in other words, she's too twee!

(obv she should be on the radio, but 2005 != 1992)

I love her too, btw, in all her bad teethed glory

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 12:01 (eighteen years ago) link

Well if you look at Rachel Stevens, Girls Aloud and Annie as examples then she has no chance of decent success.

― mms (mms), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 12:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Maybe if she teamed up with some blokes from Northern England...

― sean gramophone (Sean M), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 12:37 (eighteen years ago) link

robyn has even less of a chance of success than annie.

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 12:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't know about that. I can hear Be Mine getting some play on the radio more than anything on the Annie record. Just depends what image she promotes herself with and how strong a push the record company give her.

I don't know that I'd believe that Robyn could be on U.S. radio if not for Natasha Bedingfield.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 14:18 (eighteen years ago) link

so the question remains, i guess... is this ever getting an official u.s. release?

― marc h. (marc h.), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 14:20 (eighteen years ago) link

Robyn has a better chance than Annie on account of most of her album being acousticy twaddle. Britain apparently loving that shit generally (even from foreigns - see Jose Gonzalezzzz). This will translate into maybe crashing into the album charts at #64 with singles firmly outside the top 75.

acousticy twaddle? where?

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 15:21 (eighteen years ago) link

*points in it's direction*

I don't think there is any acousticky twaddle but, then I don't know what that means

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 16:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Is Steve accusing Bum Like You of being TWADDLE??!??!?!?!?!??!!?

― kit brash (kit brash), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 20:06 (eighteen years ago) link

bum like you does not sound acousticky

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 23:16 (eighteen years ago) link

not that I know what that means

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 11 January 2006 23:16 (eighteen years ago) link

it's a synonym for 'crap', which 'bum like you' assuredly is

― The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 12 January 2006 12:18 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't like you

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 12 January 2006 12:20 (eighteen years ago) link

The Katie Melua-ish 'Eclipse' and 'Bum Like You' made me think 'acoustic(k)y' and the latter might as well be acoustic - drums are ok but is it really worth having these and 'Should Have Known' (nice beat but eeeh ohterwise) on the album? they all seem to be about the same boring thing. These and 'Robotboy' are just too cheesy for me, despite other emotionally vulnerable-or whatever moments on 'Be Mine', 'Who's That Girl' working just fine.

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Thursday, 12 January 2006 13:55 (eighteen years ago) link

tht 'oh god it ain't right' in bum like you (?) is my favourite line from last year

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 12 January 2006 14:04 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't hear any twaddle nor much acousticy nevermind in combination

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 12 January 2006 14:05 (eighteen years ago) link

the same boring thing : (

don't think there's an "oh", cozen, but yeah

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 12 January 2006 14:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Robyn has done well to cater to an audience who want different things.

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Thursday, 12 January 2006 14:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Now although she says it with a toying menace that implies "sayoonara",
doesn't "konichiwa" actually mean "good afternoon"?

'Good afternoon, bitches!' - only makes me love the track more.

― Catherine Ryan (and so this is catherine), Thursday, 12 January 2006 21:23 (eighteen years ago) link

a reference to the comedian dave chappelle, catherine

Here's where you can watch Robyn's performance on the P3 (=radio channel) awards (21/1 2006). She's doing a duet with The Ark's Ola Salo and then some medley thing with bits of Buffalo Stance (Nene Cherry) and Got to Get (Leyla K).
It's at the end, about 1,47 hours into the show.

thanks for the links, lisa lipstick!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 20:27 (eighteen years ago) link

someone should definitely rip that video before it disappears

― sovietpanda (sovietpanda), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 10:53 (eighteen years ago) link

I just walked into the nearby deli and Be Mine was playing on Heart FM! Ergo, Robyn will be massive.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Friday, 27 January 2006 13:31 (eighteen years ago) link

I made an MP3 of the list of demands, if anyone wants it

gotta trim off the presenter's bit in the beginning, though

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 27 January 2006 14:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Could you YSI the mp3 please?

― Laney (Laneyje), Friday, 27 January 2006 17:01 (eighteen years ago) link

will do when I've got home and trimmed

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 27 January 2006 17:35 (eighteen years ago) link

Popjustice is reporting that Robyn has recorded a track with Basement Jaxx. Discuss.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:52 (eighteen years ago) link

Can somebody re-up the "List Of Demands" mp3 please?

― Ben (crispyben), Thursday, 16 February 2006 13:47 (eighteen years ago) link

I'll email it to you, Ben.

― sean gramophone (Sean M), Thursday, 16 February 2006 13:51 (eighteen years ago) link

whoops, never mind, don't have it in my email account any more. sorry!

― sean gramophone (Sean M), Thursday, 16 February 2006 13:52 (eighteen years ago) link

Robyn's career has died because it has been taken over by the media whores and music industry nazis.

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Thursday, 16 February 2006 14:26 (eighteen years ago) link

two months pass...

If someone wants to watch ALL of Robyn's videos (3 from the latest album) + a some more, and full clips from several TV-shows in total there should be around 3 hours w. Robyn
www.Robyn.Makes.It

― Alexander Buster, Saturday, 22 April 2006 04:55 (eighteen years ago) link

I can vouch for robyn.makes.it - it is the best source for robyn stuff in my opinion! apparently there's some rival robyn board that's been making trouble with them, but i don't know what its address is.

― Tracey Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 23 April 2006 06:04 (eighteen years ago) link

The Cat5 remix of 'Be Mine' is fantastic. I think it's time for a whole thread devoted to these mysterious Swedish pop makers..
