"Déjà Vu" is a song by Italian disc jockey producer Giorgio Moroder, featuring vocals from Australian singer Sia. The song is the third single on Moroder's 2015 album, Déjà Vu. It was released on 17 April 2015, as a digital download via iTunes.[1]

Composition

"Déjà Vu" is a disco-rooted song with a "funky" '70s pop vibe, supported by disco-infused guitars and a four on the floor beat.[2][3]

Music video

Directed by Alexandra Dahlström,[4] the music video follows a young man (played by Drew Lipson) who visits a hotel and repeatedly encounters multiple Sia lookalikes, that are either loving and kind or manipulative and nasty to the man, who, unfortunately, can not tell the difference between the look-alikes.[5] A teaser for the video was released on 30 April,[6] with the official video premiering on 5 May 2015.[7]
