Troy This - Happy (ft. Robyn)

"Give me some time to just breathe"

Here's a newly re-swizzled version of an old favorite. Popstar Troy This first came to the attention of several of us bloggers back in 2009 with his AMAZING track Back That Up and after that he kind of faded away. But from as much as I can tell, he's still at it, and I think he deserves much more attention than he's getting. This track, a duet of sorts with Robyn (yes, that Robyn) has one of the most indelible, laid back melodies of the past few years. It existed a couple years ago in a slightly rougher version, but I recently came across this new version and it totally reminded me about how much I love this artist. Happy, in particular, has an incredible mid-80's Prince feel to it, even down to the dual-voiced vocals (Robyn mostly sings along, rather than taking her own verses). And if that isn't quite enough Robyn for you, Troy also recorded a cover version of her song, Bum Like You.
