Performance tip
Before performing Bankrobber, mark breaths before the busier lines so the phrasing stays relaxed. That preparation will keep Bankrobber from flattening into one dynamic level.
Should you sing it?
With Bankrobber, do not count on the room to do the work; it is better for a singer ready to own the lyric’s point of view. The song has some repeated lines to anchor the arrangement and fairly active phrasing. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
