The sweetness you can see, a boyish smirk with a shimmer of sensuality. Michael Hutchence gave me the same vibe. Both beautiful men, big talent and taken far too early. Robert’s body of work is prolific and most of the good stuff no one has ever heard, unless they get down into the weeds of Blues and Soul. I keep Robert’s music in my rotation and on shuffle and regret never knowing any music other than what was given to me on MTV before he passed.

Robert Palmer was the James Bond of music

he was so attractive and a beautiful soul

A genius who left too soon .

Absolutely the best looking man ever in rock, blues and soul, and the epitome of class.

I've never seen this before. he is so intelligent, so nice. and that smooth voice of his...I could listen to him forever💖

Class act; decent and humble. During college, I worked as a "red shirt" handling concert security needs. In late 1976, handled dressing room security for Palmer's Boston concert. No entourage, other than the driver and an A&R rep who was with him. The most unassuming rock star I ever met, on par with James Taylor. No drama, just pure class.

This beautiful, talented and wonderful man wrote, produced, sang and enjoyed music to the maximum. There is no way that I can listen to Robert sing anything and not find myself moving and singing along with his music. If he wrote it or someone else wrote the lyrics. This man is solid gold and should be inducted into the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME!!!! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!! RIP ROBERT, AND THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU!!!

Cooler than jittery Bowie, more stylish than pretentious Ferry and nicer than your average rock star. He was a great singer and a gifted songwriter. He painted from a broad pallette, and I think he liked the fact he couldn't be pinned down to one style. Sadly missed.

Beautiful man,beautiful voice and beautiful personality.

A very honest, and genuine guy. Sadly missed.

So humble. A breath of fresh air.

hey this guy was a beautiful human being not to mention all his great talent, I miss him first time I heard him was in 1978 every kind of people and got hooked now I am pretty sure he sings among angels

Robert Palmer was ridiculously good looking with a G*d given voice ! He is one of my greatest influences . Wish he was still around .

Every interview I've ever heard with Robert Palmer has been totally worth listening to. He was really as genuine as they come. When he did the Addicted to Love video with the pasty faced models, etc. he was tongue in cheek and knew EXACTLY what he was doing. An amazing vocal talent who left this world wayyy too soon.

My girlfriend once said Robert Palmer was so good looking he probably got up in the morning, looked in the mirror and went "yep." She was right! He was also a phenomenal talent. Such a shame he's gone.

Charming and handsome 😍

He's so handsome and had an amazing voice 😊

He is just heavenly.

These interviews are stunning and they never get old. My husband and business partner had the honor of touring with Robert Palmer during the promotion of Don't Explain, released in 1990. He was very kind, a true gentleman with so much class. I was already a huge fan dating back to Johnny & Mary, Clues from 1980, so I totally flipped out when we got the word that he wanted Terrance's band to go on tour with him for a month in 1991, in the US. We were devastated when he died and still miss him, but still listen to his music all the time.

Robert Palmer was an anomaly, an enigma in the music industry. He was loved and and admired, I don't think he was given enough credit to his craft. He definitely had a stand-alone style. A style that was emulated by numerous artists. He did it first really. I wonder what he would be up to now, what a loss. He is in every corner of my youth, along with Micheal Hutchence.

often. beautiful creatures exist in this world for a brief time. Amazing if you appreciate them while they breath.

We love you, Mr. Palmer. And we miss you...

Just smooth. Classic, gentlemanly, suave, humble and unassuming..........and smoking hot to boot!! Lord have mercy. I miss him. He talks about that "singer with a voice or sound that comes along once in generation"........he was describing himself.

I could look at his face and listen to him forever 🥰

As a Yorkshireman I’d like to think we’re all chuffed to have him as a fellow County-man. Gone far too soon, what a talented and charismatic man.

I can't imagine this man ever being upset, mad, or evil...In every interview I've seen he seems like just a genuine gentleman. Pure class.

Such a noble human being. I miss him and his talent very much.

Thank you cameraman (or camera woman) for those zoom in close-ups.

Total gentleman.

I have always loved this man ....his music give me goosebumps.....

his eyes were so intense. ❤

Very lovely looking man. He spoke so well. Easy to fall for it would seem

“I don’t think soul has a color” love it.

I'm still in love, this will never end...

Gosh I love this guy... Miss him.

Gorgeous good looking guy oozing class. Lovely voice and accent too.

I really was surprised and sad when he passed away ..😢I really love his music and voice ❤

Wonderful guy who didn't take fame seriously and enjoyed himself and loved the giants of music like Otis. Rock on folks rock on!

This is incredible... never seen it before.. Robert sir... you were iconic in my childhood and will never be forgotten.. I prayed for your soul today listening to you sing... I feel bad for the young people who never got a chance to hear you... you will live on forever in our thoughts... until we see you again..

Intelligent, sensitive man with a wonderful musical legacy. Such a shame he's still not around today. I can only dream! X rip Robert xx

Very intimate. His voice gives me goosebumps!

Robert was indeed beautiful, talented and very appealing. I miss him so much. Rest in Heaven beautiful prince.

Damn British men are handsome! Robert exuded class, sexiness and a great voice. Love RP u are missed !

I thought it was so weird how the interviewer asked Mr Palmer not to smoke and he immediately put out the cigarette. I've never seen that. Usually when a musician lights up during an interview no one says anything.Robert Palmer is such a class act

Beautiful man and a huge talent.

it's amazing how many people recognized his humility and classyness, to support the world's take on Robert, i saw him play in a tiny venue on the island of Guam, he just scored #1 with the hit 'addicted to love' ' and yet with that fame, he blessed us with an incredible performance! Classy just doesn't describe this man enough, to me he was a sort of a philanthropist who gitfed the people with LOVE RIP Robert🙏💖🙏

ABSOLUTELY CLASS, OMG HE IS THE BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!! HE IS TIMLESS

I love how open-minded and enthusiastic he is about all kinds of music...not an envious, defensive person trying to narrowly define what is "good" and "bad" like insecure music aficionados running rampant on youtube.

RP is one of the most talented and insightful artists of Rock. Immense talent! hard to believe he died so young. RIP

He's so gentle and humble and tender, it makes my heart ache. I admire his intelligence, introspection and incredible, diverse talent. And of course, he is/was, utterly, utterly beautiful ! Such a gift to the world. May he rest in peace. Thank you for posting ! :)

So softly spoken and intelligent. Would have loved to hear him do an audio book, that Yorkshire twang is so lovely.

When he says Otis Redding, Lena Horne, Billi Holiday, Arabic singers, African percussionists, Miles and James Brown are the ones he listens to your are hearing a very musically knowledgeable cat. His music was hip just as he was. Loved Robert Palmer.

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

How beautiful guy he is ! miss him💓💓💓

Gorgeous man. So sexy. He is so, so missed in the music world and passed away far too soon. RIP Sir xxx

HOT!! I loved him & now miss him & his style. Class act in his suits, yum.

20 years gone and we're still loving you❤

Great accent you can hear a man that takes in all his influences, gentle spirit , greatly missed artist .

I was a fan of Robert Palmer from his sneaking Sally through the alley Days, and saw him in concert in Santa Barbara, CA back in the 80's. Man, I love this guy's music!

What a gent and unique talent. Very sadly missed.

Schade das es den Typen nicht mehr gibt...absolut sympathisch

RIP Robert Palmer

beautiful, beautiful . . . God always gathers in the GOOD ones for Himself! I was fortunate enough to see him live in the early 80's. I was mezmorized. I adore this man and his wonderful music.

Robert Palmer belongs in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame

I'm always surprised over and over again when I find out he was British. This guy had the most American sounding singing voice ever

I had a massive crush on him. I saw him in concert only once. What a class act in every way, I left that concert floating.

Robert was on the verge of rock stardom at the time of this interview. The 'next record project' he was referring to towards the end of the interview would be none other than 'Riptide' -- the one that would make him a household name with "Addicted To Love".

Honest classy and gorgeous

❤ Thank you, Sir. Much prescious information you gave us. It was a pleasure listening and watching.🌹✨✨✨

Just wonderful to see him being so attentive, humble and polite. He really shows a lot of respect for the journalists where he could have just taken the routine-answer-talk-a-lot-say-nothing exit...

wow he is such a doll...even with a dam cigarette in his hand! 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝

Fantastic singer , songwriter, saw him live in Leicester once . Taken far too young RIP. Spoke to him briefly once after that Leicester gig, he said he was a songwriter and not a singer .

One of my favourite tunes is mercy mercy me, I grew up listening to it, his voice is soulful and untouchable.

Wow, he seemed so nice! Loved how he mentioned all his musical influences, with such fondness. Such a Cool Guy! I’m off to listen to Go West and Shalamar now, for those voice comparisons. 😀

He was so handsome

I'm glad I got all his albums from "Sneaking Sally Through the Alley" through "Riptide" and the first "Addictions" album. Great stuff!

My heart almost stopped at 6.13 when he turned his gaze directly to the camera and smiled....*hits pause

He was just fabulous. He had it all. I detected a bit of embarrassment at being asked to stop smoking. I can't stand that smell, & it KILLED this gorgeous man. But, I wanted to Nurse him when he looked uncomfortable.

I love this man! If she didn't want him to smoke she should have told him beforehand not during the interview to demean him. I would have walked out of that interview for her being so disrespectful! It wasn't like today. Back then people smoked everywhere.

Incredible passion for his craft, and mesmerizing talent. ❤

Sad he's gone. I never even knew, till today, gosh, here I am enjoying his music, did not even know he had passed. Gosh, and handsome too, Wow 😔😢💝 R.I.P. Robert

This is a cool interview. Palmer was a great fan of Soul and R&B music.

Im in my 40's, during this period 1985 I was a teen, all the facts about smoking was just beginning no warnings on cigarettes back then. I chose to smoke and Marlboro was $1.25 pack. The statistics were not in and it was pleasurable to smoke these Nicotine sticks especially with spirits. So Palmer was no doubt a victim of BIG TOBACCO. I stopped in the 90's, But I must say most of the 80's I enjoyed every cigarette I smoked. RIP Robert Palmer.

He talks about Otis the way I love him. And many others. Especially the styles of music he appreciates which is seemingly never static and like a wall builds like a wall brick by brick... I adore this, and I shall. This man was very intriguing, sexy and wonderfully himself because of himself. Extraordinarily unique and humble person. Brilliant example of a man. A real man. God Bless you, Robert. God Bless.

I feel like my heart has just been stolen.......

Robert Palmer’s interviews were awesome. Robert was intelligent, creative,and had a unique voice! Addictive to love and some like it hot were some of his best.

Robert was very honest about his musical influences and he was a very talented songwriter in his own right. It is a great shame that he is not with us today. Saw his Dominion Tottenham Court Road Live show and he brought the house down. He had great craft and picked the right musicians to show his songs in the best light. A sad loss. Thanks for posting this interview.

Talented singer, great voice! Addicted to love to this day is a great song!

His hair is amazing !

Miss him, so handsome

What A Great Guy!

Ii love his clean lifestyle and clean cut image and dressed in suits I just love him and sings too. He’s so blessed and talented Rest In Peace Robert

I fell in love with him at 16 (76) with sneaking sally. Fantastic music which I still have. So upset when he. Died. This interview just showed what a marvellous person he was with such. Intelligence

RP was so ahead of his time. Known as the executive rocker. He was a class act in every way. Sorely missed and they don't make them like him anymore

Seemed like a very nice respectful humble guy

Robert Palmer -All Class . Way too good for the lot of them.

A fascinating interview, its just a pity we cant hear the interviewers questions clearly. Roberts answers are well presented and gives us a superb insight as to his musical upbringing and thoughts. The man was so talented and comes across as a thoroughly decent chap !

He is lovely

Such humility and soul
