In 2000, Sia signed to Sony Music's sub-label Dance Pool and released her second studio album, Healing Is Difficult, the following year. Displeased with the promotion of the record, she signed to Go! Beat and released her third studio album, Colour the Small One, in 2004. The project struggled to connect with a mainstream audience, and so Sia relocated to New York City in 2005 and began touring across the United States. She released her fourth and fifth studio releases, Some People Have Real Problems and We Are Born, in 2008 and 2010, respectively. She then took a hiatus from performing, during which she focused on songwriting for other artists. Her catalogue includes the successful collaborations "Titanium" (with David Guetta), "Diamonds" (with Rihanna) and "Wild Ones" (with Flo Rida).
In 2014, Sia released her sixth studio album 1000 Forms of Fear, which debuted at No 1 in the U.S. Billboard 200 and generated the top-ten breakthrough single "Chandelier" and a trilogy of music videos starring child dancer Maddie Ziegler. In 2016, she released her seventh studio album This Is Acting, which spawned her first Hot 100 number one single, "Cheap Thrills". The same year, Sia gave her Nostalgic for the Present Tour, which incorporated performance art elements. Sia has received an array of accolades, including ARIA Awards and an MTV Video Music Award.

The lyrics of Sia’s song “1+1” are all about love and celebration. The song essentially conveys the message that love is an exciting adventure and everything feels like magic when being with the loved one. The repetition of “one plus one” throughout the chorus signifies that together the two individuals can create their own world and make each other feel special. Taking someone to the shore or all around the world, holding them tight, and letting the music free one's soul is all about celebrating the present and cherishing each other’s company. The line “We live for the beat” suggests that together they can create their own rhythm, beat or pace, and nothing else matters. The song is a reminder to be in the moment and appreciate what one has in their life including love and joy.

Si à deux on est plus fort
One plus one
Et sinos yeux brillent encore

Je crois bien que j'veux ta voix
