At this time many people were still trying to keep disco...But Robert had something else on his mind....I believe he's one of the artists that pushed music to the next generation...He's one of the first to set-off true 80's music along with Phil Collins, Huey Lewis & others.
Wow...just fell in love with this song all over again. Mr. Palmer delivered the goods every time. Great band, having a lot of fun. Funk was never done better.
I've noticed that many of my fav artists (Palmer is one of them) from the 80's don't have any official concert videos from that time. Which is a real shame considering that some of the most exciting music came out then. But I see here on YT there are many clips from Japan. I just thank god that somebody in Japan was smart enough to tape all this great stuff. Otherwise we'd all be missing out on some of the greatest performances of all time.
35,000 views and only 79 thumbs up? WOW! I wish I had more thumbs. Figured more than 83 votes by this point. VOTE... Man had more moves than Jell-o! I cant wait to possibly meet him up there... R.I.P.
God Bless Robert Palmer. I know he's out there somewhere & on a higher level of love than we down here. We love you Robert. Your timeless & in my heart forever...*
i think robert was a bridge between generations and style...hence very difficult. my sense is that his music was somewhat of a synthesis or ecletic in nature. This is highly difficult and thus this man crossed this arduous bridge and with class and flare!
I was lucky enough to see this tour at the Wiltern in Los Angeles!!!! Amazing performer and one of the best concerts I've ever attended! I really miss him!
Yes a band called System did originally do the track back in 1983. This version came out the same year on the Pride album. I used to love this track when it came out. Thought it had a sound quite far ahead of the time.
@alvindalvin You are correct, sir. I have the CD. A great Birmingham, AL band called The Cast covered RP's version of the song (which, IMHO, is better than the original)
Smoking hot version with Palmer at the top of his game vocally (dancing wise, not so much!). You left us too soon, I miss you man! P.S. The drummer (Dony Wynn I think) is stone cold.
demuestra calidad vocal un cantante de los que no hay ahora ,robert palmer siempre se caracterisa por tener buenos bateristas vean otros videos el unico cantante que canta de verdad en resitales en vivo
I was lucky enough to see this tour on it's Los Angeles date at the Wiltern Theatre! Amazing that this was 22 years ago! haha It's so sad getting old! :>0
Very cool performance, one of my long time favorites. Very cool drummer, look at his reduced set! Definitely not a bragger, and he can cook hot on the point.
you want to you can check my remake out of this I think i did a pretty good job with bass and singing, cept mine is based on the original one but i do like this one too.
soundclickcom/black keys or indiechartscom/blackkeys
Great live performance. Its a shame they didnt work on the bass a bit more. This is what makes the song. Oh, i wish someone had the original group THE SYSTEM doing this live.
Hey rrn3000, Great to see these coll vid clips of Robert back in the 80's. Do you have a dvd or vhs of this concert that you'd be willing to copy & sell? I'd love to own this. Thank's.
Wow live version!.He is really cool ofcourse and so as the rest of all backing musicians they are all so funky on this.That girl playing synths(only appears a little at the end) she is also cool.I love this track and this is a brilliant live version!.
real music

Robert Palmer was a true soulman, a great singer with feel and powerful delivery, and those are real musicians!!!
