ACCLAIMED AUSTRALIAN SINGER / SONGWRITER WILL PERFORM THE GRAMMY

AWARD-WINNING SONG ON TODAY'S THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW

NEWS | Kyle Pedley

Singer-songwriter Sia is following in the footsteps of Robbie Williams, lending a reimagining of a classic to Disney Pixar's hugely successful Finding Nemo franchise, as today it is announced that her rendition of 'Unforgettable' will feature over the end credits of upcoming sequel Finding Dory.

Five-time Grammy® nominee, Sia, who announced this week her 22-city North American Nostalgic for the Present tour, will be performing the song for the first time on today’s The Ellen DeGeneres Show. DeGeneres, coincidentally, is the voice of the much beloved and forever forgetful blue tang Dory.

American songwriter Irving Gordon first wrote the song in 1951, and in 1992 won a Grammy® for it when Natalie Cole included the tribute to her late father on her album of duets. 'Unforgettable' remains revered worldwide today.

“Dory's story makes me teary,” said Sia of getting involved in the project. “When Ellen asked me, I couldn't refuse!”

Check out the official trailer for 'Finding Dory' ahead of it's July release.

Finding Dory director Andrew Stanton has long been a fan of the native Australian performer. “In the same way Robbie Williams did his own unique twist on a classic song for Finding Nemo, Sia captures the soulful truth of the Nat King Cole classic ‘Unforgettable,’ and makes it all her own,” said Stanton. “They are a perfect complement to one another, just like the two films.

“We couldn’t be happier, and are really hoping to get tickets to her October show at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif.,” the director continued. “Just throwin’ it out there.”

The Finding Dory soundtrack, featuring Thomas Newman’s score and Sia’s rendition of “Unforgettable,” will be available from Walt Disney Records on June 17, 2016, wherever music is sold. “Finding Dory” opens nationwide the same day in US and on 29th July in UK.
