Album Notes Robyn's self-titled record marks the Swedish pop singer's remarkable return to international attention roughly 11 years following her gigantic hit, "Show Me Love." Released in 2005 in Sweden, the exquisitely crafted pop record slowly gained momentum through an unexpected abundance of critical praise and a flurry of singles. By 2007, ROBYN earned distribution around the globe. As with Pink and Kylie Minogue, there is something deeper and darker going on beneath the sheen of dance-pop on the diverse ROBYN. Singles like "With Every Heartbeat" and "Be Mine" channel Kate Bush but with a speedier beat, while the almost surreal "Konichiwa Bitches" finds the singer striking a whispered hip-hop pose. The 2007 release contains the bonus track, the electronic hip-hop of "Cobrastyle." | |||||||||||
Reviews If you like Robyn's singles, you'll love this album. I'm usually into much heavier stuff than this, but it is so 80's that it brings back all of my early Depeche Mode / Yazoo memories. Bearing in mind that Robyn has been belting out these songs since the mid-nineties, I'm surprised that she isn't more successful. Think Gwen Stefani...but with talent. Her sassy lyrics and catchy synth and basslines make this an excellent album. Read her Wiki page, she is an ultra talented artist with her own record label. Top album especially 'Who's that Girl ?' - That reminds me, didn't another great blonde singer have a very different hit with the same title !!!!!

Report this review Review created: 13/05/08 by: My 15 year old daughter absolutely loved this CD - within a matter of days she has every song word perfect and is singing it all over the house. Some very strong language and rude stuff too though. Good music overall. Review ID: 10000000007148260 Was this review helpful?
