Robert Palmer

The lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes

I've always agreed with the sentiments of Robert Smith of the Cure who, when leaving the stage to give way to Robert Palmer at a festival many years ago, said "**** Robert Palmer"! Wise words I always thought!
Love the photo!

That said... I did rather like rest of his band members on this particular track.

I loved that track...used to be one of my favourite friday/saturday night playlists together with the rest of that album before going out!

Bryan Ferry/ Roxy Music...Huey Lewis...they were the days...

I have to admit that there is one Robert Palmer track that I like - Johnny & Mary. Keep that under your hat though please - not good for my cred!
Sorry mods - he started it!
