专辑介绍

If you're not a Robyn fan this CD is a shorter version of "Robyn Is Here" at a slightly smaller price.

[This version does not have the title cut, "Just Another Girlfriend, nor "I Wish (A Capella)."] You're better off just buying the "Robyn Is Here" CD at a record store, when it's about a dollar or two more at most.

If you are a Robyn fan this release is definitely a major disappointment. That's because Robyn has cut 2 more CDs since "Robyn Is Here" went platinum in the US in 1998. Neither was released in the US, and you might indeed think Zomba/Jive Records and BMG would have put SOMETHING from her last 2 CDs on this release, just to save face. Having an artist with just one CD out there but one "greatest hits" CD is definitely the record industry's version of "damning someone with faint praise."

Many folks think "My Truth" is her best work and "Don't Stop The Music" is at least on a par with her first effort. And if you haven't heard "Underneath The Heart," "88 Days," "Long Gone," or "Moonlight" you really haven't heard Robyn at her best.

So much of Robyn's work has become not just about the search for love but the quest for a real soulmate -- that's what makes her later CDs so intimate and articulate. And, as in "Don't Stop The Music" and "Keep This Fire Burning" she still finds plenty of reason to dance. BMG and its record labels really miss the boat here by not making "Robyn's Best" truly Robyn's best. Maybe with a little luck, her next "greatest hits" CD will be on another label.
