New vocals from Sia original "Passenger" demo LEAKED

[Alex_1991]

The second verse is totally sung by Sia and was never heard before. The full demo is probably leaking.

At least four versions of this song exist: one recorded by Katy Perry, one recorded by Sia, one recorded by Myah Marie (that follows almost exactly Sia vocal lead and that was mixed with Britney in the unfortunate cd version), and the  final one recorded by Britney (well.. the verses at least).

It's a good song, ruined by a demo-ish final production and by the Myah vocal mess with proper care it could have been single material.
Side note: Britney is quoted as one of the composer, but it's not true at all: both the original versions share the same lyrics with the final one.

Burqua Jihad was a ******* mess!

That song never had Britney's vibe to me 

[LeglessJamie]

still an awesome song. I do not care who sung it or not but I just love the vibe

Doesn't suit her voice.

Sia nailed it and should have kept it for her.

its the vocals that ruin th song tbh   the song is so overproduced but it had a lot of potential  currentney needs to sing this song again tbh

This demo proves that Britney doesn't fit the song at all.

They should've at least made the register proper for her (or Myah), cause it's a song with a lot of potential and sung by Katy or Sia sounds powerful and meaningful, but with Britney's (or Myah's voice) sounds kinda sleepy.

the key should have been lowered by a half so that britney could sing the chorus and the bridge more comfortably. 
The music is overproduced too

[WootsWow]

I liked the Britney's version when BJ was released but Sia slayed and ******** both Britney and Katy.

I still remember the first time I heard this and thought it was Britney's ray of light song type, so spiritual and raw, those were good times

we thought it was a demo because of the messy production, but it ended up being the final version

actually, i think the song sounds dated af now. during Britney Jean era it sounded good but now after all these years, let's face it... it's dated. 

the only good thing about this song is the futuristic sound during some seconds in the beginning... after it it's just another basic song, imo.

This song is so great. I'm always reminded how great BJ could've been if it had been executed better. Songs like this, HOT, Perfume, Alien, BMS, NTIFY, don't cry, if they'd been done a little more professionally and the rest of the album was actually personal it could've been one of her best.
