Röyksopp ft Robyn - The Girl & The Robot [HQ Video]

[IAINoodle]

judy dench never looked so fine

[SiriuslyRedCloud]

What a cute robot!

[Jarren202]

Royksopp just keep getting better and better, and with Robyn it's a match made in heaven.

Their last album, Senior, is amazing if you like downtempo stuff like AIR and Jean Michel Jarre.

[Monsterist76]

Better than anything Gaga's ever done.

[danno700]

Royksopp? (Forgive my UK keyboard) Robyn? Two of the greatest artists and groups currently making music. Why Robyn isn't as big as Katy Perry or Taylor Swift is beyond me. The woman's been knocking them out of the park since 1997.

[djade76]

@danno700 - I absolutely Agree! Being a DJ for 15 years, I can see the problem, Robyn's tunes don't have the same throwaway appeal that has the mill churning out songs for a few weeks of living in the charts.. Royksopp are the same - of course some slip through the net, but robyn's songs have longevity, Sh'es been on the go since mid 90's, and still going strong. Taylor swift, Katy perry, even Lady Gaga wont last that long. I absolutely love this tune.

[cathina22]

i hardly comment on youtube video but this song is just so beautiful, very catchy from the beginning yet so sad. i love how the lyrics are real and truthful.

[macalauresmuse]

This song is just about perfect! Robyn has such an amazing voice that fits perfectly with the music.... so lovely.

[purecorkboy06]

Robyn is one of the best if not the best European singers there is today! I've been a fan since Show Me Love. She is an icon to me

[ctotheq]

this is one of the most underrated videos on youtube

[000MYSZ999]

she's so pretty!

[ammorreztristar]

Great song-one of her best.

[averyps]

39 dislikes? Do these people not have ears?

[TheTechnoToast]

@averyps what?

[ammorreztristar]

One of her best songs yet, really good :)

[pssstwatchthis]

This is totally like my story, except it was with a real guy.

[skinnypuppy75]

@pssstwatchthis You like guys who spray plants eh? :)

[pssstwatchthis]

European pop + Korean pop >>> American pop music. The end.

[OMG26]

This is exactly how i pictured this music video would be! ... kinda.

[Loweysd]

Hey... Everyone hating on America... Fuck off! There would be no electro without America. Actually... come to think of it, beside 'Classical Music' (which I think is amazing, btw) America and the UK sorta set the stage for musical revolutions and advancements throughout the world.

While I think American-electro as a whole, in addition to some other genres, has been eclipsed by other nation's progress, why must so many people hate? Don't bring politics into this discussion -- it's not warranted

[jesserai]

@Loweysd

finally some one who doesn't speak out of their ass on here, thank you for your comment. Hopefully you've furthered the enlightenment of these genius non-North Americans

[djade76]

@Loweysd - America hasn't had much do with electro but in past few years has been impressive, UK and German music in the 80's is where it's at, Gary Numan, Kraftwerk, Human League, New Order - All pioneers of electro music and all European - I'm not dissing America, America without doubt has had a massive influence in rock music of the world, and no doubt is the original home of hip hop and rap, and Detroit in the 90's had a Techno scene which was hard to equal - even in Europe.

[morganobanana]

i love this song!!!!! i discovered royksopp ages ago but it doesn't get old



[JOSEPH4CAT]

This song is SO MUCH BETTER than this video. What happen????

[SkogenWhisper]

@JOSEPH4CAT indeed wat happen, they could have done aloooot more with the song. Oh well, still an -amazing- song

[lessthenpaul]

FUCKING HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mackerz91]

This was soooo sweet live last summer... sunset, fresh air, Royksopp. AND one of them dressed as the robot. WIN!

[TheDaneses]

And yet in the UK they take reason (music program) classes in high school while american producers learn on there own so any american dubstep artist electro artist has my respect for their dedication to learn it and make it without help so fuck off america isnt just about hip hop and rap so take your own advice and piss off

[0thevushi0]

she's beautiful, the robot doesn't deserve her.

[petitecolierr]

America?

sorry but America is a continent

not a country

america for the americans?

.. i mean

get over the stupid monroe doctrine.

PS: amazing song , there are many robots out there.

[INDIEbritain]

@petitecolierr Your obviously the stupid one.

America is a country in the continent 'The Americas'

And they're wrecking the music industry for europeans.

[variety927]

Please don't group Americans into that category. It's insulting.

[BlaineDeckard]

Great Song! I heard it by first time in "CSI: NY", in "Grounds for Deception" (season 5, episode 24) and I liked it very much. It cools!

[ahmettaygunnamli]

scandinavians rules about music \m/ 

[cloakedpanic]

I'm also sick of the "america this" or "america that" everyone needs to chill and just enjoy the music, if you dont like it, fuck off... simple

[calyx93]

Love them - love her. Scandinavian music is really doing it for me - vastly better than the pre-fab crap out there.

[animegirl2121]

Godddd i love this song! i thought it was new hearing it on NME today.. i guess not haha.

[veado1969]

She sang this in NYC and was THE BEST.

[Reyumaster]

Thank god she issnt pregnant!!! :P

[LuminousGuy]

I want to be a robot !

[lilteacupboi]

the robot has the same phone as me, WIN!

[2uMRAsh]

@lilteacupboi yeah me too also in outkast video :D

[lonelylips]

can't we all just love and let live... ;)

or are we all in love with robots???.....

[drkraid]

not gonna lie, i have no idea what's going on in this video

[Tkn25]

@drkraid who cares, the music is awesome :D

[shawnrudiman]

this is exactly what pop music should be now. 100% perfect artistic package. genius on all aspects.

[merlin2k6]

no robot babies then!

[NoirFemme]

I am in looooove with this song. It's so sexy and haunting.

[furey2310]

great song,the fan video of it was much better.robyn looks gorgeous though :-)

[ConorrrSTEWART]

how could i have forgotten how good this song is!!! :O actually amazing! thank you Scandinavia!

[iamzexy]

Love this song!!!!

[embrya79]

This is out of this world. Robyn and Royksopp collaboration = ORGASM

[SydVicious2000]

I link this everyday because Royksopp is my Lady Gaga- I bow and worship the pretty!

[mikeytomm100]

HaHa. that robot will be Peter Crouch after the world cup, lol. good tune this

[MissWhoreMKW]

gosh....this songs...make me remember about my sexy wife who is waiting for me <3

[Missmamita03]

@MissWhoreMKW

"I go mental everytime you leave to New York, you never seem to know when to stop, I never know when you'll return, I'm inlove with a... whore? O_o"

[Xynne]

@Missmamita03 ....no. "I'm in love with a robot"

[Missmamita03]

@Xynne

xDDDDDD

noob

[MissWhoreMKW]

@Missmamita03 IM IN LOVE WITH MY WIFE (h)

[piliguill]

techno-magical song!great!

[Riskiamo]

Totally love it.

[BulletRain7]

Blergh -_- I listen to everything,I know many europeans and they listening to aLOT of american music as well as many americans listen to european music *unconciesly* to me DnB is the best type of electronic music there is and it is highly made in america and in europe. Why do most Americans And Russians hate each other so much? BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO MUCH DAMN PRIDE OF THEIR COUNTRY. Just my opinion really . All that I know is that the woman in the video had sex with a robot O.O xD!!!!

[syd32vicious]

I think the video is hinting at artificial insemination and has Electric Barbarella all over it. In our quest for the perfect technology we are creating a wold where the individual doesn't matter as much as long as perform our assigned function in society.

I think the lyrics are about a woman in love with a workaholic. Alot of Royksopp's lyrics seem to center on nostalgia for a simpler, calmer, button free, less mechanical time. ( funny 'cuz they play super sweet ass electronica)

[Tiogshi]

@syd32vicious I wouldn't go so far as to say "nostalgia for a simpler, calmer, button-free, less mechanical time". But I would say a great deal of their songs convey and discuss the idea of longing and hope... and many of them simultaneously lament and praise the beauty of memory.

For example: contrast "Poor Leno" versus "Only this Moment"; the video for "Eple" versus the video for "Happy Up Here"; or even "49 Percent" versus this song.

[simoilsocio]

troppo bella sta canzone... <3

[gga1967nice]

Brilliant

It reminds me of Hairstyle of the Devil by Momus

[gga1967nice]

Brilliant

It reminds me of Hairstyle of the Devil by Momus

[littleuniverse]

Great track and been playing "Junior" a hell of alot lately. Would rather have seen Karin in the video!! ;-)

[tbazic87]

I actually had higher expectations for this video... I was under the impression that Robyn was "Metaphorically" in love with a robot. IE a boring husband... But I guess i was wrong... Its an actual robot! lol. Oh well, I love this song anyway.

[piliguill]

very greatttt

[Pacmandarin]

I wish my friend hadn't shown me this.

This video is disappointing.

[EternalKing18]

A robot doing The Rbot haha!

[Snakebloke]

chooooon!

[ammorreztristar]

Pretty cool .

[Aki65]

I love this song and I love the way they tell the story of a the human girl (aka: Robyn) obsession and love of her robot. who knows, when time goes by and robots become part of our daily lives some people will fall in love with their robots, with or without skin XD anyways I love it!

X3

[CHRIS9696969]

great song! and very under rated :(

[TheSmask]

i remember..savage, don t cry tonight

[Deanocfc]

america is too involved with itself to look at european music. i have friends there and european dance, drum and bass, dubstep, electro etc is so small...they are missing out big time with their chris brown, lady gaga, beyonce.

[Descansan]

lol american music is ruining everything, hip-hop/rap used to have a meaning and used to be about life's problems and how people pushed through those problems to succeed. Now its all about clubs, having "swagga", sex, and "making it rain". And the end this, autotune has made it easy for anyone to make millions of dollars because so many people of the new generation don't know what real music is.......PZ

[Deanocfc]

@Descansan exactly, it's a shame that it's going that way but proper music is still around, it's just harder to find. Zane Lowe on Radio 1, UK station, is brilliant for playing top, new music.

[manlove007]

@Descansan

hahahahahh "making it rain" made me laugh. darned rappers... lol

[Zoza15]

Agreed, and thats the power of Mainstream Mate..

[mreese1]

i agree so much... i'm American but i hate the direction music is going thats why i'm listening to this but i need more!!!

[silversunned]

that's why I listen to Indie music! XD XD I've found many awesome bands that are struggling because the mian-stream is to powerful and mind bending for them to make it up, a few that I listen to are managing it like silversun pickups and Interpol, but the rest are still struggiling to make it (that's why I love them because they always have unique sounds and aren't afraid to be different! XD)

[tbazic87]

I hate when people generalize! Saying "American" music is ruining everything, is a pretty broad statement. Now, if you were to say that American Hip Hop/Rap is fucking ridiculously horrible, then I would agree wholeheartedly. I don't care for that genre of music enough to be concerned with the fact that it doesn't mean anything anymore. And yes, the new generation has no idea what good music is, but its not their fault.

[Ikkitousenfan]

@Descansan Agreed. America's music sucks to the point where I only listen to international. Well, mostly international. I keep looking and SOMETIMES find a good group... maybe.

[SkogenWhisper]

@Descansan HAHA 'makin it rain'

you hit the nail on the head though :)

[nickmoran1]

@Descansan you should turn off Mtv and find something more interesting then

[stevenuuu1212]

@Descansan I know, how can you compare Wu Tang's C.R.E.A.M to any of Jason DeRulo's shit!?

[Ginasarah2009]

I agree with you. I think some people have the capacity to like a diverse amount of muisc and some are not.

[HOT2MANIC]

@Deanocfc

i SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AGREE!!!!!!

and i live in l.a......LOL robyn is AWESOME

[babymuthasrgoincrazy]

@Deanocfc lady gaga is actually helping push european styles into the american mainstream, as her music is much more influenced by european electro and dance than any american hip hop. but americans DO need to listen to more european original music

[Zoza15]

@babymuthasrgoincrazy Will never happen, Lady Gaga has plenty of fans, but the core at Trance and progressive elektronica will always remain Here..

But indeed Americans should listen what the Artists here has to offer, i can call up many for ya..

[natefizzel]

@Deanocfc Thats true the euro-dance/electronica scene isn't big in the US yet but don't group all americans into "too involved with itself" Ive been listening to this kind of music for quite awhile now and LOVE IT!! (I ordered the first Röyksopp CD a month after it came out) and yes, unfortunately our mainstream music doesn't include these genres but not all americans are as ignorant as I think you assume:)

[Deanocfc]

@natefizzel

Lol Americans always take things so literally.

[Zoza15]

@natefizzel Not all including yourself, But sadly the most are blinded by GAGA's Pokerface..

[justim12]

@Deanocfc i agree with you and i am american

[shutyourmouth2]

@Deanocfc That's one of the reasons I wish I lived in Europe instead of the U.S. :)

Luckily, though, this kind of music is growing in popularity over here.

[michaeldp0]

@Deanocfc I'm a yank in the UK... Had to say you right about that

[727RUDEBOY]

@Deanocfc fuck european music and fuck you

[Zoza15]

@727RUDEBOY Fuck you! and your shit american RAP motherfuckah!!..

Even British Grime Rap sounds appealing than your Garbage..

[727RUDEBOY]

@Zoza15 go kill yourself faggot

[Zoza15]

@727RUDEBOY Bang!, you know that im right you cocksucker!..

Pathetic piece of shit!.

1 day you will see what humanity is all about.

In other words, get the fuck outta your ghetto and seek for work you lazy fuck!.

[2uMRAsh]

@Zoza15 no no no grime is dire! Esp when played on the bus out of phone speakers by 14yr old dickheads in hoodies smoking cheap biftas!!

[cloakedpanic]

@Deanocfc i'm from america and i dont listen to shitty music, so its unfair to associate all of america with a generalized assumption, next time stfu and stop being so judgemental

[Deanocfc]

@cloakedpanic

obviously not everyone in America likes that kind of music, but I'm not gona say "87.3% americans..." In general though America doesn't really look at Europe. Moreso nowadays though.

[Bromanch84]

@Deanocfc i know and it sucks cuz im from america and love dance music i bought my satellite radio just to listen to all the dance tunes

[closertofiftythanyew]

@Deanocfc

EE-HARRH!

US country music, Jim Reeves, Lynyrd Skynyrd etc. is brilliant. Don't you know what is in your back yard?

[Deanocfc]

@closertofiftythanyew

I'm English..

[closertofiftythanyew]

@Deanocfc

Oops, I might have clicked wrong reply

How about this then, more South London : ) copy paste youtube search,

watch?v=Qgvf9kjexck

[Zoza15]

MTV should do a Switch on Music, European Pop on the US TV, and American Music on the EU TV for a week...

The Most Americans Have no idea what theyre missing right now... But hey, at least we know the most populair artists from US..

You Americans need more varity in this and other different EU Music..

[tayloreh]

Theres Youtube, so its still in America's hands. Trust me, at University in my little corner I usually hear Justice and Lemonjelly in the middle of the day.

Although I still think that'd be great.

[Zoza15]

They can only see it on youtube, But not on Television..

I knew MTV did a switch on Dutch MTV and German MTV, because Germans and Dutch people couldnt really get along with Each other..

So we had German MTV for a Week and the German Had Dutch MTV for a week..

America should follow this idea as well..

[daniidaphindaee]

i know!! well im american and i listen to alot of european stuff tho. like bands and this too. and everyone says my music is crap. and i am like just wait lateron all of my music will become popular. and i know kesha isnt european but i KNEW she was gnna be famous.....beleive me or not idc but she DID. and before people called her music stupid when i was listening to her and now look. shes very famous.

[Zoza15]

Artists like Lady Gaga and Beyonce are Extremely Mainstream.. (The most things people are looking in music are the Tune's Not Lyrics.. -So as Europeans.

That becomes the only standard of interest people have..

But hey, I hope MTV Do a Switch on Music from Europe for you Americans..

But you Like EU Pop and Dance?, Look at Ida Corr, Elize, Ian Carey, Milk Inc, Kate Ryan, Dizzee Rascal.. (Too much to call up..

[daniidaphindaee]

@Zoza15 i hope so too. hahah and yea i know some of those people lol and deff ida corr. lol but yeaa im sure to check out those people:DD

[aielaiel]

@Zoza15 american mtv deosnt even show any music. its all drama rama reality show crap. but the underground scene has a ton of great stuff over here. ill have to go check out the euro mtv charts.

[Zoza15]

SURE!!!, do that ^_^ Feel Curious about music youve never heard of..

[maddzy]

MTV plays music!?

[Zoza15]

@maddzy They still play music, but i rather to watch other Dutch Music hosts than MTV these days..

[bigshootemup]

You must be thinking of mtv2.... mtv hasn't played music in years.

[Zoza15]

I like the Song, And the clip is very unusual..

[sjc22]

Can't believe this song didn't get noticed more, it's taken me months to even find out who sang it, noone had a clue. Love it!

[Yangus83]

Sektor from MK!!!

[LazyMashFace]

this song didnt ever get enough credit

[LaFondaBHH]

its inbetween this and Css song choice for my fashion show this year argh love this song!

[SchneiderSchneide]

hot robot

[dandyclaire]

too good of a song ahhhh

[HamNCheezeNLuv]

Anybody who's ever lived with a man who works all the time gets this song. The Robot is a metaphor. Just my opinion. I could be wrong. I freakin love this song, though.

[HamNCheezeNLuv]

BTW - does anyone else think of Bladerunner when they see this video??

[mervhughs]

I'm listening to this and my partner is at work, I have seen him for about 10 hours in 2 weeks due to work, So I could not agree with you more about this being a metaphor for a man that works far too much.

[HaloStrike]

Lol this is a great song and video. This is why drugs are good for you.

[robynmp3]

robyn songs and remixes @ my channel ^

[hayleyshhn2]

A good track

[nico8080]

I saw  Royksopp yesterday night: Robyn is fucking hot

[electronicoffee]

One of the best songs of all time. Two creative, ridiculously awesome musical forces. COMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOO@@@@!!!

[mattier3030]

robyn i love you

[piliguill]

magic song and video!

[kisameH20]

I dont really get the video but i love the song! Robyn is so awsome!

[nico8080]

I think she wants to shag the robot, this is the meaning of the video.

[analuviola]

I LOOOOOOOOOOVE

[anuitho]

grandiosa.qacion

[DottoressaG]

[Frikomid]

[dublindude07]

[soulreply]

Royksopp en mexico ¡¡¡ este 21 de Noviembre y en mi ciudad GUADALAJARA yo quiero ir ¡¡¡

[kaihiwatari111]

my best mayt looks a bit like robyn lool

[kalificious]

so glad for Robyn who got a recognition this year ! 2008/2009 was her year :p

Great song

[thehivesrock]

LOVE the robot doing "the robot"!

[Varickman]

The music, the lyrics are PERFECT! AWESOME!!! but the video... :S i think that Röyksopp can create something better... they're glitter!

[gerryman30]

At 1:58 Robyn sounds like Kate Bush. I've heard that Robyn is a fan of Kate's so maybe it's no coincidence. Great song & thanks for uploading.

[dobbyimmaculate]

this is my favourite song right now! I love it and the robyn's voice sounds like the madonna's voice in all the 'confessions on a dancefloor' album...

[TheRealSexyTimmy]

ROBYN LOOKS SO FIERCE!!! She needs to be recognized more

[eclecticbuni]

yeah her looks remind me of pink a little.

[ValkyrieLegend]

what an amazing song. I never get tired of listening to it. Royksopp continues to impress me.

Love Robyn's dress. also love when the robot starts "doing the robot" around 2:20. hilarious.

[gireat]

I love this song, the vids a little cheesy but its sstill a great tune to listen to

[burron123456]

When i Eard the melodys from Junior, instantly come to my head MADONNA!!!!, May be she is taking references from Royksopp

[habis99]

Robyns comeback is FAB....

[jcade614]

Dear Robyn:

Release a new album...soon!!! Please!!!

[crowbarblue]

I love Royksopp, but robots are in Daft Punk territory.

[melliemom]

I love this i am a big fan of royksopp and I'm a very big fan of robyn!!

and my man spends to much time at his work.

and i want a baby but he doesn't so this is ultimate earcandy!!

[Darhyru]

I really like the song, I would have preferred a different singer and the video is a little dumb, but still a cool song. I like these people.

[GuyverZen]

Robyn is HOT. The song is incredible, so the video is a bit lackluster in comparison. I expected something better I guess.

[piliguill]

great!!!!

sounds like 80's music!!!!!

very great!

[9400GS]

Thx.

Nice video.

Nice quality.

[soloForzaNapoli]

bellissima musica.. anche lei però eh!?!?

[JerbyVids]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song! And the whole album!

[DARIN9]

Goosebumps every time I listen to this. Goosebumps!!!

[SuperClaire1981]

I love this song.

[Spacedin]

The tune just does something to my head. It gives me shivers. Great lyrics too...

[megantolan100]
