Sia: some people have REAL problems

Sia: some people have REAL problems

Australian singer Sia does a Starbucks with her new album some people have REAL problems. Most of the tracks are unobstrusive, which is a polite way of saying quite boring, with just a few songs with just enough gusto to keep you from nodding off. This is an album that should have been cut down to seize and released as an EP. The Kinks cover is nice, though.

some people have REAL problems will be in stores January 8 in a joint venture with Monkey Puzzle Records and Hear Music (yup, that coffee imprint).
