Sia's newest song dropped early on YouTube, an unexpected treat for fans of the smoky-voiced platinum-blonde singer.

The new song, titled "One Million Bullets," is part of a preview of her new album, This is Acting, and is the third track she's dropped recently. She also released "Alive" -- "you took it all, but I'm still breathing," she croons -- and "Bird Set Free,” both of which will be on the album expected January 29, 2016.

The words to the song are a tribute to undying love: "I pick the wrong kind, time after time I drank from the poisoned wine....I know that I'd take one million bullets babe, how many would you take?" They also recall the words, if not the theme, of Sia's singing on David Guetta's "Titanium," in which she sings, "you shoot me down, but all your bullets ricochet."

Sia's fans were, to say the least, excited about the unexpected holiday treat.
