Top 100 - UP NORTH - Die 100 besten Songs aus Skandinavien, Island & Finnland
2010 war "Dancing On My Own" eine Hymne und es ist vielleicht der Song, der diese Zeit am besten symbolisiert. Die aus Stockholm stammende Sängerin Robyn (Robin Miriam Carlsson) griff bei dem Stück musikalisch auf alte Motive aus der Discozeit zurück, verband sie mit dem Sound der New Romantics wie Ultravox und fügte eine Prise Elektro hinzu. Das Besondere war in diesem Fall der Kontrast der Musik zum Text, der von einer Trennung handelt und das Gefühl der Einsamkeit thematisiert. Robyn schlüpft in die Rolle einer verlassenen Frau, die sich ganz bewusst Schmerzen zufügt, indem sie ihrem Ex dabei zusieht, wie er mit einer anderen Frau im Club feiert. Die euphorische Stimmung der Protagonistin im Club und ihre Melancholie machen sie noch trauriger, als sie schon ist. Ihr bleibt nur noch, mit sich selbst zu tanzen.
