Her voice cracking slightly during the high pitched parts is amazing in how instead of sounding scratchy it sounds emotionally painful. It's almost like you can feel her crying out when she sings it. Simply beautiful.
Sia never ceases to amaze me with her voice and her bubbly energetic personality. she's beautiful, unique, and confident to be herself. You dont see a lot of singers like that these days
I bet she has one of the most beautiful and impressive voices and maybe even the best female voice currently. I wish to be able to sing like her, but actually, rarely anyone could match her awesome vocals. This song really touches the heart. She feels too desperate and so she drinks and she feels ashamed from herself and likes nothing. Just her voice is enough to tell. A very beautiful, strong, and impressive voice. A very great song. One of my favorites. I just keep listening to it without ever getting bored.
The basis of the song is not about alcohol and suicide. Swinging from the chandelier is an expression of relief and joy, but it can also be a metaphorical expression of the desire to commit suicide, such as a feeling of frustration as a result of suffering, difficulties, challenges, and worries. The same applies to narcotic medications and alcoholic usages. These are side thoughts and one of the aspects of suffering in the writer’s life.
The song, in general, is about the meaning of life and its repercussions and our purpose, away from the concept of self-absurd entertainment as absolute happiness, attachment to the spiritual side, beneficial contributions, and dealing with worries and suffering to live a happy life, including (regarding Sia’s life) mental illness and depression, and various fears, difficulties, and tragedies.
The power in Sia's voice in nearly every one of her songs (especially this one) is beyond powerful. When she belts it, goosebumps appear all over my body. She has one of the best voices I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. I hope the rest of the world can see it so she can become as successful as she wants.
TheCrannySmith "goosebumps appear all over my body" .. Same thing with me and I start swinging as well ... it's like flying in the space without directions
Haha you do realize sia has and still is very popular...that's why if you ever see her live she doesn't show her face because she doesn't wanna be in the spotlight another reason she puts most of the spotlight of the dancers...sia is a huge hit not only vocally but a lot of the songs you hear girl pop stars sing were written by sia lol sia is amazing lol
What an incredible voice! There's not many ladies who can even get close to singing this song from start to finish without their breath or voice running out. I'm just saying it takes more than you think to belt this one out properly. She's amazing!

SIA, please take this comment to HEART! BELIEVE THAT You have MORE PEOPLE ON YOUR SIDE WHO SEE YOU AS BEAUTIFUL, GIFTED, AND ESPECIALLY TALENTED! YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL VOICE AND LOOK. FORGET THE HATERS...........THEY HIDE IN THE SHADOWS AND MAKE NASTY COMMENTS BECAUSE THEY WILL NEVER SOAR LIKE YOU IN LIFE. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP, GURL.....................AND SING! WE LOVE YOU!
She may read this comment and take it kindly but her struggle with the public is a lot more than stage fright. Graves is a serious thing and so is depression.
Joshy joshy its a vevo page so she may not get to see it now if it was on her twitter/facebook/instagram or (what ever she may use) page she would get to see it sometime and i agree depression is a killer i have it and so does a few of my friends and we talk about it all the time and tell each other what happened and stuff like that just to keep each other happy and to keep each others depression down
GUSS dx je vais te faire un dessin et te montrer une photo... Desolé si c'est moche mais j'ai que 9 ans... (raison pour laquelle j'ai arreter beyond minecraft...)
I very like your channel! Merci Guss dx pour toutes tes vidéos et les frissons que tu me donnes avec tes Beyond Minecraft! Bon courage pour la version IRL!
The incredible beat and melody is covering up the message in this song. Not to mention Sia's beautiful voice. I don't think people realize how sad this song is...
I love this song. It's a beautiful dope song. Whenever I sing this song, the high head notes in the chorus have helped me when it comes to accessing and mastering my Head voice. I applied what I already know when it comes to accessing Head voice, and the high head notes in this song were a tool that made me realize the difference between my Head voice, and my Falsetto even more when hitting the notes, and applying what I know. Thankyou Sia for this song, and your amazing vocal arrangement you created while making it.
In my opinion this lyric video has a clearer message that the official one, it may be more artistic & whatever, but it doesn't show the message as much as this video does. The message i get in this video is that when you drink you become invisible. Amazing!
In her official video; the dancer Maddie is expressing how Sia feels when drinking. It was posted before in the official video what the dance meant. At first when drinking, she feels all "happy" and "energetic" that's why the dance is filled with lively excitement and craziness. Then when she wakes up, "sun is up I'm a mess" the dancer shows the lassitude after drinking >> the hangover. At first I thought the official video was a bit weird until I read the post that someone else made.
Found the original comment: This video is practically a masterpiece. I didn't understand the video at first, but after finding out its meaning, I watched it again and realised how beautiful the song and especially the interpretive dancing was. As described by the user Joshua Wheeler: "It's about the stages of alcohol. The first part is about being happy and drunk and partying, The second part is about trying to carry on daily life like eating and brushing your teeth but feeling horrible. Lastly, the third part is about attempted suicide (as demonstrated at 2:56 when she "hangs" herself from the curtains). It represents Sia's past and how she used to be addicted to drugs and alcohol". Watch it again with this in mind, I promise the video is actually quite remarkable.
I think this video and the official one (with the girl dancing inside an apartment) have a meaning: people who dream big and want to live their lives at its fullest, but simply don't know how and end up doing something that fill that emptiness inside them temporarily. The drinking and party and get a crazy night full of emotions, the girl dancing beautifuly like if leaving a dream (but inside an empty and kind of sad apartment) make me think of that kind of people who make a fantasy life inside their minds but don't go out of their own shells because they don't know how to make their dreams come true in real life.
songs like this have a million interpretations. for me, i think its relate able. only because someone dearly close to me died recently. it hurts when i think about it - so ive been using alcohol and drugs to numb that feeling.. but after im done these binges i feel like shit, because i know it was the wrong thing to do but i continue to numb that feeling and so on and so forth. its a never ending cycle.. however i am changing that bit by bit, but still; "party girls don't get hurt" that is the most clearest sentence i have ever heard.
Starlee King sorry to hear about your loss. I think your interpretation of the song is correct. It is clearly about numbing emotional pain. "Party girls don't get hurt"...she's numbing herself...she's feeling the "love" of everyone else blowin' up her phone to go out and so on. She's just holding on for tonight...just holding on. You can't see some wounds. Emotional pain is a very real wound. Despair is hard to fight at times. Holding on is hard at times. That's why we need to seek help and talk to someone who understands. Feeling alone in our pain is the worst. Talking about it helps but still doesn't erase that pain. However, it helps us to process things and hopefully, one day the wound can somewhat heal. Take care Starlee xo
Sia was at one with the songwriting Gods when she wrote this astonishing piece of music. Most songs are lucky if they have a hook or two, this is loaded with them. Add to that the subject matter, a last but not least is Sia's stunning vocals. Easily one of my top five all time melancholic songs, along with Don't Dream It's Over We Were Never Young The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and Daydreaming
Last Friday night, Sia came into where I was working again. We were chatting, and she told me she'll be on Letterman soon. But, she won't be seen while performing (she'll be singing live offstage), and that she basically only wants to do her thing without becoming "famous" or losing her anonymity. I kinda respect that. And this video shows what she described!
thefluxcbf Don't hate! :) We have some mutual friends, and I know her manager too. Also, her growing up story and photo is featured in my book. Search for "Born This Way: Real Stories Of Growing Up Gay", you'll find it. She's a total sweetheart. And Lord, the talent!
Paul V. I don't hate you. You are just lucky. I am currently living near Toronto, so I am always hoping she will perform there. Unfortunately I will be going back to my country in 4 months, so as the time goes I realize that it won't happen. =( I will watch that video. Maybe it will help me fight my own demons. Tell her that she is awesome and thank her for the awesome music.
Everything about this song is a big difference from sia's old songs and vids. She doesnt even sound like this in her earlier songs, even reminded me of rihanna in the beginning. Still, i love this song and cant stop listening to it
She originally wrote this song planning on giving it to Rihanna or some other pop singer but felt it was too personal so she kept it for herself. She's actually a successful pop song writer.
*SIA* bet she has one of the most beautiful and impressive voices and maybe even the best female voice currently. I wish to be able to sing like her, but actually, rarely anyone could match her awesome vocals. This song really touches the heart. She feels too desperate and so she drinks and she feels ashamed from herself and likes nothing. Just her voice is enough to tell. A very beautiful, strong, and impressive voice. A very great song. One of my favorites. I just keep listening to it without ever getting bored.♡
i do have no complaint about this song since ive been always patiently waiting for her to produce more song for her own.. she have the most exquisite voice ive ever heard.. i love her despite all of other people complaining about how she has changed.. she changed her style on music and substance and despite all that i think this song still great rite? love you SIA!!!!
Edit: Sober for 30 months now. This song still hurts, because like Sia and I, there are 3% of us worldwide that struggle with this ugly disease of addiction, that kills your relationships with everyone around you, and ultimatily, yourself. Bless her for this song. It’s sad that not many people in the comment section (or in general) know what the hell this song is really about.
Sia está muy por encima de las estrellas para las que suele componer que inexplicablemente acaparan más atención. Posee una enorme sensibilidad para hablar de temas dramáticos tratándolos con un punto de vista optimista . Habrá quien diga que es comercial pero si se profundiza en su carrera, en sus composiciones uno se da cuenta de que sía no ha vendido su alma al diablo. Los temas de sía me llevan acompañando ya unos añitos , en momentos muy difíciles me han servido de desahogo y de reconstituyente. SIA FOREVER
I absolutely agree. Maddie Zeigler is a great dancer so the MV is good. But this version makes me feel even more the desperation built into the song. And the clever way the lyrics are incorporated into the scenery is brilliant.
I think this song is great. Sia is an extremely talented songwriter and singer, and I really admire her uniqueness and her artistic expression. With that being said, I did a cover of Chandelier over on my channel. It would mean a lot if you guys came by and checked it out and let me know how I did! :)
Hey Everyone! Can You Guys Please Go Look At My 5 Recent Uploads Of Sia. I'd Really appreciate It! Make Sure To subscribe /Like And Comment! C: have A Wonderful day.!
Stop pretending like you admire the artist to give yourself an excuse to advertise your own channel. That's pretty inauthentic to be honest and it kinda shows that you use your voice as a propulsion for success instead of messing around with your own instruments and essentially making love to your music. I'm sorry but if you want a good reputation you can't tell people to watch your stuff. Be a little modest. Don't force things into place that don't quite fit. By having your entire channel based on covers, your doing something everyone else has done, and with so much competition someone is going to move on to the next best thing. You have to really strive to put yourself above the rest while still being completely genuine and humble.
Actually im not trying to promote my channel number one. So dont go accusing things. Number 2. Whats wrong with me trying to get sia known more? Theres Nothing Wrong with that. So get your nerdy facts right, then message me.
No nie wiem, dla mnie to wciąż zbyt daleko do płyt Colour the Small One czy Some people have real problems. No ale to już było jakiś czas temu i te czasy nie wrócą. :/
While I usually don't listen to Sia songs (mainly for how she pronounces things. I already have a hard time understanding lyrics to most songs without reading them.) but I can listen to the chorus over and over. It just has so much power and emotion in it that it's almost impossible for me not to sway with it.
Not a girl but a man, I can relate so much with this, thinking when I was living nights like there was no tomorrow, alone in the crowd, losing grip on reality and put me in danger, driving too. Luckily, nothing really bad happened and nearly 15 years passed, I'm heading my 50s but that attitude is always there in me and it is freaking scary yet so attractive.
lawren tinker It happens to me a lot, i usually like songs that have a good beat and nice voice tonality. but i find myself paying attention to old songs lyrics, kinda weird right.
Forever be my life’s theme song. Also marked the very first time I went to London when this song came out. And next week, I’ll be in London again for the 3rd time. Love you, Sia!
What a brilliant songwriter this young woman is. Bravo Sia! My God girl. I have lived this song. Every kid and every adult with a drinking problem who hears those lyrics-especially the part about shame-they’re going to see themselves in the song and know they’re not alone. And that could save a few lives.
A lot of people are asking what's this song about... And I feel like it's about depression and being an alcoholic because she says- 1 2 3 Drink. Then she's talking about not caring and swinging from a chandelier , feeling great for the moment and just when you wake up you feel the shame. Perhaps this may be it, maybe it's not but she wouldn't put the words 1 2 3 Drink for no reason- My Opinion
***** What the fuck is your deal? She just offered up her interpretation of the song and what she thinks it means. Your response makes you sound 12 years old.
***** Ok, you're being really rude. Seriously. Fuck off. Also, you appear to be homophobic and that sucks for you because there are plenty of people who are going to hate you for that.
***** Guess what people have their opinions and so do you. I'd suggest you just respect it instead of messing with people on the internet. You are not pissing people off most of them are just ignoring your shitty ass comment. Unlike me who doesn't have a life what so ever. Have a good day friend.
all these people saying how it sounds like Rihanna, but Rihanna couldnt even sing this song, she doesnt have half of Sia's range. Besides, Rihanna was the one who copied Sia's style when she sang Diamonds.
This will never get old.. 8 years passed and it's still timeless. I miss 2014, when I was a 6 years old child. And this brings back so many memories.. 😭😭
Guys after all this performance and sia's songs with that girl u can say it's miracle and i think it wouldn't be happens again so keep watching that woman she has some Unexpected capabilities even in live performance so watch that it's really help me to choose what i need not to dance like people do and everything i watch it i found out a new meaning that's could help u so peace out I am thankful sia Sorry for my broken English So who will stay watching sia's songs forever and ever 🙌🙆🙌🙆
Her voice cracking slightly during the high pitched parts is amazing in how instead of sounding scratchy it sounds emotionally painful. It's almost like you can feel her crying out when she sings it.
Simply beautiful.
Omg yes. Those high pitch notes are my favorite. It's like you can feel her emotions as you're listening to the song.
This video is far better than the official one. This tells the story of the song; the official video has no relation to it.
i think that's the point.
The fact that she does it twice in the same parts of the song shows the incredible vocal control Sia has
chorus is awesome. Her voice is just amazing and her vocals reach so high, plus a bit of distortion on her voice just makes it perfect.
chorus is Genius and she keeps belting upon the high notes ... it is so Liberating to hear it
Her voice makes me want to drop everything and listen. AMAZING. New fan right here :)
I actually did that at a shopping mall when I heard this first, it was a teacup xD
JUNO theGuitarist
THIS WOULD NEVER GET OLD
are you sure about that
@@Nowsunny Yes
@fvsaee9627 you're so right
Fr, once again this song is my favorite.
Sia never ceases to amaze me with her voice and her bubbly energetic personality. she's beautiful, unique, and confident to be herself. You dont see a lot of singers like that these days
I do not know how to describe how wonderful the effect it causes on me when I hear Sia sing.
Sia is wonderful.
I bet she has one of the most beautiful and impressive voices and maybe even the best female voice currently.

huh?
The basis of the song is not about alcohol and suicide. Swinging from the chandelier is an expression of relief and joy, but it can also be a metaphorical expression of the desire to commit suicide, such as a feeling of frustration as a result of suffering, difficulties, challenges, and worries. The same applies to narcotic medications and alcoholic usages. These are side thoughts and one of the aspects of suffering in the writer’s life.
The song, in general, is about the meaning of life and its repercussions and our purpose, away from the concept of self-absurd entertainment as absolute happiness, attachment to the spiritual side, beneficial contributions, and dealing with worries and suffering to live a happy life, including (regarding Sia’s life) mental illness and depression, and various fears, difficulties, and tragedies.
Chandelier turned 10 last Sunday. What a time to b alive
The true definition of an artist is Sia. She is incredibly talented! A genius songwriter with outstanding vocals! Can she be any more perfect?
Soooooo glad she kept this song for herself. No idea who has the vocals to back this up. Powerful vocals!
The power in Sia's voice in nearly every one of her songs (especially this one) is beyond powerful. When she belts it, goosebumps appear all over my body. She has one of the best voices I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. I hope the rest of the world can see it so she can become as successful as she wants.
TheCrannySmith Agreed
TheCrannySmith "goosebumps appear all over my body" .. Same thing with me and I start swinging as well ... it's like flying in the space without directions
Haha you do realize sia has and still is very popular...that's why if you ever see her live she doesn't show her face because she doesn't wanna be in the spotlight another reason she puts most of the spotlight of the dancers...sia is a huge hit not only vocally but a lot of the songs you hear girl pop stars sing were written by sia lol sia is amazing lol
Titanium is a very powerful song io Sia 💕
TheCrannySmith She's like the female version of Freddie Mercury. They can easily give you goosebumps.
What an incredible voice! There's not many ladies who can even get close to singing this song from start to finish without their breath or voice running out. I'm just saying it takes more than you think to belt this one out properly. She's amazing!
I'm addicted to this song!!
Same
Same me too
Аналогично.
her voice is nice
Nice? Is fucking amazing her voice love it!!
Wow. I've never been more amazed in my life. I'm only 12
lol my sister is 11 ans she is saying omg
and she agrees.
Hambayla Derepentdougall well Iam way more older but its a great song
Bro you got a lame life then....
I'm like 15 and a half. Wayyyy older and stuff.
Alex Nelson Alex !!! l Let him get his Chandelier in his time.. ;))
Holy shit, that song is so powerful, I wish good luck to anyone who'll wanna cover it....Incredible vocals.
Challenge accepted!
Inside the mind of tragic and pointless alcoholism - brilliant musical arrangement and vocals by Sia.
Totally

SIA, please take this comment to HEART!
BELIEVE THAT You have MORE PEOPLE ON YOUR SIDE WHO SEE YOU AS BEAUTIFUL, GIFTED, AND ESPECIALLY TALENTED!
YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL VOICE AND LOOK.
FORGET THE HATERS...........THEY HIDE IN THE SHADOWS AND MAKE NASTY COMMENTS BECAUSE THEY WILL NEVER SOAR LIKE YOU IN LIFE.
KEEP YOUR HEAD UP, GURL.....................AND SING! WE LOVE YOU!
Ikr! I saw her pictures and I think she looks cute!
She may read this comment and take it kindly but her struggle with the public is a lot more than stage fright. Graves is a serious thing and so is depression.
Joshy joshy its a vevo page so she may not get to see it
now if it was on her twitter/facebook/instagram or (what ever she may use) page she would get to see it sometime
and i agree
depression is a killer
i have it and so does a few of my friends and we talk about it all the time and tell each other what happened and stuff like that just to keep each other happy and to keep each others depression down
When I read the haters part, all I thought was, "Batman".
Sia doesnt sound like rihanna, rihanna sounds like Sia :)
Who is older? Sia.
Sia is. Sia writes songs for Rianna
Cierto !
benar!
Agree!
Man she sang her damn heart out....which is awesome!!
The incredible strength and power of the song!!!!
Respect from Russia
She has a great voice and such a powerful vocal capacity! Kudos.
This is good on so many levels!
totally!
Thank you for this song
GUSS dx je vais te faire un dessin et te montrer une photo... Desolé si c'est moche mais j'ai que 9 ans... (raison pour laquelle j'ai arreter beyond minecraft...)
I very like your channel! Merci Guss dx pour toutes tes vidéos et les frissons que tu me donnes avec tes Beyond Minecraft! Bon courage pour la version IRL!
NioXoHD please check out my cover,i think you would like it!)
it has an amazing amount of emotion in it !
GUZZ!!
This is when I met her, this song is what brought me to love her.
This is what made me realize that Pop still had chances of being good.
The incredible beat and melody is covering up the message in this song. Not to mention Sia's beautiful voice. I don't think people realize how sad this song is...
I swear if I ever get to see this woman singing live my life goals will be completed.
Same.
Mr Lmao Hola señor (o señora por alguna razon :v) Lmao Hace mucho que no nos veíamos...desde la impresora del demonio xD
Que impresora?
La impresora diabólica que entre más la ocupas mas se tarda... y que tu dijiste que cantaba una canción de dupster al principio xD
...mmmmm no no me acuerdo.. estoy en todas partes como queres que me acuerde? Pasame el link!
sia is underrated, this deserves to be a hit.
She's slowly getting there. ;)
Agreed
Maggie Baker and they claim it is actually went for rihana..I think sia sung it perfect. .
Sia likes being underrated tho
I love this song. It's a beautiful dope song. Whenever I sing this song, the high head notes in the chorus have helped me when it comes to accessing and mastering my Head voice.

No, its that one can't be a party girl forever like tomorrow is never going to come. Tomorrow comes anyway, no matter how hard you try to stop it.
you totally missing the point

That is one thing I ABSOLUTELY LOVE about her! Such an amazing artist and individual.
thefluxcbf Don't hate! :) We have some mutual friends, and I know her manager too. Also, her growing up story and photo is featured in my book. Search for "Born This Way: Real Stories Of Growing Up Gay", you'll find it. She's a total sweetheart. And Lord, the talent!
Paul V. Thefluxcbf wasn't REALLY hating, it was just a joke lol otherwise, I hate you too and I wish I'd met her and not you ;) hehe #LuckyMan
Paul V. I don't hate you. You are just lucky.
I am currently living near Toronto, so I am always hoping she will perform there. Unfortunately I will be going back to my country in 4 months, so as the time goes I realize that it won't happen. =(
I will watch that video. Maybe it will help me fight my own demons.
Tell her that she is awesome and thank her for the awesome music.
I heard this on the radio a million times! Sia's voice is so powerful and beautiful!
I listend this song when I have to move to different country and get on a airplane.
Thank you, Sia. You're voice makes me cry.
I LOVE how she dedicates the voice to this song - singing with so much passion!
I am so so so glad this song is her OWN!! :D
This girls voice is so different from what ive been hearing from mainstream music, wow this is talent.
This lady has a seriously powerful voice. Love it.
invisible *Sia* 😍😍
Nurul Loves Sia invisiblee ❤✋
😊
Haha
Its maddie. Sia cant do acro LMAO
InviSIAble
Dont know how how many times ive listened to this x
***** hahahaha dude you're awesome
*****
The username is bonus internets points too
My life wouldn't be completed if I didn't know about Sia...
yea!!!!
Everything about this song is a big difference from sia's old songs and vids. She doesnt even sound like this in her earlier songs, even reminded me of rihanna in the beginning. Still, i love this song and cant stop listening to it
Sia Furler actually co-wrote the song " Diamonds for Rihanna :)
Kylie Strong yup but then to me she actually sounded like her at the start of this song :p
There might be a secret message in her song before this
She originally wrote this song planning on giving it to Rihanna or some other pop singer but felt it was too personal so she kept it for herself. She's actually a successful pop song writer.
Hai joanna
*SIA*
bet she has one of the most beautiful and impressive voices and maybe even the best female voice currently. I wish to be able to sing like her, but actually, rarely anyone could match her awesome vocals. This song really touches the heart. She feels too desperate and so she drinks and she feels ashamed from herself and likes nothing. Just her voice is enough to tell. A very beautiful, strong, and impressive voice. A very great song. One of my favorites. I just keep listening to it without ever getting bored.♡
@besma♡ أحبك💗💗
اطلققق.
i do have no complaint about this song since ive been always patiently waiting for her to produce more song for her own.. she have the most exquisite voice ive ever heard.. i love her despite all of other people complaining about how she has changed.. she changed her style on music and substance and despite all that i think this song still great rite? love you SIA!!!!
What an amazing singer/song writer. Love the fact she is so humble and down to earth. So gifted so special sia. Your on of a kind
I found this video more meaningful than the actual music video.
Edit: Sober for 30 months now. This song still hurts, because like Sia and I, there are 3% of us worldwide that struggle with this ugly disease of addiction, that kills your relationships with everyone around you, and ultimatily, yourself. Bless her for this song. It’s sad that not many people in the comment section (or in general) know what the hell this song is really about.
I Totally Can Smell Grammy For Her Next Year !
She Deserve It !
super song :)
Sia está muy por encima de las estrellas para las que suele componer que inexplicablemente acaparan más atención. Posee una enorme sensibilidad para hablar de temas dramáticos tratándolos con un punto de vista optimista . Habrá quien diga que es comercial pero si se profundiza en su carrera, en sus composiciones uno se da cuenta de que sía no ha vendido su alma al diablo. Los temas de sía me llevan acompañando ya unos añitos , en momentos muy difíciles me han servido de desahogo y de reconstituyente. SIA FOREVER
I don't know why but I think this video is much better and gives us real meaning of this song than the MV
I absolutely agree. Maddie Zeigler is a great dancer so the MV is good. But this version makes me feel even more the desperation built into the song. And the clever way the lyrics are incorporated into the scenery is brilliant.
This video shows some of what the song is actually about. The official video is awful and irrelevant.
arjunabetta yassssss
Andrew Smith if is irrelevant and awful why the video have like a 1 billion views?
Sla nhhnh abc
This video is everything. Sia is QUEEN
This song feels so different from Sia's usual music. It's just as great though, I love it.
this lyrics video is good enough to be a music video :) awesome :)
totally agree - when i watched it for the first time, i even thought its the official video, cuz its that great haha
Her voice is perfect and powerful .
I love her voice! Its amazing! She has serious talent.
I think this song is great. Sia is an extremely talented songwriter and singer, and I really admire her uniqueness and her artistic expression. With that being said, I did a cover of Chandelier over on my channel. It would mean a lot if you guys came by and checked it out and let me know how I did! :)
I agree, she is a good singer,maybe a rolemodel to some.
Hey Everyone! Can You Guys Please Go Look At My 5 Recent Uploads Of Sia. I'd Really appreciate It! Make Sure To subscribe /Like And Comment! C: have A Wonderful day.!
Stop pretending like you admire the artist to give yourself an excuse to advertise your own channel. That's pretty inauthentic to be honest and it kinda shows that you use your voice as a propulsion for success instead of messing around with your own instruments and essentially making love to your music. I'm sorry but if you want a good reputation you can't tell people to watch your stuff. Be a little modest. Don't force things into place that don't quite fit. By having your entire channel based on covers, your doing something everyone else has done, and with so much competition someone is going to move on to the next best thing. You have to really strive to put yourself above the rest while still being completely genuine and humble.
Actually im not trying to promote my channel number one. So dont go accusing things. Number 2. Whats wrong with me trying to get sia known more? Theres Nothing Wrong with that. So get your nerdy facts right, then message me.
Ya thats right
The chorus is so powerful and motivating... Love this song so much! ❤️
Who Is Here Listening In 2024 ?
Sia...w swojej naj...odsłonie :)...pięknie!
No nie wiem, dla mnie to wciąż zbyt daleko do płyt Colour the Small One czy Some people have real problems.
No ale to już było jakiś czas temu i te czasy nie wrócą.
:/
Arkanadien
może to chwilowe..., a może kredyty trzeba spłacać i trochę komercji...
ogólnie cokolwiek śpiewa to i tak to jest wyjątkowe
gives me goosebumps!!
Your profile pic gives me the bumps also :)
:P
***** i can see you are living up to your name.
***** Thank you for the compliment.
Hey Lilian tahmasion your that girl that does those videos on RUclips right. Cause I remember subscribing you.
This should already have more than ten million views!!!
Yessss!
Thank you Sia for your wonderful songs. Your voice heals :)
It's suprising that not many people really know what this song is about....it's actually pretty sad
I understand it....
It's obviously about swinging from a chandelier.
XD
I am actually crying from how sad it is :'(
I think this songs about someone hetting very wasted
Sia knows what she sings of, she's been there, she sings from the heart she sings with soul she sings from pain and she has no reason to feel shame.
and this video was well done & I do like it a tad more than the one with the little girl dancing
While I usually don't listen to Sia songs (mainly for how she pronounces things. I already have a hard time understanding lyrics to most songs without reading them.) but I can listen to the chorus over and over. It just has so much power and emotion in it that it's almost impossible for me not to sway with it.
Not a girl but a man, I can relate so much with this, thinking when I was living nights like there was no tomorrow, alone in the crowd, losing grip on reality and put me in danger, driving too. Luckily, nothing really bad happened and nearly 15 years passed, I'm heading my 50s but that attitude is always there in me and it is freaking scary yet so attractive.
Despite the almost meaningless lyrics, I really like this song for the tones. You don't see such nice voice tonality in many songs these days.
Meaningless? You let the point fly RIGHT over you're head
you have to read in between the lines to understand the song properly. you, my friend have not, therefore the lyrics seem meaningless to you.

I'm facepalming at the fact that you can't see the obvious messages behind the lyrics. But at least you're not tone deaf :)
lawren tinker
It happens to me a lot, i usually like songs that have a good beat and nice voice tonality. but i find myself paying attention to old songs lyrics, kinda weird right.
This song is amazing
Lets start a lyric chain, ladies and gentlemen!!
Party Girls, don't get hurt..
Can't feel anything when will I learn?
I'm the one for a good time call
Phone's blown up
***** I feel the love,feel the love
1....2...3.... 1.....2.....3.... Drink
Can't believe this song turns 10 years of existance... I remember hearing this in 2014. now is september 2023. Time goes by...
Definitely the best Lyric Video has ever made...
not to talk how damn Beautiful and Breathtaking the song is
my favourite part of this song is the high note. when the word chandelier is sung
OMG!! Love this song from her! Powerful and emotional voice!! I keep putting this song on repeat lol!!
Really incredibly powerful voise!! Amazing!!!
0l
Forever be my life’s theme song. Also marked the very first time I went to London when this song came out. And next week, I’ll be in London again for the 3rd time. Love you, Sia!
0:07 Hello my name is I PUSH IT DOWN
Hey it's better than my name
@@cookiemocher388 hi
Guess the right name
Or
Guess the wrong name.
IDK. 😂
yea right hahahaha
Sia, you screaming about us all .
Good God, her voice is powerful...
What a brilliant songwriter this young woman is. Bravo Sia! My God girl. I have lived this song. Every kid and every adult with a drinking problem who hears those lyrics-especially the part about shame-they’re going to see themselves in the song and know they’re not alone. And that could save a few lives.
The music may be less substantial than some of the stuff that she did in the past, but it doesn't change the fact that her voice is fucking amazing.
I love Sia !!! Beautiful song and her singer's !
I love you Sia keep going 💞💫
Every time I hear her sing my heart melts. My favorite verse is I'm gonna fly like a bird through he night😍😆😫💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
A lot of people are asking what's this song about... And I feel like it's about depression and being an alcoholic because she says- 1 2 3 Drink. Then she's talking about not caring and swinging from a chandelier , feeling great for the moment and just when you wake up you feel the shame.
Perhaps this may be it, maybe it's not but she wouldn't put the words 1 2 3 Drink for no reason- My Opinion
***** What the fuck is your deal? She just offered up her interpretation of the song and what she thinks it means. Your response makes you sound 12 years old.
***** Ok, you're being really rude. Seriously. Fuck off. Also, you appear to be homophobic and that sucks for you because there are plenty of people who are going to hate you for that.
*****
I thought the same :)
***** Guess what people have their opinions and so do you. I'd suggest you just respect it instead of messing with people on the internet. You are not pissing people off most of them are just ignoring your shitty ass comment. Unlike me who doesn't have a life what so ever. Have a good day friend.
She deserve a grammy !
IM GONNA SWING FROM THE CHANDELIER! So awesome sia I just listened to this like a month ago and im in love with this song
the memories🔥💯
True 😫💞🔥
all these people saying how it sounds like Rihanna, but Rihanna couldnt even sing this song, she doesnt have half of Sia's range. Besides, Rihanna was the one who copied Sia's style when she sang Diamonds.
Sia wrote Diamonds for Rihanna
Alexis greenlike thankyou because some people just want to be mean and say that rhianna copied her song like stfu unless you know your facts.
Mate she didn't steal Sia's style because 'Diamonds' was written by Sia for her.
MisterWhisker iknow
Sia actually wrote Diamonds for Rhianna
One of the best songs 2014.
This will never get old.. 8 years passed and it's still timeless. I miss 2014, when I was a 6 years old child. And this brings back so many memories.. 😭😭
Welcome to the teenager years
@@Igthecreator Ikr 😭😭😭😭🤐🤧🤧🤧🤧
Me too I miss 2014😭😫😫
I was 8 years old
Her voice cracks and high notes are damn awesome👏👏✌
