The track was written with Adele and Tobias Jesso Jr. and is the first to show the concept of Sia's new anthology. On This Is Acting, the songs have all been written by or with Sia, and were originally intended for others, but for some reason not used. Instead of laying them to rest, Sia's transformed the tunes into her own record.
This Is Acting will be released 29 January.
Watch the "Alive" video below.
