In an interview with Ryan Dombal of Pitchfork, Dombal noted that the album tried new musical directions, while `` Dancing on My Own '' sounds `` like what we 've come to expect from a Robyn song '', and Robyn explained, `` I felt like I really found my voice on the last album, (... ) And I wrote ' With Every Heartbeat ', so there 's a reason why ' Dancing on My Own ' sounds similar. For me, that 's a good thing. '' `` Dancing on My Own '' was released as the first official single from Body Talk Pt. 1 via digital download on 1 June 2010 in Sweden and the United States. The song was serviced for mainstream airplay in the United States on 2 November 2010.

See media help. `` Dancing on My Own '' was composed by Robyn and Patrik Berger. The electronic and dance - pop ballad features hammerdrill throbbing synths and electronic percussions. It incorporates elements of electro and disco. James Montgomery of MTV News described the song as `` a computerized kaleidoscope of chippy, chiming blips and piston - like drums. '' The song 's emotional lyrics were compared to the themes of her previous singles, `` With Every Heartbeat '' and `` Be Mine ! '' `` Dancing on My Own '' has been described as a heartbreak anthem. It speaks of a woman who is dancing alone in a club, while watching her ex-lover with another woman. Montgomery noted that the `` throughly sad song ( talks ) about Robyn losing her man to another woman, but also about the notion of feeling alone in a crowded room, of being lost and unloved and having no other choice but to be OK with those things. '' The song features lines such as, `` I 'm in the corner, watching you kiss her. I 'm right over here, why ca n't you see me ? I 'm giving it my all, but I 'm not the girl you 're taking home. '' In contrast to `` With Every Heartbeat '' being `` grimly optimistic '', a The Guardian writer noted that `` Dancing on My Own '' offers `` no hope that things may get better. '' In an interview with MTV News, Robyn spoke of the song, saying, `` I mean, for me, of course it 's a sad love song, but it 's a strong song as well, or at least that 's what I want people to feel when they listen to it. '' In an interview with Pitchfork, she further elaborated on the song 's theme, saying ; `` People have so many expectations when they go out, so many wishes about what their night is going to be : if they 're going to meet that person, have a fun time with their friends, have a good high, hear good music. People get drunk and turn into themselves in a way, and they go to experience some kind of emotion. But it 's not always about fun. There 's a destructive side to it. But I 'm more into the empowerment of going out, because it 's always been the place where I could be myself and get inspired. Even if I 'm sad, dancing is a way to let stuff out. '' The song is performed in the key of G ♭ major with a tempo of 117 beats per minute in common time. The song follows a chord progression of G ♭ 5 -- D ♭ 5 -- C ♭ 5, and Robyn 's vocals span from D ♭ to E ♭. Critical reception ( Edit ) Robyn performing `` Dancing on My Own '' at the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize Concert `` Dancing on My Own '' received widespread acclaim from music critics and publications. Nick Levine of Digital Spy gave the song five out of five stars and wrote that `` ' Dancing on My Own ' is a misty - eyed electro - disco tune that 's every bit as emotive as ' With Every Heartbeat ' and ' Be Mine ' (... ) If your bottom lip 's not quivering like the bassline by the time the second chorus hits, you 've taken waaay too many mood stabilisers. '' Luke Lewis of NME referred to the song as `` a comet - trail of sadness and exhilaration that 's easily the equal of Robyn 's breakthrough hit, ' With Every Heartbeat '. '' The Guardian 's Michael Hann stated that song 's `` pulsing synths and electronic percussion manage to sound both jackbooted and ineffably melancholy. '' Jer Fairall wrote for PopMatters that `` ( t ) he aggressive stun - gun rhythm of ' Dancing on My Own ' ca n't hide a classic drama - played - out - on - the - dancefloor scenario inherited from standard bearers like ABBA 's ' Dancing Queen ' and Madonna 's ' Into the Groove ', nor is it cold enough not to melt at the touch of Robyn 's warm, yearning vocals or the song 's shimmering keyboard chime. '' Matthew Horton of BBC Music described `` Dancing on My Own '' -- along with `` Fembot '' and `` Cry When You Get Older '' -- as `` scorchingly catchy, and laced with Robyn 's familiar cordial of sparkling hook mixed with unutterable poignancy. '' Slant Magazine named `` Dancing on My Own '' the best song of 2010, writing : `` Few artists risk Robyn 's emotional nakedness, and with `` Dancing on My Own '' she reveals the exquisite flipside to her more empowered `` With Every Heartbeat. '' The Guardian named it the best song of the year as well, writing : `` Dancing on My Own is an extraordinary addition to Robyn 's canon of skewed love songs ; thoughtful and romantic enough for stuck - on - repeat listening, but with a pop sensibility that makes you want to head out in search of a dancefloor. '' Pitchfork named it the fourth best of 2010, saying that it `` demonstrate ( s ) that she is the Rocky Balboa of pop music. '' Rolling Stone named it the twenty - sixth best song of 2010, writing : `` The Swedish diva spots her beloved with another girl -- then turns her sadness into sparkling pop, perfect for solo freakouts. '' The song landed at number six on MTV 's Best Songs of 2010, with James Montgomery writing : `` as soon as `` Dancing '' gets to that hair - raising build -- a breathless rush of drums and adrenaline -- you 're no longer thinking about what Robyn 's saying, really. '' In January 2011, the American music magazine The Village Voice 's Pazz & Jop annual critics ' poll ranked `` Dancing on My Own '' at number three to find the best music of 2010. The song was nominated at the 53rd Grammy Awards in the category Best Dance Recording, but lost to `` Only Girl ( In the World ) '' by Rihanna.

Music video ( Edit ) Robyn standing in front a microphone stand in the music video The music video for `` Dancing on My Own '' was filmed in a studio in Stockholm, Sweden. It was directed by Max Vitali, who previously worked with Robyn on the second music video for her 2005 single `` Be Mine ! '' Decida choreographed it and Nils Ljunggren served as the producer. Visually, Vitali wanted the video to be simple ; it was made to resemble Robyn 's live performances and her then - upcoming tour. In a behind - the - scenes video, Robyn said, `` It 's going to be looking a little bit like what I 'm going to bring on tour. So it 's a performance video but it 's also going to be in I guess something like a rave or like a club or somewhere where people are dancing. '' Robyn explained that the video is about being sad on the dance floor and the main focus is dancing. The video features a club setting, where Robyn is walking around and watching her ex-boyfriend with another woman. In cutscenes, Robyn is standing on a stage - like setting, while singing in front of a microphone stand. The video premiered via Robyn 's official Vimeo account on 21 May 2010. One day earlier, a behind - the - scenes video was uploaded to her official website. Ryan Dombal of Pitchfork wrote of the video, `` When you 're a star, sometimes all you need to do is put on a casually stylish outfit, gaze into a lens, move your limbs around in a rhythmic manner, and -- just like that -- a high - quality music video is born. Robyn is a star. And that 's exactly what happens in this video. '' Leslie Simon of MTV Buzzworthy named it a `` Video You Need To Know '' and wrote, `` Amid a sea of strobe lights and PDA - stricken couples, Robyn seems cautiously fed up with dancing solo. Sad. We 'll dance with you, lady ! '' Live performances ( Edit ) Robyn performed the song on BBC Radio 1 's Live Lounge on 16 June 2010. She also performed the song on Capital 95.8 FM during a live session on 23 June 2010. The first live performance on US television was on the Late Show with David Letterman on 19 July 2010.

The two did not rehearse the performance until the morning of the show, and Robyn said, `` I met him for, like, five minutes, and then we were playing. '' A few days later, Robyn spoke to MTV News about the performance, saying, `` usually, awards shows can be so strange, but ( the VMAs ) felt really real. There were so many stars there and so many expectations, so I wanted to make sure I went up onstage and did something that felt real, and I got all this love from all the people at MTV. I felt really wanted. It was really amazing.
