@@soyyo4154 I assume you are of course being sarcastic. It was named Mtv and had the words Music Television under it because it was made for Music Videos starting in 1979 and on through the 80's. The first music video to air on it was Video killed the Radio star by the Buggles in 1979 a fitting song topic in the lyrics for a band with a new age Music Video out on Mtv rather than just on Radio airplay.
Gidday, in 1988 I worked in an electrical appliance store in Brisbane Australia. When this came on the TVs, everybody stopped what they were doing and headed straight to the TV section. This and Expo 88 were the two things I remember from that year
This was a follow up to Addicted to Love. He did the video as a parody of Addicted to Love. Whether you like him or not, he was THE BEST DRESSED MAN in music. He always dressed sharp.
He did two of these videos with the girls like this that I know of. The other was "Addicted to Love". Both great videos. I believe the attempt was to make them "identical"
@@garylindsey5174 LoL, no worries! I only remember cause that's one of my favorite Palmer songs. And at our age we're lucky we remember even half of the 80s ;~)
Thanks for the memories. This was look in 1988. It was all about pulling your hair back in a tight ponytail, putting on that red MAC lipstick and doing a dark eye look! 😎👍🏻 RIP Robert Palmer, he died too young.
Good lord this brought me back... I sure liked the beat and the sound. BUT THE DANCERs in the background... hell yeah. They're all simply irresistible!! 😏
If memory serves, Palmer was also billed as "best dressed" in the music genre during the mid-late 80's. Seems I remember some voting contest on MTV (back when they used to actually play music videos) and he won by quite a large margin.
I saw Robert Palmer in 1978 at a State College before he went crazy popular on MTV. Really the first real concert I attended. Band was super tight and it was REALLY REALLY LOUD... Possibly the loudest show I ever heard.
Robert Palmer - so handsome, so suave, and that voice. That Voice. Loved him since the Sneakin’ Sally album. Check out Hey Julia/Sailin’ Shoes/Sneakin’ Sally Through the Alley.
I rarely like videos but great song, handsome guy, beautiful women, clever choreograph; put them all together and you have a video that is impossible to not like.
I was a kid when this came out I remember being at grandparents house and watching MTV and this was my Grandpa’s favorite video lol He would tell me in Spanish “Let me know when that video comes on” my grandma would pinch him and say “NO!!” Lol
RIP Robert. One of his underrated best songs is well worth a listen, Sneaking Sally Through The Alley. Robert was backed up by the great funk band, The Meters.
I think being yourself, is simply irresistible.....as for Robert Palmer he becomes the Gentleman's gentleman--nonviolent,non player, just himself. (Who knows,anyway the wind blows; he's always been a family man who knows that individuals live above the Fray, politics, gov't, revolution, fame and rot......too busy to ever worry about what should come out in the wash. Love this dove.To me he is simply irresistible.
Ah, one of the quintissential 80's videos! This is the kind of thing MTV was made for, back when it was ALL music videos ALL the time. It's totally ironic, though - notice how he says "she's anything but typical", and yet all the girls behind him look exactly alike! ("Addicted to Love" was his other really huge hit, also populated by those identical girls.)
"Addicted to Love" I'd read was voted 3rd most popular Music Video of the '80's (And "Simply Irresistible" close). The article didn't say what the top2 were, but must be MJ's "Thriller" and "Beat It or "Billie Jean." On the "anything but typical" line, the girls look -nearly identical, yes, but not in a way one sees anywhere else; plus there's more than looks of course. I was surprised India didn't get that the model wasn't really playing the guitar (look at those nails!...) Glad she liked it a lot.
LOVE this song ! has to be played LOUD. ha. another one of his hits was "addicted to love" and it's awesome. I thought he was so cool and handsome ! I thought he had a great rock voice, too. Sadly, he died of a heart attack at 54 yrs in 2003. Too soon.
Love love love Robert Palmer, RIP way too soon. He was smooth and slick and I loved the little sly glances and looks he would give the camera in his videos, you could tell he was having fun with it all. This video and song were kind of a follow up to a monster hit he had called "Addicted to Love". The video for that one had the pretty girls and sharp suit, I think you'll enjoy that one, too.
Robert had such a great rocking voice. He could flat out belt out a rock song! Contrasted with him dressed in that clean suit and backed up by all those talented pretty women, it's just a cool video.
Ha ha he sings the whole song with a smirk on his face...... he singing about being a rock star. Sneaking Sally Through The Alley is a great song of Robert Palmer.
Ok, India, I've subscribed to your channel and it's the only one I officially subscribe to. Really enjoy your enjoyment of the songs and looove that you don't interrupt the songs every 2 seconds! You listens and get a feel of it and I like it.
A drop of chocolate ( awesome ) love some chocolate with marshmallows. Possible idea for reaction, never seen any one cover this group. ZZ Top. Sharp Dressed Man, or any some that other may have input on.
I love this song. One of the models was Hayley Meyer who I know personally. She used to be my Boss. Lmao She was also in the video for Addicted to Love. Great video girl!!
I miss Robert Palmer. He was a fantastic musician who put a lot of fun into his work. And he put out one of the best albums of the 1980s with "Riptide" from 1985. (Its the album the song "Addicted to Love" came from.) BTW, that guitar player was a dude in a dress. They even shaved his arms.
Agree about "Riptide" and "Fantastic" and "Fun." Guitar: It is the girl, but she's not really playing. Look at her nails... It's a reference to the "Addicted To Love" video where they all pretended to play instruments.
Great reaction! Robert Palmer was so talented and so classy. "Every Kinda People" is another one of his great songs, also check out "Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)" He was taken far too early, RIP :(
I remember wanting to look like these women when I was little. I think this video, and Addicted to Love, came out when I was about 5 or 6 lol. 80's music is the best
I so love Robert Palmer (RIP). I'm very glad you posted him. Would you consider a very different kind of Robert--"Every Kinda People"? Many thanks. I enjoy your videos!
India how r u? Ur right He should of had a little chocolate in there. I remember this back in the day it was something we had never seen before. We were like wow! Take care. God bless
I was in my early 20s when this came out... we played it over and over... but you are right, a drop or 2 of chocolate was rare those days and would have made a nice difference
India's getting her inner butch lesbian on. LOL
Is that a fanfic writing prompt?
Now now dont start questioning this ladies sexual preference. She doing a video review so dont troll her
Naa. I've seen how she looks at Tom Jones.
And how she looks at Elvis, Brad Paisley....besides....who cares, let her go, she is so much fun. GO GIRL.
Seriously? I am a big fan of George Michael, does that make me gay? Shutup!
Hair Metal bands in the 80s: "We've got all the T&A"
Robert Palmer: "Hold my Martini"
Way underrated comment, amazing.
But it's all done in the best possible taste! - Kenny Everett
“She’s so fine theres no tellin where the money went” that line is truth. 💰😂
A perfect lyric.
Spot on....
Best line.... ever!
🧡He was classy. He died way too young.
Loved him with the power station
He was handsome! What happened to him? I always liked this song.
@@jessiem276 He died of a heart attack, in 2003. He was only 54 years-old.
@@MiguelLopez-is9te Thanks! I always wondered what happened to him. He had a totally different sound...I thought. My favorite is "Addicted To Love".
@@jessiem276 What great song. I was 14 when it came out and that music video ruled MTV for 1986.
Rest in peace Robert Palmer...another one who left us too soon.
Looks a lot like Robert Downey Junior the actor
Only 54, way too young for sure :(
He "Worn" himself out, Shwing !!!! Lol : D
@@robertryan7204 I was thinking the same
His smoking killed him , massive heart attack in 2003 after just releasing a new album that year
When M-TV was all about the Music Video.
Mtv used to play music videos???

YES I definitely was being sarcastic. That was sarcasm at its best 😃.
too true, too true.
@@soyyo4154 Can you believe it?
MTV was what we zoned out to right after school in the early to mid 80's.
Jeezus, Im getting old.
I always loved Robert Palmer; he was unique and one of a kind. And he always wore a suit and tie. I sure miss him. He died: 2003 (age 54).
I miss his way of not caring about we like and making us like it~!
80s smokey eyes, blush and lipstick. Every magazine cover looked like them.
They still look this way.
A timeless look...
the look was based on the artwork of Patrick Nagel
They look like...ummm...blow-up dolls? 😉😂
ALSO BIG HAIR AND LOUD COLORS AS WELL
Never mind the identical looking women, I’m looking at how cool Robert is in a suit. RIP Mr Palmer.
he def had coolness. Sexy man
He didn't even need those women dancing around! I would rather have watched him 😀
There is a certain James Bond - Bond Girl vibe going on.
Almost everybody looks better well-dressed. Some people, Robert Palmer was one of them, look better than others.
They look identical because they're wearing the same stuff, same hair and same make up.
Producer: "How many women do you want in the video?"
Robert: "Yes!"
I first heard him in 70's with Bad Case Of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)
Yeah he kinda disappeared for a while and then came back with a string of hits.
That's a great song, too.
You had me down..
A twenty one to zip..
His best song in the 70s was
Every kinda people! One of the best songs of the decade.
@@robmorrison1043 Some Guys Have All The Luck and Some Like it Hot, are also good songs.
I love that song ! A reaction to that would be great .
I used to love wearing dresses like that. I had them in a bunch of different colours. It was a great time to be young.
me too
The most '80s thing about this video is the black nylons :) We wore them them with everything.
Gidday, in 1988 I worked in an electrical appliance store in Brisbane Australia. When this came on the TVs, everybody stopped what they were doing and headed straight to the TV section. This and Expo 88 were the two things I remember from that year
Robert Palmer was a straight MACK. You've got to check out "I Didn't Mean to Turn You On." The epitome of 80s cool.
Richard Sberna 💯
I second that! My fav!
This song and all his are some of my favourites. Love listening to man's voice, RIP Robert Palmer, respects as..
Robert Palmer belongs in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame....he was an exceptional performer
This was a follow up to Addicted to Love. He did the video as a parody of Addicted to Love.
Whether you like him or not, he was THE BEST DRESSED MAN in music. He always dressed sharp.
Sharp Dressed Man
He did two of these videos with the girls like this that I know of. The other was "Addicted to Love". Both great videos. I believe the attempt was to make them "identical"
You forgot the video of the song "I didn't Mean to Turn You On". The Ladies are in that one too.
@@wickedmirage lol I knew I was probably forgetting something:)
@@wickedmirage My FAVE ! ( originally sung by a woman)😉
@@garylindsey5174 LoL, no worries! I only remember cause that's one of my favorite Palmer songs. And at our age we're lucky we remember even half of the 80s ;~)
I don't think they could make this video today. The Diversity Police would have the entire production team in kangaroo court minutes after it aired.
His voice tho.. Loved him. RIP Robert Palmer. Check out his work with Power Station. Some like it hot is a good start.
Diane Ruiz • The Power Station album is a great one. An ‘80s pop supergroup that just knocked it out of the park. 😎
@@gunhedd5375 agree!
I definitely agree!! Can’t forget Bang a Gong (Get it on)!!
Sneakin Sally Through the Alley by Robert Palmer Awesome song
How about the song line “ she’s so fine theres no telling where the money went ‘ 😂💕
best line everrr
Agree, so true, lol.
Addicted To Love
We used to say as kids, " She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the condoms went." We were cheeky kids back in the day.
@Glen Smith I had a brother in law that said the exact same thing when this song first came out lol
R.I.P Robert Palmer...
Thnx for the mammeries bro♡♡♡
Shania Twain's "Man, I feel Like A Woman" was inspired by this video by Robert Palmer.
He was known as “The Gentleman of Rock.”
RIP Robert Palmer
I loved Robert Palmer, his sound and style
Thanks for the memories. This was look in 1988. It was all about pulling your hair back in a tight ponytail, putting on that red MAC lipstick and doing a dark eye look! 😎👍🏻 RIP Robert Palmer, he died too young.
We lost Robert way too young. He was awesome.
Good lord this brought me back... I sure liked the beat and the sound. BUT THE DANCERs in the background... hell yeah. They're all simply irresistible!! 😏

Robert could sing anything. Love the gentleman.
Got to love the 80’s!
First music video I ever watched on the new MTV!
great video reaction--Robert palmer is my favorite of the 80s along with steve winwood
I saw Robert Palmer in 1978 at a State College before he went crazy popular on MTV. Really the first real concert I attended. Band was super tight and it was REALLY REALLY LOUD... Possibly the loudest show I ever heard.
Robert Palmer - so handsome, so suave, and that voice. That Voice. Loved him since the Sneakin’ Sally album. Check out Hey Julia/Sailin’ Shoes/Sneakin’ Sally Through the Alley.
Yeah, he had a spectacular voice and knew how to use it.
In 1988 this was on heavy rotation on MTV. When MTV only had music. The 80's were a lot of fun. It made the 90's even better.
I rarely like videos but great song, handsome guy, beautiful women, clever choreograph; put them all together and you have a video that is impossible to not like.
I was a kid when this came out I remember being at grandparents house and watching MTV and this was my Grandpa’s favorite video lol He would tell me in Spanish “Let me know when that video comes on” my grandma would pinch him and say “NO!!” Lol
Agree and his live shows showed some 'chocolate respect'. Saw him live in the late 80's/early 90's and he was pure soul - one of the best shows ever.
"She's so fine, ain't no telling where the money went". One of the greatest lines ever in rock and roll.
Robert Palmer, cause every girls crazy bout a sharp dressed man! Please listen to his "mercy mercy me" marvin Gaye tribute!
RIP Robert. One of his underrated best songs is well worth a listen, Sneaking Sally Through The Alley. Robert was backed up by the great funk band, The Meters.
Robert Palmer was man. Total class and I loved all of his music. He died way to young on an operating table in Paris.
I feel old she wasn't even born when this video was new and I was way past grown then !
I think being yourself, is simply irresistible.....as for Robert Palmer he becomes the Gentleman's gentleman--nonviolent,non player, just himself.

Ah, the legendary Robert Palmer. RIP... he died too young.
I gotta get up early in the morning,find me another love, what a kick ass rendition
Just after you said, "Robert nasty," he gave a little smirk. Perfect timing! What a voice he had!
"She's so fine. There's no telling where the money went." Best Rock lyric ever!!
One of the Best Rock videos ever. Classy and sexy all rolled into a great song.
LOVE this song ! has to be played LOUD. ha. another one of his hits was "addicted to love" and it's awesome. I thought he was so cool and handsome ! I thought he had a great rock voice, too. Sadly, he died of a heart attack at 54 yrs in 2003. Too soon.
His song Every kind of People is a good listen. He was handsome and had great style. He also was with a group called Tower of Power

I really love your dread locks. You look so good with them. Please, please don't throw them away!
Haven’t heard Robert in a while. We used to dance up on each other to this tune back when!! Fun song.
Great song great video thank God i was there in the 80s when all that good music came out and the music videos where art in them selves xoxo India.
Robert had such a great rocking voice. He could flat out belt out a rock song! Contrasted with him dressed in that clean suit and backed up by all those talented pretty women, it's just a cool video.

Lol, your reactions are hilarious!!! Some do surprise you . I enjoy watching your channel
perfect video, music etc etc etc Rip Robert hi from Argentina.
Ha ha he sings the whole song with a smirk on his face...... he singing about being a rock star. Sneaking Sally Through The Alley is a great song of Robert Palmer.
This video was N-A-U-G-H-T-Y back in 1980.
Love your reaction to it ❤️
Addicted to love is another great song by him!
His videos were the favorites of every red blooded boy back in the day. Simply smokin'
He had class. Wearing a fine suit, no other artist did this in their videos.

"Every Kind of People" was my favorite Robert Palmer songs. He is the definition of "British Soul".
Robert did his thang back in the day!! May he Rip 💖💖💖💖
Robert Palmer is rock legend... 😍🤘🌹

Girl you are HILARIOUS!
His voice is so distinct and rich.

Robert has always been a class act.
Hard to believe you never heard this song. Wow!!!
RIP Robert...passed way too soon..but certainly left his legacy in his songs!
These videos were quite risqué back in the day too. Awesome!
Us girls looked so good in the 80s classy hair . Slicked back bun .
The year was 1985, the song addicted to love. I watched it a thousand times.
Robert Palmer is Brilliant !!

I remember going to a friends house to watch the premiere of this video on MTV. It was an event.
Addicted to Love
India! You are absolutely my new favorite reaction host. 👍🏻
Robert Palmer, this cat got swag....big time. Hail to the 80s
Addicted too love
A beautiful woman is a wonderful thing to behold...
His video for Addicted to love is great like this with the all female band!
The "Addicted to Love" video was better than this one, I thought.
