Disco

"Fly, Robin, Fly" is a 1975 record by the German group Silver Convention. The song was released as a single from their 1975 album Save Me. In the United States, it rose to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1975, staying there for three weeks. The single also was No. 1 on the Soul Singles Chart for one week. "Fly, Robin, Fly" also spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Dance/Disco Chart. It was the first song by a German group to reach number one on the American music charts. In Canada, the song also reached the pole position in the charts, hitting number one in the RPM Top Singles Chart on 17 January 1976, knocking the Bay City Rollers' "Saturday Night" from the top slot, managing to keep it for a single week before being replaced by C. W. McCall's "Convoy" a week later.

"Fly, Robin, Fly" carries the distinction of being a Billboard chart-topper with one of the fewest numbers of unique words: six. The chorus simply repeats "Fly, robin, fly" three times, with an ending of "Up, up to the sky!"

During a segment on VH1's 100 Greatest Dance Songs, it was revealed that the working title was "Run, Rabbit, Run".

"Fly, Robin, Fly" won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Instrumental Performance in 1976.

CBS Sports used part of the song as intro music for NFL coverage in the late 1970s. The song was also featured in the film Boogie Nights (1997).

Silver Convention - Fly, Robin, Fly (Rafael Cancian Edit)

HOME BOY

The root of opposition. Not banners, not slogans, not even rebellion. The refusal to forget what was once instinct: the unfiltered laugh, the poem that served no purpose, the glance that lingered too long. It is not the destruction of the system that births freedom—it is the quiet insistence that the soul is not a cog.

They say the world fell. And from its ashes rose a better one, polished and perfected. But better is a word that forgets its own subject. Better for whom? Better by whose measure? Progress, when built without memory, becomes a tower with no doors, no windows—only mirrors reflecting the same unchanging face.

Somewhere, in a room where the walls are too white and the lights never dim, someone writes a new rule. But in another place, in the breath between seconds, someone else dares to forget it. Dares to dance without music. Dares to name a thought.

And in that, the opposition lives—not in violence, but in the fragile, immortal act of remembering that not all order is good, and not all chaos is bad. That to dream freely is the most dangerous and necessary form of resistance.
