THIS IS LEGENDARYYYY
SIA IS THE ONLY ONE WHO HASN'T CHANGED AT ALL AND SHE STILLS WRITES THE HELL OF SONGS

@malafama5963

i think you didn't understand the song at all. in fact in the description SIA says "The only thing that remains constant is change." . So, what you say about Sia hasn't changed at all is not accurate
