Of Course Robyn Fans Had a Subway Singalong

March 09, 2019

Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival 2011 - Day 1

Every wedding devolves into the scene that met subway riders Friday night: 20- and 30-somethings screaming “Dancing On My Own” as if their lives depended on it. Robyn concertgoers, refusing to let a good hang die and taking advantage of the fact that New York City’s public transportation infrastructure is crumbling around them, turned the subway into an impromptu dance party. One can assume that the crowd, filtering out from her March 8 Madison Square Garden show, clocked each other by their sequined booty shorts and asymmetrical haircuts. “You were at the show?” they’d ask as they clutched their new best friends’ forearms. Soon someone pulled out a bluetooth speaker and everyone started singing.
