This performance still hits hard in 2023, one of the best SNL performances of all time.

[@Generationrhino]

I think you referring to tarans

[@crybaby.island]

Yes it does!

[@edgarpenasalas6097]

I love it ❤❤❤❤

[@hodlighting]

I don't know, Ashlee Simpson in 2004 was mesmerizing

[@johnbaxter7607]

When she tours again - Go see her live. I’ve caught her 4 times. The crowds + her performances are sublime.

[@Kelsie0720]

i love how she dances like she's alone in her room xD

[@sjtherage]

yeah - if i tried to dance like that in my room - I'd probably bust my bum though trying to do that tumble thing she did! that was unexpected! lol!

[@Kelsie0720]

I'm pretty sure my head would be spinning if I even tried to dance like that... x.x

[@Shes0A0Mess]

+sjtherage its from her video though. its all the same moves lol. though it was pretty unexpected for her to actually do it on stage

[@MooshiMeu]

I think I could do that tumble if I was wearing a Calvin Klein corset as well

[@camrush]

would you say she's dancing on her own?

[@bomvocal]

Robyn is what pop should be. 100% fun. 100 percent art.

[@andromedalasso]

bomvocal Perfect comment.

[@jenniferweese3606]

bomvocal ...u got it right

[@jasonrebel7387]

Couldn’t agree more!!

[@kirmed7459]

Absolutely right!

[@TiaLuxanna]

I get what you're saying, but pop songs can be sad too.

[@oysterboy9]

11 years later - still getting chills. Robyn slays em' all.

[@murraythehotscot]

Same, honestly thought this was a random performance of this song from a couple of years ago, it’s incredible

[@tigersfan14]

Agreed. I come back to this every so often and it always makes my heart warm.

[@grahamjones6024]

I used to Tivo every episode of SNL when I was a freshman in highschool to watch on Sunday mornings. I remember this episode because I was so excited for Katy Perry to host. I had never heard of Robyn and these two performances completely changed my life. I even traveled to London alone to see her in 2019. I'm just rewatching this now for the first time 12 years later

[@CassandraRogers-nt3ij]

I absolutely love this

[@joshandallo2170]

The fact that she was pitch perfect while basically her whole body was above her head is vocal acrobatics right there! Robyn is one of our underrated pop icons! Sweden gave us a lot of musical gifts, but Robyn is one we really need to give flowers to.

[@nTrophy]

And THAT, my dear friends, is how you do a live performance.

[@MrMeadfoot]

+Alex Dkbrst only one problem though....she's not singing live.

[@nTrophy]

+MrMeadfoot I'm sorry for being so blunt, but are you deaf?

[@MrMeadfoot]

+Alex Dkbrst She is not singing live, nor is the band playing live, open your eyes and ears, she's still brill though.

[@nTrophy]

+MrMeadfoot Ri-i-i-ight, because they actually pre-recorded a version of this song where she sings slighltly off-key sometimes and gasps for air in perfect intervals coinciding with all the acrobatics she performs. That makes total sense, buddy!

[@queermm]

+MrMeadfoot idiot

[@pacobanega9681]

Her energy. She's like a fucking volcano.

[@brittripudio]

This girl needs a grammy.

[@atopos-ct6xh]

The Grammy need this girl

[@starsandstripesofcorruptio5524]

She needs a dentist too.

[@mandaico]

Swedish grammy 2018

[@ChrisEchoes]

Grammy’s aren’t given to independent artists / labels only to those affiliated to a major label.

[@jewulo]

@@starsandstripesofcorruptio5524 Was that really necessary. You strip away the talent and skill for the flux of appearance? It is probably a credit to her that she is not bothered to use dental cosmetics to hide the flaws of her dentition. We all have flaws. Organic systems are by definition full flaws. We shouldn't focus and mock people for simple cosmetic flaws like dentition. Focus on the skill and talent that is easily presented.

[@docindomito3468]

This woman is not afraid!

[@jayellis7743]

Criminally overlooked live performer. Her movements are everything.

[@rayla1780]

At least you didn't say underrated.

[@heyLORDitsme]

The electric slide part always kills me! I love it LOL

[@emilyhogan2963]

She knows she totally nailed it!

[@hamisreallygood]

truth

[@SeaGreenCP]

It's been over 8 years and I STILL get chills from this performance! No other musical act on SNL has reached this level of perfection.

[@rayla1780]

And you've seen them all?

[@Cold2Rain]

How can she sing this well while dancing so powerfully? She's absurdly good!

[@redrico35]

+Cold2Rain back up vocals track. She was also singing but yeah, she obviously knows when she can rely on them to carry.

[@JohnDoe-gn7hu]

+Cold2Rain it's called lip synching

[@tonexredido2846]

+John Doe No she's not

[@JohnDoe-gn7hu]

right, she can sing when her mouth doesn't even move. what a dumbass you are.

[@dudesidabe8243]

+John Doe if u can't tell the difference between her live voice and the backup vocal track then u sir are the dumbass.

[@aurevoiralex]

Dude, she worked so hard! So proud of her! :)

[@FullMetal-nu8bj]

I love that body roll on the floor! made my day

[@johnmccarron7066]

And she didn't miss a beat!

[@dgerch]

She's magical. Beautiful, Grotesque, Elegant, Clumsy, Masculine, Feminine,, Deadly serious, totally silly. Robin: Subversive Pop Enigma who goes 100%

[@_Rexs]

100% Agree for Masculine+Feminine. She's just serving everything

[@WexyFlex]

I remember watching this when it aired. I kept telling my wife I was afraid she'd fall with those shoes. But, immediately I was drawn to her confidence and enthusiasm. She's a veteran entertainer indeed! Awesome 👍🏼👍🏼

[@johnellizz]

I burned-off 200 calories just by watching this. I'll watch this 5 times every day now.

[@shaunpearson7905]

masturbation should be a private affair dude.

[@skipraida5497]

We all should have our 5 a day.....

[@shinigami146]

I did just that for quite a while. Super catchy song and unique performance.

[@elphbwckd212]

Imagine her full performances. She dances like this almost nonstop for 90 minutes! It's so crazy good

[@BanditTheBandito]

she owns the dance moves she does. clean cool dance moves.

[@brittany8305]

God, she makes heartbreak sound beautiful.

[@Shes0A0Mess]

Am i the only one Loving the mini corset thing made out of Calvin Klein waistbands??

[@Psergiorivera]

Absolutely thrilling performance. This is such a gorgeous song. I’ve been saying it for nearly a decade, Robyn’s “Body Talk” is the greatest dance album of this century.

[@DoktorSick]

This has to be on of the best snl performances !!! She rocked the house !!!

[@stevesurfaro]

Here in 2022 and Robyn’s hits are still among most requested according to DJs I know; she is just a happy queen of her own phenomenal blend of soulful funk pop! For those being critical of her performance here, her love of fans reigns supreme - she even did this at a pop up event, airport terminal at JFK. Love ❤️ u always Robyn ❤️🤘👊

[@alanolivo6718]

The energy on this woman is incredible, she's light, she's passion, she's art!

[@DaCake2]

Awesome performance. When the beat drops out at 2:33 and goes crazy, I always get the chills in the original video. Dope ass song.

[@Monster901023]

Love her jacket, her shoes and her confident attitude. Fresh.

[@jjaapp18]

I remember the first time I heard Robyn. I got my hopes up because I thought the 80s were finally coming back. Love listening to her.

[@marianojuri746]

yup

[@NikkoTanGoogle]

and the 80s did come back!!! have you heard of our lord and savior Carly Rae Jepsus?

[@jjaapp18]

Nikko Tan What? She's got nothing to do with the 80s

[@AdvantageousAngie]

Kids these days, thinking EDM is 80s. smdh

[@NikkoTanGoogle]

jjaapp18 gurl then u better listen to her latest albums EMOTION and EMOTION Side B then ull know what im talking about

[@tylerpatin4810]

Probably one of the best SNL performances.

[@rayla1780]

Good show! Thanks for the qualifier.

[@kaskadesmoney]

Easily the best on stage performance I've seen from SNL. Her dances are hypnotic.

[@scottcharney1091]

There's always Radiohead in 2000.

[@rayla1780]

Watch s'more shows.

[@ClaudioLaureano936]

It's so beautiful the way she gets involved with her performance. I cried!

[@sailor_brat]

anyone here after rpdr?? I'M OBSESSED NOW

[@SuperBrianMo1018]

Robyn needs to come back!!!

[@Sabainski]

Brian M she's back!

[@funnythriftguy4975]

henrique sabainski her new album is spicy

[@brightstarlit]

I used to think so but shit, her new album sucks so bad I wish she would have not come back because it’s VERY disappointing. I guess it would very hard to top body talk, but where are the melodies, and fun on Honey? It’s terrible most songs sound like bad filler tracks from shitty 90s artists. Sorry but this new album is an epic fail.

[@Aesopartemis]

She is still slaying

[@simontrepanier7066]

10 years later and still f****ng cool, my god !

[@patrickculhane1269]

My fav snl performance ever.. Her dancing is diabolical

[@veo16]

crazy performance! better than some of the more mainstream acts

[@charliez077]

better than almost all of them.

[@meredith.0]

I was 17 when she performed on SNL and I still vividly remember the whole song and performance! Love it!!!!

[@py2437]

SNL: How many cables do you need for your instruments? Robyn: Yes

[@lakshyasingh8931]

dayuum i cant even talk straight while running...

[@mdgillispie]

She’s so deserving and she’s having fun... that’s what’s important. She deserves more credit than we give her.

[@JoloSon]

2018 with her new single, MISSING U, and I'm still here watching her epic Call Your Girlfriend performance.

[@niconico00]

Robyn is living proof that it IS possible to sing and dance live at the same time. Follow this you bitches!!!

[@lastfog]

When you're lip synching, sure. It's easy.

[@sspitcher1513]

lastfog No lip synching here, you can here her breathing hard the whole time. She sings the chorus amazing which is why you might think she's lip synching, but she's not.

[@DEEECKED]

lastfog Backing track harmonies ≠ Lip Syncing

[@TheCallistodimera]

You've never seen Madonna perform live I guess?

[@niconico00]

Oh please, don't drag Madonna into this or you will cause so much trouble! :)

[@beingjoshmc]

I hope Katy Perry sat her ass down and took some fucking notes.

[@petal979]

whats wrong with katy perry?

[@beckybanan]

Yes. This.

[@petal979]

I think they are both very talented in their own ways, I wouldnt want everyone being the same, or would you?

[@YvetteMirandaJ]

beingjoshmc Robyn was touring with Katy Perry, which is probably why Robyn was on SNL.

[@cdsdior7208]

beingjoshmc hahahaha honestly I had the same though

[@NotTheLarryDavid]

I dumped my girlfriend but I'm still waiting for your call, Robyn. Not cool.

[@travisblairkelleher6588]

Lol!!!

[@elphbwckd212]

Missed the point of the song? She's not calling you. Lol

[@nickadams1992]

elphbwckd Huh? She’s telling the guy to call his girlfriend and break up with her so that he and Robyn can be together.

[@cartdc]

How did I miss this?!!! It's so good, and she's an incredible live performer. I love Robyn so much!!!

[@sweetsweetfantansy]

I love Robyn !!!!! She's one of my favourite singers!!!!

[@2Bdiscovered]

I WONDER WHILE KATY PERRY WAS WATCHING THIS DID SHE THINK TO HERSELF "HOLY FUCK. SHE'S WAY BETTER THAN I'LL EVER BE."

[@badmotorcycle1415]

Katy Perry loves Robyn. Robyn opened for her on tour.

[@AnthonyMichaelNordin]

why does it always have to be a competition? let 2 different people from 2 different walks of life perform and love each other without it being a battle of who's better.

[@badmotorcycle1415]

Brain Dead Clinic strikes again.

[@AnthonyMichaelNordin]

In my opinion, Katy Perry is a great vocalist. Definitely not the best, but she's still amazing. She's beautiful with a nice voice and personality. Stop comparing.

[@badmotorcycle1415]

Thanks to Katy's mom for this insightful comment.

[@patricksimpson1173]

What an incredible BEAST of a performer! She pulls the dance, and breath off same time , while holding the mic. RESPEK.

[@mario2403]

I'm addicted to this performance ❤️❤️ Also she's so underrated 😭

[@Littlefa3]

Jack wasn't kidding; her dancing does feel natural.

[@IzaacMateus]

*The pop needs you, plz come back. 😍❤*

[@PCkeez]

I was literally just coming to leave this exact comment. This is truly the essence of what pop should be - not hidden agendas, no-hyper sexualization… just an entertainer out there slaying and loving what she gets to do. I’ve always respected Robyn for not changing her stripes or even trying to. She’s always been that pop star who just does her job and has a smile on her face while she does it. How can you not love that?

[@jf.reallylonglastname6308]

it was so magical to see this when it first aired! my 20-something heart just melted... the feels just hit me.. love you, Robyn!!
