Electronic duo Odesza released a "choppy, chillwave" remix of "Big Girls Cry" on 5 December 2014.[1][2] On 15 October 2014, Sia performed the song at The Recording Academy.[3] On 2 April 2015, "Big Girls Cry" was released as the third single in the United Kingdom. Sia performed it live on Australian television show Sunrise on 21 April 2015.[4]

Music video

On 2 April 2015, a video for the song was released on Sia's Vevo YouTube channel. The video features Maddie Ziegler facing the camera using her hands and face to express emotions. At one point a pair of hands come into the frame (shown in behind-the-scenes footage to be Sia's own hands) manipulating Ziegler's face and covering her mouth, they appear to lift Ziegler by the throat into the air until only her kicking feet are shown, then Ziegler drops back into the frame to resume her emotive facial contortions. The single shot video with various lighting and a plain black background is comparable to Lorde's "Tennis Court".[5]

As of June 2022, the video had received more than 300 million views.[5] Since mid 2018, the video has not been available for viewers in Australia and New Zealand.[5]
