Sia live on KCRW Morning Becomes Eclectic,. 25 Oct 2007 

Art on the highest level. She is the greatest contemporary artist in our time....She composed all of these songs, she sang as nobody else, there is deep honesty and high level of concentration behind all of this... So unique in the present, I dont know anybody on this high level now.... Nobody...

Wow, selling albums in coffee shops, they had no idea what was to be 10 years later for her career. I wosh she would do more of this older style though. Pop sells, but her old style touched your soul.

Vintage Sia, bring her back

Undeniably one of the most underrated singers of this era.. one of the most naturally talented singers I have ever heard .. absolutely breathtaking

8:03 "This next tune is called 'Breathe Me'" She says it so nonchalantly... If only she knew that the song has such a huge impact on one's life. I absolutely love every, single, simplicity about the song

I'd say the radio station was lucky to have Sia, not the other way around.

Such mastery yet has the innocence of a child

So many years and I still coming back to all these old videos of Sia singing I'll always be his fan, she's one of a kind

Are really anybody listen to this right now? I am really in love of her. she always takes me to another world

I can't believe that I still have to explain to people who Sia is. On top of that, I am required to let them know that her "POP" songs aren't really the greatest songs she's ever created. Sia has brought tears to my eyes with her many live performances that I am sure no one is aware of existing... Sia is a beautiful quirky gift to humankind handed down to us from some kind of higher power...

Hats off to KCRW for bringing us such intimate performances, also not easy to produce live-to-air, what a gift it would be to listen live on terrestrial radio!

Not only does she have the most beautiful voice she is beautiful herself !

Sia is a beautiful soul with gobs of vocal control

Love the fact she now owns millions as well as having 6 different houses and she just made a movie 😂 she’s the definition of hardworking success

This is my favourite Live/studio performance from her. I think these are all the best version of the songs that are covered. I only wish that soon we'll be found and death by chocolate was also on the list. If i had to pick one video to show off her talent, it would be this.

she can`t sit quietly, like a kid :-D i love her

Pure perfection. It's hard to believe all these cuts were performed live at one time. This is truly a recording fit for coronation. It's as beautiful now as it was that faithful morn in Santa Monica in 2007. I continue to play this tape of the most supreme music to uplift and fulfill my days. God bless you Sia and all your fellow musicians. This should be the standard for all others.

What a beautiful lady, inside and out.

The first time I heard Sia sing was her music coming through a coffee shop sound system and it was one of those times when I was completely floored by a voice. No matter how many times I hear her sing, especially these older songs, the emotion just comes welling up in me.

So glad I found this passionate stuff in 2022.... I'm so glad she made it big.

One of the best perfomances i have ever heard. Maybe the best perfomance from Sia. She really shines in this ❤

I'm furious at myself for not finding this sooner .. what an incredible voice and talent .. she has such an adorable and infectious personality..

The best rendition of ‘Distractions’ of all time! And I saw her perform it live at the Lady Croissant recording!

The very best of SIA - I remember discovering her music back in 2009 with this live and thinking oh my god she is phenomenal why isn't she famous in the USA?

I found her because of Chandelier. Fan of her new stuff. It's different than everything else. Took me about a day to find her older stuff. She then became my 'celebrity crush' Lolz (But really) Seems like such a fuckin cool person, quirky, bubbly, funny, kind. She seems to be the type of person any of us would want to know. Obviously, intelligent and creative. (She just so happens to be gorgeous too, and that doesn't hurt. Lolz) When she sings, though, it's surreal. I get mesmerized, just IN the music. There are so many levels of emotion, vulnerability, experience, depression, triumph, and strength. God damn. Is it possible to hear her sing Breathe Me and not feel moved? Transcendent? For me, yes. Her voice can take me out of my head, reign in the crazy, lead as a light through darkness, give hope to the forgotten, and give me something to lean on when my legs aren't very sturdy. I like a variety of music. (admittedly Pop not holding a prominent spot among my favorites. Not much appeals to me in the genre. (No content) Then, Sia writes songs, sings with an unearthly ability...... And I become a fan, instantly. Stepped away from Rap for about 20 years, been digging back in, hearing content, a message, positivity, TRUTH. Again, I connect. My main genre is metal. (NuMetal kid. It's what I grew up with) Tool will forever be in my top 5. Heart is amazing. (Ann and Nancy are also top 5, if that wasn't obvious) Chris Stapleton. Alice in Chains. (Slipknot, Mudvayne, SRV, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Pantera: to round out a top 10, if anyone gives a shit. Lolz) My point is, She may be a recent find for me, but the way she sings, the voice cracks and 'imperfections' are HER sound, and only give me a deeper appreciation for her talent. Something "raw and real" in her voice, and it beats the shit out of what I thought I knew about everything. I wish we were homies or something. Lolz Very few people in this life are able to captivate, draw upon that depth of emotion, pour in pieces of themselves forged by their journey, 'bare their soul', shape it all with effort and determination, polish it with incredible talent and their love for the craft, only to end up with something profound.... Sia makes it look effortless. She is a walking testament to success after survival, and how we all, though vastly different, are united through music, through love for one another. I'm a forever fan. She is such a fuckin badass. Have a great day people! If possible, try and be good to each other and good to yourselves.

The last song is pure musical artistry. By the whole band.

I found this radio performance the day after I saw herI fell in love with her live performance on David Letterman... It was broken up piece by piece by song, and I loved every minute I spent hypnotized by it. Since she became famous (in the US), I couldn't find it. I'm glad I searched again after almost a decade 💓

Still my favourite performance!

She’s beyond beautiful

I love all the vocal fry and tremolo she adds...sounds so beautiful

I fell in love to this set, my first time hearing Sia. Ten years later that sensation of tripping over the edge, heading towards something incredible is with me every time I hear her voice. Thank you Sia for being so wonderful. Thank you for being the soundtrack to a decade of loving. Ideal in every way. Thank you for uploading it too :)

I wonder about the people watching in the control room. Do they appreciate they are watching a future star?

This is my favorite sia performance and I saw her live prior to the wig. She is amazing and it is unfortunate she has had to hide her true personality since then.

One of my favorite playlists. Sia sings from a place I feel I can relate to. Love this

I'm in love! Damnit man! There is only one Sia!!!

This version of Breath Me sends me to Seventh Heaven! 🥰

I'm so VERY THANKFUL that I could still look this up. I discoveredtgis gem a year before her US debut on Letterman. It was originally all broken up, not complaining

Such a beautiful soul, her lyrics resonate so much. I hope you bless us with more music dear Sia.

This old Sia stuff rocks! Girl can wail!

Loved her since 2004. Glad the world loves her now too

Amazing band and Sia has an incredible voice, and she knows how to use it.

Sia is very amazing and a special person❤️

This is the best live performens ever.

love her sooooooo freaking much 😍

Just absolutely incredible! I'd heard this take of Breathe Me in a separate video. I'm so glad I found the rest of the session. If there was only one artist that I could listen to for the rest of my life, it would be Sia. Her voice touches my soul. I don't know if that was the host or a band member she offered a cuddle to, but I wouldn't have turned that down. Think I needed a couple along the way.

Breathe me....incredible!

Just been sitting here listening just gets better and better . the more sia content I find the more you feel every expression sent out to us and if you been through a lot of shit your going feel this. I know it sounds wired basically wow amazing 😉

Every second of this video is pure magic. Thank you.

Such an amazing beautiful talent

Still listening in 2022

Been listening to Sia as well as Tina Dico....both of Zero 7....crazy talents.

Finest pipes in all the lands

What happened to the Sia I fell in love with? Yes, bring her back girl.

I have been coming back to this ever since the original recording. It was deleted at some point but some hero reuploaded

I love her bouncy style.

I don’t know any other love songs in reverence of academics 💕

Sia this is in 2007 and she is still as good today

Gotta love SIA pure vocals just amazing

Most people don't even know her older stuff!

Tears running from my eyes but tears of love that will keep me from running dry .beautiful 🥰

Still here listening 2022

One of my favorite live performances. Pure

So, basically she had no idea that she was soon going to step into international stardom when the album after this. When she would would go incognito and do all those startling music videos.

I miss old Sia! 🤍✨

That was a good drum break. Love Sia and Beck too.

Sia is really amazing. No singer alive touches her.

AHEAD OF HER TIME SIA IS A GENIUSSSSS

soul. this is soul. i've said this before, geez. "... do you need a duttle...?" "This will blow your mind, Brian!" LOL (intro to 'buttons')

I wish she would sing some of this again, so great.

This is amazing

I just love Sia.... so talented

I am still in loved with SIA

2024, I still revisit this video

I wish the musicians that played were credited, the whole performance was sensational :)

imho, this performance should get a cd release.

I am not afraid. I love you Sia!

Forever my favorite performance ❤️

It's funny how this host says she's the lucky one to be invited to come back after her last visit... I guess he doesn't have a crystal ball to look into the future. *This Is SIA*

She’s beautiful inside and out!!! ❤️❤️❤️ when the gates of heaven open, it’s her voice you’ll hear! ❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️

Amazing voice..And band

This is the best of Sia! You are one the best things that ever was in creating music! Love you and your insane humility when you let your voice unleash!

Thank you Sia

@Soltz slow, thank you for putting all this together. I remember watching the radio bits that were on RU-vid, & piece by piece and falling in love with SIA and the instrumentals in the background.... a few weeks later I saw her on David Letterman in 2008. Ever since then, she's had me

This is my favorite interview with soa ever ❤

Strokes of everything from Karen Carpenter and Pink Floyd to Dolly Parton and Billy Joel.. easily one of the best voices in the history of modern popular music - amazing ❤ *Edit:* OHHH NO SHOT! She was the vocalist on those Zero 7 tracks?! I KNEW I recognised that tone! This chick was the sound of my late teens and I didn't even know 😂

Sia the best

How about a hand for that band?

The best artist from the last time

Fuck me I just fell in love that girl can sing Jesus x

I'm in love with Sia

She is amazing

Absoluetly amazing. No words like at all

There's Sia Furler then there's everyone else

Sia was live af wasn’t it?! 😮 🤩 It was insane, its so good 😊 ❤

Beautiful

Que hermoso es escucharla, su voz cala bien hondo en mi corazón. Te amo Sia❤

She is so chill

Brilliant

Long live Sia!!!

Best session ever! ❤️🎈🤘🏻
