Robyn: 'Bjork Was Blown Away By My Song Cover'

September 14, 2010
Robyn: 'Bjork Was Blown Away By My Song Cover'Robyn has revealed that Bjork was “blown away” by her recent cover of one of the Icelandic star's songs.

The Swedish singer performed her own rendition of 'Hyperballad' at the Polar Music Prize ceremony in Stockholm.

Robyn told Gigwise that she was nervous about the performance, but that she had received positive feedback from Bjork.

“She really liked it. “She told me that she was blown away by the whole evening and that she felt really honoured and happy about it all,” the singer told Gigwise.

“That was nice because I was very very nervous.”

The singer released her new album 'Body Talk Pt. 2' on Monday (September 13).
