I snagged Body Talk, Pt. 1 from Amazon on Tuesday while it was still on sale for $5 and i’m pretty much in love with it already. Robyn is a Swedish singer/songwriter whom you may recognize for a couple of pop hits she had in the late ’90s, namely Show Me Love and Do You Know (What It Takes). Since those days her style has evolved from pop into more of a hip-hop/electropop infusion. (“Infusion” is one of our favorite words lately, by the way.) I’m already excited for Body Talk Pt. 2 to come out, and i’m also going to get her last album (self-titled, c. 2007) A.S.A.P. Take a listen to Dancing On My Own, a track that’s less on the hip-hop side and more dance-y.

I loved Robyn in HS so much!
Anyways… I am glad you posted about Eat, Pray, Love below. I never really had any interest in it either. (and I actually have some religious beliefs) I will say, even though I probably won’t see the movie or buy the book… I really recommend the album from the trailer. The song “Dog Days Are Over” by Florence and the Machine is only one of several good songs on her album called “Lungs”. (If you like that sort of thing. Maybe preview it on itunes).

Florence and the Machine have a pretty unique sound… I’ve heard a few tracks via Last.fm and i haven’t really gotten into them, but i’ll try anything twice.
