Biography

US Pop/Rock band, mostly popular in the 1980s, particularly in Europe. The band was founded in 1982 by singer/songwriter Peter Kingsbery. Originally with 4 members, Molino III and Wright left before the release of the band's second album in 1987. Kingsbery and LaCazio stayed on as a duo for a third album in 1989 but split up in 1990 after their Europe tour. After a 16-year hiatus, Kingsbery and LaCazio reformed Cock Robin in 2006 and released two more albums before LaCazio decided to leave in 2015 and relocate to the US. Cock Robin nowadays is fronted by Peter Kingsbery with Coralie Vuillemin as vocalist during live shows. A new album was released in March 2016 with additional vocals by Agathe Cagin and Julie Wingins. Drummers Marc Jacquemin and Didier Strub also complete the band line-up for live shows. A 5-track EP was released in April 2017 with two new original tracks (one instrumental), 2 covers from Peter Kingsbery's solo albums and 1 cover from Cock Robin's first album, with new arrangements and vocals by Kingsbery and Vuillemin. In September 2021, Cock Robin, consisting now of Kingsbery, Vuillemin and Strub, released a new 14-track album called "Homo Alien." Band settings: Peter Kingsbery: Lead vocals, Keyboards, Bass.

LYRICS

I'd settle for a strand of hair lying on a pillow case
Just one, to understand why I can't sleep
If I could find a cigarette left burning in an ashtray
That would be enough proof for me
That would be enough
Hunting down a killer
I'm working out the truth
Hunting down a killer
But I haven't got a clue
No, I haven't got a clue

If I could catch a silhouette moving behind closed blinds
I'm sure I'd find another moving jointly
I would take an honest man that fumbles for an alibi
If I believed he just might be
If I believed

Hunting down a killer
I'm working out the truth
Hunting down a killer
But I haven't got a clue
No, I haven't got a clue

I will find those illusive hands
That tear at the insides
Of some pitiful man
Oh, so handsome
So much that it hurts
With hands that seize and illegally search

Hunting down a killer
I'm working out the truth
Hunting down a killer, yeah
But I haven't got a clue
No, I haven't got a clue

I haven't
