Rubberen Robbie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rubberen Robbie is a Dutch band from Leiden that came together after one of the most successful Dutch rock combos, Catapult (featuring all five men listed below) lost the way and collapsed at the beginning of the 1980s. The band sings in Straight Leiden Dialect. One of the band's most popular songs, "De Nederlandse Sterre Die Strale Overal" (Dutch Stars Shine Everywhere), earned the band number one status on the Dutch charts.
