On Saturday evening Robyn kicked off her set at the Nobel Peach Prize Concert in Norway, which was attended by global dignitaries and hosted by Denzel Washington and Anne Hathaway, with her version of the traditional folk song “Jag Vet en Dejlig Rosa” (I Know a Lovely Rose). After the touching number, she broke free of her reigns and let loose two of her disco/dance tracks “Dancing On My Own” and “Indestructible.”
When watching the Swedish singer perform, it’s difficult not to smile. Whether it’s those classic dance moves or the fact that she’s belting out lyrics that remind us of a situation we’ve all been in before, Robyn’s self-confidence always seems to be at 10. And we adore her for it. Watch her three-song set below.
Chinese human rights activist Liu Xiabob won this year’s Nobel Peace Prize for “for his long and non-violent struggle for fundamental human rights in China.” He is currently incarcerated as a political prisoner.
