it's been a week since i saw robyn take on the stage of new york's hammerstein ballroom and though it came a few days after the madonna gig, i have to admit that i'm still buzzing over how amazing this swedish gal is live. providing a pimp swagger mixed in with mae west commentary ("i can see that many of you have good taste... that's because you're here to see me"...wink! wink!), the best part of her performance is the fact that girlfriend can really sing. so in celebration of my continued adoration of robyn, may i present a bucketload of goodies for the day:
robyn - bum like you
[what a random irony free performance recorded when robyn went down to texas for sxsw. the crowd seemed to get into the song and now i think i'll need to learn how to two-step for my next appearance at a club.]
robyn - message in a bottle (police cover)
[part of the b-side for her current single "who's that girl"]
robyn - be mine (aol sessions)
[robyn ended her concert with this same spared down version of this heart on sleeve anthem. this is taken off the wonderful aol sessions that she performed last month. gorgeous!]
robyn - show me love (aol sessions)
[blast from the past! i've always been a fan of robyn's soulful voice and this classic track is a great example of her talents. wish she would do an acoustic version of "do you know (what it takes)" one day. btw, don't you think the opening notes would be a great ringtone?]
