"Between the Lines" is a song by Swedish singer-songwriter

The Black Madonna and Preditah followed on April 12, 19 and 26 respectfully.[4][5][6]

Music video

The Ssion-directed video, filmed with a camcorder, depicts the singer partying in Ibiza, performing at a festival, and singing in a makeshift ball pit.[3] Inspired by Wham!'s "Club Tropicana" video, Ssion attempted to capture "the aggressive tackiness of tourist culture slapped up against the serene beach vibes" with the "DIY" aesthetic of the video.

Composition

The song features "

AutoTune".[7]

Live performance

Robyn performed the song in a medley with "Love Is Free" on

The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on 18 July 2019[8] and during the Honey Tour throughout 2019.[9]
During the show in Montreal on March 13, she struggled to remember some of the lyrics and sang "I don't know my lines" towards the end.

Release

On 20 June 2020, Robyn released "Between the Lines" on a limited edition 12" vinyl featuring remixes of the song along with "Beach 2k20". It was released as part of a Honey Remix vinyl series, alongside "Honey", "Baby Forgive Me" and "Ever Again", for the Love Record Stores Day 2020 event. Only 500 of each were manufactured.[10]
