    So you’re probably sitting here completely flabbergasted, thinking, “WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD REJECT A SIA SONG?!” Unfortunately, you heard that correctly, but fortunately for us, Sia has put together an entire album of rejected songs she wrote for other artists. Sia’s new album “This Is Acting” is incredible, it is filled with powerful ballads andd brilliants hits that were rejected but some of Hollywoods biggest stars which is crazy so we’re just glad the songs are getting a second chance. We are about to break down the songs and the artist that rejected them right here on Listed.

    • @Thaslughy
      @Thaslughy 4 роки тому +2

      Juliette Veronica well, if you’d know in advance that something will be a hit, sure you won’t turn it down. We don’t know how many songs of hers got turned down and didn’t make it anywhere. That amount could be far greater than the actual songs discussed. Artist receive a song and need to ‘fit’ it on their album, so if your song is the third power ballad received, chances are high it will get turned down to make room for other songs.

    Keep in mind that "rejecting" doesn't always mean that they think the song is bad. Sia's songs usually boast a huge vocal range, while at the same time requiring great power; and some artists just can't pull that off well enough.

      Just let go it's not a matter of being kind- she's a song writer so that's her thing. just so happens that she's a fantastic singer in her own right too. many talented song writers can't sing the way the singers they sell their songs to can...and many talented singers can't write their own songs.

      Witch Twist When she does RnB and soul (when she played Etta James on Cadillac records for example), I agree with you. Beyonce's latest album wasn't really good in my opinion. I can't help but feel like she's not using her god given talent to her full potential. But that doesn't mean I think any less of her. She will always be the queen in my book. I just can't picture her singing any of Sia's songs because her voice is more clear and soothing in a way while Sia's is the complete opposite. I hope you understand. ☺

      TheEmann 1096 You're right Rihanna is very talented so people should not under estimate her

    So basically we learned Rihanna can’t write her own songs 🤷🏼‍♂️

      Rihanna has a very similar voice to sia. I think that's why sia like selling songs to her.

      She's a bitch & is so high end so I wouldn't have expected her to take the song. But sis has a since of humor

      Tbh tho without rihanna not needing songwriters, it wouldn't have been able to make sia to pounce off on her own. Im not sayin she wasnt famous, but her music before was not as popular, once she started writing for big names it increased her interest.
      Songwriters imo are needed to, it gives them a chance to reach out and express their songs without having to have all the fame.

      Harrold DJANI / Sia also likes selling her songs to Rihanna because Rihanna is one of the few big name singers who doesn’t write her own songs.
