[@musicman9709]

That's one cool white boy

[@sianwarwick633]

He slay it, piece by piece

[@davecoalwood9487]

He was a proper cool as fuck bloke. There's shit loads of us in The UK- we invented Cool as Fuck. 😂😂😂

[@bmw3842]

That is David Frank on keyboards from The System and also he produced this version .

[@LauraMolina-PaintDiva]

I saw him during this tour and he and the band were nearly perfection.

[@joannjohnson2481]

He can jam a cover of anybody song he did this justice

[@davecoalwood9487]

This is Quality.

[@kayjay111111]

I would give this man 89 babies. RIP Robert. Miss your voice, your style, your soul, your class.

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!

[@bmw3842]

I loved Robert Palmer .So full of energy .Robert always brings it . This is what's missing from today's music .

[@sonnie1979]

R.I.P. Robert! Love your music!

[@mirnaotto2927]

One of my favorites 🎶 songs of him. Why decent, talented, marvelous person leave us so soon??? .

[@lorievogel3953]

😢

[@jojoz]

what a voice...they don't make them like him anymore, such a rare jewel he was....

[@marianievessnow6567]

This Is One Of My Favorite Performances Of RP So Much Soul.I Love Him So Much Truly Missed❤

[@audiotiendavmv2084]

Oh my goodness!!! The original from The System was near perfection; palmer`s studio version was impressive, but this is top notch! Just when you think a song couldn`t sound better you find this...Good Lord!!! What a gem!!!!

[@allisonewe]

wow!!! i miss robert. i love him forever! thanks for sharing this,

[@rickywhitmore1965]

1983 a big soul hit respect to the original version by the system equally as good

[@UniqueCharacterActor]

Fantastic RP at His best.. Such an Awesome musician..RIP Friend, it was those cigarettes, may have helped with that deep voice, but we lost you Too Soon.. Well we all got our habits, Thanks

[@R3dOnR3d]

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.

[@zovalentine7305]

Rest in powerful peace 🙏 Robert Palmer 19 January 1949 ~ 26 September 2003⚘

[@crankfotton]

Dude... It's been 20 years

[@jameschavez6400]

I don’t know if in his personal life-but on stage robert Palmer is a credit to his race,gender&species💔😥❤️

[@laurakenney225]

always understated. always looking great and always at the top of his game. he looks likes he's having fun, which I LOVE. what a gift for those of us who still adore Robert💝

[@victoriadodds3953]

Whew! Great song, love Robert Palmer live. Thank god for music videos. One fine, elegant man.

[@josephromano6825]

Robert was very creative , great singer, and sharply dressed. Was great with the power station and his solo career.

[@TribixFilms]

These days Robert was so excited and hot, it was so cool to see him sing

[@spreadthelove77]

Has there ever been a more 80's bassline...?

[@cantaloupe42]

Robert's voice is even better live than on recording. What a terrific performer.

[@horseridingdoglover]

Robert looks and sounds amazing. Thank you for this.

[@margaretmartell5704]

I remember seeing Robert Palmer in the eighties at the Orpheum in Boston Love and miss you. This video is super!

[@jbentley-xt8oi]

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.

[@jojoz]

one thing that made him so classy is he didn't bump and grind and act vulgar, just came across as extremely sexy and didn't even try to be love you RP rip so saddddd I love him so much

[@JerseyGirlForLife609]

JoJo ModSquad ....Amen...

[@XI_Daisy_XI]

Exactly!!! Pure sex appeal.😍 ✨rip✨💔

[@robram2025]

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

[@jojoz]

sexiest classiest man alive back them

[@chenoah2010]

JoAnne Z .he was a good looking guy.charismatic to.loved this man's music from day one.not fair that he died so young...

[@chinkogakusaizo]

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!.

[@AnnieLennox1954]

Ooh, sweaty. So very hot.

[@zarymahmud9084]

My all time favorite singer.. rip rp.. see u again..

[@klaasklapsigaar1081]

Even when RP's hair is all scrambled, it's still looking good. How did he do that!?

[@victoriadodds3953]

Robert Palmer was one fine looking man, sexy, elegant and boy could really rock it. This live video is fantastic.

[@XI_Daisy_XI]

Suave®? 😉 I totally agree, he was a fox. 😍

[@syrkaros5815]

He was too handsome to look bad

[@dinopadilla1662]

Robert Palmer was an Excellent Musician!!!

[@sigsigsputcat1946]

This is crazy good.

[@jopipes9963]

Palmer's inner rhythm was by far super one of the coolest. He could belt with such ecstasy.

[@konge1]

Heaven...........

[@millholmehouse]

He was just so good!

[@keithybee48]

Withthe exception of the "Riding High" album, EVERYTHING that Robert recorded was of the utltimate high quality. He just had an ear for rythym, harmonies and a killer-beat. Take, for example, Johnny and Mary, or, even Addicted to Love!! AS for the daft comments about his sartorial elegance, he ALSO sounded just as good on the radio!!!!

[@krisj827]

Was there not one cover that Robert Palmer couldn't rock?

[@dancurrie1987]

F*cking yes!! Legend.

[@kathykitten6]

Beautiful Performer with a Fantastic Voice

[@Alphaflight912]

white dude was very soulful....i like this

[@thomfmify]

Music live system: Robert Palmer: OMG!!!! You are in my system!!!

[@she_sings_delightful_things]

😍 Man....love the suit. Him and Phil Collims had a similar style going on in the 80s. Gorgeous man.

[@bmw3842]

Also David Bowie & Falco

[@robonez]

This is a brutal reminder of how much todays pop music stinks! Robert Palmer was a true soulman, a great singer with feel and powerful delivery, and those are real musicians!!! These days nobody with any musical sense and half a brain can stand to watch mtv and all that bullshit more than 2 minutes without losing their lunch.

[@susaneshraghi7124]

agree, this is really crazy good xx

[@suriman]

yes you are Robert P. You ´re the MAN

[@posttronics]

Thanks so much for the concert vids- great stuff!!

[@martinreilly2752]

Pure gold!

[@hermitmcdermitt999]

WOW! Awesome version of System...sweltering hot! Phwoooar

[@DHudelson]

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.

[@peterenjosevanwingerden7406]

R.I.P Robert you the best

[@cherylhungerford3337]

He does an amazing version of 'RESPECT' too!!!

[@timecomputer]

Its a black and white song. David Frank was white. Mic Murphy was black. Not that colour matters.

[@eduardogonzaleznieto729]

Que chingon concierto del señor elegancia Robert Palmerb

[@Cerph]

Beyond amazing.

[@mcbloomsss]

This man can sing anything...

[@Wildcock23]

[@twosie7661]

He's in mine too!

[@BarbaraT-gu1qq]

He really loved what he did! Pure JOY and smilesss! 😁🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@bmw3842]

This man along with Falco are two of the baddest to ever do it .Such cool.swagger ,confidence .They're badass . Nobody will ever be like Robert or Falco.

[@theguyyoyo]

Falco sucks... I'll take Chris Rea or Bryan Ferry

[@Frauenhaus]

​@@theguyyoyoAll of them.

[@nettiebaby45]

OHMYGOD!! That was wonderful!! This live version of System rocks!Thanks rrn3000 for posting it.

[@alexl3208]

Song of David Frank and Mic Murphy of the System

[@peermenkens6622]

in 1981 at Roskilde Festival, Denmark. What a concert.

[@cnfuzz]

Impossible , the record from the System that he covers here came out in 1983

[@ayowiththebeatbox3894]

Fantastic cover.

[@Vivenne1st]

@fredthedorfdorfman don't get it people saying he couldn't dance U R CRAZY!!!!

[@poppyorsini9175]

They were on fire ! Great performance great song. RIP

[@ChrisOmfHare1]

Always liked RP - and Dony Wynn grooved those tunes DEEP.

[@bridgettholman4074]

He's awesome but a lot of people don't realize that this song was original was from the group The System. Look it up!

[@Mo_Ketchups]

Bridgett Holman ... This is one of those rare posts that make the comment sections a valuable resource! I thought I’d known about every cover by every relevant artist no matter how deep or obscure the track. But THIS? Nope! First I’ve heard of it. ✌️👏👏 Palmer’s cover isn’t even a MICRO-departure from the original, and so close in release time! It’s like Cameron Crowe making Vanilla Sky while the original was still in THEATERS. Great post! Thank you!

[@seymourfroggs]

@@Mo_Ketchups Different band from his earlier one. The drummer in the earlier band was vastly more in tune.

[@allseeingi]

David Frank from the System also did the keyboards for Robert’s version .

[@seymourfroggs]

Bridgett (or anyone) - who was the young drummer in about 1980, say, with the Scandanavian tour?

[@mattingly234ever]

he did a bunch of covers of 80's R&B/Boogie joints. I think this one is the best

[@LodoGrdzak]

Hot tune.

[@margieo8687]

No..YOU are in My System😀

[@lorievogel3953]

❤indeed

[@BarbaraBurrows-z2e]

Always loved him....

[@MsMissy314]

Thank you for posting!!!

[@honeylove7678]

JAM, YOUR THE MAN! RIP

[@thomfmify]

Robert exploding. This will last for all times. One of the very important artists of the 20th century, look at John Lennon!!!!

[@pamdavis1253]

Another goodie by da man...

[@iluvmyboba]

His version of this song was not bad. I have truly heard some awful remakes and this is not one of 'em.

[@honchomanuel1996]

OOOOOOOOOOOH!

[@peachyllama722]

Was this 81 or 83? I was too young to completely remember, but I do know this was the first track of his that steared me in

[@Frauenhaus]

83, I think.

[@cnfuzz]

He did a lot of covers , so is this one.

[@Nombre824]

Love it...love it
