That sounds like a bit of a gip having bought the first two parts.

the Diplo & Snoop tracks are the only kinda weak spots.

Agree re: Diplo but that Snoop track is the highlight of Side B, are you kidding?

So I hear the final part of this trilogy is going to be five songs from part one, five from part two and then five new songs including the new version of Indestructible.

What's yr source??

that is what digital spy says http://www.digitalspy.com/music/news/a281596/robyn-announces-new-single-details.html

she said early on that she might do that but hadn't decided yet

It's fine with me, tbh, because I haven't bought a physical copy of either of the eps so far.

Okay, that didn't take long: http://soundcloud.com/robyn/sets/indestructible

Not in the same league as Dancing on My Own or the redux version of Hang With Me, but still cool.

Awesome thanks!

― more than ever convinced ilxor is a sock (ilxor)

I completely agree with this, It might actually be my favourite song from this era.

This is what I'm hoping part three will look like,

Don't Tell Me What To Fucking Do
Fembot
Dancing On My own
Cry When You Get Older
None Of Dem
In My Eyes
Include Me Out
Hang With Me
Love Kills
U Should Know Better
Indestructible (New Version)

Plus another four new songs.

I hope the single version of Dancing on My Own is included rather than the ep version.

In My Eyes
Include Me Out
Hang With Me
Love Kills

This is a phenomenal four-track run, possibly my favorite of 2010.

^

Funny, cause this would be mine:

Don't Tell Me What To Fucking Do
Fembot
Dancing On My own
Cry When You Get Older

The final track listing for part 3 looks like this

1. Fembot
2. Don´t fucking tell me what to do
3. Dancing on my own
4. Indestructible
5. Time Machine
6. Love kills
7. Hang with me
8. Call your girlfriend
9. None of dem
10. We dance to the beat
11. U should know better
12. Dance hall queen
13. Get myself together
14. In my eyes
15. Stars 4-ever

Having Dance Hall Queen instead of Cry When You Get Older is a terrible decision and it doesn't really need to have Don't Tell me What to fucking do and We Dance to the Beat as they are pretty similar. It's still going to be an album of the contender for me but it's not perfect.

don't get the including songs from previous two thing at all

That piano version of "Dancing On My Own" is gorgeous - cheers, StanM.

Having Dance Hall Queen instead of Cry When You Get Older

This is a fucking travesty, CWYGO is the second best track on Pt.1!

This is a fucking travesty, CWYGO is the second best track on Pt.1!

I don't hate Dance Hall Queen but yes

and it doesn't really need to have Don't Tell me What to fucking do and We Dance to the Beat as they are pretty similar.

Absolutely. The first half of Part 2 is pretty flat for me (only bought it last week though), so when Dance To The Beat starts it's like "whee, now this is going to be like the first half of Part 1"

Looks like I'll only need to download the few new tracks instead of buying part three.....

I really was hoping I wouldn't have to pay for material twice to finish off this trilogy, ugh.

you'd think they would wait until the thing is actually complete before repackaging it.

I think the tracklisting is pretty good. I only would have swapped None of Dem & Love Kills for Cry When You Get Older & Include Me Out.

Given the length of the first two albums, I figure there might be enough space on one CD for all tracks. At least if only one version of each song is included.

you'd think they would wait until the thing is actually complete before repackaging it.

Actually, if you look at the cover art, this isn't being called "Pt. 3" at all. Just Body Talk. I'd bet this is how it was always intended.

Yeah this is Body Talk the album, which includes some stuff from parts 1 and 2 and some new stuff. Which is basically what we all said she should be doing right? I'm actually not a very big fan of Cry When You get Older so I think this is (almost) perfect.

i am also a little confused by the inclusion of both "don't fucking tell me what to do" and "we dance to the beat" as they serve essentially the same purpose

The strong suggestion from early reports was that it would be three mini-albums.

http://pitchfork.com/news/38039-robyn-plans-three-albums-for-2010/

Pitchfork: How did you come up with the plan to release three albums across one year?

Robyn: ... It's not a new idea-- a lot of people put out less-planned releases that are not that long, sometimes they're called EPs. But these releases are not EPs. They're albums with enough songs to make them feel like real bodies of work. They are shorter than usual, but still closer to ten songs than five.

that interview also specifically says that she wasn't sure what would happen with the third one:

Right now I'm finishing the first one, which is going to come out in June. I'm already working on the second album so I hope that'll come out sometime after the summer. Then later on maybe another release. Let's see how far we get.

which is why I said strong suggestion. Nowhere has Part 3 been discussed as a de facto compilation or even as something not titled Part 3.

Robyn iirc

Of course, "Robyn plans two EPs for 2010" is a far less eye-catching headline than "Robyn plans three albums for 2010" so it's easy to see why they sold it that way.

I guess she's changed her mind? If you're implying this was a cunning plan to hornswoggle her fans I really doubt it. IDK, I think it's good to have the best stuff collected in one place.

robyn hittin the stateside PR hard with appearance on tonight's "gossip girl"

much much prefer the orchestral version of 'Indestructible'

very slightly prefer orchestral Indestructible; massively prefer acoustic Hang With Me, the drums really plod on the second version

Part 3 is out there. Think it's a bad rip though.

all the new songs are web ripped outside the new single (192), all the older songs are 320. i will wait.

the new songs are good! not sure if this is true, but wikipedia sez that one of them is produced by max martin. does that make this her first time working with him since the "do you know (what it takes)"/"show me love" days?

Yeah, "Call Your Girlfriend" is a Max Martin thing. It's not my favorite of the newest ones (that's "Stars 4-Ever"), but it's really nice.

Oh wait, I was wrong. "Time Machine" is the Max Martin track. meh.

btw, she's performing on Jimmy Fallon's show tonight.

buy a ticket from god! or allah! or something...

I really like the idea of this video, although I feel shallow for being so distracted by her teeth.

body talk pt. 1 - 8 news songs, $8.00

body talk pt. 2 - 8 new songs, $8.00

body talk - 10 previously released songs, 5 news songs, $15.00

^^ feel like the pricing model kinda sticks it to fans who've bought the first two already?

You can buy it on Amazon MP3 for #3.99 this week, though, so get to it.

i don't like mp3 though, i like physical product :(

I'm waiting for it to be boxed up with some bonus tracks.

Okay then, I guess you should've decided early on whether you really wanted those eps or not when there was absolutely no way this wasn't going to be collected on an album proper. Also, where do new releases cost $15?

it's $14 + change on amazon, $16 or so at local stores... i avg'd it out in my head

not to mention, there are some FANTASTIC tracks on those EPs that didn't make the cut for the album proper

Your aversion to mp3 is the problem, then, because you could've bought those individually.
