Why the fuck was this not thought in my marketing major...... FUCKKKKKK Learn more in 11 minutes in a whole fucking semester. Great job love your work.
I don't understand how you missed so many of the all marks of sia's music and songwriting. Generally, the theme of sia's songs revolve around 1 thing, 1 emotion, or one noun. Ie Diamonds, Perfume, chandelier. she then writes lyrics AROUND that one idea or noun or emotion. next is her kind of "mantras" or even chants if you will. these are usually at the end of the song, and you will hear sia repeating one lyric, usually with strong emotional ties. "shine bright like a diamond" "I am titanium" "im alive" or her simple chant at the end of "dressed in black" " cus im just holding on for tonight" from chandelier. you will find this chanting of a lyric at the end of many of her most famous hits. and lastly, her unforgettable melodies. sia has a way of belting and modulating in a very distinctive way. when i heard rihannas "sledge hammer" i INSTANTLY heard sia's influence via the melody and intonation. she's very fond of sustained belts and changing the phonetics of words in a very "sia" way.
Ye like some of her old ones. Breathe me which to me the lyric sound reference to drugs and the toxic relationship between them. I'm In here repeats the words help can anybody see/hear/help me.
I may not get all that you're saying, but I appreciate your comments. For the longes time I thought I am the only one who dissects her lyrics and style.
Pop music is not my favorite genre, but from all the artist I know to date Sia is my favorite. The lyrics, the videos, her voice, her concepts, I mean everything about her it's just mesmerizing
@@mayconreyes3446 everyday is christmas song is just too sad, the melodies and lyrics, they are sad. people be guessing that the song is about her boyfriend who got in an accident back in, before 2004 i guess
Sia is the best. I think she doesn’t participate in her videos mostly because she is good at singing and maybe wants to concentrate on this only. She does not want to be a mediocre dancer, or actor in her videos. She leaves this to other people so she can do what she does best - sing. And her videos are sooo creative.
I feel like that even though she creates songs for different people with different lives and that that may not seem like creating an image like most artists do. But, I can always feel that in any song she makes, no matter for who, there is always some kind of undertone in the music that conveys her in a way that feels only more real and authentic because it was unintended
Her voice makes everything way more authentic doesn’t it! I’ve compared some demo songs that were sung by others and the comparison is just amazing. Will listen to the Sia version every time, simply because it sounds more than just a song.
Because her production is horrible, for someone with such success, she should be able to hire somebody who can produce something that sounds at least a little bit different than her 100 other songs
It is a shame people have not appreciated Sia's Christmas album because it is amazing. I guess I am the only one who did not feel these were the usual "happy" Christmas songs. Some of them were actually sad to me (snowman).
to be honest i absolutely LOVE her Christmas album! i think its her best album ever! i know her other albums are amazing too but i think its also just my personal preference, i love Christmas and if you combine that with one of my favorite artists you get me being hpapy and
Sia is mostly misunderstood. Her authenticity is always linked to the music. As much as she is a songwriter, there is no other singer that can produce chord ballads like she can. That's a gift. The way she is able to pitch her voice up and down naturally is unheard of. This is the reason why she can emotionally connect with the people. Her last record may be about 'christmas' but I'm sure there was a reason behind why she released it.
Lara Sabbag my interpretation for it actually pops up at the end of the video. To me, it's about the struggle of creativity (being a child) vs growing up.
All.of sia's album is the the progression of hear life. From 1000 forms of fear which is her from her dark experiences and lastly this is christmas because shes now happier and as you can see LSD project we can see shes more playful and super creative
Correct. Anyone can be Sia, because Sia does nothing special to separate herself from any other person. She’s a 47 pop star who can’t sing 10 seconds w/o an insufferable, shrieking, crackle. She is puke.
This is 100percent true: Sia doesnt listen to any music shes preoccupied with watching tv shows. But surprisingly she makes chart topping hits, how is that? She has no one who imfluenced her on making music. Thats how original she is. That is a marking of a Genius,
This solidifies my long held believe that Sia cracked the code of writing good songs. It is very impressive to see an artist that can produce in high volume with a consistently high quality.
What It Is and Frank deserve so much more recognition-way better than Back To Black in my opinion because she’s much happier. Even so, Back To Black was genius and her lyricism in the album was impeccable.
Brilliant. Studying from you this year has been like 12 months of Christmas, and this video is maybe the apex of the artist series so far. Merry Christmas and happy goat sacrifices to you, bro!!!
What I love most about her is that she's real and honest, it's refreshing. When it's about the money, she says it is about the money (like songwriting for others: she said that she discovered that quantity brings more money than quality) or singing (during recording it was hard for her to reach Chandelier's high notes so she did it once and they copy&pasted it, but fans see her as one of the "real singers" so she was embarassed) or even her as a person (in an older interview she tells how she always smells like dog piss and how she pissed on the ground surrounded by the crowd during a James Brown open air concert). She is an amazing person, I love her.
I know this is an older video but I just absolutely love watching you break down the concepts of all these artists! God, you are so intelligent and articulate. Thank you for this series, it gives me lots to think about when trying to create my own artistic image and melodic topography. You make RUclips a brighter, smarter place. It’s refreshing.
Miley Cyrus would be a great video! Also, love all the angles of analysis -- from aesthetics to psychology. Very well-rounded and thoughtful video. Thanks so much! 😀
I'd really love to see a video that looks at how Frank Ocean writes a melody. This is because I think he breaks a lot of the common pop molds these other artists fit into, yet he chooses just the elements that keeps a song entertaining, catchy, and replayable. Keep up the good work, your channel is phenomenal.
His thesis, that: if you want to be taken seriously as an artist then you better have a consistent image. Okay. I hear him. However, I feel like his reasoning was a bit flawed when using the Christmas album as an example. It is a Christmas album. Who the hell would listen to a depressing Christmas album? But in fact, Snowman is very depressing on that album. Celebrities put out Christmas albums all the time. It’s usually not considered apart of their actual artistic portfolio. Using Sia for this theisis....idk. Sia has happy songs and sad ones and it’s never been a problem. I kind of don’t agree. Just with the reasoning part.
I agree, I follow a lot of artists that have christmas albums but as I don't really like celebrity christmas songs I don't buy those albums, and I am sure other people have the same perspective :)
You have a point: however, the same conclusion can be drawn from examining her other work. If you look at her older albums, you'll notice she has been very experimental from the start. She would swing from quirky trip pop to acid jazz to more electronic stuff, and only very recently she did a full 180° turn and went full pop. I like her pre-Titanium stuff much better because I feel like it's more personal (Some People Have Real Problems is one of my all-time favorite albums), but I can still understand and respect her for the way she keeps experimenting with different styles and doing whatever the hell she wants.
La Esmeralda “pre-titanium” is a good way of looking at it. That single marked a turning point in her music and career. I would say her marketing before and after that were distinctly different trajectories
You should do one about Mariah Carey, the person with the most self penned number ones (17). Her album Butterfly is extremely poetic, more so thank you think it would be.
Man, your videos are soooo good. Your analysis is very very interesting. We all forget talking about the other aspects of music but you don't and that helps. Thanks man. You're awesome.
Initially I didnt really like Sia but playing innthe background at work over and over I realized what an insane voice she has. Now I dont really care what genre song she makes cuz that voice is dazzeling in any emotion.
I can't help crying when I hear Sia's voice, not because I'm sad, because I love her voice, personally, I consider her voice the best I've ever listened ever. After Brendon Urie of course, because bitch it's Brendon Urie.
It’s the same problem I have with Lana Del Rey. I grew in love with her music based on how melancholic it was but now that she makes happier more wholesome music her image has changed for me and I don’t see myself loving her as much, as an artist anymore.
I think this was one of the most interesting episodes so far since I knew little if not anything at all about sia, other than hearing her name here and there and a couple of songs. Looking forward to the new season!
The thing about skipping her first five albums is you skip so much content, so much of what makes Sia Sia (at least to me). There is a progression through those albums from truly suicidal songs, songs about being lost, addiction (Girl you lost to Cocaine-- such a fun video for such a sad song), blind or mute or alone (Soon we'll be found-- the video is so beautiful, inclusive because it's in sign language, yet mostly shot in the dark)... all the way to really upbeat songs about alcoholism (Co-Dependent, You Hurt Me, Bring Night On), depression (Bring Night On is pretty much a party anthem about how much better night is-- you get to drink, forget, ...)... Each album gets progressively more "pop" -sounding-- if you ignore the lyrics, that is. I know that many of those songs aren't as famous, but they definitely work with your analysis of Sia too. I think this progression is visible through her most recent albums also and through her choice to not show her face on camera: she is reaffirming that her music is about her music, something that was definitely true (but without the wig image) in the earlier albums. Consequently, without this image, Sia wasn't as well known during these 5 albums. Thanks for the analysis!
Thank you! That's what I thought. I think it's also important to say that she mainly wears the wig for privacy reasons, but in an interview she also says that she gets afraid standing on the stage above people and looking into their faces. On the Coachella interview I think she says that she still uses Xanax before every live show
Yeah. She has getting more pop in every album it's more that she choose different genres, sounds, instruments in every album And in her album Everyday is Christmass she brought back the old Sia bits and keep the new pop Sia too. I love that album, it made me cry
Her new songs sound like she's 15 but in her older songs she does sound like she's 30 I agree but now she kind of updated it all and Floating through space sounds very young
Wow! Didn't thought about that... Sia co-wrote a song with Birdy too, could you do another video about how Birdy gives emotions through her songs please?
I never took the time of trying Sia since it was a popular artist and I don't usually listen to pop music, but your video really make me want to try it out even if the music you showed us as examples don't really seem like my usual type. Nice job for the video.
I just thought of an artist who actually explored almost all of the facets of modern music who is a singer-songwriter, is capable of literally transforming into different versions of herself but still keeping her raw nature: Christina Aguilera. Like it or not, she still performs (during the same set) rock, rnb, funk, disco, ballads, pop, lounge, blues music and more. The amazing thing is that she and her music director are really capable of blending and merging them all together.i watched her show last November in the UK and I was amazed by the variety and coherence of her set list. Fun fact: she was the one who introduced Sia to the American music industry having her on The Voice as a mentor and co-wrote many songs together.
Plenty of pop artists write their own hits. Granted, often times they write with others, but the same goes for Sia. (And I know that co-writing credits are sometimes exaggerated or unearned, but I still dispute that most pop artists don’t write their own songs.)
Taylor did. I know Taylor wrote everything by herself up until 1989. She had a lot of cowriters with that one, and she had i think the same two to three cowriters for Reputation.
thats not true tho,To be a cowitter you only need to change one words at least,Sia writtes all the songs,than proffesional writters change one or two words to make it even better,but that doesn't mean that she didn't write the song...
Just catching up on this series as a series - great videos. A couple of exceptions to the idea that artists can't change identities / persona's - David Bowie and Madonna. Would be interesting to get your take on why they succeeded.

Why the fuck was this not thought in my marketing major...... FUCKKKKKK Learn more in 11 minutes in a whole fucking semester. Great job love your work.
Thank you so much for saying that! Means a lot! :)
Sia thought outside the box. Paid education doesn't.
youtube university is a real thing
Right?! Brilliant
That´s EXACTLY what I am thinking right now!!!! :D :D
the title is wrong..
Sia doesnt make me feel sad. Instead, she helped me somehow cope with sadness..
Curo Daze exactly
Her music is full of life and relates with reality, not like movies and fantasy. Her music is practical and very powerful
Indigo Rodent no. , it's not sad music, it's feelings express through music
@@sushanksaxena7699 Right. Inspirational is the word I think we're looking for.
The title is correct, because Sia makes you sad because she makes you accept your sadness
it’s weird, her music makes me feel sad yet optimistic.
i love her so much. she’s a true artist.
I don't understand how you missed so many of the all marks of sia's music and songwriting.
Generally, the theme of sia's songs revolve around 1 thing, 1 emotion, or one noun. Ie Diamonds, Perfume, chandelier. she then writes lyrics AROUND that one idea or noun or emotion.

Ye like some of her old ones. Breathe me which to me the lyric sound reference to drugs and the toxic relationship between them. I'm In here repeats the words help can anybody see/hear/help me.
Cool, you watched one interview and you think you're a singwriting expert.
I may not get all that you're saying, but I appreciate your comments. For the longes time I thought I am the only one who dissects her lyrics and style.
Sia is incredible. She has helped me so much with my mental health. Absolute legend.
me too
Yeah
Pop music is not my favorite genre, but from all the artist I know to date Sia is my favorite. The lyrics, the videos, her voice, her concepts, I mean everything about her it's just mesmerizing
Agree
In a world of prefab pop, Sia is a ray of hope for genuine, truthful songwriters.
When I listen to Sia I feel like my spirit is growing, sometimes cry and sometimes am comforted. In simpler words she is the best.
Point is Sia found a formula & is using it to perfection lol
there are many many formula, you have to find right one to yourself
Actually he said the opposite. In her album Every Day is Christmas, she wrote happy music instead and not everybody liked it right away
@@Jack.Strait Her Christmass album made me cry too, it's a masterpiece but it's not traditional so people probably hate it for it
@@mayconreyes3446 everyday is christmas song is just too sad, the melodies and lyrics, they are sad. people be guessing that the song is about her boyfriend who got in an accident back in, before 2004 i guess
Sia is life❤️ her music comforts me....she's just a form of therapy I love her
Sia is simply a genius!
Sia is the best. I think she doesn’t participate in her videos mostly because she is good at singing and maybe wants to concentrate on this only. She does not want to be a mediocre dancer, or actor in her videos. She leaves this to other people so she can do what she does best - sing. And her videos are sooo creative.
YES SIA!!!!!!! im glad you did her!!! I love that you talk about songwriting.
I wish I could do Sia
Sia will keep me crying for many years to come with big bangers to cry on wards for. thank you Sia keep my cry therapy coming girl!!!
Sia never makes me sad. She cheers me up.
I feel like that even though she creates songs for different people with different lives and that that may not seem like creating an image like most artists do. But, I can always feel that in any song she makes, no matter for who, there is always some kind of undertone in the music that conveys her in a way that feels only more real and authentic because it was unintended
Her voice makes everything way more authentic doesn’t it! I’ve compared some demo songs that were sung by others and the comparison is just amazing. Will listen to the Sia version every time, simply because it sounds more than just a song.
You should analyze why katy perry is flopping. No shade, just for knowledge tho
Cuz people are scared of clowns.
Because her production is horrible, for someone with such success, she should be able to hire somebody who can produce something that sounds at least a little bit different than her 100 other songs
Because Dr Luke is not her producer anymore
OMG THANKS! THANKS!!! SIA IS MY FAVORITE ARTIST AND I HAVE BEEN ALWAYS WAITING FOR THIS VID
Even her Christmas album everyday is Christmas , it's weird , happy lyrics but depressed voice
ughhh she’s such a legend
How about a lorde video
Sahil i second & third this comment!!
I fourth and fifth this comment!!
OOOooh yes please!!!!!!
Sahil oh my god yes
Sahil I would LOVE that!
It is a shame people have not appreciated Sia's Christmas album because it is amazing. I guess I am the only one who did not feel these were the usual "happy" Christmas songs. Some of them were actually sad to me (snowman).
I really like the album for what it's worth ;)
thank God they are not usual "happy" cliche Christams songs!
Karla Delgado
Even with the happy ones , her vocals are depressive
@@rmz4863 Yes im glad somebody has said it. Her vocals are indeed depressing. Even her happy songs.
At least now snowman has been appreciated and is immensely popular
*Sia* is an *Angel*
You should make a video about Lana Del Rey
Michael Del Rey Yes please
YES PLEASE
Michael Del Rey Yes, that would be wonderful!
yes please!
Michael Del Rey I would love too!
to be honest i absolutely LOVE her Christmas album! i think its her best album ever! i know her other albums are amazing too but i think its also just my personal preference, i love Christmas and if you combine that with one of my favorite artists you get me being hpapy and
I now have a new respect for Sia. She is a True Artist.

Please, do a video about Florence + The Machine, I’ll love to hear what you have to say. Amazing ideas on this video, simple and consistent
Yes. I’ll subscribe for that
Why did you skip elastic heart tho?
Lara Sabbag my interpretation for it actually pops up at the end of the video. To me, it's about the struggle of creativity (being a child) vs growing up.

Thank you for this video! Good work! SIA IS LOVE, SIA IS LIFE. GODDESS SHE IS!😍😍
Sia doesn't make us sad...
She relates to us
Yeah
Why am I crying after watching this video, I love Sia and she's my Queen
Sia is a symbol. Anyone can be Sia. Sia is Batman.
Wow.
Frusciante likes Sia
Yea but no. Not anyone can sing like Sia. Take that haiku elsewhere.
Correct. Anyone can be Sia, because Sia does nothing special to separate herself from any other person. She’s a 47 pop star who can’t sing 10 seconds w/o an insufferable, shrieking, crackle. She is puke.
thats what special about her voice and they're healthy techniques
But no one can sing like her.
This is 100percent true: Sia doesnt listen to any music shes preoccupied with watching tv shows. But surprisingly she makes chart topping hits, how is that? She has no one who imfluenced her on making music. Thats how original she is. That is a marking of a Genius,
As a fan of Sia's work, I knew a lot of this stuff but man, thanks for making this video. It's great material.
This video made me love Sia even more
Please please do Lorde next, she's a pretty amazing songwriter
This solidifies my long held believe that Sia cracked the code of writing good songs. It is very impressive to see an artist that can produce in high volume with a consistently high quality.
can you please do amy winehouse next
OMG YES PLEASE, her & Lana are the ones I'm waiting for!
literally my inspiration
Definitely. Amy Winehouse had an amazing voice and sound. She made a sound that still hasn't been met.
What It Is and Frank deserve so much more recognition-way better than Back To Black in my opinion because she’s much happier. Even so, Back To Black was genius and her lyricism in the album was impeccable.
Brilliant. Studying from you this year has been like 12 months of Christmas, and this video is maybe the apex of the artist series so far. Merry Christmas and happy goat sacrifices to you, bro!!!
Kai Ellis Love it! ;) thanks and to you too!
What I love most about her is that she's real and honest, it's refreshing. When it's about the money, she says it is about the money (like songwriting for others: she said that she discovered that quantity brings more money than quality) or singing (during recording it was hard for her to reach Chandelier's high notes so she did it once and they copy&pasted it, but fans see her as one of the "real singers" so she was embarassed) or even her as a person (in an older interview she tells how she always smells like dog piss and how she pissed on the ground surrounded by the crowd during a James Brown open air concert).
She is an amazing person, I love her.

so happy to have discovered this channel. Wow, such in depth analysis. Music industry and music itself is complex. It's not just an "art."

SilentAssassin01234 i agree!!!!
Man, your videos are soooo good. Your analysis is very very interesting. We all forget talking about the other aspects of music but you don't and that helps. Thanks man. You're awesome.
Sia really is a legend if u ask me
This is a great video of one of my favorite artist. I saw her in Austin last year. I can't thank you enough for this.
I oftentimes find myself in an odd situation where I suddenly cry watching videos about sia, and I really don't know why.
Initially I didnt really like Sia but playing innthe background at work over and over I realized what an insane voice she has.
Now I dont really care what genre song she makes cuz that voice is dazzeling in any emotion.
these videos are a fresh approach to pop music. i'm very glad I came acros this!
WOW! Not sure how I ran into this but I'm in goosebumps, so this is definitely not a cheap thrill. Great piece!
I loved the Christmas album! It does have some sad song on there as well
I just found my new favorite channel this year!
wow u're great! thank u for such a detailed analysis! very accurate! ps love ALL Sia's album
I liked how you explained difference between an artist & a singer
I can't help crying when I hear Sia's voice, not because I'm sad, because I love her voice, personally, I consider her voice the best I've ever listened ever. After Brendon Urie of course, because bitch it's Brendon Urie.
It’s the same problem I have with Lana Del Rey. I grew in love with her music based on how melancholic it was but now that she makes happier more wholesome music her image has changed for me and I don’t see myself loving her as much, as an artist anymore.

Define happy !!!!! Have you heard “Snowman”???
Finally some one who can put words on why I can't stand Sia! One of the best analysis videos ever!
OMG, this is so fantastic! I loved to watch this, my mind just blowed.
Loved the video, very professional cut, so interesting in its content. Thanks.
The thing about skipping her first five albums is you skip so much content, so much of what makes Sia Sia (at least to me).

Wow! Didn't thought about that... Sia co-wrote a song with Birdy too, could you do another video about how Birdy gives emotions through her songs please?
This is what i would call deep analysing ! Great job !
Forgot maths, I think I found my favourite channel. I've been looking for a type of blog or RUclips channel analysing artists.
Pls do an analysis video on Bjork’s songwriting 😘her songwriting is very unique and interesting.
I learn so much from your videos...thank you so much. :)
I was going to ask you like a week ago to cover her she is very interesting and intriguing person i feel and love her voice amazing!!!
That's why I ❤💚 Sia !
I never took the time of trying Sia since it was a popular artist and I don't usually listen to pop music, but your video really make me want to try it out even if the music you showed us as examples don't really seem like my usual type. Nice job for the video.

No one's saying that Sia didn't write her own songs. We're just saying that Sia is far from the only pop star who writes her own songs. :)
atngo15 she can be the only singer songwriter cause she writes even for others💜
That was super well researched. Love it
I’d love an episode on Shawn Mendes or with a band like Kings of Leon
Just catching up on this series as a series - great videos. A couple of exceptions to the idea that artists can't change identities / persona's - David Bowie and Madonna. Would be interesting to get your take on why they succeeded.
Y'all need to check out Sia's work with Zero 7!!!
She doesn't make me feel sad, she gives me inspiration and knowing I'm not alone I'm not just a weird ass person.
Ugh her MIND is so POWERFUL!
I see sia as the Goddess of music. 😍😍😍
