Critical reception
Chris Riemenschneider (The Star Tribune) proclaimed the singer's performance in Minneapolis was original and well-executed stating, "Fans probably would have danced right through the floors of the downtown Minneapolis club if they hadn't also been so busy singing along to each of the dance-pop star's jilted, down-but-not-out love songs." Nicola Meighan (The Herald) gave Robyn's performance at the O2 ABC Glasgow 4 out of 5 stars saying, "[…]and her voice is as intimate as it is strong: lines like, "hey little star, don’t be afraid", spotlight Robyn's faculty for intergalactic yet private charm."
Kerri Mason (Billboard) praised her performance in Miami. She wrote, "On stage, she is enigmatic, an appealing sprite with a voice that coos and chirps, but with a fighter's stance and narrow eyes. Whether the song was about sexy cyborgs ('Fembot'), fearless love ('Indestructible', the next 'Body Talk' single), or the pain of rejection ('Be Mine!'), she sang each word with conviction, punctuating each beat with her own dance – a punchy hip-hop/raver style of movement usually reserved for after-hours dance floors, fearless and anonymous at the same time." Jaime Murnane (Chicago Sun-Times) called her performance in Chicago "highly energetic". She also mentions, "Robyn gives a whole new meaning to a live performance. Her signature energetic dance moves aside, the show was made even more special by various remixes of her own songs, like a circus-y sounding 'Cobrastyle' from her 2005 self-titled album that introduced fans to her new electro style -- a far cry from the pop/R&B hits like 'Show Me Love' that earned her worldwide success a decade earlier."
