Synopsis

Robert Palmer performs "Bad Case Of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)" onstage in a sharp suit, delivering the song with his trademark cool control while the performance is broken up by footage from several of his other music videos. The montage draws on Palmer's visual identity across the 1980s, juxtaposing his live presence with clips from "Addicted To Love," "Simply Irresistible," "Looking For Clues," "Riptide," and other productions. An alternate version uses only the stage performance.
