When Röyksopp's latest album, Junior, landed on our desk earlier this year, we got really quite excited about 'The Girl And The Robot', their grinding, synth-fuelled collaboration with Scando-pop queen Robyn.
Quite rightly, the track's being released as a single next month and an equally brilliant video has just surfaced. It finds Robyn looking all tormented as she struggles to survive a robo-emotional affair with a hi-tech lover. There's also a brief appearance from the Röyksopp boys and a mini-twist at the end that might just bring a tear to your eye.
What do you think of 'The Girl And The Robot'? Is it as good as Kleerup and Robyn's 'With Every Heartbeat'? Use the space below to have your say.

I like the video but the song is very average and not commerical at all. I cant see it doing well. Wheres the chorus for a start?

It's a quirky video but I absolutely love it and the song is fantastic too - Robyn looks incredible as ever! It should be Royskopp's biggest hit yet and I really hope it's picked up by radio stations. Sounds surprisingly commerical for them, but all the better for it.

I totally disagree with you PJ it is catchy! and its really a sign of the electronic times in the UK even though the group are from Norwegian land..
