Song of the Week (Week of September 26, 2010)

It's Sunday, and I'm sorry I haven't updated anything since last Sunday! I like to at least have one post between every song of the week, but I guess I was just really busy this week...sorry!

So today's song is Robyn's cover of "Cobrastyle." This song originally appeared on her 2006 EP The Rakamonie, and then was featured on the international edition of her incredibly amazing album "Robyn." Her cover was even number 61 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs of 2008. Cover is really the wrong word used for her version of the song, as it's such a departure from the original Teddybears version. Listen to that version here, and then listen to her version if you want to hear for yourself: Click here for the Teddybears' version.

Ultimately, Robyn's version of this song is just fun and has a killer beat that even the original doesn't even have. Enjoy!



I press trigger, I don't press people button
Nobody chafs gon' face me with somethin
Like how I have twenty-two in' a me somethin
Ten is for you so who gon' get the next dozen, fool
(Repeat 4x)

Anytime they ready punahussy start war
Mess around and see who get it spread on th' tar

My style is the bom-diddi-bom di-dang di-dang diggi-diggi
This rude girl don't play with the bom di-dang di-dang diggi-diggi
(2x)

Punahussy sit around and a watch a girl live
Watch a girl roll, now you know I roll big
You sit around and plan how to put girl in fridge
Rememba when you dig a hole, it's two you gon' dig
Certain little boys I just stop deal with
Tell you they're your friend and then badmouth again

My style is the bom-diddi-bom di-dang di-dang diggi-diggi
This rude girl don't play with the bom di-dang di-dang diggi-diggi
(2x)

I press trigger, I don't press people button
Nobody chafs gon' face me with somethin
Like how I have twenty two and I'm miss somethin
Ten is for you so who gon' get the next dozen, fool
(2x)

Anytime they ready punahussy start war
Mess around and see who get it spread on th' tar

My style is the bom-diddi-bom di-dang di-dang diggi-diggi
This rude girl don't play with the bom di-dang di-dang diggi-diggi
(4x)

Certain little boys I just stop deal with
Tell you they're your friend and then badmouth again
