Chandelier is a 2014 single by Australian singer Sia from her album 1000 Forms of Fear, built around its anthemic chorus about swinging from a chandelier as a metaphor for reckless partying. The song became a global hit and its music video, featuring dancer Maddie Ziegler, became widely shared online. The chorus later lived on in short-form edits, memes and soundboards, where the stretched vocal works as shorthand for dramatic freedom, chaos or a sudden emotional high.
