SIA: WE ARE BORN

Sia’s new record has a little something for everyone.  Clap Your Hands and You’ve Changed are dope up-tempo dance tracks.  Bluesy Be Good To Me will appeal to the bawdy broads.  Fans of the vulnerable earnestness of Breathe Me will relate to I’m In Here.  She even dusts off Oh Father, and sangs it better than Madonna ever has or ever could. Sia had the good sense to keep all the best stuff for herself instead of putting it into Aguilera’s embarrassingly incompetent BionicChristina could take a cue from Sia’s vocal creativity and self-restraint.Sia possesses one of the most distinctive and resonant voices in modern music.  Don’t miss her vocal luminosity on this well-rounded record.
