Pop singer Sia set aside her iconic bow over the weekend, when she performed a Gospel version of her hit 2013 song “Elastic Hearts” during rapper Kanye West’s invite-only “Sunday service.”
Kim Kardashian posted a video of West’s choir singing the rewritten version of Sia’s song. Just a few seconds into the two-minute video, you can hear the Australian singer’s signature soulful sound.

Eventually, the khaki-clad army of singers invited Sia onto the platform, where she then sang a few bars of the reimagined “Elastic Hearts” a cappella.
“There’s so many videos from today’s Sunday service I want to share with you guys,” Kardashian wrote of the event. “The rain forced us inside, but it was magical. No mics, no band, no speakers but it was perfect. Not a dry eye in the room today.”
Kardashian, 38, posted another video of the choir singing the Gospel version of Sia’s song:

West has been hosting the “Sunday service” events every weekend for months. He even brought the “Sunday service” to Coachella on Easter Weekend in April.
During an interview with Elle, Kardashian described the faith-based service as “more like a healing experience for my husband,” noting it has a “Christian vibe.”
“It’s just music; there’s no sermon,” she said. “It’s definitely something he believes in — Jesus — and there’s a Christian vibe. But there’s no preaching. It’s just a very spiritual Christian experience.”
