      Sia has a lot, and I mean a lot, of such great compositions. What she is now is very mediatic, which is not to say it isn't good, but it sort of obscures her older work. Check out albums Some People Have REAL Problems and Colour the Small One.

I think listening to songs like this give air to the emotions inside us that need it. I'm sorry that everything that has happened to you did. It's unfair.

It's very easy to fall to sadness that is still consumes me rather than try to rebuild some type of happiness. This version of Breath Me is incredibly powerful. It pretty much sums up human emotion, although each of us being different how we manage our emotions we can get through hard times.

      Perhaps she does, and its not about that, but aboit expression and being understood.

    Help, I have done it again
    I have been here many times before
    Hurt myself again today
    And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame
    [Chorus]
    Be my friend
    Hold me
    Wrap me up
    Unfold me
    I am small
    And needy
    Warm me up
    And breathe me
    [Verse 2]
    Ouch, I have lost myself
    Again
    Lost myself, and I
    Am nowhere to be found
    Yeah, I think that I
    Might break
    Lost myself again
    And I feel unsafe
    Be my friend
    Hold me
    Wrap me up

    I am small
    And needy
    Warm me up

      I just found this version. Im not a big Sia fan I gotta say but I do recognize her as an incredible artist. And Im familiar with the fact that she has written alot of hit songs for many of the biggest artist. Now.. I dig Elastic Heart and maybe a couple more but one day I found this song and was blown away. Not only her delivery but the lyrics are a real gut punch. Especially for someone whos gone in the head. I actually first heard it at the end of a Luther episode. Then I found a live performance of it that u gotta see if u like this one. She has on a pink sweater on that hangs to her knees. Anyway if u like this one I bet u will LOVE that one. Its unbelievable. Everything about it. One side note, the drummer gives her a beautiful very nuanced back up on the vocals which was just perfect. Enjoy friend

    I hope you feel better too and know that you don’t have to give up. I love you and want you to love yourself. You’re never alone.

      Tears literally stream down my face every time I come back and watch this performance. So much emotion. That wail is real. And something you can truly only understand if you've been that close to suicide. And all the frenetic energy in the music alongside it is just perfectly done. I'll bet all the musicians there can't help but get swept up and lost in it. Taking part in something like that must be a transcendental experience. One hell of a ride going there and then coming back down to Earth afterwards.

    Sia fantastique! Cello formidable!! Soul music, the scream from 4:41 . One can not produce that if one does not have felt sadness.
