Info for Reasonable Woman

Nach 8 Jahren erscheint endlich das erste reguläre Soloalbum der australischen Pop-Ikone. Das Album enthält 15 Tracks mit diverse Gastauftritten u.a. von Kylie Minogue, Chaka Khan (die ebenso wie Sia im November in die Rock & Roll Hall of Fame aufgenommen wurde), Paris Hilton, Tierra Whack, Labrinth, und Kaliii. Neben den eben genannten Gastsänger:innen war eine Vielzahl herausragender Kreativpartner:innen, Producer:innen, Co-Songwriter:innen und Tontechniker:innen an der Entstehung beteiligt, darunter Jesse Shatkin, Greg Kurstin, Benny Blanco, Jim-E Stack, Rosalía, bülow, Mark „Spike“ Stent und viele mehr – ein absolutes Who’s who der Pop-Welt.

Das Album ist so randvoll mit Pop-Perfektion, dass es fast überwältigend ist, wie mühelos es ihr gelingt, solche Songs zu schreiben, die man sofort ins Herz schließt. Die Sammlung ist alles, was Sia am besten kann, und das klangliche Äquivalent einer Vielzahl von Dingen: eine ermutigende Umarmung, Geheimnisse, die man sich spät in der Nacht erzählt, der Besuch der besten Party der Welt, die Verletzlichkeit, wenn man jemandem seine Liebe erklärt, die unerschütterliche Entschlossenheit, weiterzumachen, auch wenn die Liebe nicht erwidert wird; die Unordnung des Menschseins; die Überschwänglichkeit des Menschseins. Im Grunde ist es das Leben - es passiert uns, es passiert für uns; die Songs auf Reasonable Woman spiegeln uns mit jedem Refrain wieder, dass wir lebendig sind.

Sia

Sia Furler
Singer and songwriter Sia Furler has long been known as a hitmaker for the likes of Rihanna and Beyoncé. Although raised in Australia, Furler rose to fame after moving to the U.K., where she was a member of several groups - including the electronica duo Zero 7 – after releasing her first single, "Taken for Granted," in early 2000. Working alongside bassist Sam Dixon over the following years, she boosted her songwriting cred by writing several songs for Christina Aguilera, who put the songs on her 2010 release, Bionic. Sia also continued writing songs for herself, and We Are Born marked her most upbeat album to date. It also went on to become very successful, charting around the world and going to number two in Australia. The next few years she spent out of the spotlight, continuing her parallel career as a backroom songwriter for the likes of Britney Spears, Beyoncé, Celine Dion, and Rihanna, for whom she wrote the worldwide number one smash hit Diamonds. In 2013, she started on a new album, working once again with producer Greg Kurstin.

The album, entitled 1000 Forms of Fear, arrived in July 2014. It promptly hit number one in several countries, including the U.S. and Australia. Furler and Kurstin also reworked existing music and wrote three new songs for the 2014 adaptation of the Broadway musical Annie. One of their new compositions, Opportunity, was nominated at the 72nd Golden Globe Awards for Best Original Song. At the 77th Annual Grammy Awards, Chandelier scored nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Solo Performance, and Best Music Video. Empowered by the acclaim 1000 Forms of Fear earned, Sia began work on its follow-up in early 2015. Later that year, the singles Alive - which Furler co-wrote with Adele - and Bird Set Free heralded the January 2016 release of This Is Acting, a pop-oriented set of songs. In July, Cheap Thrills - the second official single that was originally intended for Rihanna - became Sia's first Billboard 100 chart-topper.

This album contains no booklet.
