Lol, and all these people still think Calum was the first to slow the song down and call it “his version”... nope. Calum actually auditioned with this version of her song. 🤷🏽♂️
so true, but i re-listened to both PLENTY and i found one major reason robyn went underrated... That is that she doesn't hold her tone to certain words as long as Calum, hence why when calum sang his version it held a little more feeling in it...
Abe Changsta LoL... the point was: Robyn did a slower acoustic version before calum, but a lot of people didn’t realize that this “version” had already existed... the rest is subjective. ✌🏽
DespicableContent LOL... no it doesn’t. The Song ALWAYS belongs to the songwriter... and like art, music is subjective as to which performance was “better”... fact is: the song is Robyn’s 😎
This song has healing powers. Listened to this soo many times during a dark period in life many, many years ago… crazy how you can be transformed back in time when hearing it again. Long live Robyn ❤️
This song came out when I was 20, my boyfriend had just broken up with me, I found out he had been seeing another girl and while this song was playing I actually saw him in a nightclub I was in, kissing her. Broke my heart and the song felt so apt
Going to be honest here, Calums song was on the radio and I said it was good and my daughter says you need to hear the original so I looks it up and it blew me away,this is good but her single version is a belter and the one where the crowd takes over is pumping.
While this version beats Callum's by a mile and is super intense and brings me to tears, I still think nothing can touch the Original. Just the sexy club vibe juxtaposed with the absolutely sad lyrics is a masterpiece.
His version of this isn't as emotional as Robyn does it. She literally wrote and composed the song. She knows what to do. Callum just relied on belting notes rather than emotion
Just look at her. Feel that voice. Look into her starry eyes... She is like a magnetic field that captures the sunlight and turnes it into a breathtaking northern lights... That's her. This is her song. Masterpiece. R❤byn.
Beautiful thank you for sharing it. I remember my boyfriend broke up with me and then we were both invited to the same Halloween party and he went with his new girlfriend and I was there with my new boyfriend and someone played this version of the song at the party as we all were dancing and I felt like I was living the song. Because I was in the corner dancing with my new boyfriend trying not to cry and I saw him kissing her while they were dancing. Then after the party when he took her home she said to him she saw how he looked at me and said she knew he wasn’t over me and they broke up and later that same night after the party my boyfriend said to me he told me the same thing that my ex’s girlfriend said he saw how I looked at him and knew I wasn’t over him he also said that he knew he was just his rebound guy and I didn’t love him the way l loved my ex. So we broke up and stayed friends. About three months later my ex, and I got back together and he promised me that he would never break my heart again. He hasn’t. So this song really means a lot to me.
Callum did a great job with this song. Many others starting sing it. I love both Robyn versions. However, no one can match the emotions of this version. This will always be her song.
Love the contrast between this and the louder more aggressive album version. This version feels more like the sudden empty aftermath of a failed relationship.
Many covers of this song, people like different versions, Robyn wrote it she is a songwriter, That is where the real credit belongs with the songwriter (plus she gets paid when other people record it!)
I liked Callum's cover and King's of Leon's was decent, but this slow version will always get me. And whenever I'm happy-sad and want to dance, I put on the original. Robyn will forever be the one for me
Calum Scott did a great job with song. Robyn's dance version of this was outstanding. This version of Robyn's showcases how multi-talented she is. So many people have sung carbon copies of Calum's version. Robyn style is truly unique and the emotions she communicates lets me know that this is truly HER song that many others have borrowed. This woman is so gifted and so under-rated.
love Robyn, she is such a talented songwriter and beautiful singer. I think a lot of people think this is a Kings of Leon song because Caleb took it and sang it from a male perspective. She is so under rated and kind of still under the radar but her songs are very much courting and sparking the hearts of a hell of a lot of people.
We should all share Robyn's song so the whole world will know how great singer she is. Reading all the comments, it hurts to think how she's been underrated. I never even know she existed until last week I stumbled upon one of her song on the Spotify, and yeah I was blown away like a Tornado. I'm so amazed! I never knew that Calum Scott's version Dancing on my own came from Robyn. Why? She deserves all the credits that she deserves.
This is absolutely extraordinary! Why has it taken me 25 years to find out about her? Body Talk has to be one of the most underrated albums of all time.
there's a saying in the music world. "pausing at certain verses can bring good responses, and hold a note longer (at times) can make a song more powerful. both are great artist, but Calum got more views cause he held down certain notes longer than Robyn...
@@Changsta74u No, Calum got more views because TH-cam is more popular now than it was back in 2011. I mean both artists are amazing, don't get me wrong, but we should be considering things like platforms and their availability when we say X is better than Y. 😊
Yup and I think she would have been proud of his cover. He did her justice. She’s so underrated and I hope he gave her more fans. I have loved her club style songs for years. But this slowed down version was beautiful.
As a lifelong metal head,as well as someone who has made a living and retired as a professional musician....I always liked Robyn. When regardless of genre,one person stands out as someone who obviously works harder than everyone else in their field...it shows. It's not subjective like a lot of music and topics on the matter are. Besides being a cute, little elf...she works harder when she undertakes a project than all of her peers ten fold. And it shows up in the content. Her content has a shelf life. Obviously, we're talking about 20 year old songs. Her peer's work has a shelf life of a few months,and that's it. We don't talk about their 20 year old songs, much less anything they put out a year ago. There's others possibly with traditional model type looks,and others possibly with vocal range she may not have...but that doesn't matter when she outworks them all.
You are an angel Robyn. Thank you so much for all the joy and sadness and love you have given us through your work. Its very brave to show your heart to the world. And inspiring too.
I HATE when there's a singing contest show (like The Voice) and they credit the song to Calum Scott. Like WTF, credit the song to the correct artist, who is Robyn not the guy who did a cover of it.
Nicholas Johnson I actually do appreciate both versions, but I was o my saying “dancing on my own” was a major hit. The studio version. But I’ve been coming back to this video since 2011 so I am biased.
@@nicholasjohnson3542 So what? If you're covering a song you credit the original artist, even his slower version of the song is basically this version. It doesn't matter if his cover is more popular it's her song.
This gives me chills....it's soooo beautiful. The CD version was and still is one of my favourite songs ever...but this is a million times better. Don't know how she does it.
Tony Balthazar or even better, you could pay full attention to robyn and realize the sincerity and depth of emotion with which she sings this amazing song she wrote and then you wouldnt be so fucking stupid.
Tony Balthazar or wait...why not robyn with some other arsehole who takes her song and "makes it his own"?? How about adam lambert or clay aiken?? Wouldnt that be fukkin gnarly bro??
Lol, and all these people still think Calum was the first to slow the song down and call it “his version”... nope. Calum actually auditioned with this version of her song. 🤷🏽♂️

DespicableContent again, the song will ALWAYS “belong” to Robyn.
DespicableContent 😂 didn’t “match”? Lol, the music is the same, the melody is the same, and the lyrics are the same. It’s the same song.
She proves to us once again why she OWNS this song. Often imitated, but never duplicated, our beloved Robyn.
All these yrs later n can’t Noone sing this song better than this woman here! omg Robyn is talent 🥰
This song has healing powers. Listened to this soo many times during a dark period in life many, many years ago… crazy how you can be transformed back in time when hearing it again. Long live Robyn ❤️
Her live acoustic versions get me teary-eyed. Am I the only one who gets emotional at this one?
Nope.
KAY DENÉ no 😞
No.
This song ment something to her 100%
No, this version is so moving and heartfelt. I love both the faster and acoustic versions.
Makes you remember every time you were in love and felt invisible..
The more you love, the more invisible you become
This song came out when I was 20, my boyfriend had just broken up with me, I found out he had been seeing another girl and while this song was playing I actually saw him in a nightclub I was in, kissing her. Broke my heart and the song felt so apt
She sings with her soul, That's why I love Robyn
she sounds like Gwen saffani
She sounds Robyn and I’m crying
Listening to this again, NOBODY does this like Robyn, do not even try
I am so addicted to her voice ❤ listen to Robyn since 2000/2001 and still in love
Sinse 1996 here❤
look calum is good. but robyn wrote this and still is intense in it. yall need to calm down robyn is already underrated enough
Sam Something thank you!!
True
Robyn deserves the credit, I mean it's not Calum's song even if he sings it good 🙄
Going to be honest here, Calums song was on the radio and I said it was good and my daughter says you need to hear the original so I looks it up and it blew me away,this is good but her single version is a belter and the one where the crowd takes over is pumping.
@Baritoz What the hell are you talking about?
Been looking for this version forever.
Me too! That's crazy
@@rwpsircwonderfully crazy!
While this version beats Callum's by a mile and is super intense and brings me to tears, I still think nothing can touch the Original. Just the sexy club vibe juxtaposed with the absolutely sad lyrics is a masterpiece.
Ugh Preach. Robyn is a queen and my dance playlist is filled with her club bops
His version of this isn't as emotional as Robyn does it. She literally wrote and composed the song. She knows what to do. Callum just relied on belting notes rather than emotion
omg the slower version is originally sang by Robyn and not Calum afterall.
ThelntellectualTruth... yup 😉
ThelntellectualTruth well yeah
ThelntellectualTruth how do you know this video wasn’t posted AFTER Calum?
@@HotMessMemories1 Moron. It was posted in 2011.
@@HotMessMemories1 Because there's a date when the video was posted?
First time hearing Robyn sing this slow. It's sooo good, she has a beautiful voice.
th-cam.com/video/C8z3sVbmkNs/w-d-xo.html
She is absolutely beautiful and i'm pretty sure there are a million people who would dance with her. Keep rocking it Robyn.
Absolutely
Exactly she own's the song, the original song and singer. I like Robyn. Hope to visit again.
And they still attribute the slow version of the song to Calum Scott , this is madness.
This is the original slow version .
Just look at her. Feel that voice. Look into her starry eyes... She is like a magnetic field that captures the sunlight and turnes it into a breathtaking northern lights... That's her. This is her song. Masterpiece. R❤byn.
Officially a Robyn stalker. Still revisiting this video years and years later. What a talent 💕

The best version out there
I disgree with you because Calcium sang better than her!!
Pradip Rulzs Was that a typing error because his name is Callum NOT Calcium!!!
St3vEn BaDu Thanks Mate for showing error.I was hurry that time!! ☺☺
Pradip Rulzs You're welcome
It's robyn's own song btw
Ein mega geiles Lied....egal in welcher Version... i like it on and on !!!

Proves the music industry does have good singers
She doesn't just sing her words, she feels them. So cute and fragile at the same time. A masterpiece, can't get rid of it....
I love Robyn and her 2 versions of Dancing On My Own. Beautiful song. Beautiful voice. Beautiful lady.
Many covers of this song, people like different versions, Robyn wrote it she is a songwriter, That is where the real credit belongs with the songwriter (plus she gets paid when other people record it!)

Awesome version of this song. :)
beautiful song reminds me of being 15 and watching a boy l was mad about that was over 40 years ago and its still there as if it were last week
How anyone can give her a thumbs down is beggars belief. One of the most underrated artists of our time

this song will stand the test of time
the dancing at 1:36 is extremely beautiful and delicate . . (a little like the flower pot men) . . Robyn you always make me happy . . thank you! X x
She's the best Swedish female artist ever, I just love her..
Even when the world come to an end we will listen to Robyn :-)
wow... she blows me away every time...
I love this ballad version! This song is so hurtful but liberating at the same time...
This is absolutely extraordinary! Why has it taken me 25 years to find out about her? Body Talk has to be one of the most underrated albums of all time.
I am one of the people who, originally, did not care for her because I thought she was just a pop princess.
I was wrong. Mad respect.
This is the original, great performance!
This is so fantastic, I'm speachless!
She's beautiful💖💞😍😘😘👏👏
this is ... touching, heartbreaking almost. she is soo good
Anyone who enjoyed this try Listen to Robyn singing be mine acoustic it's just as beautiful
Love her❤
Blows Calum Scotts version away! Robyn wrote this song and she is the best at singing it..... by a f'ing mile!

This is way better than her original version but she does not have the voice to nail it like Callum.
This song is fine but there’s no way you can say this performance is better than Callums.
Most beautiful version there is
Such a catchy ass melody and a really lovely, delicate performance.
Yes that's what I'm talking about l love you Robyn🌹
I had goosebumps most of the song :)
Not only did she perform it first, she co wrote and co produced it with Patrik Berger.
Thats actual factual folks 😊
I've loved her since '96... pretty sure this means I'll love her forever
She's so lovely in this, hope she gets more recognized for her works
Flawless
love u Robyn... this girl wrote the song..Original performance !!!! now performs it live.She needs more appreciates for her song. Robyn love u
This is the version that callum scott covered..
Yup and I think she would have been proud of his cover. He did her justice. She’s so underrated and I hope he gave her more fans. I have loved her club style songs for years. But this slowed down version was beautiful.
The original and best!
I can feel the love when hear Robyn singing...
so beautifulll... so touch....
So far away, but still so near
The lights go on, the music dies
But you don't see me standing here
I just came to say goodbye
i love her...
Thank you robyn. People like you make life endurable on this planet so infested with unfortunate souls.
Such a beautiful voice.
I haven't watched this in over a year but it's still one of my all-time favorite performances. You can feel such emotion in it. Gives me chills.

True honest emotion. Prefer this to that guys version. Original is always the best.
This is beautiful.
That's her absolutely perfect, nobody ever comes close to her talent. This woman is pure gold in this time.
Amazing voice. ❤ I’ve listened to this song over a hundred times. Each time is like my first.
Ohhhhh, Robyn! I am so inlove with your voice. 💗💗💗
I prefer Robyn but in the clubber original version !!!
Such a cool singer, love everything she does

Not just an amazingly talented songwriter but also a beautiful singer too.

This is so beautiful. Im crying.

heartbreaking lyrics and beautifully sung

Tony Balthazar me too. coz both are great singers
Sure are andra lovato
hell yes! an Acoustic, rock, pop, and dance versions.....
