Anyone who is a Robyn fan has heard this song. The emotion and caring in her voice really carries through on "Call Your Girlfriend". She wants him to dump his girlfriend in favor of herself as their relationship has blossomed while his existing one has withered. And Robyn cares, she sympathizes, and she would want her man to let her down the same way. She wants him to be honest and up front without damaging her self-esteem and letting her know it will be better over time, and she does it all on top of a captivating electro-pop production that marks every burst of emotion with a splash of sound. The way Teddybears' bandmate Klas Ahlund drags her voice into the music itself, diminishing it from her own vocals into an electronic instrument of its' own, is worth the price of admission alone. Early stages of a mix by Kaskade can be found by those with the time for Easter eggs, but until a full mix is posted we'll just say that it sounds promising.
