The One and Only Magical Sia

Just got to see this fantastically quirky woman in concert this past weekend. Absolutely and totally in love, I am...she covered all the microphones and sound system in adorable crocheted blankets, while the stage was covered in rainbow colors and other arts-and-craftsy materials.

At the end of the concert, Sia returned for an encore wearing bright pink wings which spun and blew soapy bubbles at the audience. I was only 10 feet away from her and she gave many opportunities for heckling (in a sweet way). During the bubble period, I yelled "Playground!" as a request for said song. "Oh, you're nice. But no, sorry," she smiled in her charming Australian accent.

**Sigh!!** Enjoy this crazy colorful video from a song on her new album, to be released within the month.

  1. Hm I loved the first 60 seconds but then got tired of it... ADD? or too much tinfoil? or too spindly legs? would I just rather see it performed by my favorite Playologist? YES, that's it. Sorry I was being whiny about you not poking me and only belatedly saw you have been busy blogging!

  2. Whahaha Bonnie I adore your comments. Thanks so much for following. Admittedly, I've never actually even watched the whole video myself, & I'm supposed to be a devoted fan...

    I would love to perform this video--in collaboration with the Consortium! Especially as a playologist. Don't worry about whining! Poking = important!!

    Really I *should* have been more busy blogging...I didn't have any posts for nearly 1 month, though I have several drafts saved!
