Konichiwa Bitches

Once upon a time, before there was Christina Aguilera and before there was Britney Spears, there was a sixteen year old Swedish girl, called Robin Miriam Carlsson a.k.a. Robyn singing "Do You Really Want Me (Show Respect)". It's 1995 and the song reaches #2 in the Swedish charts. Ten years later she breaks with her record company and starts her own label, Konichiwa Records. Her self titled album Robyn is released in Sweden and enters at #1 on the charts (May 5, 2005). Almost two years later the album is finally set be released in the UK (April 2, 2007)! First up is her single "Konichiwa Bitches" with a remix by Trentemoller. You can also watch the funny video by Fredrik Skogkvist at YouTube.
