Robyn Appreciation Thread
I've noticed quite a few people on this forum say how they like Robyn and that her latest album 'Body Talk' has been vastly underrated.
I agree, so I thought it would be nice to set up a thread to talk about her music. What are your favourite tracks from 'Body Talk'? My favourites are 'Time Machine', 'Indestructable', 'Love Kills', 'Call Your Girlfriend' and 'Get myself together'.

I really liked her Body Part trilogy, each part had some stellar tracks, she should've just made an album from these though:
Don't F*cking Tell Me What To Do Cry When You Get Older Dancehall Queen None of Dem In Your Eyes Include Me Out Love Kills We Dance To The Beat Criminal Intent You Should Know Better Time Machine Get Myself Together All of these are the best tracks, would've made a fantastic single album! The other 7-8 I could've lived without!

LOVE Robyn!
Body Talk was such a fantastic thrill of a trilogy that truly made my summer last year! She is a fantastic and overlooked artist i truly feel Her vocals kinda remind me of Kate Bush/Bjork slight timbre sounds and very soft yet emotionally packed. A very genuine artist....yet also eccentric and entertaining....i love Robyn!

Röyksopp) 08|We Dance to the Beat 09|U Should Know Better 08|Dancehall Queen 07|Get Myself Together 07|In My Eyes 07|Stars 4-Ever |

I would have loved Fembots, Cry When You Get Older, Love Kills, In My Eyes and Time Machine to have been singles...I love Robyn though and can't wait for the next album

I love Robyn, and I liked the Body Talk albums, but I honestly think I prefer the self titled one. With Every Heartbeat is still one of my alltime favourite songs.

For all you Robyn fans, you'll be pleased to know Call Your Girlfriend has made the BBC Radio 1 playlist this week

Love her!!! "Indestructable" is my favourite song.
I wish her sales would improve, although this past month they really have risen thanks to R1. She's great. |

How good is "indestructable" the chorus is amazing.
The video is great with all the tubes showing the emotions. |

Love Robyn and love her style, like a young Cyndi Lauper more than Bjork I have to say though.
Loved since her 90s days singing Do You Know What It Takes and Show Me Love |
