Composition


Described as a "deadpan house banger" and "one of the most lyrically inane songs of Robyn's career", the song "attempt[s] to capture the exact feelings of just chilling somewhere tropical and quietly enjoying yourself".[1] It features a sample of Timmy Thomas's "Why Can't We Live Together", as well as a musical reference to Robyn's debut "Show Me Love".[6] "Beach 2k20" features "jazzy samba beats" and "the occasional 'Schwoop!' sound you might recognize from a departing iMessage"[7]


Release


On 20 June 2020, Robyn released "Beach 2k20" on a limited edition 12" vinyl featuring remixes of the song along with "Between the Lines". 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.[8]
