Cock Robin "The Promise You Made (Single & Video)"

"The Promise You Made" is a song by Peter Kingsbery. Originally written for Kingsbery's band Cock Robin, the song was recorded in 1984 for the group's self-titled debut album. It was released as a single in 1986 and became a big hit in Europe.

The video opens with an old woman stroking her dog; she then comes upon some passers-by and Peter Kingsbery enters the recording studio. As Kingsbery starts singing, people mill around the entrance to the studio and other members of the band also arrive inside and set up the instruments, with Anna LaCazio joining Kingsbery singing. As a fruit stand is knocked over outside, the last band member goes into the studio. In no time all the instruments are in place. Most of the video is made up of fade-outs, alternating the scenes inside the studio showing the band with images of the members of the public outside the studio entrance. The clip ends with pictures of Kingsbery and Anna LaCazio leaving the studio together.
