Feb 25, 2021Since it's inextricably linked to the eponymous movie -- which generated plenty of controversy and public outcry for its portrayal of a non-verbal autistic woman by Sia's longtime public stand-in, neurotypical dancer Maddie Ziegler -- MUSIC might suffer from that burden of connection, which is a pity because it's actually quite good.

Feb 16, 2021Sia's previous triumphs have set a high standard, one that Music doesn't meet. Her "awesome" intentions aside, the album's messages of affirmation and encouragement may be well-meaning, but ultimately fall short while underlining Music's broader, damaging issues.

Feb 17, 2021The highlights aren’t enough to make this album feel as vital as top-notch Sia efforts – namely, 2014’s ‘1000 Forms Of Fear’ or 2016’s ‘This Is Acting’. For the most part, these are reasonably catchy pop songs that become forgettable after their last chorus.

Feb 16, 2021What Music lacks is a great hit to pull it all into focus.

Feb 16, 2021Taken as part of Sia’s own unfolding character arc, songs like Courage to Change have their moments, but it’s hard to dispel the discomfort surrounding the entire project.

Feb 22, 2021Amazing production, Sia's vocals are getting better and better. Sometimes it may sounds quite emotionless, but I think it's all her choice.

Mar 18, 2021Muy buen álbum, nos muestra otro lado de la música e ideas de Sia, algo muy experimental para ser la primera vez, pero excelente trabajo
