The Energy Is Infectious

Filed under: Listen To This > Robyn

Robyn 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!

      By the way…do you know that it's Robyn singing in Britneys "Piece of me"?
      She's doing the second "you want a piece of me" in the chorus…

      I remember Robyn from way back, and was reintroduced to her music here on this site. You may not say the nicest things but you have great taste in music Perez and I'm now a huge fan of Robyn, Feist and Sia because of their exposure on here. Thanks! :-)

      Was at her concert in Dublin (Ireland) recently, OMG she is beyond amazing… Met her afterwards and she is SO sweet. The new album is insane, the best electro-pop record of recent years. 'With Every Heartbeat' was voted the best song of 2007 in the UK. Watch out America, Robyn is coming…

      All you jerks pretending to be "proud of being a swede" makes all that supposed proudness go away in a woosh right? just stop it highrollers

      What a boring tune.. check out swedish Sabaton! So much better..

      Most people knew the lyrics because her album was released in Sweden almost two years ago. The US tends to be a little behind when it comes to dance music, instead they assume all we want is R&B & Rap. Robyn knows her shit!

      Re: Christian
      ….since when is iceland and finland a part of scandinavia..????
      scandinavia is NORWAY

    32. angelina says – reply to this


      132

      Re: angelina
      and maybe i'll get everything this time..hmmmm

      scandinavia is only norway, sweden and denmark - you MAY include iceland, finland and the faroe island, but then you've not only used the maximum extended useage of "scandinavia", but it's also synonymous with the nordic countries….

      133

      Re: angelina
      …sweden and denmark - if you include finland and iceland u use the the possible extended usage, include faroe islands and u have used the maximal extended usage that takes Scandinavia as synonymous to the Nordic countries. So u MAY include the other countries ( due to historic references etcetc) but the correct thing would be - scandinavia is NORWAY

      ok, this is seriously the last time i'll try to leave a comment….
      I've tried to reply several times, but it only seems to come partially through - i'm not gonna bore anyone of u with this impromptu geographical lesson anymore, i'm pretty sure the guy it was ment for for understood it ages ago….oh well

      OMG! She can actually sing! How refreshing! More talent like this is needed in this world. All she needs is a drug habit and paparazzi to be famous..That's kinda sad huh?

      #23 So I take it you like hillbilly music then :>

      #42 Just like you like to do rimjobs on cows :>

      Robyn is a good singer and as some have said before that alot of stuff that comes from sweden have made a huge impact on the world music scene.

      So to everyone that thinks Sweden can't do shit go and rimjob a cow :>

      Svenskar ta ingen skit :D
