Bring it to me in this café

At the moment, I'm in a coffee shop in good ol' downtown Vancouver, where extreme dance music that was released 5 years ago is playing. Hate to say it, but I'm not a fan at all. I'm trying to drown out their music with this song by Sia, "Bring it to me". I don't know why I haven't heard more good things about this Australian singer. Most people I've talked to say she's pretty mediocre but from what I've heard so far, it sounds like she's a talented and unique singer.

Last year, I was obsessed with her song "Buttons". The music video was a little weird but there were some pretty good remixes of that song. Unfortunately, I don't have a remix of "Bring it to me" available but here is the original, which should be played in a coffee shop, unlike this outdated dance music.

You got me pushing imaginary buttons

In the beginning of last year, I was slurping on a caramel macchiato at the good ol' local Starbucks where I noticed a CD that had the image of a blonde girl with colourful marks all over her face. I was mostly interested in the artist, Sia, because of her unique album art. I only got to check out one of her songs, which was "I Go To Sleep". I soon forgot about her for some reason. Then, out of the blue, she surfaced again. But this was more so CSS re-surfacing and remixing her song "Buttons".
No offense to the original song but I think the CSS remix is structured a lot better. It progresses nicely and of course, there's a nice dance beat to groove to.

Recently, Sia has released the third single, "Soon She'll be Found", off her latest album, Some People Have Real Problems; this album also contains "Buttons" and "I Go to Sleep"
