So excited for this. Really love Robyn, she's very underrated I think.

Her new single 'Do It Again' is excellent and 'Sayit' & 'Every Little Thing' are already available to listen to.

Here is 'Do It Again':

Nah!

"Do It Again" is a "proper" tune, not that.

The original song of that title is by Steely Dan, but this jazz version was the best ever from nearly two decades ago.

This is up for sale on Amazon. I got all excited thinking "yay she's back". £7.99 for just 4/5 tracks. Hopefully we get a full length album soon. She's been teasing a new album since late 2012.

Not sure what to fully make of Do It Again.
The first half is a little too stuttery while the second half flows much better.

No new material anytime soon apparently. She was working with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis (Janet's producers) earlier this year though.

The digital version is only £4.99 on iTunes if it helps.

Robyn's brand new video for 'Sayit'.

I love it. Amazing visuals and her look this era is really captivating, really wish this was all for a full 10/12 track album though. I reckon there could be a part two or *something* though.

Well after Body Talk, she said she'd never do the split album thing again, but then again, Robyn says a lot of things I hope so! The more Robyn the better, and she never fails to deliver!

That's true. I've never been disappointed in her work, ever.

I think if she wanted to do 10 split albums I'd probably buy them lol, but she really puts heart and soul into her work with full control, it's more meaningful than say...Rita Ora or even Rihanna. Robyn is true pop imo.

The EP is fantastic. 'Monument' is beautiful and just amazing in my opinion. I also love the fierceness of 'Sayit'. I love all 5 tracks

Charted at #20 which i think is quite good considering that there was hardly any promotion etc.

Yeah that's not too bad, there's been no promotion or no hype either. Hardly no anything to be honest.

I think Robyn's just glad to be making alternative (well slightly alternative) pop music despite chart success or not. This EP is her best work in years I think.
