Aussie singer/songwriter Sia Kate Isobelle Furler is back in the form of fifth studio album We Are Born after working with the highly-criticized-at-the-moment Christina Aguilera on her comeback LP Bionic (Sia is responsible for the heartwrenching ballad You Lost Me among others) and also contributing a track called My Love to the third installment of the Twilight saga's OST.

Quality is a trait highly present in We Are Born. May the song be carefree and fun, or downright serious and broody; it's a feature that just wouldn't go away. The album opens on a high with The Fight, which starts off with childlike, muffled yells and continually explodes into a hands-in-the-air chorus, making one ridiculously energetic pop anthem. Then comes the lead single Clap Your Hands, and the energy lives on. While not exactly the best track on the LP, it manages to go to great lengths in getting its point across. Stop Trying is one of We Are Born's highlights, and much like the previous two songs, possesses an infectious vitality, as well as being one of the catchiest tracks in the LP. Sia tones down a little in You've Changed, and we now hear the first of the love-related tracks and We Are Born swerves toward a mature route.
