Cock Robin is a U.S. pop-rock band, mostly popular in the 1980s, particularly in Europe where they were to become famous. The band was founded by singer-songwriter Peter Kingsbery in 1982, split up in 1990, and was reformed in 2006.
It remains somewhat of a mystery why
Cock Robin was never afforded the success they deserved in English-speaking countries, notably their native USA. In an era which saw a range of disposable acts gaining significant attention,
Cock Robin failed to find their audience in America, leaving European audiences, and particularly those in France, to give them the kind of attention they deserved.

Would you worry for me with a pain in your chest?
Could I rely on your faith to be strong?
To pick me back up and to push me along?
