Loved her last album, hopefully this one will be as good. This single took me a while to get into, but love it now.

didn't rate it first time i heard it but i heard it on the music channel earlier and i must say i'm rather impressed.

But i disagree with you, she just can't beat GaGa, but still a quality tune.

I prefer Be Mine though, one of my Fav songs of this century.

haven't heard it yet, but she's co-touring with kelis, so that makes her more than alright with me. i'm sure she'll be relieved.

Gaga is a fad and she has no longevity IMO.

Robyn has proven time and again that she is a credible singer and writer with amazing songs.

if ga ga packed up now, robyn would still have years to go to catch her up...

robyn had 4 hits back in the late 90's, only 1 (show me love) got inside the top 20.... then nothing until the excellant 'with every hearbeat' which WAS superb, however, shes failed to create anything as good as that, and this new track is another... dud, for me...its just there. so thats hardly 'longevity' is it! like it or not ga ga pishes all over robyn.

FFS, you can hardly go through any threads on here without someone moaning about Lady Gaga

I've heard an advance copy of her new album and it's incredible. Only 8 tracks, though, and a running time of just over 30 minutes.

A lot of the tracks are less "poppy" and more "dancey" than the single, and the last two tracks are acoustic, with a wonderful cover of a Swedish folk song as the last track.

I've listened to very little else for the last few days.

Here's some youtube links...

Track 1 (warning: strong language)
Track 2 (Fembots)
Last track (Jag Vet En Dejlig Rosa)
Track 6 (None of Dem, feat Royksopp)

Why does everything have to go back to Gaga? Jesus, it's so annoying, we get that some people don't like her. :yawn:

Honestly, it's getting so tiresome. Really like Dancing On My Own,I think Robyn is quite underrated.

Both GaGa and Robyn are great artists in thier own right, lets just leave it at that and concentrate on what this thread is about, ROBYN'S NEW SONG, WHICH I LIKE.

Quality song, I knew it was her too straightaway when I was listening on my radio.. her singing has always been full of emotion too.

It's such a good song, Robyn is so good at making rave-y pop music with genuine feeling. Many try and fail but Robyn nails is every time. She is very under-appreciated.

Body Talk Pt.1 is getting very strong early reviews, it should be good

I was expecting something good after the comments here, but it's really really dull.

None of Dem w/ Royksopp is awesome!!! From some seemingly cold and harsh vocal beginnings, flowers one of the most ecstatic dance tracks of the year....

(and DomO, is too, too sad... but in that kinda of PopMisery Robyn does so well....)

Zig and Zag also did fairly well in the charts, as did Steps and Aqua - hardly a measure of quality. Anyone with a good ear for smart pop music knows that Robyn is a genuine talent and miles ahead of the current crop of popular artists.

And critical acclaim does not equal commercial success... look at Goldfrapp... very rarely trouble the singles chart....

This song is really growning on me, everytime i hear it, i like it even more. Defiantly in my top 10 singles of the year.

Hoping for a top 10 placement, but with the Dizzie/ James Cordon and Kylie Minogue relased the same week, i doubt she has a chance of making the top 2.
