Swedish pop sensation Robyn recently graced the NPR Tiny Desk stage with a special four-song performance. The artist delivered stripped-down versions of her celebrated tracks, beginning with a reimagined "Ever Again" from her 2018 album, Honey.
Robyn also brought back early hits, including a reworked rendition of her 1997 single "Show Me Love," a song that helped introduce her to American audiences. The performance also featured "Light Up" and concluded with "Sucker for Love."

She described the early days with Max Martin as a pioneering time for Swedish pop, but also a lonely and challenging one due to cultural differences when navigating the U.S. market.
