Elton John
This is incredibly the 33rd studio album from the popular performer and his irst since 2006
The Captain & the Kid to feature the Elton John Band.
Co-produced by Elton and T-Bone Burnett and made with help from lyricist Bernie Taupin,
it is infectious and upbeat and features lead single Looking Up as well as the ballad Blue
Wonderful, which sounds rather like a Disney theme tune.
The album is said to have taken less than a month to complete but it is as polished as
anything else Elton has produced.

Sia
She is the artist who sometimes sings with her face covered or stands
with her back to her audience. But it’s not only her curious ways that
have helped launched the Australian singer-songwriter onto the popular
music scene – her voice is pretty amazing too.
Sia broke into the mainstream in 2014 with her sixth studio album, 1000
Forms of Fear, preceded by the top 10 single Chandelier.
This album which features Alive, a song originally written for Adele’s 25
album, is likely to bring similar satisfaction to her growing legion of fans.
