New Song: Sia - 'Kill and Run'

sia new song kill and run the great gatsby soundtrack movie

Stunning! Interscope Records liberated today (April 25) via their official Soundcloud account the full audio of Australian singer-songwriter Sia's contribution to the soundtrack of "The Great Gatsby", this emotional ballad, entitled "Kill and Run". Listen above.

Whether or not the Baz Luhrmann-directed, and Leonardo DiCaprio-starred "The Great Gatsby" becomes a box office hit when it gets released worldwide next May 10 remains a mystery to me, but what I know for sure right now is that its soundtrack is gonna sell like hotcakes! The 14-song compilation is out May 7. Pre-order your copy now!

We've heard a few snippets, and full songs from the soundtrack in the past days, for instance, excerpts of the Beyonce contribution, a cover of Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black", Jay-Z's "100$ Bill", or Lana del Rey's glorious "Young and Beautiful" song in its entirety, but today the spotlight is fixed on the super-talented Sia.

The Australian musician, who is well known for penning the latest smash hits of the likes of Rihanna, Ne-Yo or David Guetta, slays on the epic "Kill and Run". A sweeping song, with a simple yet exquisite production of strings and piano that blends heavenly with Sia's unique vocals and way of singing, and lyrics. The ballad ends in a goosebumps-worthy crescendo with Sia belting out the lyrics of the hook in a heartbreaking kind of way. Epic.

Hit or Miss?
