A single from ’s great new holiday album Everyday Is Christmas, is one big relatable mood. On the midtempo, ’60s-inspired track, the Australian artist laser-focuses her mastery of pop hooks to craft a yearning tribute to a lover with coal for eyes and a carrot for a nose. Describing herself as Mrs. Snow, she tenderly confesses love for her frosty paramour, and casts the pair as Icarus-like fugitives from the sun’s melty heat. “A puddle of water can't hold me close,” she sings. If you’ve ever dated someone with a heart of ice and a penchant for ghosting, this may seem like a familiar metaphor.
Amidst its sleigh bells and vocal layering, Everyday Is Christmas is dotted with eccentric moments that make its riff on Spector-era sounds feel bang up to date. “Underneath The Mistletoe” pairs a strident piano line with, and “Ho Ho Ho” has a touch of the untethered hedonism that characterized Sia’s biggest hit,: “Bring a bottle of booze / We got nothing to lose.” Meanwhile, the pared-back “Snowflake” would neatly sit alongside a heartfelt ballad from her 2008 album, Some People Have Real Problems. Sia worked with her longtime producer Greg Kurstin on Everyday Is Christmas, and the pair find impressive space for originality in a genre that operates within pretty narrow margins — as Sia admitted to Zane Lowe, the traditions of holiday music are basically “mistletoe, ‘Ho Ho Ho,’ Santa Claus, Christmas lists, elves,” and variations thereof.So why bother with a Christmas album at all? Well, one obvious answer is that a holiday hit is a surefire route to lucrative royalties, year-on-year.

But Sia doesn’t need the money, what with her Like with starring Kate Hudson and Maddie Ziegler, it seems that the artist was most motivated by the project’s creative challenges. In the same Beats 1 interview with Lowe, she said: “I thought we had a bit of a shortage of good Christmas music. Anything new, I wasn’t vibing that much on it. And so I thought, Wouldn’t it be nice to do something that I liked, and my managers were like, “obviously it’s. ‘an evergreen’” — which is a song that makes money forever.”.
