The Energy Is Infectious
Filed under: Listen To This > RobynRobyn played her first show in America in years, Tuesday night in New York City, at a sold out concert at the Highline Ballroom.
Her album's not even out here yet, but the audience knew ALL the words to her songs. And they sang along to every tune!
Just watch this clip of her exquisite With Every Heartbeat from the gig. Her smile is huge. The crowd could not be any more into it.
Robyn plays this Saturday at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, and YOU KNOW Perez is gonna be there!

11TH
Yaaay!
She's great, very talented & very sweet. I'm so happy for her, and I'm proud to be a Swede! GO SWEDEN!!!
i was there too, she was too cute
u could tell she was havin a good time
i
This song has been on the Victoria's Secret play list since December! I love it, and had no idea it was Robyn who was singing it!
LOVE HER
She´s so good.
I would like to be the FIRST to say I willmiss Robyn.
I'm glad for hur
:D:D
I have never heard of her! But she rocks!!
who?
she sucks!!
wow, a pop artist that really sings ! and looks like the band is really playing !
wow ! ive never heard of her, but its amazing how they made a song with only two chords.
thats talent !
who?
I love this woman. So strong, and honest and humble and an all around true artist… she never ceases to amaze me, I'm super jealous about the LA show Perez….tell Robyn that Canada loves her and that she needs to come visit us soon!!! What a breath of fresh air …
Yes, He is energy and awesome! I lvoe his shows very much. I was told that his personal blog was found at a celeb singles website called (MillMatch dot com) or something just like that. But I don't think he has enough time for writing a blog on the internet. Maybe it's done by his fans.
I heart her so much! Shes dope.
i love her.. i love her.. i love her
Fab!!!
1st
Only Europeans and Gay men like this kind of Pop, dance, Europop CRAP! Swedish? Please, nothing from the Scandinavian countries has ever been good. Please Abba was your favorite, I am sure. EURO TRASH. Perez has no taste in music. She is a fat Swed!
that is soooo sweet!
it wasn't her first show in the states in years - it was her first show in the states ever!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE her! I remember listening to her when I was YOUNG. Sitting in my room, singing along to every song. She's grown so much. SO AMAZING!
I can't get past how ugly she is to even hear the song!!!!
i absolutley love her and this song…but my favourite is handle me…love from Hungary
Re: ummmmmmm….ew – [re=1459789]
What a loser.
Go back to buying Jessica Simpson and Paris Hillton's songs then. Jeez no wonder your country is fucked up
I'm so proud to be from sweden when I here you say all the good things about Robyn. She totaly rock ! I love her remix or duett or what it is whit snoop dogg´s song sexual eruption. It's better then the original track.
I was at this show, and it was AMAZING. As a fan from the early ninties, the highlight for me was the stripped down version of "Show Me Love" she sang during her encore. Great pop from a great singer. It's been awhile since we've had that Stateside.
Who the hell is that and what is infectious about it. Probably an infected disease is what you'll get listening to that piece of shit.
Did you know that Robyn sing the backing vocal in "Piece of Me" on Britneys Blackout album?
ACTUALLY, PEREZ, SHE SAID IT WAS HER FIRST SHOW IN AMERICA EVER!
MY SWEEEEDE Robyn.. She Rocks… Now this is real music America!
I love Robyn!
Hey Perez and loyal readers! I was at this show too and I must say it was absolutely AMAZING. Robyn said that it was almost 10 years to the day that her first album was released in the US and that this was her first time performing a concert in the US EVER! Robyn gave so much energy and the crowd did know every word to every song, although most songs were from her latest album that hasn't even been released in the US yet. (I bought the import a while ago though!) Robyn seemed SO happy and even a bit overwhelmed at the audiences crazy love and support for her. To me, it even looked like she was almost brought to tears a time or two.
AMAZING show, AMAZING artist. The US still loves Robyn!!!!
ah i forgot all about her, thats awesome that she's coming back. i use to be so into her song show me love, when i was a kid.
she sounds so amazing live! love love love her!
All good music comes from Sweden.
Britney Spears, nsync, Backstreet boys & alot of others, Thanx to Max Martin!
So dont talk shit about Sweden, its unique, and got soooo much talented people!
She NEEDS to come to Montreal!!!!
THIS BITCH BLOWS PEREZ
Much Love to Robyn from Canada!
Amazing, beautiful, strong, talented!
Her best song is definately cant handle me!!!!!
she is from lovelyt sweden! she is amazing, also sweden
Being 100% Swedish myself, I am very proud of the little girl from Sweden!!! She has struggled through the years to be taken serious outside Sweden and am happy to see that she is being successful!!! As a Swede living in the US since a while back I am proud and happy for her!!! Now if she could only come to St Louis, MO!!! Heja Robyn!!!
It's great to see Robyn doing her thing!!! She is great!!!! Love her music!!!
Im very proud to be swedish a moment like that… Robyn is sooo talented! Hope she will be back in Stockholm verry soon… Fan va du är bra! kom hem!
OMG how 80's is that outfit - she could be in bananarama!!!
Robyn
This song and the other one, Be Mine, I never get tired of hearing. My friends and I love those songs and they are so fun to sing along to. More, Robyn, More!
SHE MAKES ME SMILE WITH EVERY HEART BEAT! LOOOOOVE!
Robyn is so awesome! I love that everyone was singing along.
Perez the reason she is smilling like a fuckin loon… and rubbing her hair with her hands ect ect…is SHE'S AS FUCKIN HIGH AS FUCKIN HIGH CAN BE ON E!!…still luv yer fat ass x
she sucks
When I was a kid eveyone got the same haircut as her, She was huge in Sweden but she hasn't played shows Sweden for a long time now.
Perez - thank you for introducing her to all of us who otherwise are not cool enough to have known about her - I miss this style of pop music so much and got her album on a visit to europe after listening here.
GET her to come to Boston please! We'd love to see her play live here.
SHE IS SOOOOO AMAZING!!!! I just ordered some CDs of her music and let me say, HOT, HOT, HOT!!! I still have my original copy of "robyn is here" her US release, circa 1997. Does anyone remember that?
Wish I could be there on Saturday, but I can't afford the tix. Have fun for me Perez!!! I've been waiting for her to come our way!!!
I remember when she released her first single in Sweden, she was like 15 or 16 and said things like "but I feel black on the inside".
I do think she is very talented though, and I think her old label is going to regret dropping her.
I was there the show was amazing, Robyn is amazing!! If you don't like it keep your filthy small minded minds closed!!!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE WAS GOOD. GLAd she is back.
i saw robyn live in Gothenburg for years and years ago, it sucked. but now she's a big girl and rockZZ. Go Sweden and Go Robyn
i fucking love her… she is so amazing! it made me so happy seeing everyone singing to her song…. thanks perez, that was awsome!
i agree tell her to come to canadaland!!!!!
I AM SO PROUD TO BE SWEDISH! She's been doing great music - and HER OWN THING - since she was 16! No product what so ever! Go ROBYN!
//Nic.
Wow…what a voice. She sounds a lot like Kate Bush. I was wondering where Robyn was.
Re: anglefan –
Uhm, angelfan… she's a girl. Or woman.
Re: hhahahah –
Amen to that!
Perez you better tell us all about how her show in LA is!! I can't wait to hear about it, she's so fricking awesome I love her!! Thanks for telling me about her music , I love you Perez!

yeahh.. i think Robyn is great!! And it's a bit amazing that a country like sweden with only 9 millions habitants makes so good music ! Swedish songwriters writes songs for many of the big artists in the USA!! I Love sweden
I was there last night, and it was by far one of the best concerts I have ever been to, I've been an avid Robyn fan for years now and I can say that she surpassed my expectations, and boy what a crowd pleaser she was.
love this song. sooooo sad. i wish i could see her live.
robyn has been big in sweden for many, many, many years, and nooow, she's in usa. thats big!
i have listen to her since i was 10.
SVERIGE
LOVE to perez, LOVE to robyn !
her album's been out in Europe for ages.
yey finally i didnt know that she was so big in Usa Go sweden
Listen to 'List of demands' in this version…
Jenny Wilson & Robyn …you tube
I was at the Robyn show last night and I have to say that it was fantastic! She was great and had such an infectious, positive energy. My friends and I had a great time, with the exception of the Tom Cruise/Dorothy Hamill looking douchebag who pushed his way in front of me. If Robyn weren't so cute, I'm positive I would have smashed him over the head with my beer bottle.
granted Robyn looks like she might have fallen from the 90's but its so clear how much she is loving whats she'd doing. and thats what makes music magical.. (yeah i said magical, but its really early right now)
perez have a ton of fun!! and tell her we LOVE HER and to do more shows in the states! like ATLANTA!
even since i was about 5-6 years old, i love her, have loved her and will always do
:D
i'm proud to be a swede too, haha!
and i'm really glad for hur
I LOVE ROBYN! She is such a talanted girl, love her music
Greetings LadyL from SWEDEN =D
Heja Robyn!!! So glad she's doing well, we've missed her for some time.
robyn's back .. kylie's back .. thank goodness for goodness in the world .. yayness
Robyn! Du äger! Du är helt oslagbart underbar! Så himla härligt och se att det går som på räls nu för dig! Du är världsbäst! *Blir helt tårögd*
Go Grrrl!
Whoah I have heard this song at work like everyday and never realized it was her! I love this song!
She's so awesome! I love her unique sence of (clothing and music) style! With Every Heartbeat was such a big hit in Europe (so is Handle Me)
Perez has passed along some amazing artists and I know will continue to do so. ROBYN however is for me his crown jewel… well Mika and Amy also, but Robyn is just the shiz. I remember her from back in the day but this beyatch just knows how to throw down some sick ass music! That crowd was amazing, the performance incredible and just a win win. THANK YOU for that video Perez. w00t
She is so cute…I love when artists get into the crowd's reaction. What a cool show it must have been!
Oh god she's adorable.
For you guys who like Robyn; i'm sure you will LOVE another swedish girl called Lykke Li. serch for her name on youtube and you will find a video with her collaborating with none other than ROBYN!, AND shout out louds AND Peter bjorn and john. Great vid!
#23, go and get some information about the musicindustry ’cause you sure seem to have enormous gaps in that knowledge of yours. And what do you mean by saying that there's nothing good coming from Scandinavia? I bet you're just one of those americans that never ever been anywhere else but still think that you know everything. Go and look where your celebrities come from in the first place, I bet many of them have grandparents from European countries.. Idiot.
Robyn ROCKS. I was totally there, pretty much up in the front. Got some good pics/vids, and we scored a setlist.
BEST. NIGHT. EVER.
-D
I have had a crush on robyn since she has been singing.
Thrilled for her she deserves a comeback
OMG I didnt know Robyn was coming to LA!! The tickets are all sold out! IS there anyway to get in to see the show!??!?!?!
Sorry, I forgot Finland.
I am SO sorry, truly! U are of course of Scandinavia, - U gave us mobile phones.
Sorry again. I did know, - I just made an error.
WE LOVEEE ROBYN!!! The idiots that say she is crap are too poor to understand good music, cause you have too many life problems!!!xx
