AceShowbiz - Australian singer/songwriter Sia Furler travels back to 1987 for her "Move Your Body" lyric video. Directed by Lior Molcho, the goofy visuals focuses on a young dancer, portrayed by 8-year-old Lilliana Ketchman, who dons Sia's trademark black-and-blonde bob wig.
The video, which was released on Thursday, January 12, sees a family posing for family portraits in "Move Your Body Studios" in a mall, as the protagonist twirls, jumps and pumps her arms. She breaks free of her parents and runs off set where she finds Sia's wig in a dressing room. Once she tries it on, she can't stop her feet from moving.
She goes on sneaking into some Glamour Shots-inspired photoshoots, which show acid wash fashion, funky decor and backcombed hair of the late '80s, until her parents drag her away. But at the end of the clip, she is seen dancing with all people she has interrupted.
"Move Your Body" is featured on Sia's seventh studio installment "This Is Acting", which debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart. The album consists of 12 tracks that Sia wrote for other singers, including Rihanna, Adele and Beyonce Knowles, before they turned them down. "Move Your Body" was originally written for Shakira, but was rejected. The single peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart.
