Robyn has performed a Tiny Desk Concert for NPR Music, playing four songs including a stripped-back ‘Show Me Love’ and a piano ballad version of ‘Light Up’.
The stripped back set features ‘Sucker for Love’ and ‘Light Up’ from this year’s Sexistential, and the set kicks off with ‘Ever Again’ from Honey.
Robyn was 16 when ‘Show Me Love’ appeared on her debut album Robyn Is Here. “For me, this is where it all started, in a way,” she tells the audience before playing it.
