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.

@OG1TruLuv
Her voice is so unique!🎄👍
@tonyjax8454
Check out Paloma Faith, she is the UK version of Sia. They sound pretty much identical
@tlwest21
She sounds IDENTICAL to Rihanna lmao in fact I thought it was her🤷
@richardklamik709
Kind of neat. At first I thought It was Lesley Gore singing. I have only heard it twice this Christmas season.
@newjerseybt
@Richard Klamik You heard of the late Leslie Gore?...not related to Al Gore...sorry, couldn't help it.
@santiago_a_hacker274
Bruh why are you so true
@chiprichardson5973
I don’t listen to a lot of Christmas music. Last year I heard this song on the radio at work but it was faint and I couldn’t hear the words…but as a musician the chorus melody has rung through my head over the course of the last year. I love it. Finally I walked into a quiet store yesterday and this song was on and I was able to Google “candy cane lane”. Phew…full circle. Part of me is complete now.
@kingstonstallings3938
This is literally what happened me over the course of this last week...wow 😅
@juanwick523
Today, two days before Christmas, I was at the mall with my son and in the department store this song was playing. It was so catchy and I looked up the lyrics and found the singer. Now I've probably listened to it half a dozen times! Can't believe I'd never heard it before.
@rileyjojensen3234
I know her voice is just so unique!!!!
