Rockin' Robyn

Back in the 90s, one of the most popular songs that they played in the disco (yes, that's what they were called back then,) was a song entitled "Do you really want me." Once this ditty was played, you can expect a flood of people on the dance floor.



The song was sung by a breakthrough artist from Sweden named Robyn. Believe it or not, she was just 16 years old when she released this single. Needless to say, it propelled her to pop star status in her home country, and all around the world.

At 18, she sang "Show me love," which fast became another favorite chill-dance hit. It would be safe to say that everyone from my generation knows this song.



As she grew older, so did her sound. While she stayed true to her electronica roots, her voice has matured, and so has the themes and lyrics of her songs. One of her hit songs from her 2010 album was "Dancing on my own." It's a song that showed a grittier side of Robyn, which I enjoyed.



After 15 years of making music, Robyn has definitely changed in terms of sound and songs. But one thing hasn't changed. She still rocks!
