But I really don't see Madonna singing any of these songs, she has a very different vocal
She couldn't sing some of them, but others she could. "Big Girls Cry" would be perfect for her. Even something like the incredible "Kill and Run"(from the Great Gatsby OST) could have worked for her.

In any case, my point is that together they could probably have written wonderful songs tailored for Madonna's vocals. Having said that, Madonna would probably be too insecure/competitive to actually write with another woman.

So what should the next single be?

My vote goes to "Big Girls Cry".

If they go for one of the promo singles, I agree. Otherwise, I love Burn the Pages and Fire Meet Gasoline.

Can someone please listen to Fire Meet Gasoline please and sing Beyonce's Halo to Sia's chorus? I swear to god, the choruses are virtually identical.

I really hope not. There are far better single choices, plus it's been around for ages on the last Hunger Games OST.

Remember this? I love Sia, but this cover is fairly wretched. It removes all of the song's drama and makes it sound cheap and throwaway. Awful.

Singer/songwriter Sia is aiming for her first No. 1 on next week's Billboard 200 chart with her new album "1000 Forms of Fear." Industry forecasters say the set, which was released on July 8, may sell around 50,000 copies by the end of the tracking week on July 13.

well done to her for making it big as a popstar. however, i'm yet to be convinced this album is as good as it pretends to be.

I love the album, but it really tails off in the second half. It's definitely not perfect by any means.
