Sia, “Eye of the Needle”
Here’s a new one from Sia, whose album 1000 Forms of Fear drops in about a month and should rightfully become the on-repeat summer soundtrack for dramatic, interpretive-dancing elementary school girls all over the world (I include myself in this category). There’s something about this melody’s ambiguous ballast that reminds me of “Elastic Heart,” and do I ever love the way Sia’s voice sometimes feels like water climbing grooves upward, unpredictable and improbable but totally sure.
