Let Robyn's Warm 'Honey' Video Be The 'Piece Of Heaven' You Need Today

Robyn's good new album, Honey, has been out in the world since October 26, and you've presumably danced to it approximately day-to-day since then. Its highs, like fizzy opener "Missing U," are dazzling peaks, while its more experimental and gooey middle ("Send to Robin Immediately") pumps some air into the moment, letting everything else breathe.


And then there's the great title track, whose four simple words – "come get your honey" — have become a little bit of a rallying cry. There's something very comforting about the song's seemingly endless warmth, a key element that director Max Vitali preserved and even bottled for the music video, which dropped on Wednesday (December 5).


In it, Robyn and also an audience of dancers are artfully shot from a multitude of close angles, gradually panning out to reveal the whole squad. It's neat. It also flawlessly captures the song's underlying clubby pulse, its heartbeat and fulcrum, as Robyn's jetting vocals fill the spaces.


"I hope to mention thank you to all of you who came from near and far and danced with me," Robyn wrote on Instagram. "The video is for you and each person who noticed a part of heaven on the [dance floor]."


The clip reminds me most recently of Sam Smith and Calvin Harris with each other on "Promises" and Dua Lipa's similarly sweaty, identically ecstatic "Electricity" video with Silk City, though Robyn's long career in dance music likely helped served as inspiration for those relative newcomers. It's routinely nice to be able to see how dance celebration takes new shapes.


Watch the delightful "Honey" video above. Let its coziness warm your frigid bones.
