Crack The Sky are an American prog-rock band who've been recording and performing since the mid-seventies. Today's robot song, or robo-ballad is from their debut album and titled Robots For Ronnie. It's a woeful tale about a young lad who's so unpopular that he needs some robot friends, presumably programmed to like him.
Here we have Crack The Sky performing Robots For Ronnie live in someone's basement... which is American for 'cellar'.

Robot Man : Scorpions
Another one from the 1970s today, 1975 to be pacific. Scorpions formed in Germany in 1965 and released their first album in 1972. From humble beginnings as a gigging beat group, Scorpions went to enjoy global success as one of the world's biggest heavy rock bands and gained themselves a fan base that spanned both the Atlantic and Specific oceans. Possibly inspired by Black Sabbath's Iron Bloke is Robot Man from the Scorpions' third LP 'In Trance'... and no, it's not a Connie Francis cover.
