Tove Lo has paid tribute to another Swedish pop star, covering Robyn‘s ‘Dancing On My Own’ while appearing on Australian radio station triple j’s Like a Version segment.Tove is accompanied solely by a pianist for her stripped-back rendition of the song, foregrounding her soaring vocals and bringing out all the emotion and power of Robyn’s 2010 heartbreak classic.“I think it’s just the most perfect pop song,” Tove said of her decision to cover the song in a post-performance interview. “Lyrically, it’s so simple, so clear.
You can really see it in front of you. I don’t know, it’s just stayed with me all these years, and still is just such a good song, and makes me want to cry and dance at the same time, which is my favourite thing to do.”“I feel very nostalgic when I hear it, even though I can’t pinpoint when I heard it the first time.
I just remember that feeling of frustration and still hopefulness that’s tied into that song somehow,” Tove continued.“The way that it’s, like, pop, but so sincere and still with a lot of emotion, and [Robyn] has a lot of integrity.
She’s just really badass and cool as well. But I think there’s just so much feeling there and still super catchy, and I love that.
