Why Sweden rocks my world

Robyn.  Body Talk. Part 1. 14 June 2010.  Everyone knows her from her hit singles "Show Me Love" and "Do You Know (What It Takes)" but I know her from her career that continued from there.  Her sound has become much more dance-electronica-pop since her Grammy nominee and though she's made a name for herself internationally, she hasn't really broken through in the US.  It's a shame because she is incredibly creative and talented.  In my opinion, she's taken the spotlights that were once filled by such great artists as Cyndi Lauper and The Eurythmics.

Her first single off of her 5th studio album (which will be released in three parts in 2010) is "Dancing On My Own."  It's Robyn at her best- great beat that keeps you moving.  I cannot wait for her to release a video for "Fembot" and "None of Dem" (which features Royksopp, another Wonky Pop favorite).  Robyn is also touring with Kelis (milkshake anyone?) in the states to promote her Body Talk album on the "All Hearts Tour."  They'll both be in San Francisco on July 24th, along with Dan Black & Far East Movement!  I'll be there for sure!

Sweden, how I love you so!
