It's hard to pick one favorite aspect of the video for Robyn's bubbly new UK single, "Handle Me": Is it the part where she's all dressed up in an outfit that turns her into the greatest pugilisitic jukebox to come out of Sweden in forever, or the way she, uh, manhandles the large stuffed bear that shares her cube for a verse or two? Either way, if anyone can figure out the exact dance that's on the footwork-instruction dress she's wearing, please let us know in comments.

express yourself, don't repress yourself....
i don't really get why everybody's all into robyn again. i mean, this song's fine and not offensive to asians like that other one, but i still liked it better when she was the proto-britney spears. also, when you cut off her head (robyn's i mean) and stick it in a box it sort of draws extra attention to her eyebrows. which is not where anybody's attention should be going. especially when she's dressed like a giant hot dog.
It's kind of incredible that, 2 after it's original release, I'm not even close to being tired of this album.
also, those eyebrows are ridiculous in the best possible way.
@aluberalles: that's 2 years...
The song's surprisingly enjoyable. I was as little afraid...it was a "'that' Robyn?" moment. Love the video. Except, of course, those eyebrows. Should be a Halloween costume in itself:
- "I'm Robyn's eyebrows!"
- "You're fucking terrifying."
It's a minute too long, but solid. And those eyebrows will be putting out a Timbaland-produced song any day now.
It's a JoJo song in a hypermodern package.
eyebrows.
(speechless)
Does she have two videos for every song she's released? Not that I'm complaining.
I don't really know how you can seriously criticize this - the girl is willing to look astoundingly ridiculous. How many other pop starlets have her sense of humour? And that video has snatches of awesome imagery, like her black and white chequered pants flailing in the box.
The song is cute and I like how the verses are catchier than the chorus, but I liked the video better when Madonna did it, or Tori Amos before her.
I Sia does ugly better with catchier music and a more disturbing video.
