We Are Born, the fifth album from Australian singer-songwriter Sia, came out in June 2010, and it's the most upbeat thing she'd made yet, a burst of color. Sia wrote the words, Greg Kurstin produced, and the Strokes' guitarist Nick Valensi dropped in. She credited the lift in spirits partly to her relationship with JD Samson and partly to the Cyndi Lauper and Madonna records she grew up on.
You can hear both: this is bouncy, bright synth-pop with new wave bones and R&B curves, all big hooks and that cracked, soaring voice. "You've Changed", "Clap Your Hands" and "Bring Night" carried it as singles. Back home it debuted at number 2, her first top 10 album in Australia, and at the 2010 ARIA Awards it won Best Pop Release and Best Independent Release.
