Correction: "In My Eyes" is #43
The lowdown: In what could be the love theme to
The Matrix, Robyn comforts a distraught boy—a fellow "programmed rebel in a cruel, cruel world"—telling him to seek solace in the truth of her steely Swedish gaze. Co-written by Klas Åhlund and produced in collaboration with Kleerup, this futuristic techno anthem, which at times feels like a journey through outer space, is the opener for
Body Talk Pt. 2 and the fourteenth track on the
Body Talk compilation.
The vote: With three 10's and no scores under 5 in the first ten ballots, "In My Eyes" was pushing toward the top twenty early on. Subsequent voters were less kind and it tumbled about twenty spots to its final ranking. Nevertheless, it's the first song thus far to receive no 1's.
Best line: "We all fall apart and make mistakes.../You put your dancing shoes on and do it again"
