Grammy insider thinks Cheap Thrills sounds like P!nk
Quote:
Beer: I think you are underrepresenting Sia. I think this is her year.
Paul Grein: Commercially, it was her year. I don't think "Cheap Thrills" was as distinctive as "Chandelier" (Sia's 2014 hit, which was nominated for Record and Song of the Year). To me, "Cheap Thrills" sounds a lot like P!nk. It could have been a P!nk record. It was the best P!nk record of the year, better than P!nk's record ("Just Like Fire").
P!nk worked with Greg Kurstin (Cheap Thrills producer) for TTAL a lot (he produced Try and BMOLK) so maybe that's why. Albeit he also produced Chandelier but I think when you work with the same producer so much some things are bound to sound similar
