Don't know if anyone has seen this but Pitchfork.com posted an interview with Robyn, in which she discusses a bit of Prince's influence on her. Wasn't sure if this belonged in non-music or prince related...sorry if i'm screwing things up here.

"Pitchfork: Who's your ultimate pop artist?

Robyn: Prince is king to me. As this half-naked, short black guy who looked like a girl in the 70s and 80s, he was talking about women in a way that was very unusual because he didn't objectify them. He always puts himself in a vulnerable situation. And the songs have complex views of sexuality and male and female identities, which is very rare."

Wrong forum.

like i said, i wasnt sure if it goes here since its in reference to Robyn or if its goes to prince:music. I'm sure a mod will move if necessary.

I've already reported it to be moved there so it should be there before the day's over.

I'm sure the population of his female protegees might have something to say about that.

She did her own version of "Jack U off" as a b-side.

A couple of weeks earlier she had bought the "Controversy" and "Dirty mind" cd

I am so jealous... there are so many ppl in forums who seem to have met starts randomly... BTW Robyn's latest (Dancing On My Own) is full of '80s influences and it's a great song

I look forward to hearing that track! I need to get her albums soon since I'll be seeing her live in a few weeks!

Has anybody gone to see her in the All Hearts Tour with Kelis?? Im going to see them in a few weeks but I wanted to know if she sounded good in concert...

Always in a vulnerable position?? BULLSHIT, ridiculous

Prince is, and has always been, looking for a quick

Robyn, you're so naive...

Glad to see someone recognize the Purple Yoda's imprint on music.
