Sia released new album 1000 Forms Of Fear this week, and to celebrate, she revealed Dev Hynes' remix of the album's lead single 'Chandelier'. Listen to it below.
The remix sees Hynes adding his own gentle falsetto and rapping over Sia's powerful vocals, which have had a significant amount of bathroom echo added to them. There's also a little hint of the American Beauty soundtrack at 1.50.

Sia recently revealed that the original song, which was released in March and reached No.17 in the US and No.6 in the UK, was written and recorded in under an hour.
"I wrote the song because there's so many party-girl anthems in pop, and I thought it'd be interesting to do a different take on that," she told US website NPR, adding, "For some reason... I didn't want to give it away. I mean, 'Chandelier' took like four minutes to write the chords, then like 12-15 minutes to write the lyrics. Probably 10 or 15 minutes to cut the vocals."
Sia's sixth album, 1000 Forms Of Fear, was released on 4 July.
