"I'm Still Here" is a song by Australian singer-songwriter Sia. It was released as a standalone single on 12 October 2018 by Monkey Puzzle and Atlantic Records[1] in connection with Sia's collaboration with French shoe brand Repetto. It is featured as a bonus track on the Japanese edition of Sia's ninth studio album, Music – Songs from and Inspired by the Motion Picture.[2][3]

Background and release

In 2018, Sia joined forces with Labrinth and Diplo to form pop supergroup LSD.[4] Their debut single, "Genius" was released on 3 May 2018,[5] followed by "Audio" a week later,[6] and "Thunderclouds" in August 2018.[7] Their debut album was originally slated for a November 2018 release, but was eventually released in April 2019.[8] 2018 also saw Sia collaborate with Dolly Parton and David Guetta on the singles "Here I Am" (from the Dumplin' soundtrack) and "Flames", respectively.[9][10]

On 28 September 2018, Sia announced the release of a collection of shoes, designed by her, in collaboration with French shoe company Repetto.[11] On 9 October, Sia teased the release of a new song titled "I'm Still Here",[12] and it was released on 12 October, in connection with the Repetto collaboration.[13][14][15][16][17] The shoe line was made available for purchase in February 2019.[18]

"I'm Still Here" was used in a public service announcement video from Everytown for Gun Safety, standing up against gun violence in the United States,[19][20] and was also featured in the HBO documentary At the Heart of Gold: Inside the USA Gymnastics Scandal.[21]

Composition

"I'm Still Here" is an "inspirational",[22] midtempo ballad which features Sia's "powerful" vocals.[15] Lyrically, it is about perseverance and Sia's battles with the past.[13][15] At a length of 4 minutes and 1 second,[23] the song was written by Sia and frequent collaborator Jesse Shatkin in the key of A major,[24] and produced solely by Shatkin.[25] Sia's vocals in the song span from F♯3 to A4.[24]
