It’s time for a classic “Who did it better?”

The 2014 mega-hit “Chandelier” by Sia is one of the most recognizable songs of the past few decades, and for good reason. It’s powerful, raw, and exceptionally catchy. While nothing can compare to Sia’s original recording, that hasn’t stopped two prominent artists from performing the song to the same dizzying degree in recent years: Kelly Clarkson and Adam Lambert!

In 2023, one enterprising fan stitched together a TikTok video showcasing Clarkson and Lambert belting out the song in their own distinct way.

Clarkson’s version is full of energy, and the way she can belt out that hook. She’s pitch-perfect, hitting high notes not even Sia did in the original! (It just goes to show that there really isn’t a song out there that the former Voice Coach can’t masterfully sing.)

On the other hand, Lambert’s version of “Chandelier” was all about spectacle. As a trapeze artist soared high above the stage, he sang in a slightly different key than the original.
