Robyn's "Call Your Girlfriend" makes me very uncomfortable. Breakup songs have been a staple of pop music since it began and Robyn found a unique angle, one I don't recall being used before, taking the point of view of the new girlfriend. The start of this new relationship is not a place of pure joy, but something that will wound the girlfriend no matter how well the situation is handled. How sad.
