Sia is also one of the most outstanding artists for having written numerous musical pieces. One of them is Diamonds, which was performed by Rihanna, Double Rainbow, by Katy Perry or Loved Me Back to Life by Celine Dion.
In this post, I will expose some of the songs that have been written for other vocalists but that were rejected by these, some of which were written together. However, the Elastic Heart interpreter compiled them into the album This is Acting.
Now, can you imagine some of these songs performed by those artists who rejected Sia's proposal? Well, here are some of them:
Chandelier

Originally written for the native singer of the Caribbean island of Barbados, Rihanna, the musical piece Chandelier was rejected by her and turned into a hit for both Sia and the dancer Maddie Ziegler, the girl and now young, who stars in the official video clip.
Alive

It would be hard to believe that Alive, the song with the most breaks of voice interpreted by Sia, was co-written between the Australian artist and the vocalist Adele and that the British one was destined to sing it, but finally she did not accept and the version of Sia was included on his album This is Acting.
Footprints

This time it was Beyonce who did not want to sing it. Footprints were composed by Sia for the North American artist, but after the refusal, the 40-year-old blonde included her in her seventh album released in 2016.
Cheap Thrills

With this song, Rihanna could head the list of singers who reject themes that later reach success when interpreted by other artists. This piece also was sung by Sia and whose choreography was led by Ziegler, was widely viewed on YouTube.
With this album, the Australian composer said before the American television presenter Ellen Degeneres: "It's like when you have a lot of things in the refrigerator and you're going to throw them away, but you're such a good chef that you can make something totally delicious with it."
Hence, Sía becomes one of the few artists who, in addition to writing songs, also has remarkable success as an interpreter.
