Your Lights Are On, But You're Not Home

In the 80's, an Englishman by the name of Robert Palmer hit it big both with solo hits and as part of a group known as Power Station. We've already seen some Power Station videos in The Excellent 80's, so today, tomorrow, and the next day we bring you three of his biggest solo hits. This was probably his most famous solo hit and probably one of the most famous and most parodied videos in the MTV era. Here he is with a lot of guys' dream band in his song and video "Addicted to Love"...
