Singer Robert Palmer Dies
Rocker's Hits Included 'Addicted To Love'
The music world is mourning the loss of rocker Robert Palmer.
Palmer died Friday in Paris of a heart attack, according to his manager.
Palmer was 54.
According to Britain's Sky News, Palmer had been on a two-day break with his partner Mary Ambrose following a television recording session in Britain.
The British singer recorded such hits as "Addicted to Love," "Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor Doctor)" and "Every Kinda People," and became a star in the 1980s with his slick videos.
Palmer's videos for "Addicted to Love" and "Simply Irresistible" featured a sharply dressed Palmer and a bevy of attractive women -- all dressed the same and
wearing the same make-up.
Palmer also formed a group called Power Station with two members of the '80s super-group Duran Duran. They scored three top-10 hits.

Once again I was shocked to hear about yet another death of a great entertainer when my daddy called me a few minutes after I came to work this mornin' to tell me about it. IMO, Robert was juss too d
n coo' when it came to his music and videos. I'ma have to blast "Addicted to Love" and his remake of the System's "You're In My System" when I get home because these were my two MOST favorite songs by him. R.I.P. Robert. You'll be missed but not forgotten!
