recent past and before that) and released a song to donate all of the proceeds to corona related causes. She literally just tries her best.

I really love her, but this song is an abomination, literally so repetitive that when I first listened I thought its a prank

Tbh she doesn't market herself as a pop star or performer, she seems like she prefers writing in the studio and it's clearly yielding a particular result.

I'm not sure if "yielding a particular result" is positive, but you are right. All she wanted to do was write music and by accident she got featured on a track that did really well (Titanium). She just wanted to be out of the spotlight.

After that success, she just wrote for many artists and everything that got released as her own work, was just an extra for the fans. What's more, she has already proven herself and made enough money to live a comfortable life, so now she can just do whatever the heck she wants and she does exactly that. She isn't interested in charts that much. She just wants to do what she likes.
