90 Seconds with the Best Live Band In The World...

according to Q Magazine and the Brit Awards a few times over, as they played a downright kick-ass set at the Garden last month.

Continuing Clairvoyance

The hallmark of the old Radio V was discovering hits and the artists yet to break for the masses. In fact, our previous incarnation on college radio led to some of the first American exposure for Coldplay, Kylie Minogue, and Dido among others. This, frankly, pissed off a lot of college radio purists, but set us apart in a landscape that celebrated its uniqueness by being rather samey.

Thus, we were happy (though not at all surprised) when we notched an early mention of a recent UK No. 1, Robyn's "With Every Heartbeat." That track made our 2006 Year-End singles chart at No. 10 and is a stark reminder of the talent of the Swede whose sterling "Do You Know (What It Takes)" opened the floodgates for the *NSync/Britney/Christina teen pop explosion.

Those potentially dubious credentials aside, much like Timberlake, Robyn has followed her muse beyond the sticky choruses and keyboard stabs that defined the 90s Stockholm sound. Opting here to trade her often R&B rooted soundscape for a squirming, electro-pop bassline and moody strings, she makes the third landmark single of her career, (the second being 2002's Radio V Classic "Keep This Fire Burning")

Mark it down, this is the best pop song you'll hear for weeks.

No US release is set, but take note, Robyn is back and so is Radio V 2.0.
