Sia is different in that many simply take the average and capitalise on it, returning with no more than a polished average turd.

Ms. Furler is actually unique and extremely talented, thus her experience, while following the same path as others, is for very different reasons.

We will see more of her, and others who will follow/copy her (emerging from their respective doughnuts to return victoriously as clones), but few will ever have the creativity, imagery, and immence vocal control of the original, while maybe one or two will be inspired/talented enough to make their own mark.

I then downloaded that song and eventually downloaded two albums.

The truth is that if Sia had stayed in Australia and become a success here – she wouldn’t be enjoying the world recognition she thoroughly deserves.

Who cares where she made it – the point is she has written one of the most beautiful and moving songs ever.

Quite frankly, her albums are fabuloso.

Anyone who can write songs like Buttons, Breathe Me and Blow Away are outstanding.

Can’t wait to hear the outcome of the Christine Aguilera collaboration.

It things like this that make me ashamed to be Aussie sometimes. Everyone is too superficial and too caught up in being sheep these days, instead of making up their own mind on what they like and listening to something of substance. Something new and which doesnt follow the same tired formulas that the “Strong Australian Music Industry” absolutely adores.

Before her tour Australian’s constantly asked why she hasnt been home. She quite rightly says its because of costs and the fact they arent sure what audiences she will get here. In the back of her mind she must just wonder what they hell is wrong with everyone, and where they all were 10 years ago.

Lets face it, Australians have no clue. Special acts worthy of recognition always have to go overseas to get anywhere, because everyone here is too stupid to see the forrest for the trees. Sia deserves everything good that comes to her, shes come from nothing, put in the work and made it on her own. But as usual, here comes the Aussie bandwagon claiming she’s done it for the country and its all due to us and our culture. What a load of crap.

I wish Sia nothing but the very best, she is one of the most powerful, incredible, honest talents to ever grace a stage during my generation. Lets hope Australians wake up one day and celebrate her for what she is.

it was great makes me cry but, thats good
