Robyn - Call Your Girlfriend (Live on SNL)

[@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?

[@spurs2021]

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.

[@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

[@vokasimid5330]

Should listen to "Every Heartbeat"

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@heyLORDitsme]

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

[@pacobanega9681]

Her energy. She's like a fucking volcano.

[@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

[@jayellis7743]

Criminally overlooked live performer. Her movements are everything.

[@rayla1780]

At least you didn't say underrated.

[@aurevoiralex]

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

[@docindomito3468]

This woman is not afraid!

[@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?

[@FullMetal-nu8bj]

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

[@johnmccarron7066]

And she didn't miss a beat!

[@BanditTheBandito]

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

[@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 👍🏼👍🏼

[@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.

[@Dudesidabe]

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

[@emilyhogan2963]

She knows she totally nailed it!

[@hamisreallygood]

truth

[@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 !!!

[@brittripudio]

This girl needs a grammy.

[@cttncndy7]

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.

[@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.

[@robmoss8198]

This cuts through so much harder than 99% of chart stuff. It's utterly real.

[@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 ❤️🤘👊

[@brittany8305]

God, she makes heartbreak sound beautiful.

[@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

[@ClaudioLaureano936]

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

[@JohnDoe-gn7hu]

+Claudio Junior here's a new tampon.

[@NotTheLarryDavid]

Good god, I love this woman. Such energy!

[@dominicaaaaa5547]

how are your long balls larry

[@Monster901023]

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

[@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.

[@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

[@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.

[@Shes0A0Mess]

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

My fav snl performance ever.. Her dancing is diabolical

[@meredith.0]

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

[@JoloSon]

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

[@simontrepanier7066]

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

[@sweetsweetfantansy]

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

[@cartdc]

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

[@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

[@lovelife11]

She wasn’t a new pop star. She was established for 10+ years in Europe. Please. She’s amazing.

[@icebergmike27]

the girl has some endurance!

[@lalitsharma34]

still watching in dec 2016 and its the best! Robyn is the best

[@MIXTOKENT]

Eu amo Robyn !!!

[@finnellwilliam]

Random Fiddles 2017!

[@PDAWK]

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

[@TheAddictionSupportGroup]

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

[@stevesurfaro]

Here in 2022, and this is permanently on my iPod Classics - I can watch her all day long :)

[@KenSherman]

Wow! This still hits hard in 2024! Robyn never ceases to entertain in her performances. One of the all-time #greatestSNLperformances.

[@sailor_brat]

anyone here after rpdr?? I'M OBSESSED NOW

[@TheJrockhime]

lovin everything about this the synthesizer , her vocals, dancing, that jacket ..sooo fun! and she is a Boss with her own record label ...I hope she will .....always be around XD

[@veo16]

crazy performance! better than some of the more mainstream acts

[@charliez077]

better than almost all of them.

[@seanriopel3132]

11 years later and this is still one of my favorite things ever from SNL!

[@rafaluz6759]

I love u so much Robyn! Kisses from Brasil 🇧🇷

[@mario2403]

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

[@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?

[@lucassjustino]

One of the best performances on American tv, I'm talking ALL TIME. Iconic.

[@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!!

[@SiberianSoldier]

Anyone notice how she seems more lively after she totally nailed that roll? She must have been thinking, 'Oh god, please don't let me screw this up..' then she bloody aced it, and she's like, 'Oh yeah, it's bloody go time!' Kickass video! Robyn has been one of my idols since bloody '97!

[@danixb15]

This is pure perfection, It is been 6 years now and I come here everytime I feel down.

[@poshie108]

To hold a tune while busting those moves, in those boots! Awe-inspiring to say the least.

[@NO-uq5lj]

I dont understand how this video only has 1.8 Million views. this is PURE talent right here.

[@avoryreynolds5905]

I love how she gets into her music and dances. It makes me smile. :D

[@missytechlp]

Still dancing to this😏

[@rodrigosens]

The fact that this sounds so fresh and visionary after 12 years, wow. She changed pop music forever.

[@imaginarysmiles]

Love watching Robyn live because she always looks like she's having the time of her life.

[@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.

[@cdsdior7208]

I LOVE watching her dance. Incredible performance

[@BenAtBrady]

I love her fearlessness and the joy she conveys with her performance. She gives it her all and has a great time doing it.

[@brazildjs]

She's perfect!!

[@Missssrooty]

I love her smile at the end from the applause. You know you rocked it girl 💖 💖💖 🇱🇷

[@anisegerer5455]

Ok Drag race Teletubbies take me to SNL

[@armpitification]

I have Rigga Morris watching this...

[@bowiemayfield2795]

That’s okay guys, it’s in my cleft notes.

[@yasmine5105]

I've loved her music and style since her first album.

[@rayla1780]

And Honey?

[@PumpkinLicorice]

Ugh, I love her so much. She's so charismatic, and seems like she's got such a good energy about her. Can't wait to see her & Röyksopp in June!!

[@KevinCBurke]

I think this and Radiohead's 'Idioteque' are best SNL music performances ever. It takes so much bravery to do what they're doing!

[@lakshyasingh8931]

dayuum i cant even talk straight while running...

[@paulzoo1016]

There's a reason why she is one of the best shows I have ever seen live!

[@rayla1780]

What's the reason?

[@raamonster]

This song (and performance of course) will always have a special place in my pop music heart! I read somewhere that at first, you'd think she's the other woman but then if you look at the lyrics, she's really the girlfriend relaying how her cheating boyfriend broke up with her but imagining and talking as if she's the other woman! I LOVE! Heartbreaking story inside a catchy dance pop song!

[@towedarray7217]

This is still one of the most memorable live performances on SNL in the time I’ve been watching it (1991-present unbroken but I’ve gone back and watched all past episodes). This is top 20 for me overall and in the top 10 in the 19-teens. She and the team did a great job.

[@AlvaroChuquiureZadig]

Her energy performing is amazing ! and funny that "I kissed a girl" singer introduced her . . . lol.

[@moonbeam4016]

Queen of the universe. 👏👏👏

[@corywynne2865]
