Robyn dropped her latest album Honey last fall, and it’s a gift that keeps on giving.

The Swedish singer just shared a dreamy video for the closing track from this record, titled “Ever Again”.

Her latest music video sees Robyn dancing on her own (no pun intended), surrounded by classical Greek statues on dim lit sandy stage. She channels her inner Prince with her passionate dance moves while swirling among ancient statues in the room.

The video was directed by Colin Solal Cardo, while Robyn’s longtime collaborator Maria “Decida” Wahlberg handled the choreography. The singer’s goal with this video was to set it in “a dreamy place, somewhere undefined, somewhere in her unconsciousness”.

“Ever Again” is the final track from her critically acclaimed album Honey, which came out on October 26th, 2018.

Robyn is currently busy promoting it around Europe but intends to bring her tour to America later this summer. Honey Tour will conclude with the final concert in Stockholm on August 17th.

Long Shot is the latest unconventional rom-com that won over movie-goers from all around the world, and there’s a lot to like about it.

One of our favorite parts is its amazing soundtrack, and director Jonathan Levine recently revealed how he put it together.

Music always played a huge role in his filmmaking process, and he took the same approach with this love story about a potential presidential candidate and her newly appointed speechwriter, played by Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen.

Levine shared his process in an interview with Slash Film, and explained he put together a playlist of songs he wanted to use, that served as a great source of inspiration.

“I was really going for this Cameron Crowe thing. Music is how you see the world. Music is the way you mark relationships. Music is what you remember about falling in love or breaking up. Music is the thing you share with someone when you want to get closer to them,” revealed Levine.

One of the most epic moments of the whole movie was surprise cameo by Boyz II Men. They gave the movie a ’90s flavor, and the love story between main characters probably wouldn’t even happen if it wasn’t for their music.

“They were the first call we made, and we we’re so excited they said yes, because from a character perspective, there’s so much of thinking about the young idealist and whether the young version of you would be happy with where you are today,” said Levine.

Here are some of our favorite tracks from this nostalgia-filled soundtrack:

Boyz II Men – Motownphilly

Boyz II Men – It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday

Lizzo – Juice

Roxette – It Must Have Been Love

Aretha Franklin – Bridge Over Troubled Water

Frank Ocean – Moon River

Blondie – One Way Or Another

David Bowie – Modern Love

The Cure – Close To Me

Robyn – Dancing On My Own
