So, for the 61st edition of Music Lifts 🎶 🏋 (2023), we highlight 🎵 “Titanium” as performed by 🎙 David Guetta and 🎙 Sia.[/otw_shortcode_dropcap]
“You shoot me down, but I won’t fall.” Why, won’t you fall, 🎙 Sia? Three words: “I am titanium.” Now that’s a flex 💪 right there! Furthermore, the lyrics Sia sings are encouraging, inspiring, and uplifting. 🏆 Grammy-winning French DJ/producer 🎙 David Guetta and Sia collaborated on 🎵 “Titanium”, a surefire bop from Guetta’s 2011 album, 💿 Nothing but the Beat. This empowered, feel-good song was penned by Guetta and Sia alongside 🎼 ✍ AFROJACK and Giorgio Tuinfort. Guetta produces alongside AFROJACK and Tuinfort, creating an energetic, picturesque backdrop. As for Sia, she does her thing on this multiplatinum, no. 7 hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
For Sia, the adversity is incredibly loud! Even so, “I’m criticized, but all your bullets ricochet / You shoot me down, but I get up.” Now that some true fortitude! Similarly, in the second verse, she sings, “Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones / Talking loud, not saying much.” Despite everything, in the pre-chorus, she admits, “Nothing to lose /… Ricochet, you take your aim / Fire away, fire away.” Of course, the result is that Sia is ATOMIC NUMBER 22… TITANIUM, baby 💪! The lift 🏋️ of the lyrics, production, and Sia’s distinct, powerful vocals is legit on 🎵 “Titanium”.
