I think it's a shame she is not more popular.

"Show Me Love" was okay, but I never was much on Max Martin. Oddly enough, that first album is all American audiences know her for.

I followed her from 'Robyn' onwards, and she is brilliant. Very very underrated. She has some of the catchiest electronic songs out there.

Well, at least the album is far better than ...Baby One More Time ! :lol:

It is so 90s, and even then you could see Robyn's 'cool and edgy but effortless at the same time' style.
My most favorite song from it is actually a non-single called "Just Another Girlfriend". The beats are so cool and it's just so groovy. I love it.

I quite like Show Me Love & Do You Know What It Takes, I don't care if they're cheesy, I still enjoy listening to them! Discovered them both via some American Top 40 thingy I used to listen to back in the 90's, but didn't follow her again after that until Robyn came out a few years ago. Good album that one.

I'm a Robyn fan!

I loved her from Show Me Love to now.

My favorite cd from Robyn is the little known My Truth....

This is the song Lady Gaga wish she had.

I am rediscovering her again! I've been a fan of Robyn Is Here, but her music just failed to breakthrough in Asia after that album!

Her voice is amazing!!! :D

I saw her live in Dusseldorf during Sticky & Sweet Tour but wasn't interested much in her. But after the Body Talk project, i definitely want to see her again.

I'm loving her old school tracks: Show Me Love, Do You Really Want Me, and My Only Reason!

Her best tracks before she went electro-pop.

Listen to her Coldplay coverversion Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall from the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge. It is great.
