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!

Thank you Perez for promoting her!!!! She and Leona Lewis are incredible, and need to be brought to the US!!!! Bought both their albums from UK 6 months ago!!! Buy both their cds from Amazon!!! Two of the best albums of the year!!!!! They are worth it!!!
I've been a huge fan of Robyn for more than 10 years now. It's great to se her that happy!
/ Lucky Swedish girl=)
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!
WOW! i didn't know that robyn was so huge in america?! i'm a swedish girl, and i can tell you that she's not that huge here in sweden.
but yes, she's really goood!
Fucking brilliant artist.
I just love Robyn & Sweden!
God bless them all! Lots of love!
ROBYN is great!!! She is so natural. She has her on record company !! SHE i awsome!
She had her breaktrough when she was 11 years old here in Sweden!
She was released in USA 1997 with " Do You Know (What It Takes), Show Me Love samt Do You Really Want Me (Show Me Respect). She sold 1,5million copies of her album i USA!
I LOVE ROBYN! Her latest album is so infectious! I love "handle me" and "konichua Bitches"…every song is awesome!
CORRECTION: It was her first time EVER playing live in the States. EVER. And I was there last night. Best fucking night ever.
Loved Robyn back in the 90s when she was huge in Europe and I still love her now when she is making a great comeback around the world! Amazing new album!!
Re: Amapola – omg, really? that's so cool.
Now this is music!
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…
Like everyone else… have loved Robyn all along.
But I wish the crowd would shut the hell up! let the woman sing at least of the song!!
did anyone notice matt from taking back sunday there? she's even affecting the "punk" community
Terrible!
please come to chicago Robyn!!! you've got fans here!!!
omg i love that song… the cd is fuckin fantastic!!!
I LOVE ROBYNNNNNN!!!!!!
omg..i LUV HER!!! i missed her gigz in australia though..
i love robyn i kno she will make it big here i love her i love her
I'm so happy for her! Love her music and I'm not even a Swede LOL
I feel sorry for the twits that can't recognize good music. Get your head out your ass and go play some Wii. Leave the good shit for the grown ups.
OMG I can't wait to be there! Perez ~ It's my 27th bday and I wanna pic with you!
OMG i love her i won tix to her private 92.7 concert on thurs the 7th and am so going to the night concert. I love robyn so much best music ever.
She is so incredibly talented. She did things like this when she was 15 years old… 15 years old?!?… She deserves every single bit of success she can get!
Re: anglefan – Robyn is NOT a HE…. she's a GIRL!
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!
HEJA SVERIGEEEEEE
SWEDEN ROCKS !
Haha, love Robin.
I've listen to her songs since i was 5 years old.
Re: Christian –
….since when is iceland and finland a part of scandinavia..????
scandinavia is NORWAY
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….
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?
lol. you're all so funny. who the fuck wouldnt be proud of being a swede???? come on. robyn, abba, ikea, h&m……… i bet like all of you would have less clothes and less furniture if it wasnt for some awesome swedish people. and less kickass music aswell.
.
Perez I dont care for you much, but you are pretty spot on when it comes to music.
Re: Jenny – Jenny - Robin is actually spelled Robyn. Since you were 5?
Oh Bless her!!
best singer at the moment!!
LOVE HER!!!
#140….actually her given name is Robin with an "i", she changed it so it spells with "y" Robyn… And yeah Robyn´s been around here in Sweden 4 a bloody long time with her music…nice 2 c she´s making it big across the atlantic
#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
