Don’t Even Get Me Started

RobynWe’re obviously doing something wrong in this country when our young ladies of pop aren’t putting songs like this on their albums. Or maybe there’s just something really right about Sweden.

Robyn – Konichiwa Bitches from Robyn or the Konichiwa Bitches EP

I also recommend the video:

Oh wait, I forgot about Dirrty. XtinaThat was pretty sweet. I guess everything’s OK here, then.

the song is great but the geography is way off. is she in japan or china? its hard to tell. with shout outs to hong kong and beijing i say china, but then koniichiwa and sumo wrestlers i’d have to guess japan. oh man, now i’m confused

I’ve been trying to pinpoint her location through the video. Her space suit does not look regulation, so I contacted noted astronomer Richard Hoagland for advice. Hoagland believes that the “space” portion of the video has been faked, and also that her hands are not nearly big enough to fill those boxing gloves.
