Sam Smith and Beck (ah-hem, white dudes in general — we’re looking at you Eminem for winning Best Rap Album) may have swept the Grammy Awards last night  (Smith nabbed Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Album while Beck won Best Album of the Year, Best Rock Album, Best Engineered Album-Non-Classical) but Australian singer-songwriter Sia, comedian Kristen Wiig and dancer Maddie Ziegler stole the show performing Sia’s “Chandelier.” The performance was crazy, silly, emotional — a refreshing change of pace from the staged and canned performances that usually grace the stage at the Grammys. Wiig proves herself here again as a top physical comedian and Ziegler has proven herself as someone to watch.

Can we please bring Sia to Eugene please?

Sia and Ziegler, age 12, paired up for the 2014 music video for “Chandelier,” which has been viewed more than 520 million times. That’s right 520 MILLION TIMES. Check it out below.
