5. "Dancehall Queen"
Average: 8.6923
High: 10 (10x) - WoozyFloozy, HausOfJabril, Drowned_World, Navin, bleuwaffle, lovesong, MP2K, Pelvic Thrust, ManDown, Ace Reject

Synopsis
"Dancehall Queen" served as a promotional single for Robyn's Body Talk Pt. I and it was produced by Diplo. The synths make it sound very 80s but it also has elements of a dancehall and reggae influenced sound. Robyn, Diplo, and Klas Ahlund were inspired by Swedish band Ace of Base. Some critics praised its experimental sound, hook, and chorus while others dismissed it. The track peaked at number 56 in Sweden. Robyn still has 3 of the 4 remaining songs.
Standout Lines
"Now what? Your jaw has dropped / Until the music stop, you know, I still run this thing like a dancehall queen / I really don't want no hassle"

In my top 5, Dancehall Queen would be #4, so I'm okay with it.
Hang With Me better now.

I really like "Dancehall Queen", I wish I gave it a higher score than I did because it's grown on me so much.
It doesn't even sound like the rest of the Body Talk tracks. It's refreshing.

You thought the countdown was over? It's been a long journey, but we're almost done here.

Literally how you posted the remaining songs is how I want the outcome to be, but I'm guessing not it's not going to happen.

Synopsis
The second single from Wounded Rhymes was "I Follow Rivers". Lykke sings about chasing down a lover over a flowy, airy, water-like beat. Like many of Lykke's other singles, "I Follow Rivers" was covered and remixed by a good number of other artists, and was used in movie trailers and commercials. This was Lykke's biggest chart success, as it garnered many top 10 positions across Europe and even a few platinum certifications. Unfortunately for Lykke, she is now eliminated from the competition.
Standout Lines
"Oh I beg you, can I follow? / Oh I ask you, why not always? Be the ocean, where I unravel / Be my only, be the water where I'm wading"
