  1. With Body Talk Pt 1 she's ready to finally take her place at pop's top table of greats. For once, the sequel can't some soon enough.
  2. Immaculately produced, fantastically sung, and loaded with memorable choruses, this eight-song effort has plenty to please everyone from post-dubstep crate diggers to teen tweeters-- often at the same time.
  3. The good tracks on 'Body Talk' are of such a high quality that it definitely makes it worthwhile to check this album out but you are soon left with a feeling that the subsequent releases in this series will cobble together one amazing album and one really bad one.

  1. Robyn definitely brings the best back on "Body Talk Pt. 1" The best song ont eh album is "Dancing on My Own". The lyrics and synths are hot and the accoustic version of "Hang With Me" is the best!!! Expand

    Robyn is the Queen of pop. Every song talks with a different tone, a different mood. The best little piece of pop tis year. By single tracks Swedes don't do it more and more often: The Knife, The Radio Dept, The Tough Alliance, Marit Bergman, Soundtrack of Our Lives, I'm From Barcelona, Fibes, Oh Fibes, Sout It Out Louds... But many albums would be alright with less tracks. Eight is just enough to play them over and over again. I want a great dancehall version of Dancing On My Own. Please let it be on part 2. Expand
