Our best track 2010: Robyn - dancing on my own

In 2010, the single charts got officially in the Club. JLS, the Club was alive with the sound of music during Flo Rida, that found the Club could not even handle it."It was the club where will.I.am was messed with the thickest chicks and where the DJ Kelly Rowland safe - kept, celebrate not to forget that "until late Hella".Beats deleted Shawtys pumped on dance floors and "VIP" was to be definitely a jolly place.

Club-based inanities was the top 10 new obsession, but these songs, by millions of school children too young to even considered fake IDs, order purchased Club tracks for people that was never clubbing have - fat, nightlife were grotesque caricatures of a lowest common denominator that exists in the real world.

Robyn's own contribution to this genre was the defensive line - and it was a complete triumph. Robyn is not at the Club with a party hard crew hell bent on a night of prey and Bodyshots dancing to manual; It is alone on the dance floor by the masochistic need to see your ex with his new flame drawn. As evenings go, it's a little light on fun: "I am in the corner watching you, Kiss" Robyn sings. "I'm right over here, why can't you see me?" "I give it my all, but I'm not the girl to take home are."

With its air subdued Act of defiance dancing on my own seems like the perfect anthem for crap evenings and a classic example of what Neil Tennant (who knows a thing or two about this area of the pop Tuneage) refers to "Tears in the toilets" material. Dancing on my own is the irresistible sound of heartbreak on the dancefloor, bleak solitude in a room of the euphoric night owls.

Robyn is, of course, no stranger to this area. There are here echoes of 2005's be mine!, with view in-the-ex-texts, with ABBA's angeleyes: "I saw your arm had to you at the station / you what your name / you had on that I gave you scarf." Robyn was in 2007 the poster girl for Emotronic pop misery about surprise no. 1 with every heartbeat.

At least with every heartbeat was grim optimistic. Unlike them, despite their danceable BPM dancing on my own relentless downbeat, offers no hope that things can get better. In fact, as the song unfolds things get even worse a middle eight that offers the perfect vignette of a bad night bad ends with you. "So far, but still so close," Robyn sighs as drop-removed the beats. "The lights go on the music dies, but as you see, here me." And then the killer blow: "I just came to say goodbye."

But is that everything is dancing to manual it? Well, not exactly - the mixes took Rex the dog and Fred Falke both the electro pop production in pleasant new directions. But there is more to the lyrics than the first few hundred listen could leave.

The thing is, we all love Robyn: sad little Robyn disco robot with your wonky teeth and interesting hairstyles. Unlucky-in-love your winsome hopes for true happiness and Robyn. And because we love you and you from the Club to save and you enter non-sexual cuddle and her say, one day OK to be convenient - like friends - ignore the fact that you as a total nightmare ex behaves.

For a start sound the psycho siren - consider the malevolent undertone of the first verse: "There are a large black sky over my city." I, where you are, I bet is white you around. "Robyn has made a night purely to where your ex boyfriend with his new partner position is planned." Cut to verse two and make this ex's shoes. Are a fun evening with your new friend but be careful - here comes Robyn, sour and melodramatic. "I'm only gonna dance all night" howls you drunken provision thousand Hen Parties. "I'm all messed up, I'm so out of line." "Stilettos and defective bottles I'm to turn in circles." Basically, has her head on Breezers way, it is windmilling, the dance floor and everyone "why can not you see me?" you are even more is deliberately ignored by everyone in the room. Security has alarmed.

Robyn as nightmare read seems even tragic is the wrong Robyn approach, until you, recognize it is there is nothing that ever actually with this guy ever out went Robyn. She can simply a stalker - a crazy written one will cause day serious damage.

At the beginning of the year Robyn told the song of the clubbing came to see other people and have a question which was released for the night. "All these people," said you "with their hopes and their dreams about their great nights out."

A prelude to an injunction or a heartwarming story of love and loss, an extraordinary addition is Robyn's Canon of distorted love songs dancing on my own; thoughtful and romantic want to hear enough for stuck on repeat but with a pop sensibility that makes you head looking after a dance floor. (See if any of your friends are before you go, although it will be garbage itself.)
