Robyn Quotes

I think I'm always adopting a persona. That's how I look at pop music. I don't feel like I have to be myself. I feel like I have to be true to myself, but I don't have to show an exact picture of who I am.
I think it's amazing when technology is used in a smart way, but the responsibility that comes with it... I think there's a lot of technology that we're using that we haven't thought through. It's a bit scary to put all your trust in technology and to think that that's what going to save us. We're going to have to make some compromises.
I think that girls are always expected to have opinions about each other, and maybe I don't have an opinion about some things, you know?
I'd always been a club kid, so I was totally unaware that people had their own record companies.
It wasn't easy for me to socialize with other kids when I got back from touring. I felt different. Like we all do, but I didn't feel like I got all the codes. I was a little awkward.
It's called A Secret Gig because where and how it's taking place won't be revealed.
My friends who are not from Sweden tell me that I'm more reserved or maybe more ... I guess the opposite of what a Latin American would be. Maybe because Scandinavians are more careful with their words and I guess it takes a lot to become a friend of a Swede.
Sure the Internet is the future, but what we do on the Internet is still very primal.
Sure, the Internet is the future, but what we do on the Internet is still very primal. It's all about connecting to other people, sharing emotion. It's our new feathers or face paint. It's all very raw.
That excitement of how music makes you want to dance - that's what got me back into it, and that's what 'Honey' is about. Me just being able to enjoy myself again.
The marketing is just as important as the music, almost.
The music industry used to be able to control a single dance on the very smallest level of when people are supposed to hear it, and when they're supposed to start liking it, and when they're supposed to start buying it. And that's trashed, you know, that big machine that takes control and works albums for a long period.
To me, dance music is a lot of space - to listen to other things than melodies. I think club music and dance music really require a different way of listening.
When I say dance music, it's anything that makes me want to dance. It could be Timbaland and Missy Elliott, but it could also be disco music and samba music: It's not relying on melody in the same way; it's more about rhythm.
When you become famous super young, you learn how to behave by the rules because you're the one that has to take the stress. But that also creates a barrier that I really didn't want.
When you're 17 and you have an idea, people don't really listen to you. I came out of an environment where my parents were always pushing me to do what I wanted and be creative, and I was not used to the industry's way of thinking.
When you're listening to club music, there's no reward. The reward isn't, 'Oh, here's the chorus, here's the lyric that makes sense.' You have to enjoy what it is. You have to enjoy that there's no conclusion.
