Sia arrives with her latest album, This Is Acting. Made up of 12 tracks, the project features a collection of songs written by Sia that were originally meant for the likes of Adele, Beyoncé, Rihanna, and more. Leading up to its release, Sia shared a string of cuts from the album including standout single "Alive," which was originally written with and for Adele, and the Kanye West collaborative track, "Reaper."

"I’m calling it This Is Acting because they are songs I was writing for other people, so I didn’t go in thinking ‘this is something I would say,’” she previously told NME. “It’s more like play-acting. It’s fun.” Listening to the album, it's almost too easy to guess which artist each song was originally meant for. Stream the album in its entirety below and pick it up on iTunes.
