Listen to this when
Titanium
Say what you want. I'm still standing. 🛡️
Who it's for
The song reframes harsh words as something that bounces off rather than something to absorb, a simple self-efficacy message listeners can borrow when they feel attacked.
Feelings it meets
What it is

It was written by Guetta, Sia, Giorgio Tuinfort and Afrojack, and produced by Guetta, Tuinfort and Afrojack. The song is about inner strength and holding firm against attacks. Guetta kept Sia's demo vocal on the final release.
