Your mind IS NOT YOUR OWN

[@Pokyhawk]

The women in the video are models hired to portray a band. The makeup was done to make the women look like manikins to indicate the way some men see all women as "objects" and not individuals (you'll notice the same technique used in the "Simply Irresistible" video). ***edit: Stupid me. I named this video when I meant to say "Simply Irresistible". lol

[@mikkj1]

The models all looked bored (S&M? Do we need to talk?). Palmer said, in an interview, that their "look" was a comment on how the media tries to force all women into the same "look". Hence, the same outfits, the same look on their faces, etc.

So when this video came out - I was over at my best friend's house and he and I were talking about the lovely young ladies in the video (the way teenage boys would) - he remarked that they look like they "wanted something..." just then his older sister came around the corner from the kitchen and said - "yes.... a cheeseburger, she wants a cheeseburger...."

Robert Palmer was one of the greatest Rock singers ever. He was equal parts Rock, Soul, R&B, and he could croon an Easy Listening tune, too. The man was the total package, and very unique. Please react to his very first big hit "Sneaking Sally Through The Alley" all the way back in 1974, as well as "You're Gonna Get What's Coming" and "Every Kinda People" from 1978, and "Bad Case Of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)" from 1979.

They interviewed the models ??? .. Never heard of that happening before .. But I believe what you read would be true .. Robert was apparently a true gentleman.

[@jamesbuckingham.2935]

Don't think he met them. He was filmed separately and it was superimposed on them playing.

@@wayne_twentyfive Saw him many times appearing with his first band the Mandrakes At 17 he was often better than the act they were supporting. Jim Hendrix and The Who were two acts they supported who rated the Mandrakes highly. In those days he was Allen Palmer. He changed to his middle name to avoid confusion when he joined the Alan Bown set. Spoke to him on quite a few occasions. Was always a baby magnet even with lasses whom didn't know he was in a group.

The models were loosely based upon the art work of Patrick Nagel, who is one of my favorite artists. He designed the cover to the Duran Duran album Rio. His most famous work is the woman with sunglasses that was in like every store in the mid to late 80s. Robert Palmer is one of my all time favorite singers. His solo stuff before this (like Bad Case of Loving You and Clues,) and his solo stuff after this (like Every Kinda People) are amazing, and his stint as lead singer of the super group Power Station (that featured 2 members of Duran Duran...how's that for a call back) produced a great album with killer songs. ~Be Blessed

[@Wise-Lady-La-Aura]

Robert Palmer’s “Addicted to Love” - hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 35 years ago. That’s a perfect pop song. A simple beat and a killer guitar riff. Palmer himself, the song’s sole credited writer, who was one of the best British R&B singers of his generation but keeps it relatively low-key here, delivering a suave and soulful vocal that, on the chorus, he practically turns into a percussion instrument (“Ah--to-love”). Even his outfit in the video conveys restraint: Wearing a starched white shirt, black tie and high-waisted black pants, he looks like a businessman whose idea of casual is taking off his jacket. This number 1 song is best known for its brilliantly idiotic video, which features the singer performing in front of five stunning mannequin-like models bearing vapid facial expressions and holding musical instruments that they’re not even pretending to mime convincingly. They can’t dance either, and only occasionally move in time with the song’s rhythm. It’s utterly ridiculous (Palmer’s face throughout the video shows he knows it, too) and absolutely iconic at the same time.

This video was him kind of poking fun at the pop video scene by making everyone look the same. He doubled down on that in "Simply Irresistible." Now more than ever, again requesting Robert Palmer's "Sailing Shoes/Hey Julia/Sneaking Sally Through The Alley" also known as Trilogy off his first solo album kzbin.info/www/bejne/fX_aaYhqlqiaoKc Thanks for this one!

[@danithompson1693]

Yeah, I can't even sing "Addicted to Love" when I hear Robert Palmer. I only hear "Addicted to Spuds".

[@johnny85er]

I hope he does it! 🤣

[@MichaelScheele]

Absolutely! Weird Al Yankovic is always a must.

I was 29 when this came out and I loved the music and the video. I'm now in my 60s and I still do :)
