Sia’s newest video, “Elastic Heart,” was released this morning, and it’s every bit as fascinating as her video for “Chandelier” which I discussed in my post, “Beauty in a Hopeless Place.”
Young dancer Maddie Ziegler is once again playing proxy for Sia, with the interesting addition of a very muscular Shia LaBeouf. The two, dressed in grubby nude-colored leotards, throw themselves around a giant birdcage. First they fight, then he seems intent on taming her, then she seems to tame him, and on and on. What does it mean? No clue. But it sure is engaging to watch!

Have to say I loved the song instantly but the video may take some time to grow on me.

Understood. I’m sure it’s not for everyone.

Um, if I could NOT get myself stoned for being completely entranced by that AND get past the Castaway facial hair on Shia then I’d totally say that was kinda/sorta sexy… Even if he is horsing around with a tiny Lolita.

Hahahaha! I should have added “to DEATH!” after “stoned”.
I remember asking my dad while driving on the BQE what Dylan meant by the lyrics to this song… Pretty sure his answer would have saved him from a medieval stoning… 😉

I knew what you meant. Just making a joke.
