I'm really not getting the hate this seems to be getting :( It's a fantastic album and all of the tracks are major growers. :(

I agree. ;o It's wonderful.

The album has grown on me so much! 'Dancing On My Own' is fastly becoming one of my favourite songs of the year!

 

'Body Talk, Pt. 2' is going to be released on August 2nd. Quite soon after Pt. 1!

I thought that too when I saw the release date! I guess if she's releasing three albums this year she'd better get a move on though.

Can't wait for pt. 2. Like you, 'Dancing on My Own' is one of my favourite songs of the year. Currently battling it out with 'Massive Attack' and 'XXXO'!

It makes me wonder if we are going to get another single from Pt. 1 though, since it's only two months between Pt. 1 and Pt. 2.

We're only getting one official single per Body Talk album, Robyn herself said in a Swedish magazine interview

Love this :) DOMO, NOD and CWYGO are all amazing

Wise move - I love the album but don't think there is really a strong 2nd single on it. I love how Robyn does things so differently - Releasing 3 albums in a matter of months is quite a risk for overall sales of each but will hopefully also give her 3 hit singles from each part.

I didn't even realise this had been released! :o

I just saw it in HMV today, nearly died!

Cry When You Get Older is just lush :heart:

I had no idea this was out already! i bought it and i loveee it! shame she's only doing one single as id love to see Cry When You Get Older as a single.

got this after school today from hmv.

first listen rate:

 

08 ➝ Don't Fucking Tell Me What To Do - I'd have scored it lower if it weren't for the amazing last 30 seconds. :wub: could be better though.

09 ➝ Fembot - it's a grower tbh. from when it first leaked I thought it was so dull, now I love it, especially the chorus.

10 ➝ Dancing On My Own - clearly :wub: brilliant lead single. probably my third favourite single of hers, behind the immense 'handle me' and 'be mine'.

09 ➝ Cry When You Get Older - this is great, quite feel good.

10 ➝ Dancehall Queen - wow! this is excellent, that chorus :wub: loved it from when it leaked really, but still. reminds me a little of lily allen 'never gonna happen'.

09 ➝ None of Dem (ft. Royksopp) - pretty good. I'd say it's the most danciest song on the album.

so far, it's awesome. one of the albums of the year imo, shame there's going to be no more singles from it. can't wait for the next two parts. :heart:

Hang With Me is beautiful.

Yessss :wub: The best song for me on the record :D

Yeah, Hang With Me really shows how versatile Robyn is. It's just absolutely goregous.

Fembot. :wub:

 

Any news on the 2nd single from this album yet?

Fembot. :wub:

we probably won't get one. part 2 is out end of august...

Saw her last night, there was a sign saying they were going to be filming and footage of the crowd might be used in the next video. But yeah, we met her afterwards (where they also asked if they could film us) and she said there wasn't going to be a second single from this album. I'm not sure what that means exactly, why would they be using gig footage for the next video if she didn't perform anything from the next album?!

 

But if there was one song from the current album that seemed the most likely to be used for a video it was "None Of Dem". It was the only song she walked down the steps on either side of the stage and danced by the barriers for. Excited fans = better video.

 

Anyway, she was brilliant, if a little rusty. She totally mimed "Don't f***ing Tell Me What To Do", don't think she's quite learned the lyrics yet! She also got a bit lost with the lyrics on "Be Mine!" and "Dream On" too. Apart from that she's totally amazing, she's got such an energy and her dancing typically crazy. She was the same when we met her. I have a photo with her and she signed my ticket. :wub:

 

Cry When You Get Older

 

Dream On: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMcH5IZnS_M

The Girl And The Robot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIcQ_QtDzLo (so pleased she did this :wub:)

None Of Dem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZ-raPVatSo (only got 2 minutes of this, but she spent most of it not singing anyway)

 

Oh. We also don't like I Blame Coco. Why would you support Robyn, someone you have a song with, and not sing it with her? Perhaps she's a busy girl but the setlist had "Caesar" listed as a 'TBC' encore and Robyn told us it didn't happen because Coco left? Instead she did it on her own. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6jWaIiMxBo
