Grammy- and Tony-winning vocalist Leslie Odom Jr. enlisted Sia for the new version of his song “Cold,” out Friday (Oct. 2).
The original track comes from his third album Mr, which he released in 2019 via S-Curve Records/BMG. This time around, the multiplatinum pop star adds her signature flair to the downtempo ballad, switching it up for an upbeat smash.
“Sia has been a friend for a few years now after I met her backstage at Hamilton. As I look at making that foray into the pop world and pop music, she’s been a really great mentor and friend,” the Broadway star said in a press release. “I sent her the album and asked if there was anything she would want to collaborate on. She said, ‘I’ll sing on Cold,’ which was her favorite song from the album, so we recorded a new version of it that I think you’re really going to like.”
