Sia Kate Isobelle Furler, to use the name her musician
parents gave her, already has a staggering track record. If
her name itself-pronounced 'See-ah' isn't familiar to
millions, her voice undoubtedly is.
In 2000, the Adelaide born singer scored a bolt from the
blue Top 10 hit with her debut single, Taken For Granted.
Pairing her unique Australian drawl with the strident
strings from Prokofiev's 'Romeo & Juliet', the track was
championed by Trevor Nelson and had Sia performing live on
Jo Whiley's Radio 1 show. Her debut album, 'Healing Is
Difficult', arrived to similar cries of ´the next big R&B
thing'. Then, to cap it all, she added her jazzy slurs to
two tracks on Zero 7's Simple Things album and became the
unmistakable voice of the year's coolest down-tempo

Review about Sia
Well.. | Reviewer: Jacqui
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
... if you don't cry, it means your heart is made of stone?? | Reviewer: Bronte | 8/20/2008
No. It means you're apathetic torwards it. Maybe you don't want to be.. but.. well it happens to me sometimes. And I guess it happens to most people at one point or another. You want to cry, but you just can't.
anyway,
"Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame"
in my perspective this part is about someone who self-harms or does drugs or controlled substances, and even though they blame themself for their lack of control it is probably something greater. Maybe an addiction, maybe something else.
"Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me"
In her time of despair, her greatest desire is to be near a friend and be taken care of and saved in a way from her self inflicted damage and weakness. And it may just be a general plea for help to anyone who is listening to save her, and not necessarily someone who is already her friend. She seems to have a lack of friends who care.
"Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
Lost myself again and I feel unsafe"
She loses control yet again, and in doing so, loses sight of what she wants. Her belief, her true emotion, what the truth is about her actions, and possibly what she needs. She feels as if she can't find themself, and is out of touch. That she is no longer herself. And she feel that she's on the verge of breaking down, or losing sanity, and/or even hurting herself. She feels with her internal lack of stability further shaken by possibly reflecting on the past, the impulse or desire to hurt herself, or even thoughts circling her head that lead torwards it may gain control. What she may see as an evil side, or seeing herself as a whole an evil person. But she still blames herself for something that is clearly beyond her control(probably due to depression and desire to escape through short-term fixes like self medication,cutting, etc.)...
*chorus*
She's hurting internally and externally.So then she cries out for a friend to be there when she needs to have one there for her the most, yet again.
This is my opinion; it's from the perspective of someone who is Bipolar and has experienced these exact thoughts and feelings, leading to suicide attempts, self-harm, and controlled substances. I too have cried out for a friend at a time when I felt I had no one, in hopes their love could save me from myself. I too depend on my friends to lift me up in times where I am so low I just want to cry/crawl in a hole and finish the job. So yeah, this song has deep meaning to me too :D

------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
I found the song on a Post Secret video.
It's like she is singing my exact thoughts that I have at my lowest moments.
Wow, just wow.
There is no way I can describe it but I swear, I swear it is like she was in my head when I was overdosing at 1am because of my hospital addiction, when I was backed against my bedroom door screaming, when I was in a psychiatric ward with a torn can of coke at my wrist, when I watched my dad apparently dying on the kitchen floor because of what I had done, when I sat on the window ledge of a medical ward crying and wanting to jump, every single time I took a blade to myself, EVERY time I fucked up.
It's like she was there.
It's like she was me.
& I love it.
Ouch, I have lost myself again.
Lost myself & I am nowhere to be found.
& I need someone to be the chorus, right now.
What I heard | Reviewer: Linda
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
I was told that every word in this song came from Sia's sister's suicide note. Could't find any reference to this on any site I checked, but the iea does give new meaning to the haunting quality of the song IMO.
numb | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Numb performed by Sia
I have always thought of this as a suffering break up song.
When I broke up with a man I loved, it was because I felt I loved him more than he loved me back. "the pain will not kill you"
"It has to end
Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you "
I feel this speaks about being so caught up in a relationship, trying hard to make him feel the way I feel, trying to get attention from him.
but everyone interpret different things, and thats a good thing :)
I agree that this also could be a very good addict song.
Six Feet Under | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
I first heard this song as the last song ever in the last episode of Six Feet Under (You have to watch the TV show, it's incredible) And it was so hauntly beautiful and sad,it fit SO PERFECTLY with the last episode, as Claire drives away into the road of her new life, her future, I cried so hard . . . for her uncertain future, for myself, for everyone that is sad, and lost and has hurt them self before with no one else to blame but themselves.
... if you don't cry, it means your heart is made of stone?? | Reviewer: Bronte
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
We all feel things differently. Just because someone doesn't cry when you do, or laugh when you do, or feel whatever you happen to feel at any given moment, that doesn't mean their heart is made of stone!
Yes, this is an awesome song, all about pain and vulnerability, and each of us gets something different out of it.
But please don't discount someone else's feelings just because they don't mirror your own.
God bless.

truthfulness | Reviewer: thinker
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
i found this song on a profile on a bebo of a girl whos mum had died. it quoted i miss you so much mummy forever and always. currently my mum is ill and this song is kind of on repeat. but throughout the bad times lets just say this song is spectacular, lyrically and physically beautiful. with everytime you listen you imagine your life to this soundtrack, i adore this song it has never helped me or pointed me in the right direction. however it is a song that which forever plays in my mind wether i feel sad, humored or in need of a song that uplifts me.
Beautiful | Reviewer: Amy
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
This song is so beautiful to listen to, as well as a comfort in difficult times. It offers such warm vocals and soothing string accompaniment, it really has helped me walk through my troubles, and it is my inspiration to become the musician I always wanted to be, just like Sia.
Not an addict but... | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Numb performed by Sia
I'm the type that could become one. I'm looking for the numb. I'm living in my head as she sings about. This song speaks to me, it's about me, but it doesn't help me. It's told me what I already know. My voice needs to be numbed.
amazing. | Reviewer: r.m.
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia

If you wanna listen to the best cover so far of this song (imho it tops the original) here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=br5y7R4IiEM
Check it out, and if you don't cry, it means your heart is made of stone. Btw, the girl singing (anahy) is french and is a contestant in French Idol '08. She's only 17!!!!
Amazing. | Reviewer: Stevie
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
This is a wonderful song. The first time I heard it I just sat on my own in my room and cried.
It's just so... real? Is that the word? Oh I don't know. "Effing good" doesn't seem to quite do it justice re: sensitivity and all that!
amazing. | Reviewer: cecilia
------ About the song Breathe Me performed by Sia
I am actually serious when I say this.
This song changed my perspective of life.
and I know, it's pretty big to say something like that, but it is true.
The music in this, unfolds different these types of emotions.
the mix of this classical violins and the graceful piano, shows you in you're mind, a different light.
not a religious light, but a spritual light.
this has nothing to do with religion at all.
but more of a, there is something amazing out there and we should search for it before our time is up.
I have no idea what these words will mean to anyone, whether or not anyone will listen to my blabering on, but if either you go on her myspace or download this song.
I am sure you will feel something for this wonderful, meaningful music.

Wow! The lyrics are full of meaning and sadness. A good kind of sadness. I've played this song like 100x. I can't get tired of it. The instruments in this song are played wonderfully. This song touches my heart & it makes me feel sad, yet happy to feel sad.
