As many of us know, Avicii has announced his retirement from doing live touring, which he announced in a lengthy and heartfelt letter to his fans. We are all sad to see Avicii leaving the world of touring, but we are happy to see him settle into a better place in his life, one that might provide him with a healthier lifestyle. Perhaps a little bit more time relaxing will produce some amazing music that would never have existed for all we know.
Speaking of some great Avicii music, he debuted a new song– most likely his last single to be released while he finishes his current tour and goes on to retires– while touring in Dubai which left the world with a lot of questions, mainly: is that Sia? At first, it was hard to tell as there was no real recording (rather someone just recorded it on their phone). Still, there has not been any confirmation if this is Sia, but just listen to it! It’s definitely Sia, which is no surprise given her involvement in collaborations with other EDM artists in the past, such as David Guetta.

Alesso is also rumored to be involved with the production of this song, but Billboard reportedly asked his management which stated that he was not involved. But who knows.
It may be the end of Avicii’s touring career (for now anyway), but we can let this song be a beacon of hope. We will be hearing more great stuff from Avicii. Just because he is not going on tour any more does not mean that we will not be able to experience his fantastic beats and the glorious way that he puts a song together.
We’ll be looking out for more news on Avicii and hoping for some great album once he’s settled into his retirement from touring.
