Following the lyric video and the teaser for the music video last month, the video for Sia‘s “Alive” is finally here! The focus is on a young Japanese star, Mahiro Takano, surrounded by debris and shadow as they demonstrate some kick-ass moves. Despite the harmlessness typically associated with children, Mahiro’s facial expressions and strong, confident moves show that, in this case, they are anything but.
As with Sia’s previous videos, the approach is simplistic but full of impact: this little person is powerful and resilient, which compliments the lyrics perfectly. “Alive” is taken from upcoming album This Is Acting which can be pre-ordered here. The music video was shot in Japan and directed by Daniel Askill and Sia, check it out below.
