this is a fucking huge banger, incredible choice for a second track on an album, following fembot as well! what a killer one-two to open up with AND THEN the best song ever written. robyn’s a genius

Cheers, Funk! I’ve been driving to and from Wales over the last two days so haven’t had the chance to post in this thread but I voted. I voted hard.

This is how all festivals should work. Bands on similar HGATR scores on the same day

Radiohead/Supremes, Pulp/Public Enemy/Sleater Kinney, Pixies/ Leonard Cohen. Solid idea, that.

Im not sure why i like this so much but i do

Think it has to do with robyns kinda sharp yet lackadaisical flow

Two more personal robservations. One thing I sometimes enjoy doing is singing the words to Dancing On My Own in a Nick Cave voice to the melody of Into My Arms. It fits quite well or at least does in my head.

Also, when I listen to Be Mine, sometimes the line ‘You Never Were and You Never Will Be Mine’ comes across as a rueful lamentation because Robyn wishes the subject was hers, other times an angry assertation to somebody who wants Robyn to be theirs. Changes the feel of the song depending which meaning I hear. Top song writing that.

Almost voted for Be Mine! on the strength of this dirty af remix alone

but went for WEH because it’s one of the best songs ever made.

Easy 5.
Easiest 5 of the entire series so far in fact.
