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." Release. "Robbery" was released for digital download and on streaming services on 20 September 2019. Chart performance.
