'Jack You Off' oh my lol.

 

Never heard this one in full but loved/liked 4 of the singles I know. Should be worth listening to on Thursday ^_^

Be Mine! is just so nostalgic for me :wub:

Be Mine :wub: Handle Me :wub: Not a fan of Konichiwa Bitches!

I love this album! Started my obsession with her, although it was the Swedish release that originally got me hooked… the UK version is good though and I haven’t listened to it in ages so will try to join the synctube session

 

I like Girls Aloud version of "With Every Heartbeat".

I’ve only heard Be Mine and With Every Heartbeat, but both are very good.

Ooh a classic <3 Not sure I'm around Thurs eve but I shall enjoy relistening to this to give full thoughts at some point.

An absolute classic. Whew — the amount of hits on here.

Think we should play 'Dream On' as well on Thursday. Great track that was!

I think 'Who's That Girl' is the unbeatable single :wub:

Think we should play 'Dream On' as well on Thursday. Great track that was!

Agreed! We could do the ‘red’ version of the album

What time is this happening tomorrow Wardy?

Am in. We're playing some songs before it starts ^_^

Joining too.

'Bum Like You' is really catchy. Liked 'Cobrastyle' too. 'Be Mine' on now :wub: forgot this wasn't the follow up to 'With Every Heartbeat' though.

Eclipse shows how versatile Robyn is as an artist, it's a moving album track. The singles were great from this album.
