In an interview, Lime Cordiale member Louis Leimbach said:
"I love the 60s feel to the song. The whole song could just be a baritone sax and a snare and all the main elements would be there. The song all started with that line 'Hey, there's been a robbery'. When you meet someone, even just for a moment, they make an impact and then they're gone. You're left feeling robbed. You feel as though you need to find them somehow but it's no use." [3]
"Robbery" was released for digital download and on streaming services on 20 September 2019. [4]
"Robbery" debuted and peaked at number 63 on the ARIA Singles Chart for the chart dated 3 February 2020, a week after polling at number 7 in Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2019. [5]
"Robbery" was certified gold in Australia in June 2020,[ citation needed ] before being certified platinum by the year's end. [6]
The music video was directed and produced by Jack Shepherd, Oliver Leimbach, Louis Leimbach, James Jennings, Felix Bornholdt, Nich Polovineo and Adam Haynes.
The video follows a "broken-hearted" Louis to various landmarks and vistas across Spain, Ireland, France, England, Netherlands, Belgium and Australia as he searches for romance. [7]
Debbie Carr of Triple J called the song a "cute lil ditty" saying the duo "have nailed the art of the impossibly catchy hooks". [8]
