Robyn Won’t Do Three Albums In A Year Again

spoke with London’s Absolute Radio backstage at Glastonbury 2011. The Swedish pop singer talked about her shoes, what the experience playing the prestigious festival for the second time is like, having no big production for the festival show, believing chart music should be good, having lots of going out songs, performing an unusual gig at JFK Airport, being a big fan of London, and some of her hotel preferences.

“I don’t think I’ll ever make three albums in one year again,” Robyn said when asked about her upcoming schedule, referring to her ‘Body Talk’ trilogy. “It was great, and I wish I could, but I’ve been touring more than I thought I would, so I haven’t been able to go back in the studio yet. But I do want to keep releasing shorter albums and releasing more often.”

Robyn ‘Call Your Girlfriend’ Video Behind The Scenes

Go behind the scenes with on the set of her “one-take” video for ‘Call Your Girlfriend’. In a clip, shared her experience filming the video and introduced the world to her Swedish friends and fellow musicians Rebecca and Fiona, who joined her on the set.

“I worked on my moves for about a week, and hopefully it’s gonna be one take,” Robyn says in the video. “This song is about love between two people, but there’s three people involved.”

“We didn’t know if we were going to be able to do a one-take video when we set out to shoot ‘Call Your Girlfriend,’” Robyn tells Spinner. “However, it turned out great and I’m really happy it did because I think it captures a little bit of what I do when I play live. And that’s something I’ve been doing a lot lately and it’s been an amazing way to connect to my audience this year. I hope you like it.”

‘Call Your Girlfriend’ appears on Robyn’s album ‘Body Talk’, available on iTunes now via Cherrytree Records. Watch the footage below.

Sarah Jaffe Covers ‘Hang With Me’ By Robyn

Folk newcomer Sarah Jaffe offered her own interpretation of ’s ‘Hang With Me’ for this week’s Mashup Monday on Billboard.com. “There were a lot of favorites that rotated,” Jaffe said about the Swedish artist’s ‘Body Talk’ series. “But ‘Hang With Me’ just kind of stuck. I just love that song. The chorus in particular, the way I heard it, I thought it could make a really sweet and kind of sad folk song. The chords are easy and I like really simple chords that allow the vocal melody to carry the song.”

Watch it below. The Denton, Texas native released her debut full-length album ‘Suburban Nature’ last year and is currently touring in support of the release across the country on a tour that runs through August.
