About this album

Sound: "A vibrant tapestry of uplifting electropop that blends heartfelt lyrics with spirited melodies."

Where they were

When Sia released 'Music' in February 2021, she was already an established artist, having gained widespread recognition with her previous album, 'This Is Acting' (2016). Following a series of commercial successes and songwriting accolades, this project marked her first foray into film soundtracks, serving as both a companion to the movie and a reflection of her artistic evolution as a pop icon.

Why it matters

The album features the hit single 'Together', which became an anthem for resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic and reached significant chart positions worldwide. Despite mixed reviews, its commercial performance highlighted Sia's ability to connect with audiences through themes of hope and connection, solidifying her status within the contemporary pop landscape.
