" When the Red, Red Robin (Comes Bob, Bob, Bobbin 'Along) " - популярная песня 1926 года, написанная Гарри Вудсом как на словах, так и на музыке . Песня стала визитной карточкой певицы и актрисы Лилиан Рот , которая часто исполняла ее на пике своей музыкальной карьеры с конца 1920-х до конца 1930-х годов.

Notable recordings[edit]

The song was a hit in 1926 for: "Whispering" Jack Smith; Cliff Edwards; Paul Whiteman; and the band the Ipana Troubadors (vocal by Franklyn Baur). The most successful recording in 1926, however, was by Al Jolson.[1] Jolson recorded it again on December 5, 1947 for Decca Records.[2]

Also in the 1950s, a version was released by Peter Pan Records, with "Rock-a-Bye Your Baby with a Dixie Melody" on the reverse side of the single.

In popular culture[edit]

The song helped inspire the name of the American casual dining restaurant chain Red Robin: the owner of the original restaurant, in the University District of Seattle, sang in a barbershop quartet which frequently sang the song, and in the 1940s he renamed his restaurant "Sam's Red Robin".[8]

The English football club Charlton Athletic play Billy Cotton's version of the song as the team come out on to the pitch at their home ground The Valley.

The English rugby club Hull K.R. use an edited version of the song as their club anthem.

From Sesame Street, Robin says the title of the song during the end of the Elmo's World episode "Birds" before she leaves out the window

The song is sung by the title character in the final episode of Reilly, Ace of Spies.

In the season 3 episode of I Love Lucy, titled "Lucy and Ethel Buy the Same Dress" (1953), a portion of the song is sung by Fred Mertz and Ethel Mertz (William Frawley and Vivian Vance).

Rosemary Clooney performs the song in an episode of her 1956–1957 television series.[9]
